Zuckerberg Turns Facebook Full MAGA and Smears California Staff The Meta CEO said his company is ditching its fact-checkers and will copy one of Elon Musk’s changes to Twitter.

What an ingrate move to denigrate the only state that gave him the space and freedom to innovate. None of these tech bros could have done what they did anywhere else but in tolerant and inclusive places like California or Washington www.thedailybeast.com//zuckerberg-...

This is ridiculous. The Democrats have learned nothing. www-nbcnews-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.nbcn...
