Q has mentioned (perhaps more than once?) that the Internet would go "dark" following the release of images particularly damning to those on the Left. As I remember, something about Obama aiming a gun at a flag/person?
That being said, I'm seeing a number of stories appear which seems to plant the seeds in the public's mind which would help to explain a sudden dark-period–that is, when sites are shut down to scrub them.

Is this the Deep State working to prep the audience for the inevitable? Also, happy Thanksgiving to everyone (Americans and non-Americans alike!)
