(22,840 posts)A spokesman for Brittany Kaiser, former business development director for Cambridge Analytica which collapsed after the Observer revealed details of its misuse of Facebook data confirmed that she had been subpoenaed by special counsel Robert Mueller, and was cooperating fully with his investigation.
He added that she was assisting other US congressional and legal investigations into the companys activities and had voluntarily turned over documents and data.
Kaiser, who gave evidence to the UK parliament last April in which she claimed Cambridge Analytica had carried out in-depth work for Leave.EU, is the second individual connected to the firm subpoenaed by the special counsel. The Electoral Commission has said its investigation into Leave.EU found no evidence that the campaign received donations or paid for services from Cambridge Analytica beyond initial scoping work.
Damian Collins, chairman of parliaments inquiry into fake news, said it was no surprise that Kaiser was under scrutiny by Mueller because her work connected her to WikiLeaks, Cambridge Analytica and [its parent company] SCL, the Trump campaign, Leave.EU and Arron Banks.

(105,836 posts)It's good to have it reported in American-based media as well as British.
Cadwalladr has got multiple awards for her work on Cambridge Analytica:

He said it was now vital Britain had its own inquiry into foreign interference: We should not be leaving this to the Americans. Tom Watson, the deputy leader of the Labour party, echoed Collinss statement, saying: This is the first evidence that a significant player in the Leave.EU campaign is of interested to the global Mueller inquiry.
