Breaking: Apple just pulled the Parler app. Apple said Parler is allowing too many posts that encourage violence and crimes. This follows a similar move from Google yesterday. Parler was one of the fastest-growing apps in the U.S., but now its future is in question.

Richard Fierro is badass not only for saving a bunch of lives on Saturday when he took out the Colorado Springs gunman — but also for his outlook on life. nytimes.com/2022/11/21/us/…

NEW: Conservative Twitter exploded yesterday with claims of proof that dead people voted in Michigan. We looked into it. The evidence indicates that this was not fraud, but rather something much less salacious: Run-of-the-mill clerical errors.

Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro lost control of the URL to his name, which his administration had used to promote his accomplishments. It now directs to an elaborate and detailed takedown of the president, just five weeks ahead of national elections. bolsonaro.com.br

Today's attempted coup in Congress began with Trump saying "If you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore," and then telling the crowd to head to the Capitol to give Republican lawmakers the message.

Remember when Trump fell for a fake account posing as his sister? (If not: He did.) Well, I figured out who was behind it: a 21-year-old DoorDash driver and Trump supporter in Mechanicsburg, Penn. And hoo boy, it's quite a tale.
