Carolyn Maloney&nbsp;(D-NY) <a href=\"https:\/\/oversight.house.gov\/sites\/democrats.oversight.house.gov\/files\/2021-02-08.CBM%20to%20Wernick%20-Parler%20re%20Negotiations.pdf\">wrote a letter<\/a> to Parler\u2019s COO,&nbsp;Jeffrey Wernick, stating, \u201cIn the weeks leading up to the assault on the Capitol on January 6, Parler users actively took to the platform to call for violence and even \u2018civil war.\u2019 A recent analysis by USA Today shows a strong connection between President Trump\u2019s speech at the January 6 rally and a significant uptick in calls for violence on Parler. Immediately after President Trump exhorted his supporters to \u2018show strength\u2019 during his speech, the term \u2018civil war\u2019 surged into one of the top five most frequently used terms on Parler. One user wrote, \u2018Be men fight back and f*** them up. Civil war is upon us.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Citing \u201cnumerous Parler users\u201d who have been \u201carrested and charged for their roles,\u201d and claiming, \u201cParler reportedly allowed Russian disinformation to flourish on its platform prior to the November 2020 election,\u201d Maloney continued: \u201cIndividuals with ties to the January 6 assault should not \u2014 and must not \u2014 be allowed to hide behind the veil of anonymity provided by shell companies. In addition, according to a recent press report, the \u2018Trump Organization negotiated on behalf of then-president Donald Trump to make Parler his primary social network, but it had a condition: an ownership stake in return for joining.\u2019 These negotiations reportedly occurred while President Trump was still in office, which experts have warned raise legal concerns regarding anti-bribery laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maloney then wrote that the committee wanted:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>A capitalization table showing individuals and entities with direct or indirect ownership interests in Parler, and a shareholder register maintained by you or any third-party on your behalf;<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>A list of all individuals and entities who have or had any control over Parler;<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>A list of Parler\u2019s creditors which hold or held a debt of at least $10,000, including the type of debt funding, amount owed, maturity, and applicable interest rate;<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>All agreements, including but not limited to consulting, service, or business agreements, that Parler has with any Russian individual or entity;<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>All documents and communications referring or relating to proposed or completed financing, gifts, or investment in Parler directly or indirectly by any Russian individual or entity; and<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>All documents and communications referring to relating to a proposal to provide President Donald Trump with an ownership stake in Parler.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In January, Parler was removed from App stores hosted by Apple and Google. Amazon\u2019s cloud services division removed Parler soon after that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParler said it had acquired more than 12 million users by the close of the year. But the list never grew to include the former president, who was reportedly dissuaded from joining before the election by aides, including son-in-law&nbsp;Jared Kushner&nbsp;and Deputy Chief of Staff&nbsp;Dan Scavino,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/news\/house-democrats-demand-parler-hand-over-list-of-investors-creditors\/\">Mediaite<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
