I entered Gab on my web browser and selected sign up and have the Gab icon, but there is nothing showing to sign up. Wondering if their servers are overlooked. Any thoughts?

"Whatever did we do before Facebook?"

Free Republic and back in the good old days, some of us Freepers would meet in an IRC channel.

Chris Kobach checked into the election corruption for a couple months, and then it ended.

I believe Trump's Election Integrity Commission ended because every jurisdiction they approached flatly refused to cooperate and provide any voter information at all.

There seems to be no way states and local election officials can be required to do anything at all unless they choose to. So all the long standing methods of vote fraud go on uninterrupted.

Think of that instead of some juvenile thoughts about my personal opinions.

LOL. You posted that you would attempt to influence a business decision affecting your employer because of this.

Own it.

I do own it, moron. You just don’t understand the basis due to your juvenile thoughts about it. Your inability to understand is not my concern.

This is all coordinated cause they think something may happen between now and the inauguration. Apple can take the app off the store but they can’t disable it unless AWS knocks them offline. Problem solved. It is an effort to silence and this should be the biggest lawsuit of all time. Especially if Twitter is to remain with all the garbage that has been going on there lately.

I guess Amazon is exempt, it doesn’t have to bake cakes to order.

"Amazon doesn’t own the OC 12 lines that feed their data centers, knock them off by denying them access to the fiber , that’s a regulated utility and can’t discriminate."

Your kidding, right?

You think AT&T or any other Tier 1 provider in the U.S. is going to deny traffic to Amazon?

And, as far the, "that’s a regulated utility and can’t discriminate" you think we are now in an environment of rule of law that applies equally?
Who in the fed gov is going to slap down AT&T if they did not shut off traffic to Amazon because Amazon is looking to hurt their political enemies? Nobody.

As such, I expect moves to start regulating them because of their biased service policies.

Who would start regulating them? The executive branch, the Senate, and House are all going to be in the hands of the party that is eagerly cheering this on. You can bet that there are a lot of dollars going to squashing any threat to that control in 2022, 2024, and beyond.

I’m sorry you feel that way. A prominent lawyer that is rich enough to throw his hands up and quit, didn’t. Sydney Powell is also a well known lawyer with accolades bigger than 99% of them is also fighting on, putting her career in danger. Here you are telling us they’re both crazy.
Give it a break and come back to Freerepulic on the 21st.

I do own it, moron.

Are you going to tell your employer you're advising avoiding AWS because of their decision to boot Parler?

Is that part of the evaluation criteria your team established for the cloud hosting decision?

You don’t know I’m thinking. You don’t know sh!t about sh!t, really. It’s been a whole fvcking 24 hours since this unprecedented declaration of war, and I’m sure a lot people are starting to consider our remaining options. So, maybe just STFD & STFU for now. Or continue punching your speed bag or saluting the red star or whatever it is you like to do.

I’ve found ordering from Walmart online painless. Not neatly as broad an inventory but I don’t need that and I’ve found by going directly to the company whose product I want is quick and I often get free shipping.

I’ve never liked Bezos or Amazon. When it was just books I occasionally went there- now I buy from Thrift Books or go to my library.

I pray Elon is with us.

He’s publicly disclosed he’s bipolar which allows him to swing over to Trump and then explain to his fraternity elitists that it was an ‘episode’. We call it his ‘stay-alive’ card.

Some say the zillion satellites he plans to put up are to track us through 5G tranceivers on the ground especially after Gates the Psychopath arranges us all to be vaxxed with bio-barcode elements. There’s credible evidence about this.

My teen and his friends follow Musk like a cult. I like him but not sure of him.

Be careful.

Dan Crenshaw kisses up to the WEF headed by the Great Reset head honcho himself, Klaus Schwab. Texans are suspicious of this former Navy Seal wounded in action and are talking of not sending him back to Congress.

The lesson is certain persons are not who they seem.

I sit back, fold my arms and watch true colors to be revealed.

Actually that was trending on Twitter and all he was saying was that they were out there saying that. If we really think this is about Lin wood we don’t even know what we’re fighting

Andrew Torba created GAB, a media platform that attracted Neo Nazis, white supremacists and other extremists. One of GAB’s members, Robert Bowers, posted anti Semite language and words telling of his intent to shoot up the Tree of Life synagogue in Squirrel Hill, Pa. When he did commit the shootings, he killed eleven people and wounded six. That caused Joyent to suspend its cloud host to GAB. Since then, GAB has had multiple problems that would take a book to describe. The extremists, when they are uninhibited, ruin everything they infest on both ends of the spectrum.

Stop whining. Dangerous people are everywhere and many times don't post on Social Media.

So you're okay with the white people haters on Twitter, Facebook, etc.? I'll bet you are, as long as they're not NAZIs or anti-semites, right?
