Joe Biden is looking for cover after Rep. Jim Jordan reveals “smoking-gun documents” following this promise to Mark Zuckerberg
Last week Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) teetered on the edge of triggering a vote to hold Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in contempt of Congress.
But now, he’s holding off thanks to the company’s sudden decision to cooperate. But Joe Biden is looking for cover after Rep. Jim Jordan reveals “smoking-gun documents” following this promise to Mark Zuckerberg.If the Biden regime says ‘jump,’ left-wingers in Big Tech like Mark Zuckerberg jump
Rep. Jim Jordan is stirring up a wasps’ nest worth of controversy through his work as chair of the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. Now he says all that work has resulted in a major breakthrough.
Jordan has been doing his best to force the Leftists at Meta, Facebook’s parent company, to provide information about how the tech giant cooperated with Joe Biden’s White House to censor Americans during the pandemic.Jordan came close to holding Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in contempt of Congress before the company started cooperating.
“Based on Facebook’s newfound commitment to fully cooperate with the Committee’s investigation, the Committee has decided to hold contempt in abeyance,” Jordan wrote in a post on X (formerly, Twitter). He added a clear warning that Zuckerberg had better continue to cooperate, noting that he’s only holding off on the contempt vote “for now.”
“To be clear, contempt is still on the table and WILL be used if Facebook fails to cooperate in FULL,” Jordan added.
The Republican Congressman says he’s already obtained “smoking-gun documents” showing Facebook took marching orders from the Biden Regime when it came to censoring Americans.
Jordan unloads on Biden White House after getting internal documents dubbed the “Facebook Files” In a series of posts about the “Facebook Files” Jordan provided new information about the committee’s discoveries.
“Never-before-released internal documents subpoenaed by the Judiciary Committee PROVE that Facebook and Instagram censored posts and changed their content moderation policies because of unconstitutional pressure from the Biden White House,” Jordan wrote.
“During the first half of 2021, social media companies like Facebook faced tremendous pressure from the Biden White House—both publicly and privately—to crack down on alleged ‘misinformation,’” he went on to explain. “In April 2021, a Facebook employee circulated an email for Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and COO Sheryl Sandberg, writing: ‘We are facing continued pressure from external stakeholders, including the [Biden] White House’ to remove posts.”
Rep. Jordan says files “PROVE” the administration engaged in Social Media weaponization Jordan then pointed to an internal Facebook memo that stated the Biden administration was “outraged” that Facebook didn’t immediately delete a meme that clearly touched a nerve.
It featured a picture of actor Leonardo DiCaprio holding a cigarette and drink in one hand while pointing at something with the other.
Above DiCaprio’s picture, the text read “10 years from now you will be watching TV and hear….”
At the bottom of the meme, the text read like a line from a classic class action lawsuit ad, “Did you or a loved one take the covid vaccine? You may be entitled…”
One can only speculate as to why the Biden administration was so terrified of that meme.
According to the documentation uncovered, Facebook initially balked at censoring its users telling Biden senior advisor Andy Slavitt “removing content like that would represent a significant incursion into traditional boundaries of free expression in the US.” But, according to Jordan, Slavitt “disregarded the warning and the First Amendment.”
“What happened next? Facebook panicked,” Jordan explained. “In another April 2021 email, Brian Rice, Facebook’s VP of public policy, raised the concern that Slavitt’s challenge felt ‘very much like a crossroads for us with the [Biden] White House in these early days.’”
Jordan says Facebook quickly capitulated to pressure from the White House—and the House committee has only begun to reveal documentation revealing the extent to which Americans were censored as a result.
