Facebook's top lawyer told Congress as many as 126 million users saw Russia-linked content, which was designed to spur divisions regarding race, immigration, religion and policing in America.

The portal can't show you all the ads you saw, just the Russia-linked pages or accounts you liked or followed between January 2015 and August 2017. Facebook said the portal would be live by the end of this year.
