Parler: We warned the FBI more than 50 times before the Capitol riot

I never cease to be amazed at the stupidity of some people that post on social media.

It's great that Parler reported some of this stuff but what kind of blithering idiot posts it in the first place!? Between the idiots and the ones that impersonate idiots to make the idiots look even more idiotic you end up with a black hole of stupid on so many of these platforms.

Parler allegedly warned the FBI of 'specific threats of violence' more than 50 times ahead of the Capitol riot

The Justice Department has previously said insurrectionists used Parler's platform to plan the violent events that transpired during the Capitol riot.

I kept hearing that these plans weren't being posted at all. Before January 6th, I was hearing how anyone can post any nonsense on the Internet, and how it doesn't mean anything.

And then somehow a bunch of conservatives posted on the Internet about how they were going to take back the government by force at the behest of Donald Trump, and then after Giuliani squeaked about trial by combat and Trump said what he said, they went ahead and tried to do it.

Amazing coincidence.

Funny coincidence, that.

Right. And all of that was a lie because nobody had a freaking idea they were going to do anything until Trump told them to march on up to the Capitol and start murdering cops. We know that's the way it really went down because Queen Nancy said so.

that's a good point. Trump never said a word about the stolen election until that day.

Or we watched it unfold on TV ourselves, in real time, watching with our own eyes and listening with our own ears.

And then we watched more videos later from the same event, watching with our own eyes and listening with our own ears.

It's funny how observing things with your own senses works.

I would think they are the same kind of idiots who were kept busy for 6 years straight chasing their own tales looking for Obama’s secret birth certificate, and then fell for it again when the same guy lied to them about election fraud. I guess you just can’t fix stupid.

A reasonable person can show up in the thread, destroy braindead defenses like his in nine words, and yet they just keep coming back and smashing their heads against the same wall, day after day, week after week.

They must think they're running circles around us all.

Heck, Trump at one point told them he would cover their legal fees if they rough up his enemies. I bet they’re still waiting for the money. Yes, they are that smart.

Most of them still think the Earth is only 6000 years old, Coronavirus is not any worse than the common cold, and Q is going to reveal when Trump is going to come back with the military to take over DC.

The military takeover is completely going to happen, it is only a matter of time, and when it inevitably doesn't, of course who would be naive enough to believe random people typing nonsense on the Internet?

Trump's FBI, what do you expect?

No agency was functioning properly under TRump.

Asking you in a serious way: Do you actually believe that Trump being president somehow prevented the FBI from effectively following through on whatever tips they got?

I think all agencies were in varying degrees of chaos that subtly interfered with normal operations.

Ehh, I'm thinking the day-to-day stuff was just fine. But it would be interesting to find agents willing to say that political yapping prevented them from doing their jobs.

But without Trumpy since he plans to launch his own social media network that will compete with both Parler and whatever the MyPillow guy says he will launch.

That's why the FBI is bringing more and more conspiracy charges against the proud boys and others. Some knew exactly what they were going to do. My guess is Roger Stone played a big role in organizing. Now all they have to do is prove it and that scum bag can go to jail where he belongs anyway.

The answer is absolutely yes. Trump loaded up the DOJ and DOD at the last minute with total yes men. I will guarantee Trump's influence effected many of the decisions leading up to and on Jan. 6th.

It's one of those things that we'll never know the truth about, but it's pretty easy to read between the lines.
