Mueller Subpoenas Former Cambridge Analytica Employee


Special Counsel Robert Mueller has Subpoenaed a Former Employee of Data Firm Cambridge Analytica.

Cambridge Analytica Ltd (CA) was a British Political Consulting firm which combined Data Mining, Data Brokerage, and Data Analysis with Strategic Communication during the Electoral Processes.

The Company was founded by Conservative Businessmen Steve Bannon, Bannon's Stake in the Company was Estimated at 1 to 5 Million Dollars but he Divested his Holdings in April 2017 as Required by his Role as White House Chief Strategist, and partly Owned by the Family of Robert Mercer, an American Hedge-Fund Manager who Supports many Politically Conservative Causes.

CEO Alexander Nix has said CA was involved in 44 U.S. Political Races in 2014. In 2015, CA performed Data Analysis Services for Ted Cruz's Presidential Campaign. In 2016, CA worked for Trump's Presidential Campaign. Political Scientists Question CA's claims about the Effectiveness of its Methods of Targeting Voters.

The ex-employee, Brittany Kaiser, is Cooperating fully with Mueller's Investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 Election.

Kaiser is also Cooperating with Congressional and other Legal Investigations into the Actions of Cambridge Analytica.

Cambridge Analytica shut down last year after becoming Embroiled in Controversy for improperly Obtaining Data on Tens of Millions of Facebook Users.

Kaiser says that the Subpoena came after it was reported last year that she Met in 2017 with WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange while she was still Working for Cambridge Analytica.

WikiLeaks is a focus of Mueller's Probe because it Released Hacked Democratic Emails ahead of the 2016 Election.

The Special Counsel has also previously probed the Ties between Cambridge Analytica and the Trump Campaign.

In a Case stemming from Mueller's Probe, Federal Prosecutors have already Charged Sam Patten, another Former Employee of the Firm and an Ex-Associate of Paul Manafort.

Patten pleaded Guilty last year to Illegal Foreign Lobbying after he was Charged with Failing to Register as a Foreign Agent for Ukraine's Opposition Bloc. Patten, who Agreed to Cooperate with the Special Counsel, is Scheduled to be Sentenced in April 2019.

A Company run by Former Officials at CA has quietly been working for President Trump’s 2020 Re-Election effort. At least Four Former CA Employees are Affiliated with Data Propria, a New Company Specializing in Voter and Consumer Targeting work similar to CA’s efforts before its Collapse. The Company’s Former Head of Product Development, Matt Oczkowski, Leads the New Firm, which also includes CA’s Former Chief Data Scientist.
