Dear Mark Z., .. Without Facebook, we wouldnt have won, said Theresa Hong, a member of ...

..... the digital arm of Trump’s presidential campaign.


Eat shit and die, Mark. The Trump campaign had people who were facebook employees
working full time at Trump's HQ and getting data and information from Cambridge
Analytica and wikileaks and they helped to weaponize that data/information for
the Trump campaign. Facebook was also being used by the Russians to data mine
information on Americans for Cambridge Analytica.

BTW you cashed the checks too. This isn't just about apps motherfucker.

Does the name Theresa Hong ring a bell, Mark?

FB, YouTube, Twitter, Cambridge Analytica, Russia, the GOP & Trump.

In an online BBC video, Theresa Hong, the Donald Trump campaign’s Digital Content Director, has made a number of startling confessions that she seems to think were bragging points. She’s revealed that Cambridge Analytica, the company suspected of having used voter data stolen by the Russian government to plot its online marketing strategy on Trump’s behalf, ran its operations out of the same offices where the Trump campaign itself was plotting its paid Facebook ad strategy. But the truly shocking revelation is who else she admits was in the building, which Trump’s people called “Project Alamo.”


The BBC interviewer asks Hong, “What were Facebook and Google and YouTube people actually doing here? Why were they here?” She responds by saying “They were helping us, you know. They were basically our hands-on partners as far as being able to utilize the platform as effectively as possible.” Shen then bragged “When you’re pumping in millions and millions of dollars to these social platforms, you’re going to get white glove treatment. So they would send people, you know, representatives to the Project Alamo to ensure that all our needs were being met.” Watch the shocking BBC video below

The Cambridge Analytica Scandal Is What Facebook-Powered Election Cheating Looks Like

“Without Facebook, we wouldn’t have won,” said Theresa Hong, a member of the digital arm of Trump’s presidential campaign, in an interview with the BBC last year when giving a tour of Trump’s digital campaign headquarters, dubbed Project Alamo, in San Antonio, Texas. Alamo was the name of the dataset used by Cambridge Analytica, according to Hong, who said Cambridge Analytica shared offices with the Trump campaign’s digital efforts and confirmed Facebook and Google sent liaisons to their offices to help Trump’s campaign. Hong showed the BBC how Cambridge Analytica could identify if, say, it was targeting a working mother concerned about childcare: She probably wouldn’t be interested in “a war ridden destructive ad” popping up in her Facebook app, but might respond to something more “warm and fuzzy,” lacking Trump’s voice, Hong said. “It wasn’t uncommon to have about 35 to 45 thousand iterations of these types of ads everyday.”

Some person I thought who was a little creepy (I might have been wrong)
assigned up to be a friend on my F.B. page and I asked my son if I dropped him
would he know and so I did ..... well I saw the guy a few months later and he
was all over me about dropping him as a friend. So I asked my teen son what
happened and he said that the deleted friend had to have gone on my F.B. page
and saw i dropped him. That was it for me and facebook.

BTW Mark and Facebook denied any links to Russia, the campaign, and the election
time after time until they got caught.

Me.
