"The scandals surrounding Cambridge Analytica are continuing to unfurl, with former employees now claiming the firm sent DOZENS of foreigners to influence US elections."
"'Its dirty little secret was that there was no one American involved in it, that it was a de facto foreign agent, working on an American election,' Wylie told The Washington Post. "
"Foreigners are not allowed to 'directly or indirectly participate in the decision-making process' of an American political campaign...

This law was made explicitly clear to CA President Rebekah Mercer, VP Stephen Bannon, and chief executive Alexander Nix in the 2014 Levy memo."
"...CA employees claim these laws were ignored, as dozens of foreigners worked on congressional and legislative campaigns across the US in 2014.

Docs show that 41 employees and contractors worked for the US program, which CA spent $7.5M on between 4/14 and 7/14."
"Wylie provided docs...that showed these employees did...'fundraising, planning events, and providing commss strategy, to talking pts, speeches, and debate prep'.

...these foreign nationals - mainly Canadians and Europeans - were...components to the firm's 'Project Ripon'."
MEANWHILE - AT THE SAME TIME - the RUSSIANS 🇷🇺 that Mueller just indicted, were traipsing all around the USA too 😲🔥🔥🔥

And a bit previous to those Cambridge Analytica and illegal RUs traipsing around in the US, RU Embassy employees, cashing checks (3/8/14 thru 4/7/14):

"As Russia Annexes Crimea, checks get cashed"

"Ripon was the brainchild of Nix, who wanted to use big data to psych...profile individual voters and target online ads and mailers specifically tailored to influence them.

The aim was to help GOP campaigns find these 'hidden Repubs w/ data, and then influence their vote."
"In 2014 Cambridge Analytica worked on state legislative campaigns in Colorado, a congressional campaign in Oregon, and the successful senatorial campaign for North Carolina Sen Thom Tillis."

Yup, he's been on our radar ; )
"Both Tillis and NC GOP director Dallas Woodhouse said they believed all provided services were lawful and that they were unaware of any involved foreign workers.

Cambridge Analytica also provided support to candidates in AK, NH, and NC through John Bolton's super PAC. "
Why was Tillis on our radar? #YuriKnowsHim 🤦🏽‍♀️😁👍🏽
"Two former Cambridge Analytica workers, who asked to remain anonymous, said employees at the company frequently discussed concerns that they may have been violating US laws in 2014."
"The employees also claimed the firm was providing 'potentially inaccurate immigration docs' to enter the US, as the papers did not state they were there for working purposes." 😬

Hey, I wonder if the American guy, Pinedo played a part; timeframe fits:

I don't know if the American Mueller indicted, Pinedo, is involved here, but it is interesting that he claimed to open an office in London in 2014:

Wylie: "It was the Wild West. That's certainly how they carried on in 2014."

"Wylie likewise said he had been part of a number of conference calls in which Bannon and Nix, who is British, discussed strategic campaign matters."
"In a secretly recorded video released by Britain's Channel 4, Nix claimed the firm 'did all the research, all the data, all the analytics, all the targeting, the digital campaign, the television campaign, and our data informed all the strategy'. "
"Gov't officials moved in on Cambridge Analytica's offices in London this week, taking vans full of evidence with them for further examination.

Teams searched the troubled tech company's HQs after a High Court judge granted the Information Commissioner's Office a warrant."
Purposely did not include, Parscale's, Nix's, Bolton's, etc. quotes, because THEY LIE. Here's the link if you want to read further ; ) <eot>
