Hmmmm……

Nancy and her minions getting nervous?

Why do they want a CLASSIFIED briefing?

 

Pelosi presses Ryan for classified briefing on election security

 

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is pressing Republican leaders for a classified briefing on efforts to secure the country’s election security ahead of the midterms later this year.

In a letter to Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), Pelosi said the decision by Republicans to hold an unclassified meeting scheduled for Thursday fails to recognize “the gravity of the assault on our electoral system.”

 

“Only a classified briefing would address the seriousness of the attack on our democracy,” she wrote.

 

Thursday’s briefing is designed to update lawmakers on steps the Trump administration is taking to prevent similar attempts to meddle in the November midterms. Providing that update will be Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats and FBI Director Christopher Wray.

 

Democrats, who have urged such a briefing for months, have pushed back on the unclassified nature of the meeting.

Facebook Says It Deleted 865 Million Posts, Mostly Spam

 

Samuel Woolley, research director of the Institute for the Future, a think tank in Palo Alto, Calif., said Facebook needed to bring in more independent voices to corroborate their numbers.“Why should anyone believe what Facebook says about this, when they have such a bad track record about letting the public know about misuse of their platform as it is happening?” he said. “We are relying on Facebook to self-report on itself, without any independent vetting. That is concerning to me.”

 

Facebook previously declined to reveal its content removal efforts, citing a lack of internal metrics. Instead, it published a country-by-country breakdown of how many requests it received from governments to obtain Facebook data or restrict content from Facebook users in that country. Those figures did not specify what type of data the governments asked for or what posts were restricted. Facebook also published a country-by-country report on Tuesday.
