Floridian congressional candidate KW Miller launched some QAnon-inspired fireworks this Fourth of July, taking to Twitter to wrongly accuse Beyoncé of not being African American, but rather an Italian who is in the pocket of George Soros. Beyoncé's real name, if you can believe it, is actually "Ann Marie Lastrassi," according to Miller.

The thread that could only come from a Floridian QAnon believer who goes on to accuse Beyoncé of laundering a Satanist message through her music and 76-year-old singer Patti LaBelle of being a member of the "deep state."

Not that this needs restating, but Beyoncé is a Black American from Houston, Texas. Her father, Matthew, is African American from Alabama, and her mother, Tina Knowles, is from Louisianna and is of French, African and Native American ancestry. But you know, the deep state really can do a number on your ability to look up quickly verifiable information.

KW Miller is currently running for Florida's 18th Congressional district on platform that supports President Donald Trump and the QAnon conspiracy theory. QAnon believes that President Trump will abolish the world of a Deep State-linked cabal of pedophiles.

Miller went on to accuse the singer of sneaking Satanic messaging into her songs, believing the lyrics to her hit "Formation" to be an admission to going to being both demonic and a devil worshiper.

The hits continued for the next few tweets, dragging legendary singer Patti LaBelle into the mix for some reason. Miller apparently believes that Beyoncé and LaBelle work with George Soros to "reinstall Barack Obama as POTUS."

He uses a video of LaBelle joking about a time when she was stopped by the secret service and joked that Obama might be president again.

"Weeeeeeee," said Labelle after making the joke.

Miller, of course, signs these tweets "#WWG1WGA," an acronym for "Where We Go One, We Go All," a quote from the 1995 weather thriller White Squalll, largely used within the QAnon community.

Of course, Mr. Miller is just one of the numerous QAnon-supporting candidates running for office this year. Last week, Republican candidate Lauren Boebert defeated five-term incumbent Scott Tipton. According to Media Matters, Boebert is one of 62 current or former candidates who support the baseless conspiracy theory.

Of course, there's really only one proper response to these kinds of claims that Miller espouses:
