I read an article a day or two ago that alleged the reason ACS Cloud Services deplatformed Parler was because Bezos thought Trump was either joining to join it or become a major stakeholder. I'm no lawyer but that sounds like restraint of trade and/or anti-trust collusion to me. But, all those companies that are freezing President Trump out are run by lefty's so that must make it OK.
ReplyDeleteIn other news, Twatter has deplatformed James O'Keefe AND Project Veritas. What was it some guy once said? When you're taking flak, you must be over the target. Now if Facefook joins in, that's definitely collusion. The way the courts are structured these days O'Keefe will probably be told he lacks "standing".

RICO.
DeleteWhoops, the d-rats never heard of it, would never enforce it, and know damn well most of their buddies would have long prison terms if it were ever to be enforced.
Wondering who the fuck this "American Department of Justice" is? To my knowledge nothing like exists at the federal level.
DeleteTaylor Swift... sounds like some kind of pork product/canned mystery meat.
