THREAD: Yesterday's upgraded @USTreasury Dept sanctions against Russian agent Konstantin Kilimnik confirm what we knew all along, that #CambridgeAnalytica engaged with Russian intel services (indirectly or directly) for the benefit of the Trump Campaign in 2016. I'll say it
[1/3]
FOIA challenges from @JasonLeopold helped to reveal that #CambridgeAnalytica's psychological polling was lumped together for the Trump campaign and then Paul Manafort instructed Rick Gates to pass that information along to Russian operative Konstantin Kilimnik [2/3]
This sentence from SSCI report gets overlooked. The "degree of intersection" with Russia and CA was more than just Kilimnik but he was the conduit for it all.

Sam Patten claimed that Kilimnik had no relationship with CA...said the guy who was deleting files the FBI wanted [3/3]
This.

So I decided to download my Facebook data after learning I was a part of the 533m breach.

Clicked on a folder called “your_off_facebook_activity” and was unsurprised to learn that Facebook is following me all over the internet.
Facebook knows when I ordered pizza
That I applied to Fordham University

Testimony from Elizabeth Denham of the @ICOnews to the @CommonsDCMS as it relates to the investigation of Cambridge Analytica | A THREAD ⬇️

First up, Ms. Denham says the Senate Intelligence Committee did not contact the ICO despite the SSCI in the their report saying they did.
Denham fails to specify what changed between April 2019 and October 2020 for there not to be a final report issued. Over 700 TB of information analyzed and the @ICOnews chose not to issue a final report on an almost 2 year investigation. @carolecadwalla @jason_kint @EmmaLBriant
Denham says that she's happy to provide a "private briefing" into the AIQ/Cambridge Analytica agreement after @OwnYourDataNow published documents with the letterhead "Cambridge Analytica in partnership with AIQ"

Yesterday, the Central Bureau of Investigation in India registered a case against #CambridgeAnalytica and GSR for misusing Facebook data. The Bureau alleges only 335 people installed the app yet 562k people had their data harvested.

@EmmaLBriant research: propagandamachine.tech
The poster of The Indian National Congress party in Alexander Nix's office as seen in @thegreathackdoc has been the source of much debate in India (according to reports) over which parties Cambridge Analytica worked for.

According to testimony/evidence provided by @chrisinsilico to the DCMS, Cambridge Analytica worked for Congress. SCL did work regionally in India.

@podehaye said: Dan Muresan was working for Congress but he was really paid for by an Indian billionaire who wanted Congress to lose

💥A DC judge just ordered Steve Bannon to testify under oath to the @FTC about his involvement with #CambridgeAnalytica 💥

Judge said that the hearing can happen before May 2021, before Bannon's NY criminal case.

Bannon had previously been fighting the FTC saying that he could hurt his NY criminal case by testifying to them.

Excellent work by @JasonLeopold!

Unfortunately the secrets behind these redactions from August remain a mystery. #CambridgeAnalytica whistleblower Brittany Kaiser told #TheGreatHack that she was cooperating with Mueller team. The Russia question remains..
buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…
For context @JasonLeopold obtained Kaiser's 302 in August of 2020. It's entirely redacted. ALL pages in the Mueller report related to #CambridgeAnalytica and any potential Russian connection is redacted. ICO in the UK referred Russia connection to the NCA

buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…
We know from #SSCIVol5 that #CambridgeAnalytica potentially did work with/for Lukoil. Redactions remain over that.
