Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a letter on Monday that the Biden-Harris administration repeatedly pressured his company — which includes Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, and more — to censor content that is protected free speech.
Zuckerberg made the admission in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) this week in which he said that his goal moving forward was to “be neutral and not play a role one way or another” for either any political party or ideology. He said he doesn’t even want the appearance of playing a role and will not be making political contributions.

Mr. Undershirt should devote 100 percent of his time to making money and avoid politics. His common sense is inversely proportional to his wealth.

REMEMBER:
“Progressive” Democrats need to control what their subjects see & hear today for THE VERY SAME REASON Southern Democrats didn’t allow their slaves to read & write 160 years ago.
We’re dealing with pure EVIL, Folks❗️

The next letter will say "and we happily continue to do so" (censor speech not approved by the current regime or deep state operatives).

Did Zuckerberg give in to the pressure? Or were he and his top employees already onboard with the plan.

WE KNOW. We always knew.
Now fix it! Support free speech, especially the kind you DON'T agree with. THAT is true free speech. THAT is America!
Btw... Tucker's RFK Jr. interview... go watch it. Censorship is what they talk about.

Sounds like Mark may be feeling a little like a 'useful idiot' and getting tired of being the source of 'other people money'. After all the money he gave them he still was just a useful tool to the left.

I guess the media is no longer the watch dog of our freedoms but rather the source of control and propaganda of the swamp.

Ok, Zuckie, boy. Since you supposedly cleaned up your useless company, show me the beef. Get on the Trump train like RFKjr just did and stand with Trump at his next rally.

From the American Greatness website by Daniel Oliver:
"Trump likes to sound like a winner: he’s gonna win so big you’re not gonna believe it. In fact, of course, he’s lost more races than he’s won. He won by a squeaker in 2016, but he lost in 2020, and most of his candidates lost in 2022. He’s not a horse you’d put big money on. And he’s not running a focused campaign that has the feel of inevitable victory.
Partly that’s due to his word salads, which this column covered here. But partly it’s because he simply can’t stay on message. Here are comments from a number of people, some of whom undoubtedly want him to win."
I don't know what Daniel Oliver's problem is but I have a few thoughts for him. What happened to free speech? At the end of the above paragraph, it stated there were a number of people making comments. I looked at the people making the comments and they were not everyday American people. They were journalists, reporters, leadership people and they pointed out what Donald Trump should say and sound like. Well, you know what Daniel? Every day people don't want scripted words - they want words where there is follow-through. They want good leadership where words and actions mean something. Kamala Harris has had three and a half years for follow-through on their 2020 campaign and her WORDS and ACTIONS mean nothing. Yet, her political base wants to censor everyone else. Double standards.

Both Zuckerberg and Biden should be prosecuted for the felonious charge of election interference.
Right now.

I have this to say also. I understand there are some very good orators. Ronald Reagan on the conservative side and Barack Obama on the liberal side as examples. Now, I know some of Ronald Reagan's speeches were written by other people and Barack Obama would use a teleprompter. People in power or leadership positions may want censorship options because opposition might say something that has validity or credibility. As noted in my first above comment, Donald Trump is considered the opposition. One journalist pointed out his name calling. Yes, I do understand the point they are making but if I recall in 2016, Rosie O'Donnell took the first shot. Correct me if I am wrong on that one. What I abhor now is the media and the justice system using their venues to name call him. We now have to hear about the 34-count felon he is or the rapist he is. He was not even given a fair trial and, no, I do not consider a civil suit by E. Jean Carroll a fair trial. They already determined his guilt and were now rewarding financially.
Censorship - that is what a person does when they don't want to hear the truth.

Who are the lawyers who counseled zuckerbucks to fully interfere in an election? Why haven't they been subject to a bar review and disbarment procedures? Does RICO have a better description than this effort by facebook? Any lawyers out there care to comment?
