This story really ought to be blowing up. Mark Zuckerberg told Joe Rogan that the FBI got involved in the censoring of the Hunter Biden laptop story. Apparently, the FBI gave Facebook a heads-up about an upcoming disinformation dump from the Russians. And of course, it took five to seven days for the fact-checkers to determine if the New York Post’s story was true. At least Facebook didn’t lock the Post out of its account for six weeks because it wouldn’t take the story down.
The FBI rigged the 2020 election. https://t.co/GjRjMVUY8T

Wow.
Actual censorship. https://t.co/iCZ4AUtnn0— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) August 25, 2022
Break the FBI into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds. It cannot be saved. We cannot compromise on this. It’s too dangerous. It must go. https://t.co/Nb2WH2Tzy8

The New York Post story broke in October 2020. The FBI had Hunter's laptop since at least December 2019.
Knowing full well that the laptop was real, the FBI told Facebook to censor the story as Russian disinformation. https://t.co/2QbcyX2aIE

The extent to which this story radicalized parts of the right is still severely underestimated. https://t.co/VhDQGdIyN7

Remember the FBI had the laptop from late 2019. They knew perfectly well the NY Post’s stories were genuine. Election interference. https://t.co/N99dnEwPb0

The FBI is targeting right wing accounts through social media censorship that share true info that undermines the regime’s agenda – we get punished for speaking truth like in a third world country pic.twitter.com/aWWzze9oUK

The simplified version: FBI tells @facebook to censor the distribution of specific information as relates to Hunter Biden’s laptop, and Facebook does. How exactly does this not make Facebook a state actor for the specific action? https://t.co/UD6xF4MTBF

Tell me again how the FBI is redeemable. Tell me again how Big Tech conglomerates are just private companies. https://t.co/TStIg9eKtg

This story ought to be huge. And as someone said above, be mindful of all the Principled Conservatives™ out there who say you can’t back the blue while at the same time criticize the FBI.
