Title: Russian “Propaganda” is Still Making Headlines
Topic: Donald Trump

Discussed by Rob Bluey
with The Heritage Foundation (www.Heritage.org)

Reports indicate that, although Russian entities paid to have political ads ran during the 2016 election, as few as .0004% of Americans even saw them. However, lawmakers are now using this information to reignite their attempt to regulate social media, stifling free speech.

New guest, Rob Bluey, says this is definitely not the road to take. Rob is representing The Heritage Foundation today and is also the Senior Vice President of Communications and Editor in Chief of the Daily Signal.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Did Russian Political ads sway enough voters in any swing state to change the outcome of the 2016 vote?

How much money, on average, did the Russians spend on each political ad?

Has the US Government ever tried to sway the outcome of a foreign election?

Can foreign governments/citizens own TV, Radio signals, or newspapers within the US?

Have courts ruled that lies can be told by politicians and media outlets and it’s up to the voter who is telling the truth?

Are some lawmakers attempting to use the situation to bully social media and technology companies?
