Here’s twist in the political censorship saga.
Mr. Facebook himself is having a change of heart.
He now regrets succumbing to pressure from the government.
Are we really entering a new era?
When the CEO of Meta is now going on record admitting that the Biden administration pressured him to censor Trump, you’ve got to wonder what is happening.
In a letter to the GOP-led House Judiciary Committee, Mark Zuckerberg revealed that the Biden-Harris administration pressured Meta to censor COVID-19
Is he no longer being blackmailed?
Is this just a tactic to jump a sinking ship that is the Democrat party?
Or is he no longer being threatened by the government?

Here’s the letter:
The Daily Wire reports:
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.
“In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn’t agree,” he said in the letter. “Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure.”
“I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it,” he continued. “I also think we made some choices that. with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn’t make today. Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction — and we’re ready to push back if something like this happens again.”
Mark Zuckerberg says that it’s "hard not to get emotional" about the spirit Trump showed getting up and pumping his fist with the American flag behind him after being shot. He says it’s "one of the most badass things I've ever seen."
