Conservative author and commentator Candace Owens challenged left-leaning fact-checking site PolitiFact, a partner with Facebook, over a “false” rating — and won.
Not only did PolitiFact remove their “false” rating and retract an article on why Owens’ video was allegedly false, but the site offered an added “correction” admitting their fault.
Owens’ video, which was posted on Nov. 12, offered commentary on the 2020 p**********l e******n, and was captioned, “Joe Biden is literally and legally not the President-elect. So why is the media pretending he is?”
The video was hit with a “false” rating, and, as noted by Owens, theoretically, every single person who shared the post was alerted by Facebook that they had shared “false” content.
“Weeks ago, [Facebook] censored a post of mine which t***hfully stated that [Joe Biden] is NOT the President-elect. So I got lawyers involved,” she said Saturday via Twitter. “Conclusion? [PolitiFact] uncensored the post & admitted that they LIED by rating my post false. The fact-checkers are lying for Democrats.”

Good for her. More people should fight against facebook censorship. Of course, everyone dropping it would be the best solution. lol

Do you really think it is a good idea to start sending politicians to jail? By reading comments from both teams I conclude that all politicians are evil. Each sides finds evil in the other side. What a glorious outcome if at the end of a term of office the losers go to jail. Sort of like that game the Mayans played where the captain of the losing team was k**led.

Politicians have been going to jail and proven in court more will. Because we have the rule of law in our country.
No "man" is above the law except our sitting President. IMHO all politicians are not evil nor all people.
We have to keep high standards for the politicians.

T***hfully I did not see any difference in what H. Clinton did in the stock market and what Martha Stewart did. Martha Stewart went to jail and H. Clinton became first lady. I had neighbors who have since passed away but they had been stock brokers for their earning life. They were also members of the Pacific Stock Exchange and we talked once or twice about that very thing. They were questioning about it also. Your also are correct about some politicians going to jail but it seems like most get a pass and are cautioned not to repeat the error. I seem to recall something a banking error in the House years ago. The members were writing checks without funds if I recall correctly. And I believe the problem was the checks were being honored by the House Bank. Would you and I have been so lucky? Some few do serve some time, sort of sacrificial lambs to pacify the e*****rate. Then often get a P**********l pardon. I thought our sitting President was a buffoon on his TV shows and I never was able to watch one for more than about five minutes even though I tried about three times. Trumps promise to clear the Swamp I thought meant to get people there who were not entrenched. I think it is egoistic at best to believe you should be in congress for life. I thought clearing the swamp meant getting many of them out of office but 535 against one is such unequal odds there is no chance to do anything except lose. I would be happy if he just goes into obscurity like Carter. He's no threat after he leaves office, why continue to persecute him.
