Jacob Chansley, better known as the Qanon Shaman, has filed a lawsuit in Arizona that seeks $40 trillion in damages and names Donald Trump and a long list of others. The 26-page filing was written as one long paragraph and reads more like a manifesto than a typical lawsuit.
In the complaint, he claims he is the rightful leader of a new government and says the country should only be run by the original Constitution and the Bill of Rights. He listed Trump, the Federal Reserve, the NSA, the IMF, the World Bank, Israel, Elon Musk’s X Corp, T-Mobile, DARPA and Warner Bros as defendants.
The lawsuit divides the damages into three parts, with $38 trillion to wipe out government debt, $1 trillion for rebuilding the nation, and $1 trillion for his own pain and suffering. He wrote that his claim came from “personal, emotional, mental, and spiritual torture and years’ worth of anguish.”
He also suggested that the Federal Reserve mint a single gold coin worth $40 trillion as his first act as “the first president of the ‘New Constitutional Republic of the United States.’” Reporters noted that the exhibits listed in the filing linked to an online folder that could not be opened.
