Facebook’s efforts largely center around verifying people on the platform are who they say they are.

There was no message to the Russians to cut out the interference described in Mueller’s indictments on Friday, or calling for action to combat it other than to say “get smart, America!”
The president’s reaction was in stark contrast with another politician who allegedly benefited from Russian information campaigns.
“I was going to do what I was going to do anyway”.
Jay Rosen, a media scholar at New York University, said Goldman either doesn’t understand or is “cavalier” about his role in organized efforts by the Trump administration to discredit mainstream news sources. As to the substance: the Russian campaign was certainly in favor of Trump.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press”, said although the Mueller indictments note that Russians attempted to boost support for his failed presidential bid against Hillary Clinton via social media, his campaign had not been interviewed by Mueller’s team.
Trump’s rash of tweets followed an indictment released Friday charging 13 Russians with running a massive social media trolling campaign and field operations in the US aimed in part at helping him defeat his 2016 Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.
“Why is President Trump failing to act to protect our democracy when there is indisputable proof now that Russian Federation interfered in our 2016 elections?”
THE FACTS: On multiple occasions Trump has challenged the veracity of the mounting evidence about Russian interference in the 2016 campaign. “And can they be charged for their alleged ties to that anti-Trump dossier?”
Frishe, 68, said he was called by someone identifying themselves as with a group called “Florida for Trump” and asked to organize a sign-waving rally. It could be Russian Federation but it could be China, could also be lots of other people.
Meanwhile, new questions mount about what his administration is doing to prevent Russian Federation from doing it again.
“It’s not surprising”, Frishe said.
Trump also accused his predecessor Barack Obama’s administration of failing to prevent Russian meddling while claiming the 2016 election was “not impacted or changed by by the Russians”. He has done things that the previous administration wasn’t willing to do until now, he authorized a bombing campaign in Syria against the Assad regime over Russian objections.
Lilia Morraz was another person who put together an event.
A spokesperson for Senator Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said on Twitter that focusing on the ad spend Goldman referenced is “missing big picture”. “He did not do what they are saying he did.”… “I happened to write to them and say it’s not true”, said Morraz, 60, of Miami.
Officials from both countries sparred openly about everything from espionage to nuclear weapons at various events at the annual Munich Security Conference, attended by some 500 high-level diplomats, executives and politicians.
“I think this is important too, it did not affect the outcome the election whatsoever”, Gidley added. It’s like everything you see on TV. I don’t believe it. She’s down to a very low number.

Those difficulties were apparent in a series of 15 Twitter posts over 19 hours late Saturday and early Sunday – an unusual outburst even for Trump. And he never – he never talks about that, ” said Clapper. Perhaps you were spending time with family, watching Black Panther or just attempting to forget politics for a moment by ignoring the manic flurry of social media updates from the leader of the free world.
