Robert Mueller's Team Reportedly Interviewed Facebook Staff As Part of Russia Probe (thehill.com)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Hill: Special counsel Robert Mueller's team has interviewed at least one Facebook employee tasked with helping the Trump campaign's digital operations during the 2016 campaign, Wired reported on Friday. The report, which cited a source familiar with the matter, does not say when the employee was questioned nor does it detail the focus of the interview. Mueller's team has been investigating for months any collusion between Trump campaign associates and Russia. During the election, Facebook deployed employees to embed with the Trump campaign to assist its digital operations. The company also worked with Hillary Clinton's campaign team but did not have employees embedded with them. The company has also been scrutinized by Congress for selling more than 3,000 ads to the Internet Research Agency, a Russian "troll farm" alleged to have carried out misinformation operations online during the campaign.
He's the least popular US President in recorded history.

In the history of presidential job approval polls, only FDR, Eisenhower, and JFK were decisively *more* popular than Trump throughout their presidency.
Good god you're a fucking moron. ... "Deep State"... blah blah "Clinton Crime Family" blah blah.. Let me guess you watch Alex Jones and think he's a god, right? Or perhaps your a Rush Limbaugh fan?
Hillary has been investigated for decades by republicans and the end result is not one indictment. So, either the republicans investigating her were complete morons like yourself or they were complicit in hiding her supposed crimes.
Which is it you fucking dimwit?
Please don't breed we don't need your stupidity polluting the gene pool any longer.
Eh? That's not quite right. She, among others, approved the Uranium One deal, there's plenty of strange money flowing into the Clinton Foundation, one of their own people complained about such money going to things like Chelsea's wedding, and from what little they've revealed of supposedly Russian operations, they were supporting things like Black Lives Matter.
It seems just a bit odd to categorize that as "pro-Trump" but then again we have so many articles were "sources" say any damn thing they want that I don't really believe anyone any more, and yes, that's including Trump.
The whole lot of you are full of BS.
I do not watch or listen to those. Purely the facts from the investigation. If it walks and talks like a duck, it must be a duck. Many FBI agents are coordinating his take down. If that doesnt upset you, then wait to the tides turn and its a republican heavy FBI that takes down the next democrat president.
LOL, right.
- James Comey, a Republican, was head of the FBI until Donald Trump fired him.
- Christopher A. Wray, a Republican, was confirmed as Comey's replacement in August 2017.
- Rod Rosenstein, Deputy Attorney General, a Republican, appointed Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
- Robert Mueller, a Republican, is conducting the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
- Donald Trump, POTUS, a Republican, supposedly wanted to fire Mueller last June (shortly after firing Comey) but was talked out of it.
Whatever it is that's motivating the FBI and the Department of Justice to investigate the Russian connection to the 2016 election, it isn't partisan politics.
If it weren't for deadlines, nothing would be late.
