Coup/protest in the US

[Spizz]

No he didn't. It's a fail

Looks bang on to me. Why is it a fail?

We haven't seen the end of Trump.
Trump CNN won't let it be.

Trump hasn't shown any sign of leaving politics. He knows how it feels like to be the most powerful man in the world. So, Trump himself will make sure CNN doesn't stop reporting about him.

We haven't seen the end of Zuma either. The point is not whether they can rabble rouse, but whether they have significant levers of power. Mainstream Republicans have been revulsed by events of the last week.

As always Zapiro nails it:

It is ok. But gets bonus points for 'q sent me'.

Ironically the media is also part of the problem.

Yep, Fox, OAN, newsmax, youtube media personalities, peddling election theft and fear of the communist/socialists taking over, and how it was going to destroy the American way of life.

It is clear that several rioters had clear plans to find and execute Pence, Pelosi and others.

This was serious for them and the threat was there for all to see.

This was not some mild mannered loitering, but an attempted Putsch.

Why do these right wing / conservative networks push erectile dysfunction drugs like Nugenix for testosterone boosting and others so much? Especially during prime time.

Like they’re openly stating their prime time audience are (white) men with flaccid penis issues. No wonder they’re all so angry all the time.

It’s hilarious how Trump has now realised how serious this is and is throwing the people he incited to these acts under the bus. Just another example of the narcissistic cowardly nature of the man.

Photo shows Pelosi's son-in-law reporting on Capitol riot

CLAIM: Photo shows Nancy Pelosi’s son-in-law with antifa member who breached U.S. Capitol. AP’S ASSESSMENT: Partly false...

Aah. Now I get the humor. Pelosi's son in law has an actual job. . How wrong is that? He could have gone for a kushnier option and just worked for the in laws in some made up government role

Looks bang on to me. Why is it a fail?

Because it doesn't support his feelings

Parler: Amazon to remove site from web hosting service

If Parler fails to find a new web hosting service by Sunday, the entire network will go offline.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz boasts 4.9 million followers on the platform, while Fox News host Sean Hannity has about seven million.

In the days preceding the Capitol riots, the tone of discussion on the app became significantly more violent, with some users openly discussing ways to stop the certification of Joe Biden's victory by Congress.

Unsubstantiated allegations and defamatory claims against a number of senior US figures such as Chief Justice John Roberts and Vice-President Mike Pence were rife on the app.

However, to those increasingly concerned about freedom of speech and expression on online platforms, it represents another example of draconian action by major tech companies which threatens internet freedom.

This is a debate which is certain to continue beyond the Trump presidency.

Online platforms have no obligations under the first amendment. The first amendment only requires that the govt respect freedom of speech.

For me it's not funny or accurate. Do you love every joke/cartoon you see? Do you find them all hilarious?

The tears, the tears.

From your response, it is clearly not, as you said, "a fail".

In fact, it has reached its intended target. A bigly success!
