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.

Sounds like the Russians were actually supporting Hillary.

Well that’s kind of telling, isn’t it?

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

I suspect that is a great strength for him.

He couldn’t endure the attacks against him, nor the state of affairs in our country Obama left in his lap if he didn’t have that. The more I read about Trump and those who do know him the more I can see God’s wisdom in taking him all the way to the Presidency. He truly is a remarkable man......not only very intelligent..but as his wife said...with a big heart. I have learned she is absolutely right..and Trump doesn’t brag about what he does for others.

BTW...the story of Trump bringing Clintons assorted women to the debate with Hillary is very interesting in why he did that. And as interesting there was almost a fist fight just beforehand among the Trump/Gope of those who didn't want him to do that and those who did.

We don't get the stories until after the fact but it's uniquely interesting about this man Donald Trump.

Trump is WAY strong. Only having to sleep for 4-6 hr definitely helps.

Yes he is...but we need to always be praying for Him and his team.....their workload, and what they face is unimaginable. There is so much really serious stuff happening we don’t see or know.

Obama spent 8yrs. trying to change this country into something it’s not...refused to address head on anything that would hurt his legacy as the first BLACK US President. ..even if it ment he’d look like a coward....which he is. And His wife never understood at all what a First Lady is....she was and remained way over her head.

So Trump’s had dumped into his lap 8yrs. of a do nothing President before him....plus what’s on his plate currently.

Yes, Tovaritch, Facebook in Baltimore is first place FSB agents place clever ad. Bwahaha!

I think the whole Russian interference red herring should be mocked using good 'ol Boris' iconic image at every opportunity. The Left handles mockery about as well as a vampire handles the noonday sun.

......”THAT was a high point of the campaign”.....

Yes. The person I listened to said it really shook both Hillary and Bill a great deal and was intended to do just that after the stunt they pulled on Trump. It was a gigantic smack down harder than they ever thought would come. You go after Trump the way they lied to him and set him up in the previous debate...he warned he'd come back harder if people played him wrong and he did just that! Interesting too is the women ‘were prepared to confront’ verbally Slick Willy.....”The LOOK” of Bills face glancing over at them is very real ‘fear’. Neither Clintons knew how far that would go , if more were to happen or not.
