Donald Trump reportedly called Mark Zuckerberg and asked him to make changes to the panel that's now

responsible for reviewing Trump's ban from the platform

Donald Trump reportedly called Mark Zuckerberg while he was president to oppose Facebook's Oversight Board.

Shortly after Facebook announced the members of its Oversight Board, an independent panel that would have the power to overrule the social media giant in the interest of human rights, Trump called Zuckerberg to protest the addition of Pamela Karlan, a Stanford Law professor who testified at his 2019 impeachment, according to a report for The New Yorker by Kate Klonick.

Facebook allowed Klonick to spend eighteen months following the Oversight Board's creation. A person familiar with the process said Zuckerberg listened to the then-president's complaints, but did not change the composition of the board, according to Klonick's report.

"He used Pam as an example of how the board was this deeply offensive thing to him," a source told her.
