GOP Candidate Said Elites Drink Blood, Sell 'Baby Body Parts' After Abortion

“There’s a ton of money involved in freshly harvested organs. There’s so much evidence out there.”

https://www.vice.com/en/article/epzkdp/kristina-karamo-qanon-blood-body-parts



Kristina Karamo, the Trump-backed GOP candidate for Michigan secretary of state, once expressed support in 2020 for one of QAnon’s most outlandish conspiracies: that elites drink the blood of children and ‘sell baby body parts’ after abortions.

VICE News obtained an audio recording of Karamo’s appearance on a QAnon podcast called Redpill News just weeks after the 2020 election, where she said that abortion is “child sacrifice” and boosted false claims that the rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, were “Antifa posing as Trump supporters.”

“If you go to the Satanic temple website, they have an entire five-minute video explaining why abortion is a religious ritual,” Karamo said in the interview, which also featured Rudy Giuliani associate Melissa Carone. “They literally say that it is a sacrifice, it is a religious ritual for them to have an abortion, it is sick. And as you mentioned, the baby body parts… they sell the organs. There’s a ton of money involved in freshly harvested organs. There’s so much evidence out there.”

This is one of QAnon’s most extreme beliefs, that members of the global elite traffic children in order to harvest a chemical from their blood that they use to live longer. Karamo became a minor star in the GOP after she claimed to have witnessed voter fraud during the 2020 election while acting as a poll challenger in Detroit. Her affidavit was used as part of a lawsuit brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton that challenged the election results in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The lawsuit was thrown out by the Supreme Court in December 2020.

Reptile Rethug brains must possess a deep reservoir of depravity in order to conjure up this magnitude of shit.

would be chased out of the party and relegated to some lunatic fringe, but now the GOP is the lunatic fringe.

trying to come up with something that is so crazy, so outlandish, so divorced from reality that the sponge heads won’t believe it.

So far he has failed, so he continues to escalate.

It sure isn't his sedentary lifestyle or atrocious eating habits.

If such groups exist, they're most certainly like Dark Money itself: 85% Republican.

That must be why the elites need the big money tax cuts to afford such an expensive chemical.

But, but, but that doesn't sound like democrat elites.

that in about 95 percent of all abortions, these "freshly harvested organs" have about thirty cells in them. Each.

I'm pretty sure there's no market for organs you need a $25,000 microscope to find.
