Links that appear in a Facebook page appear like this: https:<etc>mypolice.page.link/d... But actually goes to: https:<etc>l.facebook.com<etc>l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmypolice.page.link%2Fd...

Fair enough. The link text doesn't have to be the same as the URL it's going to.

But the "hover" link that shows at the bottom of the screen is *extremely* misleading, because it doesn't show the real link - it doesn't show where it actually is going. If I right click a link and Copy Link, then I can see the real destination by pasting it in a text file.

How do I change the hover "status bar" text to show the actual, real destination of a link?

The hover link is always the href attribute of this link. A website can always modify the link via a JavaScript onclick handler and it is not possible to predict where you end up. You can check this in the Inspector by the presence of an event label appended.
