white house petitions no longer counting

[Roger Critchlow-2]

It appears that https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ is no longer counting signatures, someone doesn't want to hear what we think anymore.

[Marcus G. Daniels]

I imagine Obama administration had assembled a road-tested team, say..

 

Application development:  

1.       Senior software engineer, a Latin American male recruited from Microsoft

2.       Senior software engineer, an unusually talented woman from a Muslim family kept on after being a 24/7 fixer for the ACA website.  

Analysis: 

3.       Statistician, a black male recruited from a LinkedIn data mining group

Security:

   4. A Persian woman on loan from the NSA.  IQ > 150, PhD from Johns Hopkins.

   5. IT:  A white male that worked for various defense contractors.

 

Trump’s team gets together (Donald, Bannon, Jared Kushner, and Ivanka) and decide:

 

   #1, and #2 have to go, obviously.

   #3 already quit, and took a job at Google

   #4 Donald said she was at best a 7. 

        Kushner couldn’t keep her eyes off her. 

        Ivanka didn’t like  her.

        Bannon said she `had an attitude’.

   #5 stepped aside to let the FSB do its work.

It appears that https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ is no longer counting signatures, someone doesn't want to hear what we think anymore.

I used to work with the White House folks who built it. It seems like it is still working to me. We were just having a conversation about it yesterday. 

Let me know what makes you think it is not working anymore.

Rumor has it there was a back up of signatures.

I agree, it looks like it got unclogged after some kind of blockage, someone reported signing and confirming and failing to see the signature counted, and the tax return petition was stuck at the level I remembered from yesterday.

Sorry for the fake news, which may yet become true, no?
