“I thought President Biden’s inaugural address was very good,” Zuckerberg announced in the Jan. 21 meeting.
“In his first day, President Biden already issued a number of Executive Orders on areas that we as a company care quite deeply about and have for some time,” he continued. “Areas like immigration, preserving DACA, ending restrictions on travel from Muslim-majority countries, as well as other Executive Orders on climate and advancing racial justice and equity. I think these were all important and positive steps.”

“His decision to use his platform to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters in the Capitol I think has rightly bothered and disturbed people in the U.S. and around the world,” he maintained.
Trump delivered a speech on Jan. 6 as demonstrators turned violent in the U.S. Capitol approximately two miles away. Trump told followers to go to the building but urged them to stay peaceful. After demonstrators stormed the Capital, he published videos asking them to leave and denounced the violence.
NO SO MAGICAL: THE COPPERFIELD-EPSTEIN CONNECTION THAT'S RAISING EYEBROWS EVERYWHERE
Facebook didn’t respond to a request for comment.
