The Obama Administration, Congress, political campaigns and other government agencies have a strange ongoing relationship with Google.

Looks like hundreds of people have gone through the revolving door similar to the Goldman Sachs revolving door.

Makes you wonder what role Google itself is playing in government.

Many have gone to and from the White House itself, and the State Department and FCC and some national security agencies and Department of Defense.

Hmmmm


Google employees have enjoyed revolving door during Obama administration


More than 250 people have moved from Google and related firms to the federal government or vice versa since President Barack Obama took office.

The Google Transparency Project, the work of Campaign for Accountability, poured over reams of data to find 258 instances of “revolving door activity” between Google or its associated companies and the federal government, national political campaigns and Congress since 2009.

Much of that revolving door activity took place at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, where 22 former White House officials went to work for Google and 31 executives from Google and related firms went to work at the White House or were appointed to federal advisory boards by Obama. Those boards include the President’s Council on Science and Technology and the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.

The same goes for members of the media. They go from Democrat politician, to member of the media and sometimes back to being a Democrat.
