As far as Eric Schmidt, interesting timing after a certain Executive Order signed by Trump.
Remember Schmidt worth over $14 Billion aiding Hillary Clinton in running a campaign.
He also is known to have an open marriage. More on this later found in sources at bottom of page.
Let's get to the pertinent info regarding Eric Schmidt's correspondence showing how he used his money, power and influence to aide Hillary Clinton.
Emails posted to wikileaks from John Podesta's computer.
Email to Cheryl Mills.
First remember Mills was deputy White House Counsel for President Bill Clinton, whom she defended during his 1999 impeachment trial.
served as Senior Adviser and Counsel for Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign, and is considered a member of Hillary Clinton's group of core advisers, self-designated as "Hillaryland"] She served as Counselor and Chief of Staff to Hillary Clinton during her whole tenure as United States Secretary of State.
Below are the images, to see them clearly you can go to a verified wikileaks page source at bottom, they are copied here,

Cheryl, I have put together my thoughts on the campaign ideas and I have
scheduled some meetings in the next few weeks for veterans of the campaign
to tell me how to make these ideas better. This is simply a draft but do
let me know if this is a helpful process for you all. Thanks !! Eric
Notes for a 2016 Democratic Campaign
Eric Schmidt
April 2014
DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT
Here are some comments and observations based on what we saw in the 2012
campaign. If we get started soon, we will be in a very strong position to
execute well for 2016.
- Size, Structure and Timing
Lets assume a total budget of about $1.5Billion, with more than 5000 paid
employees and million(s) of volunteers. The entire startup ceases
operation four days after November 8, 2016. The structure includes a
Chairman or Chairwoman who is the external face of the campaign and a
President who is the executive in charge of objectives, measurements,
systems and building and managing the organization.
Every day matters as our end date does not change. An official campaign
right after midterm elections and a preparatory team assembled now is best.
- Location
The campaign headquarters will have about a thousand people, mostly young
and hardworking and enthusiastic. Its important to have a very large
hiring pool (such as Chicago or NYC) from which to choose enthusiastic,
smart and low paid permanent employees. DC is a poor choice as its full of
distractions and interruptions. Moving the location from DC elsewhere
guarantees visitors have taken the time to travel and to help.
The key is a large population of talented people who are dying to work for
you. Any outer borough of NYC, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Boston are all good
examples of a large, blue state city to base in.
Employees will relocate to participate in the campaign, and will find low
cost temporary housing or live with campaign supporters on a donated basis.
This worked well in Chicago and can work elsewhere.
The computers will be in the cloud and most likely on Amazon Web services
(AWS). All the campaign needs are portable computers, tablets and smart
phones along with credit card readers.
- The pieces of a Campaign
a) The Field
Its important to have strong field leadership, with autonomy and
empowerment. Operations talent needs to build the offices, set up the
systems, hire the people, and administer what is about 5000 people.
Initial modeling will show heavy hiring in the key battleground states.
There is plenty of time to set these functions up and build the human
systems. The field is about organizing people, voter contact, and get out
the vote programs.
For organizing tools, build a simple way to link people and activities as a
workflow and let the field manage the system, all cloud based. Build a
simple organizing tool with a functioning back-end. Avoid deep integration
as the benefits are not worth it. Build on the cloud. Organizing is
really about sharing and linking people, and this tool would measure and
track all of it.
There are many other crucial early investments needed in the field:
determining the precise list of battleground states, doing early polling to
confirm initial biases, and maintaining and extending voter protection
programs at the state level.
b) The Voter
Key is the development of a single record for a voter that aggregates all
that is known about them. In 2016 smart phones will be used to identify,
meet, and update profiles on the voter. A dynamic volunteer can easily
speak with a voter and, with their email or other digital handle, get the
voter videos and other answers to areas they care about ("the benefits of
ACA to you" etc.)
The scenario includes a volunteer on a walk list, encountering a potential
voter, updating the records real time and deepening contact with the voter
and the information we have to offer.
c) Digital
A large group of campaign employees will use digital marketing methods to
connect to voters, to offer information, to use social networks to spread
good news, and to raise money. Partners like Blue State Digital will do
much of the fund raising. A key point is to convert BSD and other partners
to pure cloud service offerings to handle the expected crush and load.
d) Media (paid), (earned) and (social), and polling
New tools should be developed to measure reach and impact of paid, earned
and social media. The impact of press coverage should be measurable in
reach and impact, and TV effectiveness measured by attention and other
surveys.
Build tools that measure the rate and spread of stories and rumors, and
model how it works and who has the biggest impact. Tools can tell us about
the origin of stories and the impact of any venue, person or theme.
Connect polling into this in some way.
Find a way to do polling online and not on phones.
e) Analytics and data science and modeling, polling and resource
optimization tools
For each voter, a score is computed ranking probability of the right vote.
