I'm sorry, did I mistakenly take your meaning wrong? Who is at fault for Parlor no longer being on web stores or hosted on cloud services?
Rereading your posts still makes me think you're more worried about Google dropping Parlor for violating their terms than you are that Parlor brought it on themselves and really should have been dropped long ago. |

This.
If Parlor want to stay on the air, there is a really simple way they can do that...become their OWN ISP, and host their OWN content. Then they can make their own rules and do not have to be beholden to anyone for their existence. The Government wont shut them down, because that would be a violation of their 1A rights. |

Not a social media site, but the PGA has cancelled it's 2022 Championship TOurney which was scheduled at a Trump owned Golf Course in New Jersey,and will relocate to another Gold Course.

It was just commented on CNN how weird it is not to have had several Trump tweets or reports in the last few days. I agree. I kind of looked forward to that craziness every morning.
There are apps I've never even heard of that are disbarring him. The one that made me laugh is Stripe, apparently a money-handling process. |

It scares me that Trump still (ostensibly, it's really hard to get a firm grip on exactly how many loops Trump has been cut out of at this point) has access to the EAS.
I keep waiting to hear my TV make that squeal siren and start reading "IT'S ALL FAKE! THE ELECTION WAS STOLEN!" start scrolling across the screen. |

That reminds me. It was 1pm local time Jan 6 when our nuke sirens went off. (OK, tornado alert.) Of course, it was the standard scheduled monthly test, but I was watching the riot escalate at the time.
Then about 2:30 an EMERGENCY ALERT card came up on the TV. It was another required monthly test, but they usually do those at like, 3am. Both of those sounds I find particularly hair-raising. Especially so that day. |

Apparently Kushner is the one who talked Trump down from joining Fringe Sites like a Gab and Parlor after he was banned from all mainstream ones.

I'm surprised Trump hasn't tried to set up a tinder or grindr account...

Trump going through his closest looking for his old Ham Radio...
Trump angrily talking about the Deep State stealing the election on Amazon reviews of curtain rods... Trump leaves Congress a 1-Star Yelp review... |

He's the President. He literally has a Press Corp.
I don't have my own Press Corp and I'm not feeling particularly censored by big government. |

I got a feeling he will not be welcome in the World's most exclusive club either: The Ex Presidents of the United States.
