Interesting though since the other day it looked like submissions linking to his blog were shadow banned (wouldn't show up on new).

He is leaving office.

Oh? The Dem's state of absolute panic right now could've fooled me...

Report from elsewhere:

A group of developers latched onto the Press Release that Twilio put out at midnight last night. In that Press Release, Twilio accidentally revealed which services Parler was using. Turns out it was all of the security authentications that were used to register a user. This allowed anyone to create a user, and not have to verify an email address, and immediately have a logged-on account.

Well, because of that access, it gave them access to the behind the login box API that is used to deliver content -- ALL CONTENT (parleys, video, images, user profiles, user information, etc) --. But what it also did was revealed which USERS had "Administration" rights, "Moderation" rights.

Well, then what happened, those user accounts that had Administration rights to the entire platform... The hackers, internet warriors, call it what you will, was able to use the forgot password link to change the password. Why? Because Twilio was no longer authenticating emails. This meant, they'd get directly to the reset password screen of that Administration user.

This group of Internet Warriors then used that account, to create a handful of other ADMINISTRATION accounts, and then created a script that ended up creating MILLIONS of fake administration accounts.

Now that they had a way of creating admin accounts without interruption, they created a Docker Image (basically a virtual machine) called a Warrior, that anyone could download, and when fired up, would immediately start collecting data off of Parler, in a coordinated fashion.

Consider it like SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) that people used to load up as screen savers when their computers were not being used. Same concept, crowdsourcing.

All of this data, the videos, the images, the posts, the metadata (including the GEO location of all images and videos, and the connections to the accounts that posted it, has been (since midnight) being uploaded to various cloud drives and storage arrays for the purposes of Archiving this information, for later retrieval by law enforcement, by the public, by Open Source Intelligence communities.

And the kicker.. is this: all of this information was thought to be secure and private by individuals who were making the posts. A significant number of those individuals went through the process of being a "Verified Citizen" on Parler. What does that mean?

It means they uploaded a picture of the front and back of their REAL State Driver's License........ Let that sink in for a second.

I am positive the FBI has been actively soaking in this information along with the Internet Warriors, but this is how they are going to officially track down. And it's how the FBI, DHS, and FAA have been able to immediately and exhaustively create no-fly lists. Every verified attendee of the Capitol riot where they can find a real name has been placed on No-Fly Lists.

It might seem like a small geeky glitch or hack.. but in the age of Information warfare... this is the silver bullet for the people who used Parler as a place to organize their efforts. Also, a lot of posts were deleted by Parler members after the riots on the 6th. Turned out... Parler didn't actually delete anything.. just set a bit as deleted.

Guess what has access to all "deleted" content?

Administrator accounts.

Here's the story from last night: "It’s currently 3AM at Gab HQ, with 5x normal daytime peak traffic, which is 25x normal 3AM traffic."

Most likely even more traffic now...

(0.04252 kg) / (0.1016 m) = 0.4185 kg/m

That would be the case only if you simply lengthened the Twinkie. If you inside scaled up all of the dimensions of a Twinkie, then it would be nearly 63 times the size (62.9961) in each dimension, giving a Twinkie 6.4 meters long.

Another curious bit about Minnesota:

By way of example, see if you can spot the outlier in the Democratic vote for President in the DFL stronghold of Hennepin County in Minnesota. Then compare that pattern to the pattern of notoriously corrupt Broward County in Florida.

  • 2008: 420,958 | 491,831
  • 2012: 423,979 | 541,440
  • 2016: 429,283 | 624,146
  • 2020: 532,137 | 617,289

Suddenly an extra 100,000 Dem votes this year in Hennepin country...

Keep in mind that just because you can hear the clock ticking, doesn't mean you know how close it is to midnight.

Should we even tell Biden? We could just tell him that senior home he's moving into is actually the White House, and all of the other old people are the White House staff.

I was supporting Rand Paul, but when he dropped out I wasn't sure if I should go Cruz or Trump. Then the debate where he just went savage on Bush's response to 9/11, I knew in that instant...

First in line here in greater Minnesota. Looks like turnout today is going to be as much as it was in 2016, so combined with early voting...

Mission accomplished. I was the first one by about 7 minutes. Looks like turnout is going to be yuge.
