Mark Zuckerberg announces Trump banned from Facebook and Instagram for ‘at least the next two weeks

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced via his platform

that Donald Trump will be blocked from using both Facebook and

Instagram “for at least the next two weeks until the peaceful transition

of power is complete.” The company blocked his accounts temporarily on

Wednesday following Trump’s posting on content that incited his

followers to violence, but now Zuckerberg says the ban is extended

“indefinitely,” extending at least until Biden takes over as President.Both Facebook and Instagram removed Trump’s video post yesterday,

in which the President called for rioters who laid siege to the Capitol

building in Washington to go home – but in which he also said “we love

you” to the same violent terrorists. They followed that action with a

24-hour account lock, preventing Trump from posting via his Facebook and

Instagram accounts during that period.
