PAID ADVERTISING != PROTECTED SPEECH
But here's confirmation Facebook strongly sides with:
-Citizens United (David Bossie, Trump Deputy Campaign Mgr)
-Club for Growth (Stephen Moore, Heritage)
-SpeechNOW (David Keating, Club for Growth ExecDir)
-McCutcheon (w/Dan Backer + RNC)
Citizens United, Club for Growth, SpeechNOW, Shaun McCutcheon (+RNC), and Mitch McConnell all crushed the born-crippled FEC so Facebook & Google could demand zero online political ad regulations from FEC-USA. Now Facebook uses "free speech" as blanket defense @ UK Parliament. 🤯
FB CTO Schroepfer: 'Facebook political ads are good bc free speech'
Diamond & Silk: 'Zuck is a speech suppressing demon'
FB: 'sure, FB killed democracy, but ads r $peech'
D&S: 'Google & Trump & Nehlen pay for our $peech but FB stole it & FEC is fake news'
do D&S get paid extra for their hate--er..political--er..commercial $peech if they shout real loud?

"Their reams of data converged on a breathtaking statistic: Wherever per-person Facebook use rose to one standard deviation above the national average, attacks on refugees increased by about 50 percent."

Harris Media can address the issue of access, helping AfD bypass German subsidiaries to get ads through. “The team at Harris Media just places quick calls to the companies’ headquarters in Silicon Valley, sources say, where [it’s] very well-networked” texasmonthly.com/the-daily-post…
Harris Media “is very well-networked [at Facebook et al] as a result of its many successful political campaigns for the Republicans,” Spiegel writes. “AfD’s orders are then simply put through to Germany from the United States.” texasmonthly.com/the-daily-post…

Verint’s firm Terrogence has been interesting not just for harvesting FB images & facial recognition, but in 2013 @sbowers00 said Vincent Tchenguiz was an investor while still SCL’s largest shareholder @iblametom forbes.com/sites/thomasbr…
Trump, Tchenguiz, Orban, Weinstein, Goodluck Jonathan, SCL.. how many of them have been Black Cube clients? Sounds like @sbowers00 @AlbertoNardelli @b_novak @panyiszabolcs @liliebayer @RonanFarrow @RobertMackey should compare modus operandi notes theintercept.com/2018/04/07/for…
boy, look at the time! have fun with that, gotta run!

#Trump is going to speak in the Rose Garden any minute now. Is he going to lie a bunch about reopening the government? Is he just going to yell "no collusion! witch hunt!" over and over again? Both? Stay tuned!
Oh hell, #Trump is going to take questions too. This is going to be a sh*tshow.
#Trump is running about a half hour late. I wonder if he's spent this whole time on the phone with Ann Coulter, begging for permission to cave?

#Trump said his Russian business efforts, including during the campaign were "Very legal" and "VERY COOL."

HAHAHAH....yep, I sure do agree with that. Very cool, indeed.

Of course, most of the media have no clue, though some of them do, b/c some have reported the truth.
Well, sommanab*tch! The link I saved from one of the media outlets that knew ...now seems to be gone. Of course I couldn't archive it because it was WaPo. They wouldn't let me archive it.
Well, here's another one, by Buzzfeed, no less. They KNEW that Trump worked WITH the FBI, yet they participated in the conspiracy against him to frame him as the guilty one.

Here's the #Facebook "scandal" in a nutshell:
(1/10) In 2004 Mark #Zuckerberg creates essentially the biggest single advertising platform of all time.
(2/10) Facebook's genius is that instead of advertising that's coupled with original content (TV, radio, print, other websites) the "original content" of FB is the audience itself, as they "connect" with each other.
(3/10) Like any & every business, ever, at some point FB needs to find a way to get people to voluntarily give them lots of money. Who though? Well, companies/entities that want to influence groups of people to do things (duh).

50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica. Psych prof/developer Aleksandr Kogan accessed 270k FB users' data w his app, then collected their friends' data…& sold it all to Trump's data firm which used it to target ads in 2016 election theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
FB 2018: "We learned a psychology professor at the University of Cambridge named Dr. Aleksandr Kogan lied to us…by passing data from an app…using Facebook Login to SCL/Cambridge Analytica, a firm that does political, government… military work around the globe." FB knew in 2015
"purpose of Kogan’s work was to develop an algorithm for the 'national profiling capacity of American citizens' as part of SCL’s work on U.S. elections, according to an internal document signed by an SCL employee describing the research"– 3/2017 report theintercept.com/2017/03/30/fac…

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
