Don’t forget about encrypted devices!
Gowdy just announced that open hearings will begin…
…never.
“With numerous public revelations of senior executive branch employees deliberately trying to circumvent [federal] laws by using personal, private, or alias e-mail addresses to conduct official government business, the Committee has aimed to use its oversight and investigative resources to prevent and deter misuse of private forms of written communication,”
Stronger language than I’d have thought Gowdy would have agreed to use in a first letter. I guess he doesn’t buy the line - correction…lie - that the WH is putting out there about limited use of private email to share media stories.
What they’l find after an extensive investigation is that the government email system is so old and inefficient that’s it’s nearly impossible to use effectively. They’ll then declare that the use of private email servers by White House staff members really is justified-- unless you’re Hillary Clinton.
Geez, even Gowdy recognizes the hypocrisy of not pursuing Trumpers using personal email. Who’s been talking to him?
Exactly - and then call for more investigations of Hillary. As one of the reich-wingers in the House stated it: Hillary’s emails are the worst security breach in the history of the country.
Finally, a potential ethical/legal/security breach by the White House of enough importance to wake the hibernating House Oversight Committee.
For the sake of the White House and our country, I hope the private email services didn’t use servers in a residential closet. Such servers just don’t offer the security that for-profit companies can provide.
Awesome graphic here:
Since Hilary’s tenure as SOS it is now illegal for anyone in government to use private email. Now these people are breaking the law. Hilary, not so much.
Donald Trump, the President, is using a PRIVATE TWITTER ACCOUNT. And he’s regularly using it for official WH business. Isn’t that a violation of the PRA right there?
They want to be hacked - it is a form of communication with the Russians.
Since I trust these suckers as far as I can throw a piano Gowdy must be preparing the paperwork for a Trump pardon.
It is almost as if he is begging them to please make this go away. Can’t believe the difference in tone that he gives this flagrant act of hypocrisy. Where’s the “Lock them up! We will prosecute until they are behind bars!”
Gowdy just wants to know what the private email addresses are, so he can be up to date with the latest, greatest fuckery that the WH is planning.
The Fother Mucking Teahadist B*astard had no choice but to write the letter. He spent years and millions of dollars obsessing over Secretary Clinton and “her damned emails”
The Benghazi Committee is done, but Trey Gowdy isn’t finished with Hillary Clinton

WASHINGTON — The Benghazi Committee released its final report in June, but Rep. Trey Gowdy is far from done with Hillary Clinton…It was the investigation by Gowdy, as chairman of the Benghazi Committee, that accidentally uncovered Clinton’s use of a private email server while secretary of state.
