In a telltale escalation in Big Tech censorship, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube all removed a video on COVID-19 that President Trump had promoted Monday evening.
The video garnered over 17 million views during the eight hours it was hosted on Facebook, until it was taken down from Facebook and banned from YouTube. The video was of a press conference in D.C., held by the group America’s Frontline Doctors and organized and sponsored by the Tea Party Patriots.
It was the top-performing Facebook post in the world Monday afternoon.
The press conference featured Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) and frontline doctors sharing their views and opinions on coronavirus and the medical response to the pandemic.
Why was this controversial? Evidently, all videos that contradict the leftist media’s COVID agenda and fear tactics are being deleted by big social media.
Yesterday’s press conference still appears in full on some platforms, such as BitChute.
What is Big Tech so afraid of? Even liberal NewsWeek ran a story today, making the same arguments about Hydroxychloroquine:
The Key to Defeating COVID-19 Already Exists. We Need to Start Using It.”
NBC News reported that late Monday night, Trump retweeted the tweet from Dr. Immanuel, one of the doctors featured in yesterday’s presser, that said: “Covid has cure. America wake up.”
Twitter said early Tuesday morning, “Tweets with the video are in violation of our COVID-19 misinformation policy.”
Trump also retweeted posts defending the use of the drug hydroxychloroquine, including one that accused Dr. Anthony Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, of misleading the public by dismissing the drug.
Dr. Fauci got a little defensive about Trump’s tweet. “I have not been misleading the public under any circumstances,” Fauci responded on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Tuesday morning when asked for his reaction to Trump’s retweets.
Dr. Anthony Fauci to @GStephanopoulos: “I don’t tweet. I don’t even read them so I don’t really want to go there. I just will continue to do my job no matter what comes out because I think it’s very important.” https://t.co/JgCvhTifYS pic.twitter.com/BJGIqwSjuT

Meanwhile, Dr. Fauci is enjoying his celebrity status while the rest of the country goes through the hell of a psychological lockdown, based primarily on his flip-flopping scientific expertise, which tends to go as far to the left as his baseball:
