Nah, no problem here. Everyone knows private email accounts are secure and no foreign or domestic players could exploit national security information.
/s
Hillary Clinton and her apologists give new meaning to the words, “incredible idiot”.
Once again Hillary knows more than any other person alive, when it comes to what should and shouldn’t be done as a (department head) Secretary to the President of the United States.
Anyone else would have already lost their job and be facing charges for what Hillary did.
A private server at a private residence with a sitting Secretary to the President of the United States and all her government email on it, is not kid stuff.
We may never know how much her exploited information compromised our nation’s national security.
It may have contributed to things that went wrong under her, Benghazi et al.
Foreign governments and operatives likely knew of this long before the public did. It’s their job to exploit such things.
I agree that the Clinton’s scandals were also very important, and that nothing ever happened. Chinese spies at the top levels of the Clinton administration would be just one of them.
Questions
Wouldn’t a .gov email server BLOCK emails that came from an outside domain, at least until someone manually overrode their standard protocols?
If they didn’t they would have to deal with tons and tons of spam mail.
I know many mail servers simply won’t accept emails from an unknown domain.
If this is true than someone at State AND the White House would have had to AUTHORIZE THE USE of a Clintons private domain !!!!!!
as in obama?
who now admits he emailed her but was “unaware” of the nature of her server
uh huh
that address didn’t end in .gov did it barry?
remember who Bill appointed to head the CIA?
John Deutsch
Who took home classified information on his personal laptop on which his kid played games
remember the investigation of that breach? err, whut? Deutsch was pardoned by Clinton on Clinton’s last day in office? ya don’t say!
and then there was Sandy Berger and his socks sneaking classified docs out of the files...tsk tsk tsk
She really cannot scrub her emails because she doesn’t know what Trey Gowdy or others already have copies of. Wouldn’t it be interesting if in the ruins of the Benghazi consulate, amongst all those papers strewn about, were emails from Clinton to Ambassador Stevens?
my my what a lovely couple the Appear....to be...to some..... knuckleheads..
Hillary would know if the Gowdy committee had damning evidence because of the Democrats on it. Think ‘Law and Order’ with defense attorneys present at every conversation and action.
Nope. Those parties would be any to whom Hillary sent email, whether personal or business, legal or illegal.
That's the problem with email — it works by sending messages to lots of different computers. And Hillary had root access to only one of those computers.
“Questions”
Non gov emails could be blocked but they don’t. They do use spam blockers, but that usually results in items being sent to a “junk” folder, which can still be accessed.
What is typically done is blocking access FROM the government system TO an email server itself (which is not the same as preventing mail from being sent to a non gov address).
E.g., if you have a gov laptop, it will block you from logging into your Yahoo mail account. This is because they don’t want the government network exposed over that connection. Simply sending an email doesn’t do that so there is no problem in just sending / receiving mail from private systems (though you still have to worry about viruses and hostile links so they tell you to delete unrecognized senders).
Incidentally, this is why Hillary would need two devices to use private and gov email. I’ve heard folks in the news talking about how easy it is to access two different email accounts from one device, but they are obviously unaware of the gov restriction on that.
Non gov emails could be blocked but they don’t. They do use spam blockers, but that usually results in items being sent to a “junk” folder, which can still be accessed.
So, shortly after taking office it is very likely that Hillary had to follow-up her e-mails to .gov, including ones to 0bama, with a phone call saying “I sent you an email?,,, Check your spam folder”
“Check your spam folder”
You can set your spam blocker to block emails from domains or individual senders if you want, but they generally block based on keywords like “viagra” in the subject line or in the content.
It is not at all unusual for non-government domains to be allowed to send email through the firewall and to individuals/departments within the Government community. All those emails are retained and archived.
A spam filter is by context and/or domain. The filter looks for a certain set of words based on a rule set and classifies the email as good or spam. Some domains are restricted so no emails from that domain (such as the .XXX domain) are allowed through. Simple thing to set up a filter rule to allow Clinton emails through and this is a policy executed by relatively low ranking administrators.

I understand.
So, am I to believe that the newly created, clintonemail.com domain never hit 0bama’s spam folder?
And required ACTION on the part of the recipient?
Nevermind the dozens of other Government employees?
I think I’ll register a dozen or so variations of what 0bama’s private domain will likely be when he leaves office.
You can’t register cuss words as a domain. They have all already been taken. That most likely eliminates a lot of Obama potential.
