    Funny how Zuckerberg was bitching about Biden putting pressure on him for Covid misinformation on Facebook a few days ago, then this happens.

    Not that the thought of Zuck fending for himself in a prison yard isn’t kind of hilarious, but a former President, current Republican candidate for Presidential office talking this way is incredibly chilling. Is Trump experiencing an age related mental health episode?

    Vote Kamala Harris if you want an adult in charge.

  3. ***From Rolling Stone’s Nikki McCann Ramirez:***

    *In an upcoming book, the former president continues to spread election conspiracies about the Meta CEO*

    Donald Trump wrote a book, and true to form it contains some deeply unbalanced textual musings.

    According to Politico, the coffee table book — titled Saving America — accuses Mark Zuckerberg of plotting to usurp the 2020 election in favor of President Joe Biden, and warns that the Meta CEO will “spend the rest of his life in prison” if he crosses Trump again.

    The book, which will be released next week, features a photo of Zuckerberg and Trump during an undated meeting in the White House. According to Politico, in the caption under the photo Trump claims that Zuckerberg “would come to the Oval Office to see me. He would bring his very nice wife to dinners, be as nice as anyone could be, while always plotting to install shameful Lock Boxes in a true PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT.”

    “We are watching him closely,” Trump adds, “and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

  4. How about Elon? He seems to be using his platform to interfere with an election as well …

    This is a line from an actual book, written by an actual president.

    Threaten tech billionaires that have a huge influence over censorship of data. Great idea, Don.

  7. Is Trump also going to jail himself for life while he’s righting the wrongs? That would be en election campaign I’d like to see. 🙂

  8. On the flipside, no one would mess with Zuckerberg in prison, All he has to do is stare at any antagonistic force in there, and when his second eyelids blink, that should stave off any one seeking to cause him harm.

    Hardest part will be maintaining the humidity of the cell.

    This is election interference. He’s telling the CEO of a social media platform that if he doesn’t get preferential treatment, he’s gonna jail him. Preferential treatment gives a candidate all kinds of cover to do all kinds of bad or even criminal behavior. It helps trump spread disinformation. It helps trump by promoting his supporters, and demoting content from supporters of his opponent.

    We really need to update this country’s laws and regulations to cover social media and tech fields as a whole. I’m so tired of lawmakers being tech dumb.

  11. There ya go, all y’all trump supporters. He’s on your side, until he isn’t, and then your freedom is subject to his whims and caprice. You cool with that?

    One side wants you to pay a little more, the other side will throw you in prison for life if you don’t sing their praises every single day. Yeah, what a difficult choice. I’m not sure why these people keep thinking they’ll be safe in an autocracy. It must be an addiction thing. There is no “rush” or “gamble” in the current system for them, but in an oligarchy they can practically be royalty one moment and thrown out a window or poisoned the next. Maybe they want that thrill.

    Former president of the United States doesn’t understand middle school social studies. Not a great look.

    If Zuckerberg had a set of balls on him his response would be: “bring it you decrepit pile of shit, I’m wealthier and more powerful than you”

  15. ballskindrapes on

    He is only saying this because Elon sucks the mushroom, thus he dislike Zuckerberg now.

    Just so sad and pathetic behavior from anyone, but from trump it’s 10x more ridiculous

    The country really needs Trump to exit the national stage. His toxicity has already torn the country in half. If we let him continue, he will drag everything down his dark rabbit hole. They need to turn Mar-a-Lago into an assisted living facility, give him an office where he can pretend he is president and never let him leave.

    Imagine if Kamala threatened to jail Musk for life if he helped Trump. Both sides are not the same

    “Fake billionaire running for president threatens actual billionaire with life in prison. How this is bad for Kamala.”

  19. Who had “Defending Zuckerberg” on their 2024 ‘Election-ocalypse’ Bingo card? I didn’t. Anyone?

  21. Meanwhile, my Facebook (that I rarely check anymore) is completely overrun with conservative propaganda. Their algorithm is so slanted towards Trump that I’m getting flooded with it. I’m literally a professional Democratic organizer.
