Amid the swarm of angry, fanatical Trump supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol in a rally in which four people died, was the idiosyncratic man known as Q Shaman.

The tattooed, topless Shaman made his presence known while holding the American flag and shouting through a megaphone. He was wearing his usual threads: a furry, horned headpiece and red-white-and-blue face paint, AZ Central reported.

The snap below, which shows protesters including Q Shaman, was tweeted by Igor Bobic, a HuffPost politics reporter.

It turns out that Q Shaman, who was present at the Capitol riot, is reportedly a QAnon supporter named Jake Angeli.

Amid the hugely chaotic protest, a writer and editor at the Informant, Nick Martin, tweeted a snap of Angeli without his "fur hat and painted face costume."

“The man in the center with the fur hat and painted face is a QAnon believer from Arizona named Jake Angeli,” Martin tweeted.

The tweet further revealed that before Angeli joined the QAnon movement, he used to be a small-time actor, voice-over artist and singer.

“Here’s a photo of him out of costume,” he added.

Another picture was uploaded by a netizen on Twitter, identifying Q Shaman as Angeli and saying where he lives.

Angeli is reportedly known as a QAnon supporter. According to QAnon’s theory, Trump is pursuing a “secret war” against elite pedophiles working in the government, business and media who worship Satan, BBC reported.

Aside from his head-turning costume at rallies, Angeli, 32, is also known for his “Q Sent Me” sign, ABC 8News reported. Citing Arizona Central, Q Shaman was reportedly present during the February 2020 Trump rally in Phoenix, where he explained who “Q” was.
