The FBI engaged in a systemic, strategic effort to generate  public concerns  of “Russian collusion” during and after the 2016 presidential campaign.

On Tuesday, December 11, 2018, Google CEO Sundar Pichai testified before the House Judiciary Committee. Pichai was called to explain Google business practices including data collection and targeting of conservative voices. During questioning Pichai  admitted Russia spent only $4,700 on advertisements during the 2016 election.[ In a campaign where Hillary Clinton spent nearly a billion dollars.]

Russia also paid around $70,000 on Facebook ads to attract both Trump and Hillary supporters. Russia spent around $6,000 on Facebook ads the last six weeks of the election which had no effect on the election.

Russia spent a total of around $75,000 to run ads on US social media during the 2016 election — both to promote Hillary AND Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, the FBI spent much more for” Russian dirt” than Russia paid on collusion.

Along with the DNC and Hillary campaign, the FBI picked up a significant percentage of the tab for the Steele dossier.The FBI paid Christopher Steele’s travel and other expenses while he was putting together his  “dossier” on Trump.

The Clinton campaign paid DNC lawyer Marc Elias and his law firm Perkins Coie paid Fusion GPS and later denied knowledge of the same dossier they paid for.

And the FBI paid Michael Steele from Fusion GPS $160,000 for travel expenses while he was digging up dirt for his  “dossier”.
