When the smoking gun of the [[Biden-Burisma]] scandal broke in ''[[The New York Post]]'', Facebook dispatched a life-long [[Democratic Party]] operative who now works for Facebook — Andy Stone, previously a communications operative for [[far-left]] Democratic Sen. [[Barbara Boxer]] and the [[Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee]] (DCCC), among other D.C. Democratic jobs — to announce that Facebook was “reducing [the article’s] distribution on our platform”: in other words, tinkering with its own [[algorithm]]s to suppress the ability of users to discuss or share the ''New York Post'' article.

In August 2020 it was reported that Facebook was planning for the possibility that [[President]] Trump or his campaign could try to challenge mail in ballot election results. ''[[The New York Times]]'' reported that staffers were already putting together contingency plans in the event Trump tries to use Facebook to dispute the vote by declaring the [[U.S. Postal Service]] lost mail-in ballots or that other groups interfered with the vote. Facebook officials, including [[CEO]] Mark Zuckerberg, were holding daily meetings to discuss how to minimize the platform from being used to cast doubts on the results.
