Trump Threatens To Jail Mark Zuckerberg For The Rest Of His Life

Donald Trump is putting Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on notice that he will spend the rest of his life in prison if he tries to interfere with the election. This empty threat is a result of Zuckerberg’s recent letter to Congress where he admitted that the Biden administration wanted them to remove COVID misinformation during the pandemic, and Zuckerberg’s admission that they “suppressed” the Hunter Biden laptop story (that only Republicans seemed to care about anyway.) Trump is trying to make this admission an issue, but the public genuinely doesn’t care, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Donald Trump is still desperately trying to get people to actually care about the letter that Mark Zuckerberg sent to the House Judiciary Committee last week where he admitted that, yeah, president Biden's administration did reach out to us in early 2021. And, you know, they wanted us to remove some of the COVID misinformation that was running rampant on our platform, Facebook. And we, we sometimes did, and we sometimes didn't at their request, Zuckerberg said, and he's just, he's just darn ashamed of the whole thing. Oh, and by the way, he also admitted, even though it wasn't related, uh, Facebook did kind of suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story, you know, and, uh, we, we regret that. He says, we, we shouldn't have done that. And when Zuckerberg sent the letter, most Americans didn't give a crap because we don't care. And it's obviously very politically motivated coming out right at this time.

Right. It's not difficult to see what Zuckerberg was trying to do here. Um, for somebody as smart as he is, this was, uh, painfully transparent. However, and you know what though, before I even continue, let me just say something here. The Biden administration, which by the way, this is something we've known for years now. They did reach out to Facebook and other social media companies with regard to covid misinformation that was taking place during a pandemic that was killing thousands of people per day. And they didn't direct them to remove any posts. They never said, you have to take this down. They said, here's some misinformation. Will you look and see if this violates your policies? Those were the requests. That's not an attack on freedom of speech. That is not censorship. That is the same thing that I as an independent user of Facebook could do.

I could send in the same complaint. So, no, I don't think it's a big deal. Not to mention the fact that we have something in this country called police powers when it comes to the health, safety and welfare of the American public. Elected officials actually do have a lot of grounds to almost temporarily suspend constitutional rights, which could also include First Amendment rights if it has to do with the health, safety and welfare of the American public. So even if what you they did you think was illegal, it's definitely not. So just have that to say about this whole Zuckerberg. Now, to continue in response to Zuckerberg's claim that yeah, we did things and we're not happy about it. Donald Trump got on social media and issued a direct threat to Mark Zuckerberg. He said, Jesus Christ. He would come to the Oval Office to see me and bring his very nice wife to dinners, be as nice as anyone could be, while always plotting, install shameful lock boxes in a true plot against the President.
