‘QAnon Shaman’ adopts bizarre English accent when confronted on Jan 6
BBC
The infamous “Shaman” who stormed the Capitol on January 6 wearing a horned fur hat has hit out at Donald Trump and people can’t believe it.
Known as the QAnon Shaman, Jake Angeli-Chansley was arrested for his participation in the 6 January 2021 riots during which he stormed the Capitol building in Washington.
He was later sentenced to 41 months in prison and was among several of the convicted Jan 6 rioters to be pardoned by Trump when he re-entered office in January 2025.
Now, it seems the once staunch Trump supporter and ally had turned his back. In a tweet, he posted: “Oh yeah & F**k Israel! And F**k Donald Trump!”
It comes as many high-profile members of Trump’s MAGA base have criticised Trump over the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein files scandal, including Marjorie Taylor-Greene and Elon Musk.
“Trump lost the guy who entered the Capitol and went to jail for him,” one person on X/Twitter responded to the Shaman’s change of heart.
“The Shaman is even over this President. Sometimes I Love America!” someone else said.
Someone else said: “This is Wild…The MAGA Base has Completely Shifted away from Trump.”
Another argued: “If he losing the J6 people he really (has) no support base left.”
One person wrote: “OMG. What a time to be alive.”
Someone else commented: “MAGA unravelling fast.”
One person argued: “The Epstein files may have saved America.”
