I don't care what the original story says. The point is they all use unauthorized e-mail addresses, that is MY POINT.
It seems that there are others who think along those lines as well:
Quote:

James Norton, a former senior homeland security official during the George W. Bush administration, said private accounts pose security risks — a criticism often raised against Mrs. Clinton.

“These private email accounts become targets of phishing attacks or other types of ways of collecting information,” he said. “It’s an issue not only for the person who owns that account, but the person who is receiving the emails. It is introducing risk into the system.”

Richard W. Painter, a chief White House ethics lawyer under Mr. Bush who is now the vice chairman of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a watchdog group, said that there is often a “gray area” over what is considered official business. But, he said, “If it has anything to do with the president’s policy, including defending the president’s policy to the press, it’s very difficult to escape that being official.”

“I think Kushner was sloppy to do this,” he said. “I think Hillary was sloppy. I don’t think any of it was criminal.”

The private email accounts immediately triggered questions in Congress. Representative Trey Gowdy, Republican of South Carolina, who was among those who most vociferously criticized Mrs. Clinton’s email use, sent a letter to the White House and federal agencies asking about the Trump administration’s personal email use.

Representative Elijah E. Cummings, the senior Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, asked the White House to make sure that none of Mr. Kushner’s emails are deleted.

Mr. Cummings noted that Trump administration officials had previously said that senior White House officials did not use multiple email accounts. And he reminded the White House about the grilling that Mrs. Clinton received from congressional Republicans over her email practices.

Both political parties have fought for years over the use of private email accounts. Long before Mrs. Clinton’s emails were a campaign issue, Democrats criticized members of the George W. Bush administration for the practice.

But, of course, according to our fellow FFF.net contributors, we are comparing apples and oranges.

What is the source of your "Quote" there?
Out of context cherry-picked phrases carefully selected, edited, kludged together by another of your fake news factories, again?
Really, again?

Wait a second - Elijah Cummings? You must be joking. Not even you could be clueless enough to actually quote that gasbag and conjure anybody would take you seriously!


Goodness, really? The actual New York Times Fake News Factory?
Well, now we know that every Fake News item they dole out is true, right? Shore yo right.

If they actually did something wrong, then I'm glad to know that there is enough oversight that they got caught doing it. That is the important thing. It would be nice to think that maybe our Government actually learned a lesson and at least something good came out of what Hillary did.

You have made a critical error. The MSM is not the Government.

I dunno... Jury is still out on that.

I wasn't saying that it was in that post though.

Agreed, some good lessons to be learned and some justice to be delivered. Again, once investigators complete their part and find the smoking gun; (arrest, trial) and once the finders of fact find the facts; well, jail time. (I list the steps because I have been accused of "cutting to the chase" - in other words, skipping over the obvious execution of the law).

Yeah. If there was true wrongdoing here than by all means there should be punishment for the crime. I wouldn't fall into the trap of "well Hillary got away for it, so everybody else should get out of jail free too".

That being said, I hope Trump makes good on the promise to lock her up. There needs to be an investigation into her crimes by a Justice Department that wasn't in her pockets.

Not a " personal server ", but merely 1 account.

Like Hillary.



Court rules that Kushner firm must disclose partners' names

A federal judge ruled on Friday that the family company once run by Jared Kushner isn't allowed to keep the identity of its business partners in several Maryland properties secret.

A district court in the state rejected the argument that the privacy rights of the Kushner Cos. partners outweigh the public interest in obtaining judicial records in a lawsuit before the court. The decision means that the company tied to President Donald Trump's son-in-law might be forced to provide a rare glimpse into how it finances its real estate ventures.

Well now, we are finally accepting the truth of the matter, and the inevitable.

The law is the law, is the law! Glad to see people still believe in the Rule of Law.
