Summary
Zuckerberg's admission that the FBI colluded with the Deep State to influence the 2020 election is not a victory for free speech, but a defeat for the deep state and its corrupt institutions. The only lesson the Democratic Party and Deep State have learned is that censorship works. Once the secret police start rigging elections, you must take swift action or things get bad fast.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg released a statement Monday
00:00:33.220
acknowledging that Facebook actively censored information on COVID-19
00:00:39.320
due to direct pressure from the federal government.
00:00:42.500
Facts previously revealed by Elon Musk through the Twitter files
00:00:46.420
had already made it clear that government agencies like the FBI, CIA, and NSA
00:00:51.280
were regularly demanding the censorship of American citizens by social media companies.
00:00:56.160
But the letter from Zuckerberg sent to the House Judiciary Committee
00:01:02.020
The official Republican House Judiciary account on Twitter celebrated this admission
00:01:10.580
Despite the admission that government actors use censorship to interfere in the 2020 election
00:01:21.960
The only lesson the Democratic Party and Deep State have learned is that censorship works.
00:01:29.220
Once the secret police start rigging elections, you must take swift action or things get bad fast.
00:01:35.980
That's exactly what's happened in the United States.
00:01:38.240
Zuckerberg's letter revealed that leading up to the 2020 election,
00:01:47.120
the FBI lied to Facebook executives by claiming that any story about the Biden family's connection
00:01:53.380
to the Ukrainian energy conglomerate Burisma was Russian disinformation.
00:01:58.740
Facebook took this warning seriously and suppressed the story on its platform,
00:02:03.280
denying millions of voters the information they needed to make an informed choice during the election.
00:02:09.680
Other social media companies took similar actions.
00:02:13.000
Twitter went so far as to lock the account of the New York Post for its story about Hunter Biden's laptop.
00:02:19.080
We know now that that story was true, and the FBI knew it was true as well.
00:02:24.120
However, the FBI wanted to rig the election in favor of Joe Biden,
00:02:27.380
so agency officials used their position of power to lie to corporations that control the flow of information in the United States
00:02:38.500
Zuckerberg's apparent change of heart is at least theoretically great news.
00:02:42.560
The billionaire wields enormous influence over how Americans interact with information.
00:02:48.060
He also spent hundreds of millions of dollars in 2020 to reshape local election infrastructure
00:02:54.300
to favor the Democratic Party's machine politics, as Molly Hemingway outlined in her book, Rigged.
00:03:01.440
If Zuckerberg now feels compelled to admit his previous bias and commit to neutrality in the upcoming election,
00:03:08.520
it could shift the results of a close contest all by itself.
00:03:12.340
Of course, it's entirely possible that Zuckerberg is lying and still sympathizes with the Democrats.
00:03:17.780
However, if he feels pressured to play things closer down the middle, well, that's significant.
00:03:22.300
None of this should be seen as a win for the GOP and its representatives in Congress.
00:03:29.300
Both FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Director Paul Abbott
00:03:33.480
appeared to perjure themselves on live television
00:03:36.360
during their testimony about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
00:03:40.920
We now know for a fact that the FBI acted to influence the election
00:03:47.480
which then censored critical information leading up to the 2020 election.
00:03:51.380
Democrats don't hesitate to bring charges against their political enemies,
00:03:56.600
as shown by their efforts to imprison Donald Trump for the rest of his life on absurdly manufactured charges.
00:04:02.760
Yet even when Republicans have direct evidence of wrongdoing by the FBI,
00:04:07.460
the most their supporters can hope for is a social media post declaring a false victory.
00:04:12.300
This feels an awful lot like an embarrassing echo of George W. Bush's mission accomplished speech
00:04:19.780
during the war on terror, though at least in that case, some jihadis were actually killed.
00:04:25.800
Many conservatives may not even know what constitutes a victory at this point,
00:04:31.580
A victory occurs when those that violated the law and corrupted institutions critical to the rule of law
00:04:41.880
Simply revealing that the FBI lied to social media companies to manipulate the election
00:04:46.660
and successfully install their preferred candidate without any repercussions is not a victory.
00:04:53.540
When I found out my friend got a great deal on a designer dress from Winners,
00:05:03.480
Like that woman over there with the Italian leather handbag.
00:05:25.520
All this admission really does is show that the GOP is a fake opposition,
00:05:31.020
powerless to prevent abusive manipulation by a modern Praetorian guard.
00:05:36.740
Only life-altering consequences will stop the abusive actions of an elite class
00:05:42.100
that feels entitled to shape the nation as its members see fit.
00:05:46.320
And the GOP's repeated refusal to even threaten these type of actions lends itself to a very simple conclusion.
00:05:55.940
The Republicans aren't opposed to what's happening.
00:06:02.920
They do not have separate incentives, loyalties, or motivations.
00:06:16.640
To call the FBI a rogue organization would be a misnomer.
00:06:20.720
A rogue actor is one that is no longer operating in accordance with the will of the government.
00:06:25.680
But the FBI is not working against the wishes of the American government.
00:06:29.840
It is instead shaping that very government from the top down.
00:06:34.980
The FBI can lie about the attempted assassination of a presidential candidate,
00:06:39.660
lie to media organizations, and censor critical information to alter the outcome of elections,
00:06:44.920
and intimidate and incarcerate their political opposition.
00:06:52.560
A reign defined by the ability to lie and to terrorize the American public.
00:06:58.280
By every available definition, this is tyranny.
00:07:03.280
Republicans are clearly afraid to challenge the FBI in any meaningful way.
00:07:11.240
as he seems more interested in building a shiny new headquarters for the federal police agency
00:07:25.080
then someone in the GOP needs to take this issue seriously right now.
00:07:30.740
The FBI must be dismantled from the top to the bottom,
00:07:44.520
law and order in the United States will continue to degrade,
00:07:55.400
not the complicit clown show that the Republicans have been running.
