Former Trump campaign CEO and White House chief strategist Steve Bannon directed Cambridge Analytica — the scandal-plagued data firm hired by the Trump campaign — to research voter suppression tactics to discourage Democrats from voting in the 2016 presidential election, according to whistleblower Christopher Wylie.
Wylie, a former Cambridge Analytica employee, told Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee this week that Bannon ordered the data firm to explore methods for “discouraging particular types of voters who are more prone to voting for Democratic or liberal candidates.”
“There is one document which I have that specifically says — in bold terms — voter disengagement as an objective in the United States,” Wylie said, according to testimony released Wednesday.
Asked if he had ever heard Bannon specifically talk about voter disenfranchisement or voter disengagement, Wylie replied “Yes.”

I know that since the sexual predator was having a "motormouth melt down yesterday" and that Maddow had a short clip on this issue, but the television media is fucking failing the country and not mentioning this on the nightly news.............
