DEMOCRATIC OPERATIVES USED MISLEADING FACEBOOK PAGES TO SUPPRESS GOP TURNOUT IN MIDTERMS
The Daily Callwe ^ | 01/08/2019 | Peter Hasson

Democratic operatives, led by a former Obama official, bought ads on misleading Facebook pages to suppress GOP turnout in the midterm elections.

The pages appear to be designed to give the impression that they were operated by disgruntled conservatives rather than Democratic operatives.

The operatives were funded by left-wing billionaire Reid Hoffman, who previously funded a “false flag” effort in the 2017 Alabama special election.

Linked In is now Linked BeGone here.

Those that seek to deceive in ways like this, deceive no one. They only cheat becuz there is no goodness in their souls or sanity in their offerings.

To use sites that are intended to inform as a weapon instead to destroy and suppress support and votes is worthy of prosecution in my humble opinion.. and worthy of prosecution and imprisonment.

Haven’t we heard, practically non-stop for the last two years, how this was a bad thing? Ne a high crime deserving the most severe punishment?

If the RATs are offering body parts and offering to pay any price to keep Ruth Buzzy-Ginsburg from leaving the Court at least until 2021 it’s obvious political power is all that matters to these cretins! They’ll do anything to get it, and retain it at any cost!

But this phoney Trump-Russia collusion probe continues on and on and on! Nothing will be investigated or done to the democrats involved in this. But the Trump-Russia thing continues.

Interesting that people can be swayed politically just by a Facebook ad or a bot (Russians).

All those involved should be making little rocks out of big rocks all day every day except Sunday to let their calluses heal.

If people are so stupid that Facebook is going to keep them from going to the polls then they deserve to be governed by Democrats.

Thought real conservatives were smart enough to recognize and avoid Zuckerberg’s money trap from its very beginning.

The pages appear to be designed to give the impression that they were operated by disgruntled conservatives rather than Democratic operatives.

These groups also send 'letters to the editor' pretending to be Conservatives, letters to our congresspeople (proving every negative stereotype they put out about conservatives) etc etc.

It's been going on for decades...
