Kennedy Jr., over what the platforms said were repeated violations of their Covid-19 policies.Children’s Health Defense reported on the actions of the platforms in a posting on its website Thursday.

It said that it had received a notice from Facebook that the account had been unpublished and a notice from Instagram that it had been suspended.In a statement, Kennedy said, “Facebook is acting here as a surrogate for the federal government’s crusade to silence all criticism of draconian government policies.

Our constitutional framers recognized this peril of government censorship.”A Meta spokesperson confirmed that action to remove the accounts.
