    It was easier to track them on Parler.

    If people on the internet have access to everything that has ever happened on that site then the NSA/FBI/CIA have access to that information.

    They will find a new way to clump together.

    And they will be exposed again and again and again.

    It will be a non-stop game of whack-a-mole, no doubt. Just like it always has been, it always will be.

    There's a reason legal entities want to have (or already have, depending on your level of tinfoil hat wearing) back doors to services and the internet in general.

    I've thought about this quite a bit in the last few days. I think the BEST hope is that, yes, a collective group of assholes was actually that stupid. Comprised of doctors, lawyers, politicians, nurses, blue collar workers, etc...they broke into the state capital, overran it in a riot all so that they could take selfies and urinate in garbage cans.

    The bullet that was dodged is that the group did not contain a team of highly trained soldiers or operatives from an unfriendly foreign power. Imagine what the equivalent to DevGru could have done if they had rode the wave in and then taken over the mess. You wouldn't need many men - probably less than sixteen - and that would have been it.

    The bullet that may not have been dodged is that this could actually have happened. Eight to sixteen soldiers dressed in jeans, hoodies and some type of mask that seamlessly blended into the crowd, then had hours of unfettered access to every senator's laptop and file cabinet.

    The best case scenario is that a bunch of yahoos were worked up into a lather by a selfish prick trying in vain to drum up a coup. The worst case is that, for a few hours, some group of unknowns could have done whatever they wanted.

    Makes me wonder if they are going to call a White House press conference and announce it tonight... and the web guy got word, and made the change too soon.

    The scary part is that there were off-duty cops in the crowd, showing badges to the Capitol cops... and there were armed "stupid" people in that crowd.

    I think it really has been a huge wakeup call to a number of people around security... which is why so many in charge have been resigning in the last couple of days. It's starting to come to light just how fucking bad at their job they've been.

    It says 19:49:00 for me... which could be the official time of record that they will release in an upcoming press release? Maybe?

    Or I wonder if it's some sort of little internal jab at him from some staffers that are sick of his shit? "Oh... I released it early? My bad... what are you going to do, fire me?"

    How curious. I clicked the link again and it still says the time I pasted in.

    I do think your first guess of why probably isn't far from reality.

    Very weird... oh well. Who knows?

    I'm betting that Trump can't be impeached if he steps down... and since the House are bringing in impeachment charges on Wednesday to be voted... and Trump would lose all his benefits if he were impeached a second time (no yearly pension of $200k, no secret service detail, no $1 million a year travel allowance), I'm thinking he's trying to get out ahead of this.

    This tweet gets misinterpreted. It's not some call for revolution, it's one rich asshole telling the other rich assholes "If you needing to have a net worth of $105 million instead of $100 million is what tips things over and causes the poors to kill us in our beds, I'm not going to have an ounce of sympathy for you greedy retarded shits."

    Pompeo wants to make sure everyone knows he’s a fat, worthless sack of shit before he’s out the door. Yes Cuba have been designated as terrorists again, because as we all know it’s Cuba who’s bullying America, as always.

    But since Pompeo made this declaration it shouldn’t mean shit. Undeclare everything the crybaby fuck has said and done once he’s out.
