    Imo FB is the worst actor in this entire matter. And that's saying a lot given how badly some of the other parties have behaved. FB was even threatening the Observer with legal action as they were getting their story ready.
    Yeah, whatever other revelations come out of this, we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that Facebook is turrible.

    This has been a big weekend for news on the data firm that claimed to help get Donald Trump elected — Cambridge Analytica and the U.K. parent company SCL Group Limited. And now there’s one more twist, connecting SCL and Cambridge Analytica to someone else grabbing recent headlines, Erik Prince.

    Worth remembering that people from the Trump campaign were effectively giving CA the "coffee boy" treatment months ago.

    Can someone get me up to speed on what the latest accusation is?

    Are we still on treason or collusion or vote rigging or misuse of campaign funds or something else

    This is a serious question... what is Trump going down for?

    An interesting article about Nix.

    https://www.byline.com/column/67/article/2069

    Look carefully at the picture of the books on his bookshelf and you will notice a tome titled, Stealing Elections. I kid you not.

    I just love the idea of continually throwing nonsense in the media machine to keep this as a story so people are thinking about it during the mid terms. Don't kid yourselves...that's the only reason this is being brought up. This story is going no where.

    It is a set of small details that might have escaped your attention. But:

    1) Before the recent news, Cambridge Analytica had already received a subpoena for records from Mueller

    2) Brad Parscale (I can explain to you who he is if the name is not familiar) hired Cambridge Analytica to help with the Trump campaign.

    It may be that there are no dots to be connected. Or maybe there are. I'm sure we will find out in due course.

    In a broadly reported press release from Cambridge Analytica, Nix is quoted as saying "We are thrilled that our revolutionary approach to data-driven communication has played such an integral part in President-elect Trump's extraordinary win,” but, when later reports started to critique the company's technique, Nix was quoted in March 2017 by the New York Times saying: “We bake a cake, it’s got 10 ingredients in it. Psycho-graphics is one of them.”

    From the article I linked a few posts up.
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    The maybe it's no dots but we are going to find out has been uttered by you maybe 100 times. No dots have been found since.
