I believe Jones Day is one firm that refused to work for President Trump.

“I would just be very, very cautious...you get things out of context, or they’ve been manipulated to make a particular political statement.”

Talking tough but you know she’s scared.

This is gonna be good.

Possible corruption in Chicago? Who could have possibly guessed that?

I’m not going to be commenting on specific e-mails, things that may be extrapolated out because we have no way of knowing whether or not those e-mails are in fact legitimate,” she said.

What a complete load of crap. These are emails supposedly sent between her and her staff, then forwarded to a law firm. So of course there is a way to determine whether or not they are legitimate - just check your own computers/servers to see if they were ever sent between you and your staff on the first place.

I absolutely agree, but “There’s no way for you to know whether or not these were my email” has been the go-to defence for years. Remember the DNC hack showing that media organizations were working with the DNC (but not the RNC) on how specific articles would be written, and how the Presidential debate host shared questions with Hillary (but not Trump)? You might remember that on Free Republic, but most media refused to cover it because there was no way to know whether their own email was legitimate.

Same thing happened with Hunter Biden’s email which included numerous press contacts. Some journalist would point out that there was no way to know whether or not it was even Hunter’s laptop only to be asked “Is this email found on the laptop legitimate”. They would refuse to answer.

The Lightfoot administration says reporting on the release of hacked e-mails makes everyone less safe and encourages hacking.

Unlike the release of violent felons early out of prison which of course does not make everyone less safe and does not encourage further criminal acts.

Emails with the exception of specific personnel and and pending real estate contracts are public information and in the purview of the public to examine them. Most in public “service” do not feel this is so and flagrantly abuse the public trust. See: Hillary Clinton.

Hacked, indeed! Somebody went into an unoccupied office with a thumb drive, and found some goodies.
