The Harris-Biden administration’s campaign to censor COVID-related content on Facebook during the height of the pandemic – as revealed by a remorseful Mark Zuckerberg this week – was so aggressive that it even cracked down on lighthearted memes, satirical posts and regular old jokes.

On Monday, Zuckerberg admitted in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) that “senior Biden administration officials, including the White House, “repeatedly pressured” Facebook parent Meta to “censor” pandemic-related content in 2021, as well as The Post’s exclusive reporting on Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop.

The takedown requests included posts that Zuckerberg considered “humor and satire.” While he did not give specifics, some examples were previously detailed in the “Facebook Files” compiled by Jordan and released to the public on X beginning in July 2023.

In April 2021, Facebook president of global affairs Nick Clegg told colleagues that Andy Slavitt, a top Biden adviser on COVID-19 policy was “outraged – not too strong a word to describe his reaction – that we did not remove” a certain top-ranked post related to the vaccines.

“remorseful”? They have zero sense of conscience or guilt period. They are incapable of human traits like this because they are not human...

Teachers at public schools are government employees.

When a teacher is fired for not using “proper pronouns” or saying there are only two sexes, it’s government violating the first amendment.

And how about the Sisters of Charity, in court for not paying for abortion?

I knew that biden had ordered social media to enforce speech and thought restrictions. He violated the First Amendment. He was never charged with a crime.
