It's being reported this afternoon that Mark Zuckerberg criticized the Biden administration during a conversation with podcaster Joe Rogan, claiming the administration would “scream” and “curse” at Meta Platforms Inc. employees amid discussions about how to moderate content related to Covid-19 during the pandemic.

“It was brutal,” Zuckerberg, Meta’s chief executive officer, said during his nearly 3-hour-long episode of The Joe Rogan Experience published on Friday. Zuckerberg said the administration overstepped in its requests to take down posts about the pandemic, including satire, sowing distrust among the electorate. He previously wrote about these complaints in a letter to Congress in August.

Rogan, in response, said the Biden administration’s approach to the pandemic “red-pilled” many people.

“The US government should be defending its companies, not be at the tip of the spear attacking its companies,” Zuckerberg said. In contrast, the Facebook founder said he’s “optimistic” about President-elect Donald Trump taking the White House.

“I think he just wants America to win,” Zuckerberg said. The Meta CEO has been repositioning his company to be more Trump-friendly in recent months, and recently had dinner with the President-elect at Mar-a-Lago, his club in Florida. For more, read the full Bloomberg report.
