In this monologue from The Dennis Prager Show, the host cites Mark Zuckerberg’s 2021 congressional testimony in which Zuckerberg claimed the Biden administration pressured Facebook to censor COVID‑19 content, including humor and satire. Prager highlights Zuckerberg’s admission that Facebook demoted the Hunter Biden laptop story after an FBI warning about potential Russian disinformation, and argues that the FBI acted as a tool of the Democratic Party rather than the nation. The commentary expands to a broader indictment of the political left, labeling the FBI, CIA, public schools, Boy Scouts, colleges, the American Medical Association, and children’s hospitals as institutions corrupted by leftist ideology. Prager denounces COVID‑19 public‑health measures—mask mandates, social distancing, lockdowns, and vaccines—as deliberate lies, asserting that many knew the truth at the time. He also condemns gender‑affirming medical care for transgender youth, describing a surgical case as “grotesque.” The host blames mainstream media outlets (NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, NPR, New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times) for keeping the public in an informational bubble and urges listeners to join Pragertopia for alternative perspectives.

Mark Zuckerberg admitted yesterday that he was repeatedly pressured—his words—his team was in 2021 to censor content related to COVID-19. Zuckerberg responded to questions from the House Judiciary Committee explaining the moderation of online content on social media platforms, including addressing reports that the Biden administration tried to censor multiple social media companies. Zuckerberg explained that the Biden administration pressured his team for months in 2021 to censor, quote, certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our team when we didn't agree. I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that they were— we were not more outspoken about it, Zuckerberg continued. I also think that we made some choices that, with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn't make today. Hmm. The Facebook founder also admitted that Facebook demoted the Hunter Biden laptop story because it was warned by the FBI about a potential Russian disinformation operation regarding Burisma and the Biden family leading into the 2020 election. Zuckerberg said it's been since made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we should not have demoted the story. In other words, the FBI worked on on behalf of the Democratic Party, not on behalf of America. That is what it— do you understand the gravity of that charge? I mean, it's not a charge, it's a fact. The FBI is a tool of the left. Not every FBI agent, but the FBI. Because the left corrupts and destroys everything it touches. The FBI and CIA are two of the examples. Your kid's public school is probably an example. The Boy Scouts are an example. Colleges are an example. American Medical Association is an example. Children's hospitals that surgically perform grotesque surgeries on boys who say they're girls. I saw, I watched, I was riveted. It was too painful, that's why. I saw a boy who had said he was a girl And they, they expeditiously, surgically removed his penis. Now, now he has no feeling there except pain. He's, generally speaking, he's neither a male nor a female. That people would do this Well, anyway, the left destroys everything it touches. This is a scandal the likes of which is— there's nothing comparable in the Trump administration, nothing, to the FBI pressuring people on behalf of a candidate. Has it happened in the past? I don't know. It's a rhetorical— it's not a rhetorical question. It's a question the answer to which I do not know. Has the FBI done that in the past? So he was pressured to not allow anything, any dissent from the lies told by Fauci and the CDC and the NIH and the Biden administration about COVID The whole— do you know that the entire regimen turns out to be a lie? And do you know that some of us knew it at the time? You're listening to one of them. The masks were a lie. The distance between people was a lie. The lockdown, the need to lock down schools was a lie. The need to lock down period was a lie. And that the vaccine was a vaccine was a lie. That you should give it to children is beyond a lie. It borders on evil. And yet half of the country doesn't know a thing I just told you. Not a word of it. Because they're, they're in the bubble of NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, NPR, New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times. Yep, that's it. They don't, they don't hear what you hear. They don't read what you read. They don't study what you study. They don't watch what you watch. But they, but they, but they, they continue to vote for the party that is ruining the country.
