A full FBI investigation often followed the "leads" that came from Facebook.

Despite the mountain of data they found no domestic terrorists — not one criminal or violent Trump supporter — only full blooded patriots.  They must have been disappointed.   "It was a waste of our time" said an insider.

So Facebook has become a wing of the Government. Facebook needs Big Government to protect their Section 230 legal loophole and Big Government needs Facebook to protect the voters from the ugly truth. Nice racket if you can get it.

The old Sovinformburo must have longed for a searchable database of private conversations. If only the USSR had Facebook.

As the commenter Deplorable at the NY Post says "First thing is Facebook must be told that they can no longer call their private messenger private. "

Thank goodness for the New York Post. Thank goodness for brave whistleblowers.
