Sean Hannity went on a tear Wednesday night against Facebook over the social media giant taking down a new interview of former President Donald Trump.
Trump was suspended from Facebook in the wake of the Capitol riots, and CNBC reported a company spokesperson pointed to that as the reason they pulled the video of Trump being interviewed by daughter-in-law Lara Trump.
Former Bush White House press secretary Ari Fleischer told Hannity this censorship is
one of the reasons we are splitting as a society.
Are conservatives supposed to start all their own conservative media and ban Biden and Obamas voice? he asked. Is that the America Facebook wants? This is going in every possible wrong direction. Its anti-democratic, anti-intellectual, anti-history.
Hannity read an email Dan Scavino apparently received before commenting, Now Dan Scavino, who works for President Trump just cause you work for President Trump, you cant post on Facebook.Why is anybody on Facebook anymore that is a conservative? he asked. Its time to leave, were not wanted there.
Fox News contributor Joe Concha said he wants to know from Facebook what did he say during that interview with Lara Trump that is so offensive that you have to hide this from the sensitivities of the people that are on Facebook.
You can watch above, via Fox News.

You want to goose step with the new orange hitler, try it out in Moscow. Even Germany will tell you, Nine, dumkauphs.

Insist that you got more votes than your opponent and no one is going to give you a forum.
