Biden Unleashes Fury on Meta’s Fact-Checking Elimination, Zuckerberg Fires Back with Shocking Censorship Revelations
In a explosive clash between the White House and Big Tech, President Joe Biden has lambasted Meta’s decision to scrap its professional fact-checking program, labeling it “really shameful.” Meanwhile, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg dropped a bombshell, revealing alleged attempts by the Biden administration to censor COVID-19 content. This heated exchange has ignited a firestorm of debate over free speech, government overreach, and the role of social media in shaping public discourse.
Biden’s Outrage: A Desperate Attempt to Control the Narrative?
Well, folks, it looks like Sleepy Joe’s finally woken up to the fact that he can’t control everything that’s said on the internet. In a move that reeks of desperation, Biden has come out swinging against Meta’s decision to ditch its professional fact-checkers in favor of user-driven community notes. But let’s be real here – this isn’t about protecting the truth. This is about protecting the narrative.
During a press conference following a speech on his so-called “economic progress” (yeah, right), Biden couldn’t help but show his true colors. He railed against Meta’s decision, calling it “really shameful.” But what’s truly shameful is the government thinking it has any right to dictate what private companies do with their platforms.

Zuckerberg Drops the Mic: Exposing the Biden Administration’s Censorship Crusade
Just when you thought this story couldn’t get any juicier, Mark Zuckerberg decided to spill the beans on The Joe Rogan Experience. And boy, did he deliver a knockout punch to the Biden administration’s facade of righteousness. Zuckerberg revealed that Biden’s team had been aggressively pressuring Meta to censor COVID-19-related content, including memes and posts critical of vaccines.
“Basically, these people from the Biden administration would call up our team and, like, scream at them and curse. It just got to this point where we were like, ‘No, we’re not gonna, we’re not gonna take down things that are true. That’s ridiculous.'” – Mark Zuckerberg – Source
Let that sink in, folks. The same administration that’s now crying foul over Meta’s decision to reduce content moderation was apparently trying to strong-arm the company into removing content they didn’t like. Talk about hypocrisy!
The Great Meme War: Zuckerberg Stands Firm on Humor
In a refreshing display of backbone, Zuckerberg refused to cave to the administration’s demands when it came to humorous content. When pressed to remove a meme featuring Leonardo DiCaprio, Zuckerberg stood his ground, stating, “No we’re not we’re not going to take down humor.” It’s about time someone in Silicon Valley remembered the importance of a good laugh!
“No we’re not we’re not going to take down humor” – Mark Zuckerberg –
This stance by Zuckerberg is a breath of fresh air in an increasingly stifling online environment. While the left continues its crusade against anything remotely offensive, it’s encouraging to see at least one tech giant recognize the value of free expression and humor.
The Real Shame: Biden’s Assault on American Values
In his tirade against Meta, Biden had the audacity to claim that the move away from fact-checking was “contrary to American justice.” But let’s get one thing straight – what’s truly un-American is a government that tries to control what information its citizens can access.
“The whole idea of walking away from factchecking as well as not reporting anything having to do with discrimination regarding … I find it to be contrary to American justice,” the outgoing president told reporters during a press call on Friday. “Telling the truth matters.” – Joe Biden –
Biden’s crocodile tears over “truth-telling” ring hollow when you consider his administration’s attempts to censor content they deemed inconvenient. The real threat to American justice is not the lack of fact-checkers, but the erosion of our First Amendment rights by an overreaching government.
The Bottom Line: A Victory for Free Speech
While the Democrats and their media lapdogs are howling about the dangers of reduced content moderation, the rest of us should be celebrating. Meta’s decision to move away from biased oversight is a step in the right direction. It’s high time we returned to a marketplace of ideas where individuals can think for themselves, rather than relying on self-appointed arbiters of truth.
As we move forward, let’s remember what truly makes America great – our unwavering commitment to free speech, even when it’s uncomfortable or inconvenient. And to Sleepy Joe and his censorship-happy cronies, we say: hands off our social media! The American people are smart enough to decide for themselves what to believe, without your “help.”
