Twitter exploded after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg claimed in a Thursday podcast appearance the FBI warned Facebook about “Russian propaganda” before the Hunter Biden laptop story dropped in 2020.
Speaking on an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Zuckerberg explained, “The FBI, I think, basically came to us – some folks on our team – 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 of that’s similar to that. So just be vigilant.’”
Zuckerberg acknowledged that “the distribution on Facebook was decreased” of the New York Post’s story about Hunter Biden’s laptop, noting, “fewer people saw it than would’ve otherwise.”
When asked by Joe Rogan how many people had been deprived of the information, Zuckerberg responded, “I don’t know off the top of my head, but it’s – it’s meaningful.”
Many commentators saw the incident as a damning example of Big Government and Big Tech working in unison.
“Collusion,” charged Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon.
“The FBI rigged the 2020 election,” declared Fox News contributor and editor-in-chief of The Federalist Mollie Hemingway.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., tweeted, “The FBI colluded with Big Tech to silence news stories weeks before the 2020 election in an attempt to control your access to information. Democrats in Congress have been intentionally ignoring the facts. When Republicans are back in charge, we will hold all of them accountable.” more
You have the FBI we have the RCMP.
Both are unscrupulous arse wipe organizations.
When you find out that Facebook can’t be trusted and your response is to run to Twitter.
Stop the world and let me get off because this place is nuts.
When Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif, is in charge of the future republican majority in congress/2023 not one damned democrat will be held accountable for anything. I have seen this movie before. Pressure your local rep for new leadership… Even if they don’t listen.
/Salute
Collusion, Complicit, Corrupt …… we all knew it.
There will be no penalties, no indictments, no prosecutions, no firings and changes.
Sure it’s a neat soundbite. Waiting for the Republicans to get to the bottom of this and hold people accountable is a fool’s wet dream.
McCarthy and Mc”CON”nell don’t have the leadership ability or a set of “balls” between them.
Geez, look at their history ! A liberal/moderate paul ryan protege’ and mitch the treasonous appeaser.
So the facetard factfucks got hoodwinked AGAIN, eh?!
I will consider the FBI as being blasted when there is black smoke pouring out from where all the windows used to be on the 7th floor of the J. Edgar Hoover Building.
Who died and left Kevin McCarthy in charge? The fucking guy is a NOTHING.
LAPTOP JOE & SON, 2 crooked and stupid slobs who are being exposed for the dirty criminals they are and the one major reason why FbI is covering for them via some bogus vaudeville “raid”.
Voat! Hard! Again!
