Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg slammed Biden Administration officials who would “scream” and “curse” at executives at the social media giant during the COVID-19 pandemic, demanding that even “true” posts critical of the mandated vaccine be banned.
In a wide-ranging video interview with popular podcast host Joe Rogan, Zuckerberg came down hard on the Biden White House’s attempts to censor all opposition to the government’s vaccine program.

“While they were trying to push that program, they also tried to censor anyone who was basically arguing against it. And they pushed us super hard to take down things that honestly were true,” Zuckerberg told Rogan.
Zuckerberg, who heads Meta — the parent company of Facebook and Instagram — explained that, at the outset of the pandemic, he and his executives decided that government health authorities should be granted “a little bit of deference” concerning content moderation.
He indicated to Rogan that he soon became troubled by the Biden Administration’s demands.
“They basically pushed us and said anything that says that vaccines might have side effects, you need to take down,” he said. “And I was just like well, we’re not going to do that.”
“These people from the Biden Administration would call up our team and scream at them and curse.”

‘It was brutal’
After Joe Biden publicly claimed that so-called misinformation on social media was “killing people,” Zuckerberg said that “all these different agencies and branches of government basically just started investigating, coming after our company. It was brutal.”
“It was brutal,” he repeated.
