He may know it. Lois thinks she’s super smart by playing super-dumb (who, lil’ ol’ me and that big nasty computer thing?) but there’s no way she can hide all that correspondence forever.
Also, I believe government employees are not supposed to conduct official business on their personal laptops or phones, and she happened to mention that she was using her Blackberry for this.
And on top of it, wasn’t she the one using an alias to communicate? A man’s name, to throw people off? If it wasn’t Lois, it was some other higher up. In any case, there’s nothing innocent about that, and I’m sure there have been investigators poring over that too.
I believe you are remembering the EPA chief, and I believe she was forced out and resigned.
I remember the case of the woman using a false name email to conduct secret government business, and I think she was with the EPA, but I would not doubt that Lerner did something similar.
Lerner did use a personal computer, at least it seems that Gowdy knows so. In the second part of the hearing on Tuesday Gowdy questions O’Connor around 31:00 - 36:00. At the very end he asks O’Connor whether Lerner used a personal computer, and the “I know nuthin” liar mumbles some inanity. Gowdy shoots back: “She did.” At which point his 5 minutes were up.

Months ago I recall Gowdy saying that a good prosecutor will not ask a question for which he did not already know the correct answer. Gowdy shot that “She did!” at her to let her know that she is in deep trouble. I think they have proof that O’Connor is part of the cover up.
The black lawyer on Megan Kelley said today they should set up a hotline because there are people who want to talk.
