Very excited to see the Mueller indictment today. We shared Russian ads with Congress, Mueller and the American people to help the public understand how the Russians abused our system. Still, there are keys facts about the Russian actions that are still not well understood.

The majority of the Russian ad spend happened AFTER the election. We shared that fact, but very few outlets have covered it because it doesn’t align with the main media narrative of Tump and the election.https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2017/10/hard-questions-russian-ads-delivered-to-congress/ …

The main goal of the Russian propaganda and misinformation effort is to divide America by using our institutions, like free speech and social media, against us. It has stoked fear and hatred amongst Americans. It is working incredibly well. We are quite divided as a nation.

The single best demonstration of Russia's true motives is the Houston anti-islamic protest. Americans were literally puppeted into the streets by trolls who organized both the sides of protest.https://www.sacurrent.com/the-daily/archives/2017/11/01/russian-trolls-organized-both-sides-of-an-islam-protest-in-texas …

The Russian campaign is ongoing. Just last week saw news that Russian spies attempted to sell a fake video of Trump with a hooker to the NSA. US officials cut off the deal because they were wary of being entangled in a Russian plot to create discord.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/09/us/politics/us-cyberweapons-russia-trump.html …

There are easy ways to fight this. Disinformation is ineffective against a well educated citizenry. Finland, Sweden and Holland have all taught digital literacy and critical thinking about misinformation to great effect.http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/03/01/why-is-finland-able-to-fend-off-putins-information-war/ …

We are also taking aggressive steps to prevent this sort of meddling in the future by requiring verification of political advertisers and by making all ads on the platform visible to anyone who cares to examine them.https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2017/10/update-on-our-advertising-transparency-and-authenticity-efforts/ …

Don’t try to justify what’s unjustifiable. We know FB made billions off the Russian ads. We also know FB didn’t ban millions of fake Russian accounts too. So now do the right thing. Undo what you’ve done and invest in getting the OLD CARTOON MONSTER out of the White House.

Yes of course. We will blindly trust your self-serving analysis. How much do you miss the days when you could just sit back and collect a paycheck instead of having to *look* at the ads on your garbage site?

For someone in your position, claiming to be this naive is embarrassing. It never occurred to you this is their MO? Pass

I hope this Rob Goldman be indicted by Mueller. His twitting shows he’s nervous about something

Oh so the VP of Facebook Ads explains what happened how most ads were bought AFTER the election and his explanation completely kills yours and the medias narrative and you want him imprisoned for it? HAHA good ole communist wanna be Democrats
