Amazon Web Services shut down hosting for the GOP’s Parler social media app late Sunday evening / Monday morning. Within hours, another app rose to the top of the App Store: Telegram. (Thread)

Members of MAGA websites believe the Trump campaign and right-wing media figures instructed their followers to join them on the app... However, we were unable to find a single person connected to Trump who has promoted Telegram. (Let me know if I'm wrong)

There are many “Donald Trump” accounts and no way to verify which is real. Is it the one with 273k followers that just shares his tweets? Is it the one with over 400k? Maybe it’s the one with less than 7k that tells supporters to “prepare.” Nobody knows.

Like Parler, Telegram’s roots stretch all the way to Russia. The app was created by Pavel Durov, a Russian entrepreneur best known for launching VK, the country’s own version of Facebook. Unlike Parler, Telegram’s owner isn’t friendly with the Kremlin. trumpfile.org/trump-supporte…
Durov was ousted from VK in 2014 after refusing to cooperate with the Russian government. They wanted data about protesters in Ukraine who used VK — protesters against Yanukovych, the president that Putin and Paul Manafort helped install. He refused. trumpfile.org/trump-supporte…
It’s worth noting that Parler’s shutdown isn’t the only reason Telegram has doubled its weekly downloads. Many are rushing to Telegram from WhatsApp, which will begin sharing data with Facebook in February. trumpfile.org/trump-supporte…

Thread: Listening to the new episode of @gaslitnation, "Clear Intent," with @AndreaChalupa & @sarahkendzior. Full transcripts available at GaslitNationPod.com.

"This was intentional... We've seen their assault on democracy for the last five years." - Andrea
.@AndreaChalupa goes through a timeline of events before and during January 6th. A couple things in here that I didn't know already. (I'm curious why the Kremers want so much credit for the march. That whole thing between them and Ali is confusing, but maybe GN will go into it).
.@sarahkendzior reads from an article she wrote in 2016. It's STILL relevant!

"This was coming so far in advance that you literally cannot tell the difference between an article that I published before he was even president and one that comes out now." qz.com/807615/donald-… Image

Four days after Trump and the Kremers (Women for America First) announced the January 6 event in D.C., Trump pardoned Paul Manafort. The pardon came right on time for Manafort to help prepare the march to the Capitol. (Thread)
The primary vendor for the events of January 6 was Event Strategies, a company co-owned by Manafort, Tim Unes, and Bobby Peede. The company also worked on Donald Trump's campaign events and inauguration ceremony - which is under investigation for money laundering, right?
Event Strategies' history with political conflict dates back to Ukraine, where Manafort & the company were funded by Russia to help elect Putin's candidate, Yanukovych. The job included creating agitation among Yanukovych's supporters & organizing them to act on their agitation.

Thread: Listening to the new episode of @GaslitNation, "The Purge, Accelerated."

"Their goal is not to govern, but to rule." gaslitnationpod.com
"They are going to try to leave all of these institutions, these departments, as bereft of oversight and actual people in there [doing] something to serve the American public as possible. Because that is how they maintain their power." - @sarahkendzior @gaslitnation
"Imagine that all of us today have returned from a time machine from the future, and we see what it's like if we do not get Georgia... I cannot tell you what a different future this country and the world will have if we can get Ossoff and Warnock." - @AndreaChalupa

60 Minutes is starting now on CBS with @C_C_Krebs, fired by Trump for not agreeing with election conspiracy claims
"We spent 3 and a half years gaming out every possible scenario for how a foreign actor could interfere in an election." - @C_C_Krebs #60minutes
"I don't know if I was necessarily surprised. It's not how I wanted to go out. The thing that upsets me the most about that is I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to my team, and I'd worked with them for 3 1/2 years." - @C_C_Krebs #60minutes

Thread: Listening to the new episode of @GaslitNation, "The Breitbart Senate."

"What we've seen so far is the Trump administration attempting a coup and failing... There is still plenty left in the Trump Crime Cult playbook... Murphy has conceded, but Trump still hasn't."
"There are a number of ways Trump and his crime cult could continue their attempted coup..." Litigation, SCOTUS, violence, bureaucratic obstruction, creating a national emergency as a pretext to the military. @sarahkendzior @gaslitnation
"What would actually unite the U.S. is an end to elite criminal impunity. For 4 decades, we have not only seen the same crimes carried out but the same criminals committing or enabling them. Manafort, Stone, Barr, the Trump & Kushner families" etc - @sarahkendzior @gaslitnation

Updated: Here's the final version of the #Parler post I made last night, now with more information about John, Alina, Rudy, and the possible long-term uses for the platform. @VickerySec @chrisinsilico @davetroy #parlerhack #ParlerApp trumpfile.org/parler/
#Parler is free for propaganda, but its “free speech” agenda is not extended to left-leaning users... Co-owner John Matze practically admitted that only conservatives have free speech privileges. #parlerhack trumpfile.org/parler/
A company called CarePICS announced that John Matze joined the company as their new CTO. The company’s Facebook page wasn’t updated for two years after John was hired, and the company never sent out a press release again. #Parler #parlerhack #ParlerHacked
