The QAnon Shaman Was Freed And Immediately Posted A Deranged Rant Uncle Baby Billy From ‘The Righteous Gemstones’ Would Be Proud Of

After spending the past few months in a halfway house in Arizona, Jacob Chansley (a.k.a. the QAnon Shaman) has officially been released. Thanks to his highly identifiable outfit, which has already become a go-to pop culture reference, Chansley was easily arrested for his participation in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol building. Since his arrest, Chansley has denounced both Donald Trump and QAnon, and he reportedly maintained a low profile while serving his shortened sentence.

Not anymore.

The newly released Chansley has already taken to Twitter where he’s already dabbling in conspiracy theories. He’s also leaning back into his Shaman persona as evidenced by his first tweet, which included a GIF of Chansley in his infamous outfit inserted into The Dark Knight scene where Heath Ledger’s Joker is hanging out of a police car.

Things did not get better from there as Chansley shared a bizarre Righteous Gemstones-esque video filled with QAnon-esque vibes and ramblings about the Buddha.

But the latter, darker half of Chansley’s video contained several veiled references to his continuing quest for “the truth”—and an ongoing fight against “global corruption” that echoes the language of conspiracy theories like QAnon.

“The final lesson I will share is the power that we each wield when we live by and speak truth,” Chansley said. “Speaking the truth can topple corrupt empires and free whole nations that have been enslaved by illusions. The Buddha once said that three things cannot be hidden long: sun, moon and truth.”

In a comment to The Daily Beast, Chansley’s attorney, Al Watkins, warned that his client’s rehabilitation “will involve a lifetime of focus and introspection.”

“I’m not a doctor, what I am is an advocate,” Watkins said. “And what I am advocating right now is that there be patience and compassion on the part of the public.”
