Republicans and right wing whackjobs on Parler are taking the news of the Supreme Court refusing to hear Texas' attempt to overthrow the election as well as expected. Lots of threats of 'succession' (they can't spell 'secession' for some reason) and accusations of the Supreme Court being taken over by the Deep State.
The latest tweets from @parlertakes. Republicans and right wing whackjobs on Parler are taking the news of the Supreme Court refusing to hear Texas' attempt to overthrow the election as well as expected. Lots of threats of 'succession' (they can't spell 'secession' for some reason) and accusations of the Supreme Court being taken over by the Deep State. Here are some highlights.

If the Supreme Court can't save our Republic, then where is the Military?

Allen West is BIG MAD
The @TexasGOP is out with a statement in the wake of the Supreme Court decision, all but calling for secession:

The Supreme Court just told us that we are no longer a Constitutional Republic and our votes no longer matter.

Ken Paxton is sad he won't be getting that Presidential Pardon now:
It is unfortunate that #SCOTUS decided not to take this case and determine the constitutionality of these four states’ failure to follow federal and state election law.
I will continue to tirelessly defend the integrity and security of our elections.https://t.co/TIbse4yKxb

Parler is having an even worse times. ParlerTakes has been posting hilarious tweets from all around MAGA land:
Overall, Parler reactions to SCOTUS' rejection of Texas' lawsuit are mixed. But denial, calls to civil war, talks of secession, blaming the deep state and the swamp, and fears of being taken over by communism (particularly China) seem to be the most common responses.

HELLO, WHERE IS THE KRAKEN? IS IT HIDDEN? IS IT INVISIBLE? WHO IS LOOKING OUT FOR DONALD J. TRUMP, THE PRESIDENT FOR LIFE OF OUR GREAT COUNTRY OF TRUMPISTAN?
Kidding. Democracy won. Barely. 3 days until the electors congregate to officially elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Then, I think, we can breathe easier.
This is not a public relations post for Twitter, which should have banned Donald Trump in 2015 for birtherism.
But it's still hilarious to watch the comparative #FAIL of Parler, that stupid Twitter-clone that conservatives allegedly 'fled' to because of Twitter 'censorship.'
Turns out the big accounts on Parler have remained on Twitter and are just copying their content over the fence, so to speak, to keep the MAGA types engaged with their 'content.' Media Matters reports:
Conservatives flocked to Parler to “speak freely” after the election. A month later, the platform has stalled as fewer people are actively using it.
Media Matters identified 236 Parler accounts associated with prominent right-wing and far-right figures with substantial followings on other social media platforms. We also included those who have been publicly banned from other platforms. We found that in that list some of Parler’s biggest right-wing accounts have earned more followers on Parler than on Facebook or Twitter, and they use Parler as another platform to spread narratives being posted elsewhere.
Elsewhere, like Twitter? Yeah.
However, many right-wing Parler accounts with the most followers use Parler as another platform to spread narratives being posted elsewhere. [Senator Ted] Cruz barely posts on Parler, but his posts, known as parlays, often have the same content as his tweets, while [Marc] Levin and [Maria] Bartiromo post nearly all of their content to both Parler and Twitter.
Also, if you want to read the 'best' of Parler (heh), do what I do, and follow @ParlerTakes on Twitter.
