Facebook on June 18 removed content posted by President Donald Trump’s campaign, alleging the posts violated hate speech policies.

The campaign ran advertisements encouraging people to sign a petition opposing the anarcho-communist group Antifa. The posts included an inverted red triangle that a Trump campaign official said is used by members of Antifa; some critics countered that the symbol was used by the Nazis.
