It's official: YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and whatever other social media platforms are out there are censoring not just Trump but all conservatives. Looks like MeWe and Parler are still somewhat free, though.
Conservatives just need their own websites

I don't use any of that crap anyway.

Twitter is banning everyone else, from Gen. Flynn to Sidney Powell. Of course, they'll re-ban DJT.

Stay tuned, boys and girls.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

Glenn Beck saw this coming. He has his own network ... Mercury One...the Blaze.  I would recommend subscribing.  It's relatively cheap and he may be the last source of conservative news.

Fox will get rid of Hannity (a huge Trump supporter) and Carlson.

I think they all need to pull their $$ together and form one big network.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

So ... in essence Trump has no way to stay in contact with any of his supporters.  Unless he starts his own network.

JUST IN - YouTube has just purged Steve Bannon's "War Room" account.

🔰 JUST IN - Google warns #Parler it must police its app or it'll pull it from the Android Play Store (NYT).

🔰 JUST IN - @Discord has banned the server "The Donald", "due to its overt connection to an online forum used to incite violence and plan an armed insurrection."

🔰 President Trump has just joined Parler, according to Sean Hannity. Meanwhile, the Parler app is unusable. Probably due to overload.

I have suspended my own Twitter account in protest against Twitter’s fascism. I ask all my followers to join me now on Parler and Rumble.

To the clueless and damn fools, when Commies take over the lies you were stupid enough to be seduced by are exposed for the lies they obviously were.  The freedoms you took for granted evaporate, and Commie standard procedure is hate, intolerance and purging to make it clear to the dumbest fool their idiocy will not be tolerated by them, its a whole new/different ball game.  Welcome to the clarified UTOPIA. Viciously they have already started re-educating fools, you didn't notice?

The left is terrified -- they think that Trump controls the masses; quite the opposite. The masses have empowered Trump.  He was able to assemble all of us similarly minded people and that is what they wanted to prevent and had to stop.  IF he can't communicate with us, then we lose that ability to gather in masses...exactly another reason for COVID.  They ordered us to stop gathering, social distance, stop going to church, etc.  They are limiting our ability to assemble, regroup, rethink and conquer!

There next step will be to shut down conservative social clubs, GOP clubs, conservative forums, etc.  We need to find a way to be able to communicate -- they can go so far as to prevent conservatives from having e-mail addresses, cell phones, etc.  They could even go so far as to shut down our internet access such as Comcast.

Anyone know of  a good quality make of Ham radio?

Yes, I think the left is capable of anything at this point.   And they always over-reach and over-react.   Methinks the 'lukewarm unofficial' war is about to go hot if they go that far.

Trump switched to the government official @POTUS twitter account.  Here's what was posted before it was deleted by Twitter...

They want us all dead.   It's how they roll.... ergo the "radical" part.

So Trump was banned from Twitter, which I actually think is censorship (and I read Jack Dorsey actually didn't want to do it but his employees forced him), why don't Trump supports just all repost Trump's messages on Twitter. Can Twitter really block them all?

I dang near did that about 100 times. VERY cheap- Just join Crowder's Mug Club and you're in. I am a coffee cup guy anyway... And that subscription almost made it worth it to pick up a Crowder mug.

Ain't that dumb? I never use but one coffee cup anyway and it's a beat up ol tin camp cup. Unless I am remembering my Dad, when I may on occasion drink from his old White Castles cup. But anywhere I go I am likely to commemorate the event with a coffee cup. Like @Cyber Liberty  does with cats...

As for me,I'd like to do a little "in depth" with that blonde with the red sweater.
