U.S. health secretary Azar resigns, cites Capitol attack

U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar has reportedly resigned, said to be following several other administration officials who have quit in recent days, at the tail end of the Trump administration, citing last week's siege of the Capitol as a decisive factor.

A subsequent report said he was going to remain in his job until Jan. 20, which is when the Trump administration would have ended anyway.

Reuters said that in a letter posted to Twitter by a "PBS Newshour" reporter, Azar cited change in the administration and confirmed his Jan. 20 exit, calling the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6 an "assault on our democracy."

This is a developing story.

FOR THE RESIGNATION LIST KEEPER

Parler CEO John Matze has gone into hiding with his family after receiving death threats.

Because of Big Tech censorship, Parler, the free speech alternative to Twitter, became the fastest growing social media company — until they got deplatformed by Amazon, Apple and Google in a coordinated attack.

Last week Amazon kicked Parler off their webhosting service, meaning the platform will be offline until they find a new host.

Parler has faced what can only be described as a mass coordinated cyber attack by Big Tech, first being banned by Apple and Google within a 24 hour time period. Parler responded to the deplatforming by filing a lawsuit against Amazon.

According to a new filing by Parler’s lawyers, John Matze was forced to flee his home with his family and go into hiding after receiving “deaths threats” and “invasive personal security breaches.”
