In its final, climactic push for Donald Trump, the Kremlin’s troll army enlisted new members: semi-dormant propaganda accounts created as far back as 2009.

Facebook, Google and Twitter disclosed more about Russian agents’ use of their platforms in the 2016 election as they prepare for hearings before Congress.

If "fake news" sites tipped the 2016 U.S. presidential election in the wrong direction, we need to be vigilant to make sure that the next four years (and beyond) are not further manipulated.

Donald Trump owns a ton of domains. Or more accurately, The Trump Organization does.

Donald Trump's Super Tuesday victories in the GOP presidential primaries means more Americans are considering moving to Canada if he actually wins the presidency in November.
