Facebook has deleted a post by President Donald Trump for the first time, saying it violated its policy against spreading misinformation about the coronavirus.
Crazy man!
Trump accidentally spoke truth.
realDonaldTrump's saying: 'Even if children are not immune, they should prepare to sacrifice themselves to glorify the Dear Leader Trump.'

😂😂😂😂😂😂🍾🍾🍾🍾👍👍👍👍
Wow, what does this Facebook think of itself? Censoring the president of the US and violating the first amendment of the constitution on freedom of speech.

tedlieu This should make every parent and every AMERICAN concerned.
iamscottblade Now delete tRump please...
tedlieu Trump knows more about it than you or Loo.
IF YOUR CHILDREN DIE, IT IS WHAT IT IS Without a certain degree of skillful and aggressive acknowledgment of the horrific conditions Donald Trump created, some children will simply not survive.

Hmmmm is this journalism or are you biased? Just asking... because journalism is DEAD.
👍
Social media platforms are shadow banning and preventing free speech. If Facebook wants to be an ‘editor with a viewpoint’ they should monitor all accounts and not target certain users who express political beliefs that platform moderators disagree with.
HoldemMedia_Dan too bad they can't delete Trump...
Hopefully this is the start of both organizations treating the prez and his campaign Like the rest of us users
It’s because The CDC says children make up a sliver of the COVID-19 cases in the country he is just repeating what the CDC has already stated more fake news
drkarajan Let the cyber war begin! 💣🔥🔥🔥
GovJVentura So.....you mean......Donald Trump is......fake news...?
cooperchip1 ABOUT DAMN TIME!!! 🙄🙄🙄
At last
How can he just say that? Isn't there a possibility that they might have the virus and not show it? And carry the damn thing for weeks, months, or even years ( and surface later).
JuliaDavisNews Goff. It’s about damn time😡
Fakebook is part of the censoring of USA, the President is correct APP report Mortality (43 states and NYC reported)* Children were 0%-0.8% of all COVID-19 deaths, and 20 states reported zero child deaths In states reporting, 0%-0.3% of all child COVID-19 cases resulted in death
I guess there's a first time for everything. Now, everyone is patiently waiting for the next time.
JuliaDavisNews Finally!
Media & others are responsible to check their facts, with medical & scientific community as their source before commenting. Censorship prevents open discussion & understanding of facts See statement paper from Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto stating evidence mounting children...
GovJVentura Deleted my FB two months ago, Twitter is next if they keep their shit up
All Praise Facebook
Will they now also start deleting the posts by men claiming they are women?

