House lawmakers investigating Russia’s suspected meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election are hoping to release copies of the 3,000 Facebook ads purchased by Kremlin-aligned agents and trolls.
The move by the House Intelligence Committee — announced by its leaders on Wednesday —comes as Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg huddles with lawmakers on the panel and others in Congress who are newly eyeing Russia’s disinformation campaign on social media.
