And Sleepy Joe Will Get The Credit: US Politics January 2021

Lol, just got back from that twitter building non-protest.

everybody on social media pointing out Capitol Rioters getting added to No Fly List and laughing at the vids, so far every one I've found has been for people kicked off for other reasons (not masking/being disruptive).

after i saw the first couple of these get debunked, and then saw numerous other people repeating the "no fly list!" misinfo over and over, based off of only a tweet, i decided that i am never going to an airport again, fuck this

'As tempting as it is to wreak max havoc with no particular aim in mind and then suffer the long-term consequences of that perplexing decision, perhaps I will instead try to content myself with all of the aspects of my fairly dece life that I would have been casually flushing down the toilet by engaging in revolutionist cosplay.'

if people want to believe that attending the next insurrection will get you the no-fly list, misinfo away

Don't if these have been out before, but just noticed today that The Epoch Times has bought daytime ad space on my local ABC affiliate.

NEWS: U.S. Army Captain Emily Rainey has resigned her commission, @CBSDavidMartin reports, after leading a group of people from N.C. to the rally in Washington that led up to the deadly riot in the U.S. Capitol.
Rainey was a psychological operations officer, @JimLaPorta reports. https://t.co/C4JKwwjtM5

Xxxpost i ain't got no MAGA in my feed

xpost You could say she psyched herself out.

not sure when it actually happened, but parler is now down.

Last night at midnight PST, when Amazon kicked it off its servers.

You might want to scroll up to earlier this morning for some very delicious information in re: Parler's outage.

(i.e. hackers uploading all Parler user info, messages, etc. to the cloud and saying 'hey yo FBI, over here')

I wonder how many red-state governors are going to allow violence against Democratic state legislators by "under securing" their statehouses and refraining from calling out the national guard a few days from now.

can't wait for DeSantis' response!

Emily Rainey resigned before the protest, I heard.

lmao literally a psyop!

xp The NYT is reporting that some people who participated have been put on no-fly lists. I'm guessing they don't get their info from TikTok, but could be wrong.

they should be!

People are way too high on the hunt for horn hat guy or whatever and not nearly alert enough to the violence that could be happening across the country from 1/16 through the inauguration.

xposts

horn hat guy has already been arrested (not that your core point isn't valid, just a bad example)

Good thing all of these people are off twitter and the like, because now they won't know the FBI knows all about their evil schemes.

"The NYT is reporting that some people who participated have been put on no-fly lists" that would be good. I'm just seeing 'no-fly' everywhere, including on an exegesis on what happened with hackers and Parler this weekend (where they were able to gain access and create millions of admin accounts due to some of the authentication partners pulling their service suddenly). It was stated that 'this is how the FBI was able to make no fly lists so fast'.

Yes, I know. And so were podium guy and feet on desk dude etc. I just mean, like, those clowns aren't the show, the show is still on its way and it's going to have a hell of a lot more AR-15s involved in most places than it did in DC

xpost to dan

a hell of a lot more AR-15s involved in most places than it did in DC

Whether it's truly sound or not, I'm taking some solace in the fact that everyone was keyed up for nationwide election day mayhem that didn't ultimately transpire. Which is not to say that we shouldn't be mindful and cautious of what could go down in the coming days. I'm just personally trying to not let trauma dictate my predictions.

At least one member of Congress who was in the safe room on Wednesday has now tested positive for COVID.

Following the events of Wednesday, including sheltering with several colleagues who refused to wear masks, I decided to take a Covid test.

I have tested positive.https://t.co/wivlbwrmV0

weird...

random

flip-floppers

Huh

weird, MI conservatives needed to directly the experience the threat of "armed protesters" also wanting to murder THEM, as well as democrats. now that they have directly experienced it and confirmed that it is real and affects them, personally, they can finally take the next step of trying to do something about it.

tough out there

Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro and Dan Bongino’s employer, Cumulus Media, has told its on-air personalities to stop suggesting that the election was stolen from President Trump — or face termination “immediately”https://t.co/aMzP3nO7PV

I wonder what will show up in the deleted private messages of the Parler accounts belonging to certain members of Congress? There's got to be some interesting stuff in there right?

"help induce national calm"

even their messages of contrition bear traces of someone who is obsessed with 5G conspiracy theories

Man if only the contrition bear were with us now

5G chess

good luck to you

they only got posts unfortunately - this is the hackor

since a lot of people seem confused about this detail and there is a bullshit reddit post going around:

only things that were available publicly via the web were archived. i don't have you e-mail address, phone or credit card number. unless you posted it yourself on parler.

— crash override (@donk_enby) January 11, 2021

yeah that reddit post made no sense to me technically

that Cumulus media memo went out on Wednesday, same day as the coup.

A Cumulus executive issued the directive on Wednesday, just as Congress met to certify Joe Biden’s election victory and an angry mob of Trump supporters marched on the Capitol, overwhelmed police and briefly occupied the building, terrorizing lawmakers and leading to the deaths of five people.

...

Since the election, Cumulus has remained silent while some of its most popular hosts — who include Mark Levin and Dan Bongino — have amplified Trump’s lies that the vote was “rigged” or in some way fraudulent.

On his program on Tuesday, the day before the march on the Capitol, for example, Levin fulminated about Congress’s certification of electoral votes for Biden, describing the normally routine vote as an act of “tyranny.”

“You think the framers of the Constitution . . . sat there and said, ‘Congress has no choice [but to accept the votes], even if there’s fraud, even if there’s some court order, even if some legislature has violated the Constitution?’ ” Levin said, his voice rising to a shout.

...

However, there’s some question as to whether stars such as Levin will comply with the recent edict and whether Cumulus will discipline them if they don’t.

On his syndicated radio program on Thursday, a day after Cumulus sent its memo and Trump supporters breached the Capitol, Levin didn’t seem to be backing off. “It appears nothing has changed in 24 hours,” he said on the air. “Not a damn thing. The never-Trumpers, the RINOs, the media — same damn thing.”

He went on to add: “I’m not stirring up a damn thing. Everything I say is based on principle and mission. Everything is based on liberty, family, faith, the Constitution. . . . My enemies and my critics can’t say the same.”

It's my hill and I'll die if I want to!

Trump going out on a low note from a numbers perspective. The Marist & Q-Pac polls were downright horrible for him. Approvals south of 40%. Becomes first prez to lose House, Senate & prez in one term since Hoover. Trump's a bad politician, folks. https://t.co/5Nwp4TPSej

Has he even been calling in to his usual chumps? For all purposes he's gone already, so he should probably just quit.

he's been completely silent since he got blocked on twitter. which is frankly weird and concerning.

"I’ve heard a lot of people say, Is it the right thing politically to impeach this president? ... Will it harm the Democratic Party?" Rep. Dan Kildee (D-Mich) said in a press conference Monday. "In terms of whether it could harm the Democratic party, I could not care less."
