It was only weeks ago that a congressional report confirmed that the censorship schemes assembled and implemented by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, working with social media platforms, were "blatantly unconstitutional."

Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, already had admitted in a letter to Congress that he was censoring Americans on the orders of Biden.

In fact, he charged, "Senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor COVID-19 content, including humor & satire. … I believe the government pressure was wrong & I regret we were not more outspoken about it."

Now Facebook is putting action behind Zuckerberg's words, a video from Zuckerberg in which he promises to return to a constitutional standard.

"We're going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms. More specifically, we're going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with Community Notes similar to X, starting in the U.S," Zuckerberg announced.

Fox News reported the chief global affairs officer for Meta, Facebook's parent company, Joel Kaplan, joined its "Fox & Friends" broadcast.

He said, "This is a great opportunity for us to reset the balance in favor of free expression. As Mark says in that video, what we're doing is we're getting back to our roots and free expression."

Zuckerberg's "fact-checking," which often amounted to nothing more than a censorship of any opinion – or even fact – that disagreed with the agenda of American Democrats and other leftists on topics like COVID, elections and more, was installed in 2016 after the election and purportedly was to "manage" misinformation.

Executives said it was because of leftist political pressure to address what Democrats called misinformation, disinformation and malinformation, which even they admitted was true, but used in a way they didn't like.

"We went to independent, third-party fact-checkers," Kaplan told Fox News Digital. "It has become clear there is too much political bias in what they choose to fact-check because, basically, they get to fact-check whatever they see on the platform."

The censorship, he confirmed, is being ended "completely," and in its place with be a "community notes" plan similar to what Elon Musk installed on Twitter, now X, when he took it over.

"Instead of going to some so-called expert, it instead relies on the community and the people on the platform to provide their own commentary to something that they've read," Kaplan said. "We think that's a much better approach rather than relying on so-called experts who bring their own biases into the program."

President-elect Donald Trump has had repeated run-ins with social media companies' censorship his comments and opinions, and he's even been removed from some, following their adherence to the Biden censorship agenda. In response he created Truth Social.

But as he's taking over the White House in just days the political winds have shifted.

"We have a new administration coming in that is far from pressuring companies to censor and [is more] a huge supporter of free expression," Kaplan said.
