Zuckerberg Admits FBI Induced Facebook to Censor Hunter Laptop Story | CLIP | Truth Over News

The FBI, I think, basically came to us, some folks on our team, and was like, hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert. We thought there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election. We have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump. Hi everyone, and welcome to Truth Over News. A few days ago, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg dropped a bombshell. Zuckerberg now claims that right before the 2020 presidential election, Facebook censored the Hunter Biden laptop story, which was entirely true and accurate, because of warnings they had received from the FBI. The FBI knew that the laptop story was real, because they themselves had Hunter's laptop in their possession since at least December of 2019. Any kind of collusion, coercion, or cooperation between government and media to censor Americans is a direct infringement of everyone's First Amendment rights. But what the FBI did is so much worse. It actively interfered in the 2020 election to gift the presidency to Joe Biden. In response to Zuckerberg's statement, the FBI issued a vague statement which, crucially, did not deny Zuckerberg's account. A few weeks ago, we reported on this show that the same crooked FBI agent who was responsible for the fraudulent Carter Page warrant, and for covering up Christopher Steele's lies, also shut down the Hunter Biden investigation. That agent, Brian Auten, falsely claimed that all the evidence of Biden family corruption was Russian disinformation. That was in August of 2020. Now we know that the FBI's election interference did not stop there. Shutting down the investigation into Hunter's laptop, and into all the incriminating evidence of Biden family corruption on the laptop, wasn't going to be enough. The FBI also needed to shut down any public discussion of Hunter's laptop in case its content somehow became public. And that is exactly what they did. The FBI first found out about Hunter's laptop in the summer of 2019, when the repair shop where Hunter had abandoned it notified them. At first, the FBI showed no interest, but after realizing how damaging it could be to Joe Biden, the FBI seized the laptop from the repair shop in December 2019. The FBI knew they could suppress any investigation of its contents, which is what they did. But the repair shop, in particular its owner, John Paul MacIsaac, was a liability. According to MacIsaac, the FBI threatened him to keep quiet about the laptop. But what if MacIsaac did not keep quiet? The FBI knew this might become a problem, and this is where Zuckerberg comes in. The FBI didn't need to worry too much about traditional media. Those outlets didn't need to be told to suppress the laptop story if and when it came out. They were all in the tank for Biden already. The real threat was social media. While social media companies like Facebook and Twitter were, and remain, just as much in the tank for Biden as the corporate media, their content is harder to police. Once citizens start discussing something online, you cannot put the genie back in the bottle. So what did the FBI do to prevent that from happening? Well, as Zuckerberg now admits, the FBI pre-emptively warned Facebook that the Russians were about to dump a load of disinformation. Zuckerberg made his claim last week on the Zuckerberg also admitted that Facebook censored the Hunter Biden laptop story in response to the FBI's warning. For its part, the FBI responded late on Friday night, a favourite time to bury bad news, admitting that it had indeed warned Facebook, as well as other social media companies. The FBI routinely notifies US private sector entities, including social media providers, of potential threat information so that they can decide how to better defend against threats. While the FBI insisted that it did not force Facebook to take any specific action, that is a vacuous and indeed a misleading statement. Everyone knows that if the FBI shows up at some company and warns about an impending dump of Russian disinformation, this will have a very strong coercive effect. It's difficult to imagine any company just ignoring the FBI's edict, especially if the company is pro-Biden to begin with. Despite what he now claims, Zuckerberg is of course not an innocent victim. We know Zuckerberg is a huge fan of censorship, having also colluded with Fauci in suppressing any information that ran counter to Fauci's narrative on COVID and its origin. Zuckerberg also admitted in 2020 that Facebook was collaborating with the intelligence community. Over the last few years, we've put a lot of effort into building partnerships with the intelligence community and election commissions around the world, as well as the other tech companies. So part of the normal security apparatus now is that we share intelligence and tips with each other. And who can forget that it was Zuckerberg who later spearheaded the drive to get rid of Trump with his so-called election fortification efforts. Zuckerberg personally meddled in the 2020 election by paying his agents, such as so-called non-profit groups, more than 400 million dollars to take over certain roles of government election offices. Zuckerberg alone spent almost as much money funding government election offices as the entire federal government spent on the 2020 election. Zuckerberg's payments were supposedly made to fill so-called funding gaps from the federal government, but the reality is that the Zucker Bucks, as they have become known, were distributed on a highly partisan basis with the aim of electing Biden and other Democrats. Zuckerberg essentially mounted a private takeover of government election offices and it affected all the key states that helped Biden win. In Wisconsin, the Zucker Bucks payments were later found to have violated bribery laws. A study also found that without those payments Trump would have easily prevailed in Wisconsin. In Michigan, Zucker Bucks were used to reshape election rules to help Democrats. In Georgia, 45 million dollars of Zucker Bucks were used to ensure a Biden win. Remarkably, even with the Zucker Bucks in play, Biden only won that state by 11,000 votes. Let's not kid ourselves. Despite what he says now, Zuckerberg wasn't duped. He didn't fall for an FBI plot. Zuckerberg would have found a way to suppress the Hunter laptop story even without getting instructions from the FBI. But the FBI gave him a convenient excuse and a heads-up which ensured that the censoring could start right away. For its part, the FBI now claims that they only gave Zuckerberg general warnings and did not specifically mention Hunter. That is like two crooks blaming each other, thereby ensuring that no one is held to account. It is eerily similar to the situation between infamous dossier author Christopher Steele and his supposed source Igor Danchenko, who both now claim that the other guy did it. After the dossier was exposed as a total fraud, Steele started blaming Danchenko and, in turn, Danchenko is blaming Steele, claiming that the dossier did not reflect what he actually told Steele.