GovJVentura Pr. Didier Raoult, a world renowned epidemiologist, explained in a recent interview that children't immunity is likely to be associated to cross exposure to 4 coronaviruses commonly found in the environment. It decreases after the age of 5 but protects until the age 25 to 30.
🤣😂😂😂😂
Well hello 1984
but all the other LIES were deemed OK ..
Good!
Thank you, Facebook. We as a country will never recover from Covid-19 infections, maimings, and deaths until misinformation is removed. We need to look out for one another using the best available science, medicine, and epidemiological evidence.
Good
ScribbledCoffee But Trump knows more than the scientists and medical experts do.
About Fuckin Time
Twitter and Facebook are dishonest and un-American. They hate liberty and freedom! Children are virtually immune to this ChinaVirus showing very little ill affects from it. Rarely pass it on to adults.
GovJVentura Death rate among 0-17: 0%. I'd say thats pretty immune.
Truth, sanity . its like fresh air ...THANK YOU‼️‼️
Children are virtually immune
maggieNYT
President Trump when you lose (and you will) be it by a single vote or 20 million YOU'RE LEAVING. Every single minute an American dies on your watch.There's nothing great about that ! TrumpVirus2020 TrumpHasNoPlan trumpscovidiots
ConsequencesForTrump
ABOUT TIME!
*Team Trump, but yeah, we all know he'll tell any lie to save his failing campaign. Here's hoping there will be more, actually substantive ConsequencesForTrump
maggieNYT It took a Pandemic to bring some moral introspection....people had to die before a glorified advertising platform did the bare minimum . That's the power of greed.
The fact that it’s the *first* time is despicable and disgusting. Platforms like Facebook and Twitter should be held responsible for allowing misinformation that has literally led to DEATH. They share a portion of the blame that should rightfully be attributed to Trump.
Zuckerberg is an opportunist he sees the tide turning
“Virtually.” Is that equal to “it is what it is?” ItIsWhatItIs
davidfrum Finally.
Censorship. I think the Federal Elections Commission needs to investigate to determine if equal censorship is happening to Joe Biden. If not, then Facebook and Twitter should be fined
I guess as long as facebook and AP are filtering what information we can have access to all will be well. OR NOT.
Kids and young people are not immune to the coronavirus! One more time : Kids and young people are not immune to the coronavirus! Trump is ignorant and misleading USA after having more than 157000 deaths! Vote!
The first of many deletions we hope.
Glad facebook knows more than the experts that are working with his administration
Lol wow, took them long enough
HEY RepMattGaetz lol.😂 Facebook did it too 😂😂😂😂😂Zuckerberg just went threw the ringer on this issue so they too are stopping the spread of misinformation.. even if it's the President. So you screaming where is the justice department is like Trump screaming Law & Order😕
nicole_bertrand Uh oh Zuck’s in trouble
T-rump lies people die! Smh
tedlieu Finally!
What - do you mean POTUS can’t make official statements from his “gut feeling” 🤷🏼♀️
I see litigation in social media’s future regarding censorship
maggieNYT About 3 1/2 years to late
About time.
tedlieu Wow
davidfrum 0.2% of the deaths were under 24yo.(CDC) In China data. Only 1 in 10,000 children (0-9) diagnosed with covid actually died. If we assume 10x more children infected and never tested, that’s 1 per 100,000 infections. These numbers r lower than flu. Less risky than flu.
tedlieu It’s a start.
tedlieu When the internet...yes, the internet...calls you out for lying...you’re a liar.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ................................................ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
His cult will cry about being censored. 🤪
OETAOK Trump is an absolute idiot. You just should not be a leader and say irresponsible things like that. I mean, you’re winning anyway, your president, just keep your mouth shut. idiot 6bankruptcies
GYMObrad Thank you Twitter!!
Truth is whatever the left says it is.
tedlieu Good. realDonaldTrump is an idiot.
Well, he is full of shit y'know...
Facebook needs to chill out they keep limiting free speech and violating the constitution
This must have taken 5 days and 29 FB meetings to accomplish
Man, this is dangerous. Will Facebook also sensor comments from oligarchs, other government officials, foreign enemies? This is sad. Let people decide for themselves.
mUh FrEeDoM oF sPeEcH
Tell that to the families who list children. lyingtrump
And just like that Trump allows TikTok to continue operating on its own in the US.
When is Trump going to be deleted?
ITS ABOUT TIME!!!!!
About F in time
Outstanding.
Well damn...
donisdumb, dangerously dumb
tedlieu FacebookFriendsOfCCP
tedlieu How bad do you have to be to trigger Facebook?
Virtually immune is not immune. Virtually immune meaning very very low risk. Same as has been determined by CDC and almost every scientific study produced. We have entered a new era in social media. Congress should revoke all of the legal protections they enjoy.
I love it Facebook knows more about Covid than the president. Facebook and Twitter is censorship and needs to be regulated SenateGOP and HouseGOP need to take action. realDonaldTrump
Which is the same claim put out early on by doctors. Which one of the commie checkers is a medical pro to decide that as being false
I don’t think he has any desire to get re-elected. He’s just screwing with us to see what he can get away with. A couple weeks ago it was send fed troops to cities against GOP philosophy. A few days ago it was supporting nutty Stella Immanuel. Today it’s the hell with the kids.
Twitter good for you realDonaldTrump
tedlieu
OMG - who is he going force FB to sell to? Maybe Kodak?
tedlieu realDonaldTrump VP GOP what are you trying to do? Kill more than 160,000 people? You all are immoral evil liars cowards- cadet bone spurs bunker baby needs to resign now
DRoseTV that's hilarious
Good for Facebook. Trump is too dumb to even realise he's spreading false information. A child would do better.
It’s an official account, so he can’t spread lies on it ! There’s a huge difference between immune and asymptomatic ! That’s why sending kids to school to soon will get more adults infected and we will never be able to contain this virus ! All of his advice has backfired !
But they are virtually immune.
Even erroneous speech is protected by the first amendment. What Facebook is doing is wrong.
tedlieu
maggieNYT I can only imagine the joy someone had deleting that post at work today.
My friend took her son to his pediatrician today for a sports physical, and the physician told the mom EXACTLY THE SAME THING! The doctor said the child didn’t need to wear a mask either.
Is Facebook a expert on the Corona virus
JAMA: Our analyses suggest children younger than 5 years with mild to moderate COVID-19 have high amounts of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in their nasopharynx compared with older children and adults.
tedlieu Take your BS lies and shove them..He was right!
It's funny that Americans are so stupid they need companies & government to intervene b/c they lack intellect & critical thinking skills to decipher BS lol. Also, who & what gets considered 'misinformation'?
Thank you Facebook for finally growing a pair
tedlieu They won't let Trump back on Twitter until he removes the his Covid lies. TrumpInTwitterTimeout Delightful!!
tedlieu His campaign account.
Well done, such misinformation can literally kill
When Facebook and Twitter became the medical authority to tell us what we want
tedlieu Both of you are morons for promoting false news.
tedlieu I can hear Mark crying
tedlieu Has Facebook stock been dropping? Are they trying to distance themselves now? Either way, too little too late.
OK, now they are responsible for all content on their platform.
I wouldn’t mind if Trumpers boycott Facebook 🤷♀️
tedlieu
tedlieu It’s about time‼️
ps9714 Little late, but hey, better late than never.
tedlieu Even though he was right. Ted Lieu lies everyday and no one says a damn word!
My question is why now vs all the other falsehoods he's posted.
Except he is right
That’s laughable! Since when is Facebook the expert on what is misinformation or not? They seem to miss a lot of fake news coming from Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Shumer and all the rest of the swamp.
That's one for the broken watch
tedlieu And NewYorkStateAG has an announcement tomorrow 👀
Facebook never bite the hand that feeds you
Way to censor the president, its a free country I dont need social media platforms controlling the message , oh wait... People a free to come to their own conclusions. Its a slippery slope when companies are intentinally trying to control the what you see.
Now they are publishers.
maggieNYT Not Facebook's place. Time to revoke their tax exemptions and lawsuit protections.
It’s about time. He needs to be held accountable for his misleading statements. So many people have suffered due to his lies.
Fuck Facebook
Can they shut down the blmlie while they’re censoring
selectedwisdom I scrolled through the first 10 posts of my newsfeed today, for the first time since April. Just a cessspool of bullshit and propaganda. Maybe I’ll log in again next year, but now I don’t see why I would want to
About TIME
F-ING finally. The rest of us get blocked and banned for the slightest thing. He should be subjected to the same Terms.
If FB millennials with no medical degree do not see a large difference between children and adults with respect to covid, THEY need to be deleted. The immune system of children is much more capable of defeating this virus than adults. 3 deaths in children vs 156,000 in adults
Can the shut down the blmlie too
About time.

