UPDATED: Facebook Shadow Bans Lone Star Liberty Page After Posting Photos of Trump Rally

UPDATE: After filing three appeals, the restrictions on our page were lifted on Monday (10/21) morning. No explanation was given.

On October 17, 2019, President Trump held a rally in Dallas Texas. Lone Star Liberty admin attended the rally.

On the same day, FOX news aired an exclusive Dana Perino interview with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. In this interview, Zuckerberg claims that Silicon Valley should not be policing political speech.

The day after the Trump rally, Lone Star Liberty uploaded photos of the rally to their Facebook page. Within minutes, they received notice that they were being shadow banned due to activities from your Page that don’t comply with Facebook’s policies.

A look at the Page Insights proves the shadow ban began when the photos of the Trump Rally were uploaded.

A look at the Page Support Inbox shows no messages have been received explaining what the violation was.

When LSL admin posted that the page had been shadow banned, several others replied that they are being censored also.


Facebook is under the radar in Congress for their censorship of conservative pages. I urge you to contact your elected officials and ask them to stand up for our Freedom of Speech on social media platforms. The platforms should be held accountable for violating our constitutional rights.

Make some noise, folks! These social media platforms are trying to silence us before the 2020 elections! If we don’t stand up for our rights, we will lose them for good.

To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.
