The Daily Wire’s Ryan Saavedra reports Monday night that Fox News’ Tucker Carlson ran an exclusive report on an email by Eliana Murillo, former head of multicultural marketing at Google, that was sent out the day after the 2016 presidential election. That email seems to show an effort by Google to influence the election, particularly by getting out the Latino vote in key states like Florida and Arizona.

Carlson reported that Murillo said that Arizona was a “key state for us,” and bragged that the company “used its power to ensure that millions of people saw certain hashtags and social media impressions with the goal of influencing their behavior during the election.”
“[Google] supported partners like Voto Latino to pay for rides to the polls in key states,” the email allegedly states, describing the assistance as a “silent donation.”
…
“Ultimately, after all was said and done, the Latino community did come out to vote, and completely surprised us,” the email alleged states. “We never anticipated 29% of Latinos would vote for Trump. No one did.”
Murillo concluded by asking employees to give any Latino Googler they encountered that day a smile: “They are probably hurting right now. You can rest assured that the Latinos of these blue states need your thoughts and prayers for them and their families.”

Wow! President Trump had ALL of the powerhouses plotting against him.
It just goes to show you that real power comes from us patriots.
Let's show 'em again! #midterms
Well done @TuckerCarlson— OldGlory (@GallantStreams) September 11, 2018
At the very least should be considered an illegal campaign contribution to Nth degree.

FEC needs to investigate, put a dollar value on the bias, and classify it as an in-kind contribution to the Democrat party.

Would that be legal? Imagine that could violate all types of campaign finance laws and possible fraud since campaigns likely pay Google for ad location and search prioritization.
I’ve always thought social media screwed GOP candidates too.

It's not surprising, it's a huge coup against Republicans. Big Tech, FBI/DOJ and Obama. This why they never wanted Republicans to get back into the power so they could hide it all. All of this needs to be investigated and this is why the mid-terms are crucial.

This should not surprise any of us

Guess that blows the excuses for Hillary losing for the left. They obsess about Russia meddling for Trump. They are silent on big tech meddling against Trump which helped Hillary.

I can't possibly be shocked… every single newsletter than even leans *slightly* conservative gets spam-trapped by their gmail filters. Control the narrative and you control thought..

Anyone who's done more than one google search already knew this….look who runs it.
