Like most socialist propaganda, the mix of lies and half-truths mirror the objectives.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) on Saturday called on Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee following reports that a data firm took Facebook users' private information for President Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
"Facebook breach: This is a major breach that must be investigated. It’s clear these platforms can’t police themselves. I've called for more transparency & accountability for online political ads. They say 'trust us.' Mark Zuckerberg needs to testify before Senate Judiciary," Klobuchar, a member of the committee, wrote on Twitter.
Her comment came in response to the news that Cambridge Analytica, the data firm used by the Trump campaign, obtained the private information of more than 50 million people without their permission for campaign uses.
It was also reported that senior members of Cambridge Analytica met with Russian business executives ahead of the 2016 campaign.
Facebook suspended the group on Friday for not fully deleting all of the data it had obtained.
Klobuchar also said that Cambridge Analytica taking data on Facebook users is further justification for regulating technology companies via her Honest Ads Act, introduced in late 2017. The bill would hold internet platforms like Facebook to similar political ad disclosure standards as radio, TV and print outlets.
Honest political ads! ::laughonfloor:: From shizzle like Clinton and the rest of these progs?! ::hysterical::
As ALWAYS, it is about control. Facebook isn't radical leftist enough or rabid enough about censoring free speech of non-progs...no, they need to be regulated by the state to ensure full compliance and control of the statists. You have your orders Zucker, bend over and obey your masters!
Mock tears for "privacy" rights after the Trump campaign were brazenly denied theirs and while Hillary's open private server packed with government secrets was available to every friend and foe to harvest! All the while honest LIES were spewing out of Democrat pol's and campaigns and dutifully disseminated by the Democrat-Media Complex...the very essence of progressive democrat "honesty"! And invoking "Russia" into the meme in another pathetic attempt to give life to legs long ago palsied by a deafening lack of evidence!
There is only one response to this latest attempt to usurp power -
Time to crush the coup plotters into oblivion!

Facebook for Trump? What a joke. Facebook and its main rival Twitter are so anti-Trump it makes your teeth hurt.

Facebook likes money more than it hates Trump.
A barely post-adolescent guy named Christopher Wylie has a way with data and social media. He got hooked up w/ Steve Bannon who subsequently hired him in 2016. Wylie put up a few of those "Find Out Stuff About Yourself" surveys on Facebook. Bannon paid for them. The collected data on some 230 million people(!) and used that data to help the Trump campaign.
If something embarasses the left they need to punish by launching an harassment committee investigation.
