Wouldn’t it be funny if the hosting company was actually a shell company being run by the FBI?

Once DumpsterFire hears about Arnold’s takedown of the ShitGibbon and his backers, twitter will just explode with his wrath.

I was reading on Twitter that somebody signed in to Parler claiming to be a spokesperson for Individual 1, saying that he wanted to pardon everybody involved in the sedition, and all they have to do is give their names, addresses, and what crimes they committed. I have to wonder how many of them bought it.

AWS boots Parler tonight at a minute to midnight.

> Parler, the alternative social media platform favored by conservatives, now finds itself virtually homeless on the internet as Amazon, Apple and Google have all booted it from their platforms in a span of a little more than 24 hours.

Meantime, Parler’s CEO says that almost every vendor they have, including email and texting, has dropped them.

Stripe, which had been processing payments on the Trump Campaign website, has stopped doing so.

Trump’s not getting money from the suckers no more. CNET isn’t paywalled, but the story is also on the WSJ.

So all the data from Parler was “archived externally” before the shutdown.

The comments in that thread mocking the Parler people are gold. “Nobody told us what we put on social media could be seen by everyone!”

Here’s the [Reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/ParlerWatch/comments/kuqvs3/all_parler_user_data_is_being_downloaded_as_we/giu04o6/?context=3) with more details.

And get this:

> A significant number of those individuals went through the process of being a “Verified Citizen” on Parler. What does that mean?
> 
> It means they uploaded a picture of the front and back of their REAL State Driver’s License… Let that sink in for a second.

So they verified their real identities to an amateurish ‘privacy and anonymity’ app? And now every post they made (including the deleted ones) are in the public domain, and presumably in the hands of the security services, if they weren’t long before!

We need a stronger word than ‘moron’. 😄

That made me laugh out loud.

I wonder how long it will take Ivanka to to start going by Kushner instead of Trump?

Good, but fuck them.

" The company, which handles online payments for millions of online businesses, is cutting off the Trump campaign due to violations of its policies against encouraging violence, sources told the newspaper. Stripe’s terms of service prohibit its service to be used by any “high risk” business that “engages in, encourages, promotes or celebrates unlawful violence or physical harm to persons or property.” "

Have they been getting the same Trump campaign emails I have? Because that campaign has been “encouraging and promoting” unlawful violence and physical harm for years. Guess they were happy to take his money until they couldn’t hide behind plausible deniability.

Not to be focusing on lesser battles when we’re in the middle of the big one, but I see this as a purely self-serving move that happens to be the right one, too little and too late, just like resigning cabinet members. Glad for the current consequences for Trump, and pissed that they decided to not take their moral compass seriously until there was a chance of consequences.

It will even be more epic if it turns out the DOJ created the fake account.

Let them identify themselves, then arrest them.
