John Boltons Cambridge Analytica Connection

[spotthebird]

Bolton’s super PAC has paid Cambridge Analytica more than $1.1 million since 2014 for “research” and “survey research,” a Center for Public Integrity analysis of campaign finance filings shows.

........................

The Bolton PAC is funded by all the usual suspects, but Robert Mercer is at the top of the list every time.

Bolton as national security advisor makes me feel safer already.

1. Was this bonafide research or just more money laundering?

Why would Bolton or his PAC need CA?

2. If Cambridge is a shell company and has no employees, who gets the money?

Just set up so money could swiss in and out and get cleaned?

3. Cambridge Analytica helped Republicans in Colorado win key political races

Cambridge Analytica helped Republicans in Colorado win key political races
The company under investigation in two countries helped to target voters in key Colorado Senate districts in 2014

Cambridge Analytica used Facebook data to create psychographic profiles that allowed Republican operatives to target specific Colorado voters in battleground state Senate districts in 2014.

A former employee of a Trump-affiliated data-mining firm, Cambridge Analytica, says it used algorithms that took fake news to the next level using data inappropriately obtained from Facebook.

snip--
Senate Majority Fund used the data to craft six mailers in 2014, but its not clear how much the fund paid the firm. Cambridge Analytica is not listed in the Colorado political committees state campaign finance records or in federal nonprofit filings.

The company backed by Robert Mercer, a wealthy Republican donor, and tied to Donald Trumps political adviser Steve Bannon is facing investigations in the United Kingdom and United States after it obtained the information from a Russian-American academic researcher.
