Donald Trump's Voice Banned From Facebook, Lara Trump's Video Removed

Lara Trump’s Facebook video in which she interviews her father-in-law, former President Donald Trump, was removed after being informed that his voice is even banned from the platform.

Donald Trump was banned from Facebook shortly after the Jan. 6 attacks at the Capitol. Twitter also banned him from their platform.

Lara Trump's interview was posted Tuesday and was taken down later that night. She posted the email she and other Trump officials received on her Instagram account, with the caption, “...and just like that, we are one step closer to Orwell’s 1984. Wow.”

"We are reaching out to let you know that we removed content from Lara Trump's Facebook Page that featured President Trump speaking," read the message from Facebook. "In line with the block we placed on Donald Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts, further content posted in the voice of Donald Trump will be removed and result in additional limitations on the accounts."

After the video was taken down, she moved to Instagram to announce to her followers that the interview would now be on that social media platform. The officials received another email explaining how guidelines are the same since Facebook owns Instagram.

The situation renewed the debate about censorship on social media.

Eric Trump, Lara Trump's husband, also shared the email on Twitter, stating it was a “slap in the face to 75 million Americans," referring to the number of votes Donald Trump received in the 2020 presidential election.

The news comes shortly after Lara Trump announced that she accepted a new position at Fox News.
