So? So what if he is saying there was fraud. I don't understand what you are trying to prove with this. How about the media investigate it.

It's been investigated out the wazoo already. You conveniently failed to mention that Trump and his supporters have now lost more than 50 lawsuits across the country, at multiple levels, about the alleged fraud.

Why? Because there was no fraud. These are the rantings of an autocrat trying to retain power at any cost.

What about Dems who cried fraud all these years when they lost?

There has been nothing on the scale of what we have been experiencing. Again...Trump lost the election AND he lost lawsuits at state and federal levels, in front of Republican and Democrat appointed judges. His own Attorney General also negated his claims. Republican secretaries of state and voting commissioners have negated his claims.

Yet he continued to make the same false claims, continued to attempt to commit his own election tampering (see: tape of his blatant attempt to "find votes"). And he continued to rile up his idiot fringe on January 6.

No politician, Democrat or Republican, has gone anywhere close to these extremes in modern times.

I realize that at football forum in the South is going to disproportionately attract certain demographics but some folks here are clearly willing to rationalize Die Fuher's behavior to the point of delusion.

I loaded this a while back and checked to see if it still worked. It did and I did an update that google pushed.

It’s official. Apple kicked Parler off the App Store.

Haven’t bought a new Apple product since 2017

I guess when my iPhone wears out, I’ll be using a flip phone like my grandfather

This has to be some kind of antitrust issue right? Parler is the predominant Twitter competitor. The people censored from Twitter have moved there over the past few years.

This was a move to protect Twitter and censor non progressive views.

---

The letter to Parler from Apple with examples of issues Apple felt should be removed looked to linked to using Twitter links (not tco short links but full Twitter links). It just seemed strange they would not link to existing posts directly on Parler and worse they used social media competitor’s links.

Are there any non political things to follow on Parler? I’m certain that most major companies would be afraid to have a page, but there must be some out there.

I follow BBC news and NASA images. Not sure about others.

Zerohedge is kind of political sometimes, but just read a post that Amazon employees are demanding AWS stop hosting Parler.

Stupid people...doanseenuffin.

We’re on the verge of civil war. I expect this to be an extremely violent year unfortunately.
