Facebook assisting Mueller probe into Trump 2016 campaign
Wash Times ^ | 4/10/2018 | Stephen Dinan

Facebook is working with special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Trump campaign interactions with Russian operatives during the 2016 election, company founder Mark Zuckerberg told Congress on Tuesday.

Mr. Zuckerberg first said his company had gotten a subpoena from Mr. Mueller, then paused and said he wasn’t sure if there was a subpoena but his company is sharing information the investigation.

He declined to go into more details.

“Our work with the special counsel is confidential,” he said, testifying to the Senate Judiciary and Commerce committees.

Russia, Russia, Russia. And no mention of the Obama campaign's similar tactics in 2012.

Yes, Obama created the idea of using Cambridge Analytica info to great success.

When Trump was faced with having the chance to do the same thing, turns out he didn't need to so he didn't use it. But somehow they want to hang it all on him.

Saul Alinsky - blame your enemy for what you are already doing that way when the media gets a hold of it your enemy will get the media hit.

So they spank Zuckerberg on the wrist and Zuckerberg promises to be a good boy and spill every he knows about the Trump campaign. So easy.

All Trump supporters should cancel their FB page. I’ll be doing it tonight.

I bet they are. Just like the Deep State front CrowdStrike helped with the DNC email situation.

I won’t believe a word of what Zuckerberg and co. report on Trump.

I nuked mine in January. Miss it very little. I now use MeWe.com instead and it’s way less intrusive. Do it. You will be glad you did. I am watching Schmuckerberg do the shuck and jive before Congress now and just all that much more glad I got out.

Obama was praised for manipulating Farcebook data. This is is insufferable conduct by the liberal ruling class elite.
I am sick and tired of their “vision” of the America my father fought for in the South Pacific, his twin brother flew in a B17 in Europe for, and my best friend’s dad died for.

The purpose is not to hide anything. The government already knows everything. The purpose is to hurt FB. But, I’ve always believed it’s government owned and operated.

Maybe the FBI can look into any voting irregularities that might have happened at the polls and clean up the voter rolls. Just in case any Trump supporters voted twice.

Probably not new.

I'd guess this has to do with the February indictment of Russians using Facebook to gin up the #NotMyPresident movement -- among other things.

From what I understand if you are the only administrator for the Lions Club page then it will delete when you delete your account.

Perhaps you could add another administrator even if it's you under a new FB account set up with a different email address.

62% of divorce filings now specifically mention Facebook. It is a destroyer of lives.

I’m afraid an incident there like what happened at YouTube last week is all but inevitable. Somebody is gonna snap.
