Great find!! From your linked article....
Trump campaign phased out use of Cambridge Analytica data before election
Cambridge Analytica, a data vendor for the Trump campaign, was phased out during the general election, CBS News reports. The firm is now at the center of reports that it exploited Facebook data and harvested millions of U.S. voter profiles without user authorization during the 2016 presidential campaign.
The Trump campaign never used the psychographic data at the heart of a whistleblower who once worked to help acquire the data’s reporting — principally because it was relatively new and of suspect quality and value. The profiling approach utilized by Cambridge Analytica allowed it to predict the voting likelihoods of individual people based on personality, the firm claimed.
Facebook announced on Friday that the firm — which is partly owned by billionaire donor Robert Mercer and which was paid $5.9 million by Mr. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign — has been suspended for violating the social media company’s standards and practices.
In late September 2016, Cambridge and other data vendors were submitting bids to the Trump campaign. Then-candidate Trump’s campaign used Cambridge Analytica during the primaries and in the summer because it was never certain the Republican National Committee would be a willing, cooperative partner. Cambridge Analytica instead was a hedge against the RNC, in case it wouldn’t share its data.
The crucial decision was made in late September or early October when Mr. Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and Brad Parscale, Mr. Trump’s digital guru on the 2016 campaign, decided to utilize just the RNC data for the general election and used nothing from that point from Cambridge Analytica or any other data vendor. The Trump campaign had tested the RNC data, and it proved to be vastly more accurate than Cambridge Analytica’s, and when it was clear the RNC would be a willing partner, Mr. Trump’s campaign was able to rely solely on the RNC.
Cambridge Analytica data was used for some targeted digital advertising and a large TV buy, but the main source of “get out the vote” and matching digital outreach data came from the RNC.....

This needs to be a separate thread.
I think it is the calm before the storm.
Its been my theory recently that "our guys" are working with some members of the press to a much greater degree than they ever have before. Fighting fire with fire, so to speak. A war within the war waged in the media. Sppoks against spooks. Spy v Spy. That kinda deal. We are hearing things in the media we would never have heard before. That's what I think.
It opened but I am not getting sound, what program should I use to see and hear it?
HAHAHAHA ok Thank you bagster, I will never let you down!
I use VLC. Thanks for being a guinea pig. I downloaded it myself and it played for me. I’m not techie enough to say much more.
Case closed.
Next
Yea it does, Jane. We need to shut that S word down right quick. Freepers will panic. There are some nervous negative nellies out there.
Yep.
Agree.
I don’t have that, gonna have to find something that will play it. May take me a bit to see what I have or go grab something.
If so . . . Libs, Dems et all will be destroyed. In fact even I am starting to think in terms of "Dead Man Walking." for the DNC.
OTH . . . kinda disappointed. Was hoping there was a video of Republican operatives doing the bad deed. Was looking forward to a "Video War."
Libs show Repubs doing awful things like setting up honeytraps, Repubs or whoever showing Dems of murder, extortion, trafficking. That would have been fun.
I dunno, I hope they will try to use it then get shot down but I can’t tell.
I think I am going in a few too many directions at the moment.
Jane I agree . . . tell me you got or do you want me too. Your call.
Bfl
I grabbed VLC and am still not hearing sound, maybe there is something wrong with me!! It is really possible. Will try again with something else in a while.
I got it with Waterfox (64-bit version of Firefox).
Downloaded and double clicked. Played perfectly using “Movies & TV” app on Windows 10.
Good job!
