LinkedIn just handed conservatives another textbook example of Big Tech bias in action. The professional networking giant deleted a post from the State Freedom Caucus Network praising Department of Homeland Security and ICE operations targeting criminals and predators. Their reasoning? The content supposedly violated hate speech policies. The only problem? The post was literally about protecting children from dangerous criminals.
Here’s where it gets interesting. After the conservative group blasted LinkedIn on X and threatened to delete their account entirely, the platform suddenly had a change of heart. LinkedIn’s Trust and Safety team quickly backpedaled, claiming the removal was an “error” and restoring the post. State Freedom Caucus Network President Andrew Roth isn’t buying the innocent mistake narrative, telling Fox News Digital that this represents everything wrong with woke corporate censorship.
🚨🚨Woke @LinkedIn removed our post below calling out the great work of DHS & ICE in taking pedos off the streets.
Reason? “Hateful speech.”
Apparently protecting children is “hate,” but letting actual predators roam free is fine.@elonmusk doesn’t censor us, but @LinkedIn… https://t.co/t5FV0d0iby pic.twitter.com/OpIUbF7fuw

The deleted post highlighted how the Biden administration allowed over 10 million illegal immigrants into the country, including violent criminals and predators, while praising Trump’s mission to secure America’s borders. Nothing in that message remotely resembled hate speech—unless you consider supporting law enforcement and border security inherently offensive. That’s apparently where LinkedIn’s content moderators land on the political spectrum.
