You’ll be glad to know that your tax dollars were wasted on election day by both Obama and James Comey to monitor social media for “fake news” and memes. This despite the fact everyone expected Hillary Clinton to easily win, with every poll saying as much. Even Obama and Comey had to believe their own BS about Clinton easily winning in November. So then why would Obama and Comey have to monitor social media for “fake news” and memes? Even more ironic, it’s the fake news kings at CNN that claim this “exclusive” story.

The FBI monitored social media on Election Day last year in an effort to track a suspected Russian disinformation campaign utilizing “fake news,” CNN has learned.
In the months leading up to Election Day, Twitter and Facebook were the feeding grounds for viral “news” stories floating conspiracies and hoaxes, many aimed at spreading negative false claims about Hillary Clinton.
On Election Day, dozens of agents and analysts huddled at a command center arrayed with large monitoring screens at the FBI headquarters in Washington watching for security threats, according to multiple sources.
