Senior White House staff have private email accounts

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Wed Jan 25, 2017 2:47 pm

Senior Trump administration staffers including Kellyanne Conway, Jared Kushner, Sean Spicer and Steve Bannon have active accounts on a Republican National Committee email system, Newsweek has learned.

The system (rnchq.org) is the same one the George W. Bush administration was accused of using to evade transparency rules after claiming to have “lost” 22 million emails.

There's a purpose for this: so they don't use their government email accounts for political work. Conversely, they mustn't use non-government emails for White House business. I'm sure they're aware of what could happen if they do.

I'm sure they do.
I'm pretty sure Vladimir sent them a note explaining the risks.
