She has been outspoken in her opposition to social distancing lockdowns put in place to try to slow the spread of the coronavirus. “Our freedom and our Constitutional rights are on the ballot this November and Republicans just sent a loud and clear message that they want me there to fight for them,” Boebert said in a statement issued from her campaign. In May, Boebert appeared on a right-wing online show and was asked what she thought of the “Q movement.” “I am familiar with that,” Boebert replied, smiling. “Everything I’ve heard of Q — I hope that this is real.

The narrative is fed by cryptic posts on internet message boards from an anonymous person or persons named Q, who followers believe to be a high-ranking intelligence official, or possibly even Trump himself. Popular YouTube and social media pages promulgate and analyze Q’s vague and largely inscrutable messages, turning the obsession into something of a game for many followers.
