But they were most angry about the Social Security requirement, which they said will muzzle illegal immigrants and other noncitizens while leaving their political opponents — Americans who want a crackdown on illegal immigration — free to use Facebook.


Too freaking bad

Hmm... as if Russians would not use then the illegals to weaken America...

Already in Syria they bombed civikians to create that refugee wave in Europe. No one is saying it because it fits not the narrative

So, if Russians were here illegally, it would be all right for them to try to influence the election?

Has anybody seen any of this supposed Russian interference?

A Facebook post? Anything?

All Putin has to do is fly thousands of Russian to Tijuana and have them cross illegally.

Then they can vote.

Buying an ad on Facebook now requires a government-issued ID, a U.S. address and a valid Social Security number

If some website required me to give them my SS number I would refuse anyway. Hopefully freedom minded people will stop spending money there.

——Anything?-—

There’s the question

The Russian interference is at best trivial.

It can easily continue by using an all Aerican person to do the facebook stuff.

Depends on whether you’re talking about Democrat Russians, or Republican Russians.

LOL, illegal aliens should be banned from political advocacy.
Mexicans have meddled in our elections far more than Russians.

Foreigners in Mexico that do anything remotely political are given long prison sentences.

Illegals buying adverts?

What is the size of this market segment?

And the landscapers, roofers, day labor... on craigslist?

Escort services also craigslist? Might even be a Russian or to in that group.