Finally!
It's because Zuckerberg's wife is a pediatrician.
Mr. Snowflake is gunna be soooooo mad! Surprised there hasn't already been a 14-part tweetstorm where IMPOTUS says he is going to sue. And charge them with voter intimidation and illegal interference and whatever else his syphilis-addled brain can think up.
Wow!!! Took you long enoughFB
maggieNYT It's about time FB did anything to stop trump's lies.
Ok, so it's nice to know Zuckerberg draws the line somewhere. Interesting that his somewhere is 'advocating child endangerment.'
Shut Facebook down!
Censorship
JackJackington Wow! Just like a miracle. Make it all go away.
Marie660816 In unrelated news, Trump had decided to sign an executive order banning Facebook in the United States.
Facebook is FAKE SOCIAL MEDIA !! 8( FACEBOOK 'FACT CHECKERS' SHOULD RESEARCH IF 'FACEBOOK SUCKS' THEY WILL SOON FIND THAT TO BE THE TRUTH !! 8(
They would delete Biden’s posts, but he doesn’t know how. And you wouldn’t know if Biden is lying as he can’t complete a coherent thought.
But today Facebook would not remove remarks about hoping that the vice President of the United States is killed! But they did give me a 30 day ban for this! So stop pretending that Facebook is an any way fair!
Sadly 86 children, aged 20 and under have died of COVID. Do you know how many 12 and under died of vehicle accidents? Way more. Wonder what percentage 86 young people represent?
Maybe the oresudent has info beyond Fauci
davidfrum One has to make it look good after a day of TikTok/Reels and trump leaning IG algorithms. Just sayin.
Election interference.
Facebook Day late and a dollar short.
REMINDER... CoronavirusPandemic TrumpSpreadsLies
bad_tits The people replying to this supporting govt officials being censored by social media sites is pathetic. If twitter were far right and censored obama youd be threatening every staff member you could contact
Good for them!
TheWarMonitor Yet this BS was also aired on live TV
Based on a journalist or medical pov.
About time Facebook does something right. Lets hope its not the last Trump post that is deleted.
Interesting because the data shows the statement is actually correct based on what we've seen so far. More children in the US have died from the flu this past season than Covid 19. Look it up. Don't believe me, check into the CDC director's tweets.
In Georgia over 200 children tested positive for coronavirus after going to a short summer camp. Over half the campers got sick. The gop needs to stop lying and saying kids are immune.
They are
🤓
Miracles never cease.
Facebook know EXACTLY what they're doing and this is certainly not discrediting Frumps msg to his base, alas; censoring it only INCITES them, further. Frump & certainly FB know this, they laugh whilst admisistoring their daily brainwashing. Evil MF's 🖕
Children are virtually immune to this virus ...
It’s finally happening

