Facebook removes video featuring former President Trump from Lara Trump's page
"We are reaching out to let you know that we removed content from Lara Trump's Facebook Page that featured President Trump speaking," an email noted.
Facebook has removed a video from Lara Trump's page that included her father-in-law, former President Donald Trump.
Lara Trump shared an email from Tuesday that provided notice about the removal: "We are reaching out to let you know that we removed content from Lara Trump's Facebook Page that featured President Trump speaking," the email noted. "In line with the block we placed on Donald Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts, further content posted in the voice of Donald Trump will be removed and result in additional limitations on the accounts."
Facebook indefinitely suspended Trump's access to his Facebook and Instagram accounts and referred the move to its independent Oversight Board which will choose whether or not to uphold the social media giant's decision.
Another email that Lara Trump shared appeared to provide an advance warning that the interview would be taken down if it was posted:
"I saw on Lara Trump's Instagram account that she will be hosting an interview with President Trump tonight. Just a reminder that content posted on Facebook and Instagram in the voice of President Trump is not currently allowed on our platforms (including new posts with President Trump speaking) and will be removed if posted, resulting in additional limitations on accounts that posted it." The email added: "This guidance applies to all campaign accounts and Pages, including Team Trump, other campaign messaging vehicles on our platforms, and former surrogates."
