Just yesterday Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg conceded that Facebook suppressed the New York Post’s story about Hunter Biden’s laptop following a warning from the FBI about ‘misinformation’.
Zuckerberg appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast when he was
asked about Facebook’s approach to the Hunter Biden report from October 2020
Zuckerberg responded as follows:
“The background here is the FBI, I think, basically came to us
… and was like, Hey, just so you know, like you should be on high alert. … We
thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election. We
have it on notice that basically there’s about to be some kind of dump … that’s
similar to that. “The distribution on Facebook was decreased, but people were
still allowed to share it,”
The Meta CEO contrasted Facebook’s approach with Twitter,
which locked the NY Post account and banned sharing the Post article.
"So our protocol is different from Twitter. What
Twitter did is...they said... you can't share this at all. We didn't do that.
What we did was...if something is reported to us as potential
misinformation...important misinformation, we also run third-party
fact-checking programs because we don't want to be deciding what's true and false
and...I think it was five or seven days when it was basically being determined
whether it was false, the distribution of Facebook was decreased, but people
were still allowed to share it,"
In response to a question from Rogan on whether the
distribution of the story was decreased, Zuckerberg said the following:
"So you can still share it, you could still consume it. Basically, the ranking and newsfeed was a little bit less, so fewer people saw it than
would have otherwise."
When Joe Rogan asked Zuckerberg how significantly the
distribution was affected, he did not give an exact figure, but said the impact
was “meaningful.”
Back in October 2020, The New York Post had carried
myriad reports
on the shady business dealings of Hunter Biden enabled by his father
Joe Biden. They also carried a report on Hunter Biden's laptop that contained emails, text messages, and financial
documents which proved that Biden, as Vice President, used his
influence to reap large profits for his family.
The laptop also had photos of drug-addled Hunter in a compromising position with a prostitute. There were messages of Hunter using the n-word.
Following the NY Post reports, prominent personalities
on MSNBC, NBC, The
Washington Post, The
Daily Beast, CNN, and
The NY Times coordinated their efforts to discredit the story.

51 former senior intelligence officials have signed on to a letter outlining their belief that the
recent disclosure of emails allegedly belonging to Joe Biden’s son “has all the
classic earmarks of a Russian information operation”. NPR, which is funded by
tax dollars, claimed there were “red flags” in the Post’s story.
It was amply clear that Washington, Big Media, Big Tech, and
the Deep State conspired to launch a disinformation campaign.
A news buster poll revealed
that 16% of Biden voters would vote differently had they known of
Hunter’s laptop.
This suppression of key information was an act of meddling in the
2020 Presidential Elections.
But that wasn’t the only meddling that occurred.
It
was also revealed that Zuckerberg and his wife personally donated nearly
$419 million to ‘non-partisan’ and ‘nonprofit’ originations that lobbied
for universal
mail-in voting. In the end, a record-breaking 64
million Americans cast their ballots by mail.
A Zuckerberg-funded organization lobbied for unmonitored private
drop boxes and hired Democrat activists who infiltrated election offices
and vote-counting stations.
Zuckerberg funds were directed to specific counties in
battleground states and were surgically targeted to
affect the results of the election.
Biden won 23 of 25 counties that received grants of $1 million
or higher from Zuckerberg-funded organizations in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Wisconsin, and Virginia.
Back to the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop report.
Now that the election is over and permanent damage is already done,
two of the foremost Democrat mouthpieces the New
York Times and Washington Post are attempting to salvage their reputation
by admitting the laptop story was authentic.
Zuckerberg seems to be doing the same.
He is attempting to reinvent history, place the blame on the FBI
and characterize himself and Facebook as reluctant and unwilling participants.
But that is emphatically not true.
Zuckerberg is a staunch partisan who both personally and via Facebook interfered with the 2020 Presidential elections to facilitate victory for Biden.
The result is the nation is struggling and the citizen suffers on myriad fronts due to Biden's misgovernance
Free and fair elections that have the complete trust of citizens are
the foundation of a Democracy.
The actions by Zuckerberg, big tech, the corporate media, DC, and the deep state have eroded the public's trust in the electoral process, and with very
good reason.
It will take ages for this faith to be restored.
