Next week, it would be somebody else's rally some other city or state wants to stop.

As Jefferson said, sunshine is the best disinfectant for horseshoe.

5. Wonder where they're going to have it...

guess there's no rush in getting a convention center. The heavy hitters are going to have to shell out dough for the rank and file, to get anywhere close to 20,000.

Initially, the convention was being held at Gilley's, which is a multi-purpose entertainment and dining complex in Dallas, but the venue backed out.

Organizers won't say where the events are being held now, but have booked a block of rooms at the Omni hotel in downtown Dallas.
The Omni hotel says, "They provide public accommodations for many organizations and does not reflect or indicates an endorsement."

16. I thought this thing was dead after Gilly's backed out. It still sounds fishy

that they've booked a block of rooms at the Omni (how many is a block? 10, 100?) but haven't got an actual place to have the "convention." Nobody will talk about where and nutjob Allen West who's supposed to speak won't respond to press inquiries. Which is odd as he doesn't miss too many opportunities to hold forth the crazy.

I'll be very surprised if there is much of anything that happens.

Or how legitimate. The counter seems to be moving when you click into the site but stops at 20,180 and that's it.

It is well known that Qanon was heavily represented at the 1/6 insurrection. Many of the ones who are still at large will attend this event...and, with a little bit of luck and some judicious use of facial recognition software, the FBI should be able to arrest at least 75 to 100 insurrectionists in one weekend.
