Senior State Department officials at the U.S. Embassy in Japan have been caught sending “sensitive” information over personal email accounts, subjecting the information to potential hacking attacks and other cyber threats, according to a new report by the department’s inspector general.

Embassy staff, including the U.S. ambassador to Japan, were found to conducted “official business” via their personal email addresses, highlighting an issue of concern among national security experts and officials in the wake of disclosures about Hillary Clinton’s email habits during her tenure as secretary of state.

The use of personal email among Obama administration officials has raised concerns about the protection of sensitive data, which could be stolen by hackers and foreign governments.

IHMO the Obumbler Admin has been using private emails to bypass the public disclosure laws for the past 7+ YEARS. The 1960s Chicago mafia is now running the nation, and the STUPID party does NOTHING other than holding kabuki theater hearings. Shrillary and all other law breakers in this admin are never going to spend a night in jail and are thumbing their noses at us peons out in middle America. TIME FOR REVOLUTION.

uh oh.....scenario being set to send a few “worker bees” to prison and let Queen Bee Hillary off the hook.

[vpintheak]

Pathetic absolutely pathetic!

[Old Sarge]

Clintons don’t go to prison. Clintons pay others to go to prison for them.

[citizen]

These occurrences of sending data and messages via open platforms stress why prosecuting Hillary! is of such importance.
No one in the 0bama regime takes security seriously. Hillary! and all the other security scofflaws need to be seen doing hard time for their law-breaking.

HMM...isn’t the US ambassador to Japan Caroline Kennedy....?

[Gaffer]

Remember the Lewinsky affair and the “a BJ isn’t Sex” and all the other denigration of past Presidents as whore mongers to protect Clinton and say “they all did it?”

This is Hillary’s version of that.

To my mind, then all those other “officials” can join here on the docket. Doesn’t diminish what she did in any way.

Obfuscation and diversion.

[Logical me]

This current communists empire call the Federal Government is totally out of control. It no longer serves the people but themselves and greed. We need Trump who may have the guts and ability to sock the shi! out of the entire corrupt entity.

[MortMan]

Or to Ft. Marcy Park.

This just sounds like a bunch of teenagers and idiots are running the country. And yet, I know many teenagers that are a lot more responsible than the idiots in this administration.

No wonder everybody is laughing at the USA.

[PoloSec]

In this case there will most likely be firings and prosecutions real quick, although they may receive light discipline and chastisement if they are everyday democrat party members, the only ones who have total immunity are the premium members of the progressive liberal democrat communist party, like Hillary and her closest minions.

Remember all the movies showing the Japanese embassy in Washington, DC receiving the information that Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor?

They had the equipment to send, receive and translate classified information right at their embassy.

Do you think we might have the same sorts of equipment? Why wouldn’t we use it?

Traitors.

[surrey]

Uh,Uh,one and the same.

[Cementjungle]

See, everyone does it... that means it’s all OK.

[bert]

The queen in question here is Queen Caroline

[yoe]

The "everyone does it ploy"....holds up in court most of the time......however, there isn't a soap out there including lye soap that can clean crooked hillary clinton up. She still smells of crime and constant unethical behavior.

Hillary is done so take her out of the political oven, she's finished!

[Cheerio]

Do you know if this is real or a fake?

[Pecos]

Well before Hillary got all the attention for doing so, I remember an MSM TV article about members of the White House staff using personal email and conducting business in the park across from the White House as ways of keeping information away from FOIA requests.

A fish begins to rot from the head.

[halo66]

Real...
