Russians linked to political Black Lives Matter ad on Facebook targeting Baltimore
Baltimore Sun ^ | 9/27/17 | John Fritze

Posted on 09/27/2017 6:50:00 PM PDT by LittleSpotBlog

At least one of the Facebook advertisements bought by the Russians during last year’s presidential campaign was targeted at voters in Baltimore and made reference to the Black Lives Matter movement, a source familiar with the ad said Wednesday.

The ad — also aimed at users in Ferguson, Mo. — followed the 2015 rioting sparked by the death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray. The ad appeared on the social media network sometime in late 2015 or early 2016.

Based on that we should immediately replace Trump and Pence with Hillary and Maxine Waters.

The Russian backed CPUSA supported H->! in 2016. She has never renounced their support.

I'm inclined to think it's the democrates making it LOOK LIKE Russia.....they always hide behind whatever 'curtain' they choose to hide behind so their hands aren't seen.....Russia's they're favorite now ....and their theme to keep their base engaged that they're busy protecting them fro the Monster Russia....and of course Trump.

They’ll continue to blame Russia because of the three Congressional investigations going on trying to destroy Trump...MMuller and his co-horts are deterined to do just that....so they’re linking everything they can with Russia...then they’ll go after Trup for the nail in the coffin.

It’s not going to be pretty but I will add this from a man who worked close to Trump and knows hi well......

...”Trump’s a populist, economic nationalist....with an intuitive sense of people and moments..... He has an applied intelligence in situations of intense pressure...he doesn’t choke!...........People don’t understand the courage of Donald Trump nor the will of this man.

......Trump ran for His Duty to His country...why would he give up all that he has to be destroyed as those people are trying to do on a daily?.......never forget this!.......He knew when he came down that escalator what this would mean...

SOOOOOO....IMO.....When you side with a man you side with him..the good and the bad. There’s no neutral place to stand if your for Trump.....because we are at war for our country. The MSM won’t tell you that.

Federal officials are investigating whether those ads were part of a broader effort to influence the 2016 election.

Kinda like this election?

‘Zucksters’ going to run for office....he’s going nowhere but toward that end now.....which means taking on Trump for 2020...Demorats showing their hand if you watch for it.

The old guard (Hillary/Obaa/Warren/Pelosi are just keeping the seat war for him and a few ‘Younger candidates’ we’re going to see....especially those who ‘control’ social media...because the left already has the MSM.

"He has an applied intelligence in situations of intense pressure...he doesn’t choke!"

I suspect that is a great strength for him.

” ...targeting Baltimore ...”?

Self destructing Baltimore has been targeting itself. Who needs the Russians for this?
