CNN reports that Facebook is removing announcements promoting upcoming freedom protests because they violate stay-at-home orders.
A Facebook spokesperson says they stepped in and blocked the promotions at the request of government leaders in California, Nebraska and New Jersey.
This is a development story. More to come.
