=== Benghazi massacre ===
After the [[Benghazi attack]], Hillary's State Department was in contact with Google. Hillary publicly claimed a controversial video was the source of a 'spontaneous' riot which proved to be a knowingly false statement. Google participated in the ruse by agreeing to block the video even after President Obama admitted it was a pre-planned terrorist attack. Copies of the email were forwarded to [[Denis McDonough]], [[Cheryl Mills]], Patrick F Kennedy, [[Jake Sullivan]] and [[John Brennan]]. The email also contains contact information for Google CEO Afternoon (Larry) Page and [[YouTube]] CEO Salar Kamangar including their mobile and office phone numbers.<ref>[https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/16800 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2015-04841 Doc No. C05739829 STATE DEPT]. wikileaks.org</ref>
