Co-conspirator? Really? Any evidence that Mueller could use that you can supply or just make up?

I would amend that to say "Indictment underscores how the American public got played by Russian agents via social media".

The American public that are on facebook are getting played by facebook every day.

Facebook is a multi-million dollar corp that's only product is advertising. Facebook uses everything about the people and sells it to the advertisers so they can target their ads towards those people.

And according to the indictment it said it had no affect on the election.

No country on earth meddles in other countries elections more that the US does. The NSA got hacked into a year ago and they lost a lot of their hacking tools they developed. What do you think those hacking tools were used for ? They are used to hack into other countries governments.

And just about every other site that exists, too. The advertising that pops up here is tailored.

Thought is multi-billion; million is small potatoes. Again, every site uses targeted advertising - anyone that is not aware of that is simply dim as a member of the routine herd of sheep

And according to the indictment it said it had no affect on the election.


You may have left out the word "outcome" - that it have not affect is different.

No country on earth meddles in other countries elections more that the US does.


I don't know if that's true and I'm not sure how you would know that either -- the US tends to be sloppy and somewhat inept at times revealing its involvement. Does not equate to being the most.

The NSA got hacked into a year ago and they lost a lot of their hacking tools they developed. What do you think those hacking tools were used for ? They are used to hack into other countries governments.


Unless that happened again, that took place more than a year ago - and some of those tools took down the Iranian nuclear program for quite a while. Every Gov't has their own set of tools and all use them - accepting that is a good place to start.

Question #1 - Which bankruptcy are we talking about, there are after all several to choose from.

Question#b - Prove he's gone bankrupt, go ahead, just look at his tax returns.

Pick one. Any one. You don't need tax returns - matter of court records that were public.

I refute your assertion. Everyone knows he's a business genius because he has a really great brain.

On 4 September 1985, Murdoch became a naturalized citizen to satisfy the legal requirement that only US citizens were permitted to own US television stations. This resulted in Murdoch, in effect, renouncing his Australian citizenship.

I'D say." That i have not done to well in picking a good example".
I could make up fake news and say " most likely an illegal immigrant has donated".