Analytics can model demographics, social factors and many other attributes
of the needed voters. Modeling will tell us what who we need to turn out
and why, and studies of effectiveness will let us know what approaches work
well. Machine intelligence across the data should identify the most
important factors for turnout, and preference.
It should be possible to link the voter records in Van with upcoming
databases from companies like Comcast and others for media measurement
purposes.
The analytics tools can be built in house or partnered with a set of
vendors.
f) Core engineering, voter database and contact with voters online
The database of voters (NGP Van) is a fine starting point for voter records
and is maintained by the vendor (and needs to be converted to the cloud).
The code developed for 2012 (Narwahl etc.) is unlikely to be used, and
replaced by a model where the vendor data is kept in the Van database and
intermediate databases are arranged with additional information for a voter.
Quite a bit of software is to be developed to match digital identities with
the actual voter file with high confidence. The key unit of the campaign
is a "voter", and each and every record is viewable and updatable by
volunteers in search of more accurate information.
In the case where we can't identify the specific human, we can still have a
partial digital voter id, for a person or "probable-person" with attributes
that we can identify and use to target. As they respond we can eventually
match to a registered voter in the main file. This digital key is
eventually matched to a real person.
The Rules
Its important that all the player in the campaign work at cost and there be
no special interests in the financing structure. This means that all
vendors work at cost and there is a separate auditing function to ensure no
one is profiting unfairly from the campaign. All investments and conflicts
of interest would have to be publicly disclosed. The rules of the audit
should include caps on individual salaries and no investor profits from the
campaign function. (For example, this rule would apply to me.)
The KEY things
a) early build of an integrated development team and recognition that this
is an entire system that has to be managed as such
b) decisions to exclusively use cloud solutions for scalability, and choice
of vendors and any software from 2012 that will be reused.
c) the role of the smart phone in the hands of a volunteer. The smart
phone manages the process, updates the database, informs the citizen, and
allows fundraising and recruitment of volunteers (on android and iphone).
d) early and continued focus of qualifying fundraising dollars to build the
field, and build all the tools. Outside money will be plentiful and
perfect for TV use. A smart media mix tool tells all we need to know about
media placement, TV versus other media and digital media.
Google TGIF Leaked Video
Blatant disappointed after their candidate they aided so much lost!
According to Daily Mail,
Prime Minister David Cameron has vowed to ‘put the heat on’ internet companies to eradicate the blight of child porn, while children’s charities have blamed Google and Microsoft for opening the floodgates of online porn into Britain.
Schmidt has also been criticised for helping Google avoid paying corporation tax in Britain: Recently released figures show Google paid a paltry £10.6 million in tax between 2006 and 2011 on revenue of £12 billion in the UK. Schmidt appeared before parliament’s public accounts committee in May, where chairman Margaret Hodge branded Google ‘devious’, ‘unethical’ and ‘evil’.
Eric Schmidt has been criticised because of his 'free and easy' approach to others' privacy while using his vast wealth to protect his own.
Sputnik News stated,
According to Lapinski, it is notable that Schmidt's resignation was announced mere hours after US President Donald Trump issued an executive order that blocks transactions of the property of persons involved in human rights abuses, human trafficking and corruption.
During the 2016 US presidential race, Schmidt played an instrumental role in Hillary Clinton's campaign, acting as what Lapinski called a "CTO" of the campaign. This became known when Clinton campaign chair John Podesta's emails were shared on WikiLeaks. The emails revealed Schmidt secretly funded the Groundwork Foundation, a top technology provider for Clinton.
In fact, Schmidt has a long list of political connections. According to the New York Post, "some people internally referred to his role as ‘Google's secretary of state.'"
"During President Barack Obama's administration, Mr. Schmidt, who has supported many Democratic politicians, prominently represented Google on policy matters," the newspaper writes. With Trump in office, though, Schmidt has become "eclipsed" by other Google employees, it says.
Schmidt's romantic lifestyle could come into play if he decides to proceed with his political aspirations. In a time when US senators are resigning over sexual abuse allegations, going into politics with an open marriage record is "something new," as the radio hosts put it.
"In Washington, cheating is not new. Not being monogamous is not new. That's done all time. But being in an open marriage? That's uncharted political territory," the hosts point out.
"He's definitely not operating on spectrum of your standard Washington, DC, politician," Lapinski agrees. "He's used to operating from the shadows."
Lapinski says he can't imagine how Schmidt is going to fare in Washington. Schmidt in his announcement said he is going to move into philanthropy, "whatever that means," Lapinski scoffed.
Tech executives getting involved in philanthropy "usually hasn't work out all too well," he noted.
Lapinski also pointed out that for a Silicon Valley CEO to go to Washington would be even an stranger move, as Silicon Valley companies typically refrain from openly engaging in politics, even though some, like Google, have supported political protests in the recent past.

Eric Schmidt, not only did he steer an election in Hillary Clinton's favor, but he has clearly enjoyed his "open marriage," whether agreed upon by spouse or not!
