Are you still reading the Mueller report?  Any goodies that few have noticed?

I've started going back over it to compile excerpts but I do have a summary prepared.

Russia Interference in the 2016 Election - It is concluded that this did take place by way of massive social media campaigns from bots (unattended computer accounts), paid trolls and ad campaigns. They organized grass roots rallies by posing as US citizens. They also hacked and phished (a social engineering method to obtain access credentials) networks for Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Convention and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and released infiltrated information to Wikileaks.

Collusion - It is concluded that direct conspiracy between the Trump Campaign and Russia did not happen. It is noted that attempts to open communication between the two entities failed. It is also noted that while they did not work together, they did work in concert. The Trump Campaign knew of the above referenced interference and not only did not act on mitigating it but encouraged further activity. It wasn't so much coordinated collusion as it was welcomed, accepted and requested interference. Much of the requested evidence was either destroyed or not stored on devices with long term storage.

Obstruction - It is concluded that the President Trump had directly interfered with the Special Council investigation but that because of the rights and authority granted a president, he cannot be charged with any obstruction based crime. It is the Department of Justice policy to not indict a sitting president. Robert Mueller has specifically given indictment purview to Congress. Much of the requested evidence was either destroyed or not stored on devices with long term storage.

Further actions - Several aspects of all three facets of the investigation were handed off to other investigating bodies depending on the nature of the crime being investigated. We have already seen many of those reach their conclusion but several more are still on-going. Much of the Mueller Report was redacted due in part to those on-going investigations.

"It is concluded that this did take place by way of massive social media campaigns from bots (unattended computer accounts), paid trolls and ad campaigns."

do you or anyone else have any examples of these ads that russians paid for to influence people from an entirely different culture?
