Just In: Markle Trump Ally Slams Prince Harry And Meghan Markle’s Meta Political Attack….See More

on

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s recent criticism of Meta’s decision to scrap its fact-checking program has drawn attention and will likely stir tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump.

The couple’s Archewell Foundation issued a statement accusing the social media giant of prioritizing profit over public safety, a move that PR experts warn could provoke a strong response from Trump.

The Controversy
Meta’s decision to abandon fact-checkers announced just weeks before Trump’s anticipated return to the White House, has sparked widespread debate. In their statement, Harry and Meghan’s foundation highlighted concerns over the potential consequences of this policy shift.

They stated, “Meta has shown their words and commitments have very little meaning or integrity. As they announce these changes undoubtedly responding to political winds, they once again abandon public safety in favor of profit, chaos, and control.”

The foundation also urged Meta to reconsider its policies, calling for the reinstatement of protections to safeguard users and ensure integrity in online spaces.

Their statement praised leaders who resist “bullying” and emphasized the need for platforms to prioritize public safety over political pressures or corporate interests.

Expert Opinions
Nick Ede, a U.K.-based PR expert, told Newsweek that the statement could have significant repercussions. “Trump will see this as a battle he wants to win and potentially will target them in whatever way he does it,” Ede noted.

He added that the move could reignite Trump’s animosity toward the couple, particularly in light of Harry’s past admissions about drug use in his memoir, Spare.

Nile Gardiner, a prominent figure in the pro-Trump Heritage Foundation, criticized Harry and Meghan’s intervention, calling it “hugely inappropriate.”

Gardiner argued that their use of royal titles in addressing such a politically charged issue undermines royal neutrality and could intensify public scrutiny of Harry’s U.S. immigration status.

Gardiner has been leading a campaign to have Harry’s immigration records released, asserting that transparency is essential.

He stated, “If he was dishonest on his application, he should be deported. It’s a straightforward matter of transparency, accountability, and the equal application of the rule of law.”

The Trump Connection
Donald Trump’s history with Harry and Meghan is well-documented. Meghan labeled him “misogynistic” in 2016, and Harry criticized Trump’s stance on climate change during a prank call in 2020.

Their veiled criticisms during the 2020 election campaign also drew sharp rebukes from Trump, who remarked, “I’m not a fan of hers.”

Trump’s allies, including Gardiner, have suggested that the couple’s latest actions could further strain relations. Gardiner believes that under Trump’s new administration, there may be renewed efforts to scrutinize Harry’s immigration status and potentially release his records to the public.

Broader Implications
Meta’s policy change has drawn criticism beyond the Sussexes. Christopher Bouzy, founder of Spoutible, expressed support for Harry and Meghan’s stance.

Bouzy told Newsweek, “Their courageous stance against misinformation and their dedication to fostering genuine dialogue resonate deeply with our mission at Spoutible.

Meta’s recent decision to dismantle their third-party fact-checking program undermines the very foundations of informed discourse and free expression.”

The Archewell Foundation Parents’ Network, launched in 2024, reflects Harry and Meghan’s long-standing commitment to addressing the impact of social media on families.

Their statement underscored concerns about Meta’s abandonment of diversity and equity initiatives, which they argue disproportionately affect marginalized communities.
