PoliticsTrump wanted to silence No Kings; then Meta suspended its Instagram account

The No Kings Coalition says Meta declined to promise safeguards against automated systems suspending its Instagram account during an election-related surge. Meta had apologized after the account was temporarily disabled, leaving administrators locked out for four hours. No Kings rejected Meta’s offer of a technical briefing, sought a meeting with senior leaders and asked the company to disclose any communications with the Trump administration about the account or early-voting event.
