THE FACEBOOK FILES PART 3.

Newly subpoenaed internal notes of meetings between Facebook executives and Biden Admin officials reveal more about the lengths the Biden White House wanted to go to control true speech on Facebook.

🧵 Thread:

foxnews.com/media/new-face…
In 2021, the White House wanted to control what narratives and true content was posted on Facebook surrounding #COVID19.

President Biden went so far to say that Facebook was “killing people” for allowing certain statements to be published on the site.

cnn.com/2021/07/16/pol…
Rob Flaherty, President Biden’s then-Director of Digital Strategy, repeatedly put pressure on Facebook to explain its content decisions.

“We have to explain to President, Ron, people, why there is misinfo on the internet…” Image
For example, Flaherty questioned whether Facebook was doing enough to reduce traffic from sites like the @nypost.

“I’m curious – NY Post churning out articles every day... What is supposed to happen to that from Policy perspective. Does that article get a reduction, labels?” Image
But that wasn’t enough for the Biden White House. Flaherty wanted Facebook to go a step further.

He wanted Facebook to kick people off its site. Image
The Biden White House’s effort to censor opposing viewpoints only grew.

So, they upped the pressure.

Flaherty demanded that Facebook “play ball” and work with the Biden White House on censorship.

He called it his “dream.” Image
But that’s not all.

The Biden White House wanted to control what you saw on Facebook.

They questioned whether Facebook could change its algorithm so users saw more posts from the New York Times and less from the @realDailyWire and @TomiLahren. Image
Why did they do that? Because they didn’t think you were smart enough to decide for yourself.

President Biden’s head of strategic communications and public engagement for the #COVID19 response, Courtney Rowe, mocked Real America’s ability to determine what's true and what isn’t. Image
Facebook knew it had to act.

One employee tried to explain to the White House that if the company couldn’t “remove” content, it could at least “contain it.” Image
But Flaherty continued to press for more content moderation and CONTROL on so-called “bad” content.

And of course, Facebook caved.

The company ADMITTED to the White House that it reduced content of certain posts – even if the posts didn’t violate the company’s terms and contained TRUE information.
Just read this from a Facebook employee. Image
These newly subpoenaed meeting notes continue to show the Biden White House’s desire to direct and control content on Facebook.

More evidence of the censorship-industrial complex.
To be continued…

THE AMAZON FILES PART 3 – AMAZON’S CENSORED BOOKS LIST

We knew that @Amazon censored books because of pressure from the Biden @WhiteHouse.

Now we know which books:

--Children’s Books
--Books for Parents
--Books critical of Big Pharma

🧵 Thread:
.@JudiciaryGOP and @Weaponization obtained internal Amazon documents showing that the urgent “impetus” for Amazon censoring books in March 2021 was “criticism from the Biden administration.”

To censor the books, Amazon created a “new [Do Not Promote] class for anti-vax books.” Image
Internal emails reveal that Amazon initially added 43 books to its newly created “Do Not Promote” class of allegedly anti-vaccine books.

These pro-censorship changes were being made “due to criticism from the Biden people.”

Before finalizing a new content moderation policy proposal, YouTube asked the Biden White House to review and for their “feedback.”

🧵 Thread:

THE BIDEN WHITE HOUSE CENSORSHIP OF THE LAB LEAK THEORY

🧵 Thread:
On July 16, 2021, Mark Zuckerberg texted Sheryl Sandberg, Nick Clegg, and Joel Kaplan.

Three of the highest ranking executives at Facebook.

Could Facebook tell the world that “the [Biden] WH put pressure on us to censor the lab leak theory?" Image
Earlier that day, Joe Biden had told the world that Facebook was “killing people,” and the company was livid.

President Biden’s policies have ensured that most illegal aliens can remain in the country indefinitely—even after those illegal aliens have 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞.

In fact, instead of ensuring that criminal illegal aliens can be quickly removed from the United States, President Biden and Secretary Mayorkas have made it 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭 for ICE officers to arrest criminals.

🧵 THREAD:
In September 2021, Secretary Mayorkas issued a memo entitled “Guidelines for the Enforcement of Civil Immigration Law.”

The training materials for the “Mayorkas Memo,” which were obtained by @JudiciaryGOP, reveal the absurdity of the Administration's "enforcement priorities."
The materials include a laundry list of "mitigating factors" for an ICE officer to consider before arresting or removing an illegal alien, including:

-An illegal alien's age and length of presence in the United States;

-"[A] mental condition that may have contributed to the criminal conduct, or a physical or mental condition requiring care or treatment";

-"[I]mpact of removal on family in the United States, such as loss of provider or caregiver";

-"[W]hether the [alien] may be eligible for humanitarian protection or other immigration relief"; and

-"[T]ime since an offense and evidence of rehabilitation."

Secretary Mayorkas is currently BLOCKING the release of information related to several criminal illegal aliens.

Info we are seeking: when the illegal alien crossed the border, why they were released, criminal history, etc.

Who are the people that he’s covering for?

🧵 THREAD:
2. Daniel Hernandez-Martinez

On October 30, 2023, @JudiciaryGOP requested information about Martinez, a Venezuelan national, who allegedly “randomly attacked at least three strangers and two cops and [was] arrested—and released—six times on 14 different charges” within just two months of his arrival in New York City.
Roberto Emilio Vasquez-Santamaria.

On October 30, 2023, the Committee requested information about Vasquez-Santamaria, a national of Peru, following reports that Texas Rangers arrested the alien for an alleged murder. Vasquez-Santamaria is accused of “bludgeon[ing] [the victim] to death in the backyard of a home.”