What's Facebook?
maggieNYT That Trump .... such a kidder
OMG
Obviously he’s right and Zuckerburg is the enemy of the people.
maggieNYT Too little, and way too late.

This will be the demise of FB
maggieNYT It’s about time.
I’d like to thank Facebook for doing the senate’s duties.
45 is unfit for the presidency under any circumstances let alone a pandemic. How do people still not see this?!!
davidfrum Finally. jack. You need to take a strong stance in all of his damaging Tweets that either threaten live, ruin lives, or threaten our Democracy. Enough
They should DELETE OBAMA we never got to KEEP our DR's
Finally, realDonaldTrump has seen consequences for his deceitful ways. 4NoTrump
Facebook should not be censoring anyone. They are the real political meddlers, not the Russians.
Better late than never?
maggieNYT Dumb realDonaldTrump
But TwitterSupport leaves the same video up
'Spreading misinformation' pretty much relates to ALL of Trump's posts. Just ban him. He is useless.
Good!
See Facebook was that so hard? Now do more.
maggieNYT We need to delete this president. Permanently.
Oh and everyone will scream censorship or freedom of speech. Social media sites are private companies with ToS agreements. They can do what they want. You want freedom, go start your own site.
JimLaPorta So their line is trying to get parents to risk the lives of their children? I guess we at least know a line exists.
All of his posts need to be deleted, and needs his account closed!
maggieNYT It’s about time. Facebook should have deleted a lot of posts in the past.
This is unprovable by Facebook almost immune. Words matter unlikely to have severe response. Bias bull
It’s about time! WomenAgainstTrump
Facebook needs to learn the TRUTH about coronavirus, and not act like they have not learned anything new. What the president tweeted was the TRUTH. Sciene has found that kids are 'virtually ' immune to the virus. That is a fact whether Democrats like it or not BanFacebook
true_axis_order they're not immune to the virus, they're in the lowest risk for any issues.
maggieNYT About freaking time.
Facebook needs to be investigated. How f’n dare they. Biased POS
If every post of his was deleted for 'misinformation', there wouldn't be anything left.
Money talks. This is probably because of the July ad boycott, which some companies extended into August. FB doesn't deserve any kudos for doing the right thing - finally.
hmm, my FB boycotting might be ending soon, but need more examples.
You do realise that he most likely meant SYMPTOMS, which is TRUE?
Trump might nuke Facebook!😜 😂
Do they not realize this has the opposite effect.This makes people want to find out about it more and it’s the net,you can’t truly delete anything.All this does is annoy him and make him go on more about it. It accomplishes nothing.Meanwhile Khomeini talks about destroying Israel
About damn time
Pretty easy to see for yourself
About time Facebook showed some balls.
Guess the scientists lied then
maggieNYT Its about effin’ time!
Statistics prove trump correct
Cool. DeleteFacebook
Most irresponsible president EVER!
They are
Pretty dangerous for POTUS to spread CDC guidance. FB is 🗑
DeleteFacebook
After how many views?
It’s about time Facebook. You have the money-grow some integrity and ethics!
Hmmm this is incredible a message of misinformation emanating from the President of United States of America
Can they delete trump?
Who the fuck elected Zickerhead
Oh boy, Fat Donnie is giving medical advice again.
Time to delete trump’s accounts
