The US election team will be established by the end of the year.The moves underscore worries of a new boom in political interference as the United States enters a pivotal campaign season.

Yeah!! Right !! 😉Are they going to stop their own interference

I don’t trust Facebook.

Delete Facebook. The US citizenry has no need for companies allowing partisan deep-fake videos, election bot interference, and GOP convention sponsorship. Eff em.

What's Facebook?

Is anyone using Facebook anymore? It's so 2008.

MAGA cult base won’t like this very much. Prospects of being caught cheating will piss them off.

America: where citizens of other countries influencing our elections is bad, but citizens of other countries influencing our census and representation in Congress isn’t. This is beyond parody.

You mean a conservative censorship group.....
