These are insane times for all Patriots.
Since the rally of Jan 6 (that I was a part of), Trump has been basically off the grid and his whereabouts unknown.
Lot of rumors that he would address the nation at 9PM (for past three nights) but never materialized.
Where is he? Is he under some kind of "house arrest" or is he fully in control of events and about to surprise us all with some actions?
I still plan to write a long article about my experiences in Washington DC on Jan 6 but I'm still absorbing that day. It was definitely the most surreal day of my life.
In meantime, the establishment, the media, big tech and the millions of sheep here in America are in their glory days. They really feel that they have won. That they have stolen this election and are about to be rid of Donald Trump, the "usurper", forever.
I would beg to differ. Trump had at least 80 million voters on Nov 3 (and probably more). We are in the majority. The problem is, we have been outflanked due to the immense power of MSM and big tech.
But we will not be silenced.
We still have this little sanctuary called Free Republic. Hopefully many others come here in the days ahead. Although we are still "Web 1.0" here, that has helped kept us under the radar. I think it will be very difficult for big tech to shut us down.
As for social media, Twitter is dead to me. I de-activated my account there Friday, hours after they suspended Donald Trump's account. No true patriot should be active there any longer.
As for other social media, looks like Parler will be offline for a while. In the meantime...
You can sideload the Parler app on Android. Instructions abound on the Web for that.
iOS users are probably screwed unless you jailbreak your iPhone - which will lead to other issues.
Gab is the best bet right now, as they are not dependent on apps and have their own servers.
On my iPhone, I was able to create a Gab icon that functions just like an app. Basically you navigate to Gab on your mobile browser and create a shortcut to your home screen (Safari is best for this). You then get a shortcut with the Gab logo and it functions just like any other app.
Gab did an excellent job coding their website to be optimal on a mobile browser.
Kudos to them. I hope Parler follows suit and I plan to be active here as well as Gab and Free Republic.
Meet you all on the other side of this madness! We will get through this and remember, no matter how dark things get in the days ahead, we outnumber the enemies of freedom. The United States must survive. We are still the only country standing between freedom and slavery.
It’s not just our Deep State going cray cray.
The UK’s is talking about postponing local elections this May til the fall.
Cuz of the coof.
Uh huh...
Pence barred from WH?
Yes. And he’s real pizzed about it. More likely peeing his pants scared about it. He has zero contact with the POTUS at this point.
Glad I did...
Even tho they advertize based around protecting your privacy:
Firefox was created by Mozilla as a faster, more private alternative to browsers like Internet Explorer, and now Chrome.
Mozilla is calling for more deplatforming. They plan to make right-wing anything into white supremacy and worthy of silencing:

Mozilla is calling for more deplatforming. They plan to make right-wing anything into white supremacy and worthy of silencing:
“…as reprehensible as the actions of Donald Trump are, the rampant use of the internet to foment violence and hate, and reinforce white supremacy is about more than any one personality. Donald Trump is certainly not the first politician to exploit the architecture of the internet in this way, and he won’t be the last. We need solutions that don’t start after untold damage has been done.
Changing these dangerous dynamics requires more than just the temporary silencing or permanent removal of bad actors from social media platforms.
Additional precise and specific actions must also be taken:
Reveal who is paying for advertisements, how much they are paying, and who is being targeted.
Commit to meaningful transparency of platform algorithms so we know how and what content is being amplified, to whom, and the associated impact.
Turn on by default the tools to amplify factual voices over disinformation.
Work with independent researchers to facilitate in-depth studies of the platforms’ impact on people and our societies, and what we can do to improve things.
These are actions the platforms can and should commit to today.
THE GOP IS NOT ASLEEP. THE GOP IS IN ON IT.
**************
Well, yes and no. Some in the GOP are undoubtedly “in on it” with the Dems. However, a good portion of the GOP is simply clueless and weak; they just float along with the current to try and keep their seats. They are blissfully ignorant, useful idiots.
We voters are also asleep at the switch. The crooks and the idiots are there because of us.
Good
I saw SamAdams76 grab a snickers and a cherry soda once during a flash mob run on a 7-11.
No wait. I heard it from “anonymous”s sources.
Which in America these days is just as good :)
Whack jobs.
Trump was loyal to Pence. It was not reciprocated.
I agree
I was there for Trump and for Trump only.
Thank you so much for your posting efforts
Thanks for the reply re Firefox. That has raised my level of concern about using it. Your mention of TOR has me looking at VPN’s. One site recommends using NordVPN with TOR and claims that its the fastest VPN. I need to continue researching my options. I appreciate your advice.
I sure like Sam’s beer. It’s one of my absolute favorites!
I usually go with "CoCo": "Covid-Cooties" as in a taste of Communist Chinese CoCo.
Just cancel your Amazon prime accounts
Speak for yourself.
Thank you Sam. Gab seems to be a good alternative too.
Truth hurts.
You misunderstand me...I was referring to social media, NOT the rally. I would have liked to see all eighty million Trump voters in Washington on the sixth, although I know it wasn’t possible.
