Gab CEO Andrew Torba recently reported that Gab has come under attack by a highly suspicious wave of new accounts on the site that have promoted and threatened violence;<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/gab-ceo-blames-cia-mockingbird-media-latest-psyop-campaign-slew-new-accounts-popping-nowhere-making-threats-violence/ Gab CEO Blames CIA and Mockingbird Media for Latest PSYOP Campaign of Slew of New Accounts “Popping Out of Nowhere and Making Threats of Violence”] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> Torba attributes the suspicious activity to a suspected [[psyop]] campaign being co-ordinated by the [[Democrat]]-corrupted [[CIA]] via its [[Operation Mockingbird]] campaign, then pointed out that Gab has a zero tolerance policy toward such behavior and, after obtaining information on the violence-promoting accounts (including screenshots of violent posts) to use as evidence for law enforcement, will act to terminate the offending accounts. Torba also pointed out that the psyop was begun as part of a co-ordinated effort by the Left to take down Gab and other conservative social media sites by framing them for the [[Antifa]]-instigated attack on the [[United States Capitol Building]] on January 6, 2021<ref>[https://gellerreport.com/2021/01/photos-reports-show-antifa-infiltrators-stormed-the-capitol-building.html/ Photos, Reports Show ANTIFA Infiltrators Stormed the Capitol Building] at the Geller Report</ref> (done as part of Antifa's infiltration into the large gathering of Trump supporters who met to protest the [[Democratic Party|Democrat Party]]'s illegal theft of the [[2020 presidential election]] in [[Washington, D.C.]]), which later led to the death of Trump supporter [[Ashli Babbitt]] when she was allegedly shot in the neck by a [[U.S. Capitol Police]] officer inside the Capitol.  As part of the attack on Gab, the [[New York Times]] published a hit piece against the site that made baseless claims against Gab and other conservative social media sites, claiming without proof that the anti-election theft protests had been organized primarily on those sites.
