If it’s true then she needs to be disciplined, charged, etc. Please do not label this as “extremely careless.” This is why you have government emails.

You are...CORRECT! For the record, I am ok with some punishment coming Hillary's way for this and for Colin Power and The Orange One for using a private cell phone, and anyone else breaking these security rules. Justice is blind and should remain so...Democrat, Republican, doesn't matter. Rules matter. The law matters.

Good for you for getting this right.

It’s actually “Colin Powell.”

Severity of the emails matter too. Meaning does it put the country in danger or is it just simple policy emails that have no direct threat. Either way I expect better. She does deserve due process.

Yeah. I don’t get the fascination some have with this guy. He seems like the Dem version of Trump.

Not sure what you see in him, Flagpole.

That's a triple-A question (well, technically not a question).

Asked And Answered

Flagpole, why do you continue to support Avenatti? Are you donating to his 2020 run still?

Just kidding, but you know it's a meme at this point to associate you with Avenatti. Good luck on your retirement fund today! Hope it's not in anything tech or semiconductor related.

She deserves as much "due process" as Trump offered Hillary. LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP!

Yep. I have no idea what happened there.

BREAKING! Oh, the tragedy!

Ivanka Trump used personal account for emails about government business

Meh. Big nothing burger.

You’d be surprised how many officials do this.

1) On its face, it's a nothing burger, but considering how the Trump campaign grilled Hillary like never before seen over this exact issue and without question Ivanka chanted "Lock Her Up!", it is either stupidity or arrogance to the nth degree. I think she's an idiot, so I go with stupidity.

2) The fact that many government officials do this is no excuse. They should make a standard punishment for this, and it should be pretty severe to put a stop to it.

HRC's crime was mostly sending classified info over non-secure email. If Ivanka and Jared did the same thing, then they should (but won't) get similar treatment.

But if it's just chit chat and non-serious stuff, then it's not a big deal.

And remember they caught Jared doing the same thing last year - no one cared.

Nothing will probably come of this. I actually hope the Democrats in the House don't make a big deal of this because there are many more important things for them to look at with regard to that whole grifter Trump family. In lieu of an investigation into Ivanka's e-mails, they should just announce they've determined that Ivanka is a Grade A Dumb@ss.

Do you think the D's should use Ivanka and Jared's email use as an investigative doorway to find other stuff?

100% sure that Ivanka and Jared committed crimes during the period and there will be evidence of that in their emails.

Funny how such a reasoned response was never applied to Hillary. Why do you think that is the case?

Meanwhile.......

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

They don't need an extra investigative doorway. The doors are all over the place. The D's should have no trouble getting whatever government documents they need, including emails. No false pretense needed.

Ivanka is not a cabinet secretary, and she is not running for the president. Apples and oranges.

eh I don't know. You need a good cause before you go requesting WH documents. There is a separation of powers issue, and a norms issue.

We don't want the next R controlled House asking for every document, unless there is cause.

Democrat “men” vote for women. That’s hilarious!!!!!!

You know who wears the pants in their relationships.

Hahahahahaha!!!!!!

Neither is Hillary. But Trumpers, like lemmings, still chant "Lock her up!"

I'm just saying there is plenty of cause already. We don't need to investigate emails in the hopes that we find other things.

As you know, I am a rule of law person, so if this violation is deemed severe enough that someone (The House) needs to investigate, then I am ok with that. I do NOT think though that they should do it just in the hopes of finding criminal activity. If Mueller has already asked for all e-mails from these two (or any others who have done this) and these were not included, then they need to be provided. IF, though, Mueller isn't suspecting that there might be criminal behavior in these e-mails, AND there isn't a process in place that would demand we know what is in those e-mails, then no. So, in short, if just fishing, no. If it's part of a legitimate concern, yes . And, before the Trumpers Trumpet, NO the Mueler investigation is not and never has been a fishing expedition.

Nah...not really. Ivanka shared government business on her private e-mail. Not allowed. AND, she did this after this issue was extremely heightened following the 2016 election. I always knew she was stupid. This proves that.

What say you about Trump continuing to use a private cell phone that he has been told can be listened in on and has been?

The whole Trump family is so criminal, so stupid, so entitled. They are the ipecac syrup of families.

Ivanka and Jared are both Senior Staff, the highest staff level, and have titles of Assistant to the President. That is the same title level as the Chief of Staff and all the WH cabinet. All WH staff members are bound by the Code of Ethics.
