Wow, the msm is really concerned about Parler. I’m sure they are just looking out for us.

Since this is backed by Mercer I can see her doing it.

Mitch loses power if there is a rebellion.

I wonder if Newsweak has ever written a story about the Twitter/Facebook/Google censors. Hmmm?

This was my first reaction. Write in Trump, the Dem candidates win. Stupid.

I’m in “Parler”, but, one gripe.

Why the name?

Isn’t that French?

Is parler an American company?

Why not “speech” or “FreeSpeech” or “FirstAmendment” or 1stAmendment?

Parler doesn’t sound too American to me. Perhaps something with more relevant meaning to it?

The write in idea is completely idiotic. And if they censor anything, why not porn, etc.?

French name Parler, bet it made Kerry happy. English is not good enough for some people.

Roger Stone’s Parler doesn’t have this on it. The only mention I see is him denying he’s pushing for it.

Sounds like Newsweek is fake news.

Dont obsess about stuff like that. Freespeech.(com,org,...) urls are probably already taken and camped on by Big Brother or front-running url speculators. A rose by any ...

Oh, man. There ya go. Now THAT will be the next thing the left seizes on. “Not only was Parler hacked, and they censor posts, they’re also not American and sell your information to foreign countries...allegedly.” Seriously, who knows why they picked it? Probably one of the few domains they could get for less than $100k or the like.

Based on its FEC filings, the super-PAC is dormant, with a zero balance and outstanding debt:

My guess is that lefties are borrowing its name to attempt to help the Democrats get a Senate majority. Stone has denied any involvement in the write-in campaign.

FEC record of William LeGate, the quoted Parler participant:

My suspicion is that he was trying to suppress the GOP vote in the run-off by associating his hashtags #WriteInTrumpforSenateGA and #WriteinTrumpGeorgiaRunoff with Roger Stone, and got caught by Parler.
