Original Note:
The accusation of a State Department "Pedo-ring" is a well debunked far-right conspiracy theory. In 2014, a senior advisor at the State Department was accused of favoritism and sexual harassment of subordinates. Clinton refused to fire him at the time. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/26/us/politics/hillary-clinton-chose-to-shield-a-top-adviser-accused-of-harassment-in-2008.html https://www.factcheck.org/2019/06/headlines-twist-old-report-on-state-department/
