Hillary's emails? Old news. Who wants to see JARED and IVANKA's emails?

And all the other Trump team people who've used personal email accounts for work?

Why hasn't any MSM org done a FOIA request on Jared and Ivanka's emails, since they've been sending/receiving government emails on their personal accounts?

This piece was written more than 3 months ago and most people seem to have forgotten:

http://beta.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-kushner-emails-20170927-story.html

Will Democrats soon be chanting “lock them up?”

Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and close advisor, disclosed through his lawyer on Sunday that he has been using personal e-mail for government business. He’s not the only one. Kushner’s emails were on a private server he shares with his wife, Ivanka Trump; she’s on the White House staff, too. Trump’s first White House chief of staff, Reince Priebus, economic advisor Gary Cohn, policy aide Stephen Miller and former advisor Stephen Bannon have all used private email for official work as well. And there may be more.

Kushner's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, says it's not as bad as it looks. (He's a very good lawyer.) Lowell says Kushner has forwarded all the "non-personal" emails on his server to his government account, to make them part of official government records.

Lowell has not, however, responded to questions about whether any classified information made its way into Kushner's emails or how secure the Javanka server is — two factors that were central to the charges against Clinton. Nor is it entirely clear from Lowell's brief statement whether Kushner ever deleted emails he considered personal, another core piece of the GOP case against Clinton.


The below article is about the email of Sarah Flores, but the points would apply to other DT people, too:
(Note: the federal law that the DT people are ignoring only took affect after Hillary left office.)

http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2017/03/02/is_it_legal_to_use_a_private_gmail_account_for_government_business.html

Thus, short of monitoring all government employee communications—which would raise a host of other privacy concerns—it’s may be hard to know how to proceed. Even when it isn’t nefarious, email usage like Flores’ therefore presents a challenge for those committed to government oversight.

As Valvo observes, it should raise questions for government officials as well. “If government officials are using their personal accounts, they need to be aware, first, that they are not in compliance with federal records laws. And second that they’re opening their personal emails up to search in response to FOIA requests,” he says.

a thumb drive of Cambridge Analytica data on election targeting. Happened off the secluded island of Huva. Not sure if Ivanka would have been with him or if this was the "girls day". As time goes by, this keeps seeming more likely. As you can tell, I played Clue in the past. It always seemed logical, then it turned out that the Oligarch yacht and jet were there too. Too many things line up for it just to be coincidence.
