This lawsuit makes some blatantly false claims. Contrary to what this lawsuit claims, the Flynns absolutely took a QAnon oath last July. In June, "Q" had posted the exact same oath that the Flynns recited in that video. "Q" also wrote, "take the oath."

And like the Flynns, others subsequently took the same oath on video to follow the request made by "Q" & then posted it online.

Darlene Swaffar, a QAnon-supporting congressional candidate in Florida, a few days ago tweeted a video of herself taking the QAnon oath. She is the 3rd known congressional candidate to do so, alongside candidates in Hawaii & Oregon.

It is also dishonest to act like the Flynn family does not have other connections to QAnon and that they took this QAnon oath in a vacuum. For example, Joseph Flynn has gone on QAnon shows & tweeted the QAnon slogan multiple times. https://thedailybeast.com/michael-flynns-family-is-at-war-with-each-other-over-qanon

Earlier this week, Michael Flynn's brother Joseph Flynn did an interview with a major QAnon account, Sean Cordicon. In the interview Cordicon also suggested he has spoken with Michael Flynn.

Additionally, the lawyer this lawsuit mentions that "notified CNN that the Flynn family were not followers of QAnon" is Sidney Powell, who has herself gone on multiple QAnon shows, amplified QAnon accounts, & cited QAnon-connected figures & claims in her election fraud lawsuits.

And Michael Flynn's clear association with QAnon has not stopped either. Here's him just 2 weeks ago.

Andy Kaufman sued NBC for $200 million with designs on turning it into a wrestling network. Every bit as legit, too, if not less so.
