First things first: we have no time for conspiracy theories like PizzaGate and QAnon. People believe some weird stuff out there, and entire cable news networks have used their power to force some of their purveyors off of social media, so dangerous/hilarious are their ideas.
With that said, get ready for the second biggest scandal you’ll see in the media today: a pastry chef at President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort has been uploading photos of her creations with the #qanon hashtag.
Now if she were an illegal immigrant working at Mar-a-Lago, the New York Times would have already dispatched a reporter and a photographer to do some glamour shots to go with the front-page story of her exploitation. But no, she just seems to be a QAnon conspiracy theorist. Wait, should we have ended that sentence with an exclamation point?
The Daily Beast’s Will Sommer writes a newsletter about conservative media:

What a brilliant investigative journalist! #WWG1WGA https://t.co/Fyj6YC5avf— Mscurlee??? (@Mscurlee1) February 23, 2019
you found out a pastry chef at the president's resort believes in conspiracy theories and track down their pastries, but you had no idea the governor and AG of Virginia had yearbook pics where they appear in blackface. This is hard-hitting journalism lmao

Behold!
Did you know there's a conspiracy regarding the esoteric meanings of a "Bundt Cake" that goes back 5 centuries
— Name (@Black_Whole_Son) February 23, 2019
Wow…such BREAKING NEWS. Should we dub it “Bundt Cake-Gate”? You media hacks are so desperate it’s pitiful to watch.
— Todd Headlee (@ToddHeadleeAZ) February 23, 2019
Well, this is truly earthshaking journalism. Look, a bundt cake with a slice cut loose. Better get Mueller on this right away!

If this stuff tastes as good as it looks, I’m willing to overlook her personal views…like I do every other chef.

This isn’t journalism. This is character assassination. Who cares if she has weird beliefs. She bakes cakes for a living.

Is this a hit piece on a private citizen?
— Lucky Punk (@luckypunk44) February 23, 2019
Why are you trying to destroy a pastry chef and private person?
— The Found (@OwenGraver) February 23, 2019
This is bullying, harassment journalism against a private citizen with no involvement in the public square. People like @willsommer deserve to be sued for every penny they’re worth until the Leftist media stops this endless war against anyone guilty of “wrong-think” https://t.co/pvugk2fHkI

What an abuse by a large media organization, going after a pastry chef with some wacky ideas just because the person works at a Trump property @NoahShachtman https://t.co/ED5eo5gBVB

Nice work exposing a pastry chef and her talent. Those desserts look great!

Absolute CUTTING edge journalism. Investigate further! Find out how many eggs were used in the batter, and if the EGGS are ALSO in on it!#qanon

Well I guess you have done it, now President Trump will certainly be impeached and thrown out of office.

Who the hell cares about someone's personal pastry chef?
You really had to dig that far down to come up with something resembling news?
