UPDATE: This Trump campaign Facebook ad, claiming there are only 10 minutes left to enter a contest for dinner with Trump, has been running for at least 12 hours
It's a clear violation of Facebook's rules against false or misleading ads, which its not enforcing

I have an inquiry into @Facebook, but after initially being responsive to my questions regarding Trump's ads, I haven't heard from them for several weeks
This is odd considering @robleathern, the Facebook exec in charge of advertising, has encouraged people to flag issues

Here is @robleathern encouraging people to report the ad through Facebook to improve its "automated systems"
Why is Facebook, a $500 billion company, using automated systems to review a few hundred ads from presidential candidates?

Don't worry though @robleathern has been VERY BUSY fighting ad fraud 😉
UPDATE: I have not heard back from @Facebook officially yet but, after I lodged my inquiry, the clock ad was set to "inactive."
In fact, ALL the Trump campaign ads are now inactive. This is very unusual for a campaign that is spending $400K+ per week on Facebook ads

@facebook UPDATE: The ad is active again. There are still 10 minutes left to enter. We are approaching 24 hours of this ad running.
