Republicans own the Senate.A report prepared for the Senate that provides the most sweeping analysis yet of Russia’s disinformation campaign around the 2016 election found the operation used every major social media platform to deliver words, images and videos tailored to voters’ interests to help elect President Trump — and worked even harder to support him while in office.
The report, a draft of which was obtained by The Washington Post, is the first to study the millions of posts provided by major technology firms to the Senate Intelligence Committee, led by Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.), its chairman, and Sen. Mark Warner (Va.), its ranking Democrat. The bipartisan panel hasn’t said whether it endorses the findings. It plans to release it publicly along with another study later this week.

Russians favored Trump
Waiting for the Trump spin
Friday late in the day is my prediction for its release
But conservatives sweared to us that they could never be duped by memes and slogans. They are the hard-core intellectuals who think about things logically without any emotion.
Did you note where Google (YouTube) and FB ( Instagram and others) provided difficult to read data. Appears they are jamming it up, slows it down

No one can change the iron-clad mind of a Trump supporter.
Marketing, propaganda, Fox news B.S., these things don't work, they don't actually *cause* a person to choose anything!
Marketing, propaganda, psychoanalytics, these things only work on liberals, because they are weak!
This is all just sour grapes at losing the 2016 election!!

... The Russians aimed particular energy at activating conservatives on issues such as gun rights and immigration, while sapping the political clout of left-leaning African American voters by undermining their faith in elections and spreading misleading information about how to vote. Many other groups — Latinos, Muslims, Christians, gay men and women, liberals, Southerners, veterans — got at least some attention from Russians operating thousands of social media accounts. ...

Perspective: Google was asked how much Russia spent on their advertising. The answer $5400, Sheldon Adelson donated about $100 million.
Collate the information in context. No big deal.

tRumpvangelicals were not the only targets of the russian use of social media
their efforts also targeted left leaning readers to discourage voting:
Agreed. Even how much money was spent is immaterial, what the actual impact is what is probably more important, and I don't think there's a single poll or study out that concludes that 'I voted for Trump because of the crappy Russian social media ads'.
More unsubstantial bull**** accusations and innuendo from the Democrats, political left, trumpeted to prominence, to the near exclusion of anything else, by the complicit DNC propaganda arm AKA the media.

WASHINGTON — There is no evidence that Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election affected the actual vote count, according to the first installment of the Senate Intelligence Committee's Russia report, released Tuesday.
"The Committee has not seen any evidence that vote tallies were manipulated or that voter registration information was deleted or modified," the report said, confirming a January 2017 assessment by U.S. intelligence agencies.
However, the committee concluded that hackers affiliated with the Russian Government "conducted an unprecedented, coordinated cyber campaign against state election infrastructure."
"Russian actors scanned databases for vulnerabilities, attempted intrusions, and in a small number of cases successfully penetrated a voter registration database," the panel found. "This activity was part of a larger campaign to prepare to undermine confidence in the voting process."
You really believe that's all the Russians spent? They only had one guy working on this, and someone who was making minimum wage?
They undoubtedly spent millions, they were after all making their man in the POTUS. And what a payoff for Putin! Helsinki alone was likely worth it, as Trump stood united with Putin against all branches of the American Intelligence Community. Add in the damage Trump has done to long and strong alliances, and Putin must be happier than a proverbial pig in ****.
Whether Trump as intentionally helping Russia, or just acting as a useful idiot, Putin and Russia have done spectacularly with his help.
Do you believe the senate report from last spring? Or are you calling it spin?
Senate report: No evidence that Russians changed vote tallies in 2016
