I think we need to get used to these attacks, they are going to come out about every one of Trump’s cabinet and every member of his family.

We need to stop worrying and reacting. The liberals, the democrats and the media are in the process of going bat**** crazy. It will get worse before it ends.

Pence statement:

Pence's office in Washington said in a written statement Thursday: "Similar to previous governors, during his time as Governor of Indiana, Mike Pence maintained a state email account and a personal email account. As Governor, Mr. Pence fully complied with Indiana law regarding email use and retention. Government emails involving his state and personal accounts are being archived by the state consistent with Indiana law, and are being managed according to Indiana’s Access to Public Records Act.”

From that statement, I presume that it is FAKE NEWS?

That’s true, but that’s the only attack line I can think of. Watching the MSM during and after the campaign, very little attention has been paid to Pence.

It is possible some personal e mails to known government officials could have been there, and rightly so, if no government classified info was included.

More righteous indignation by team Obama.

If they had any clue what they were doing, they would not do that. These guys are as dumb as Haman, who unwittingly constructed his own gallows.

Purim x 1000.

50 states, 50 cubits. Blueprint:

Esther 6.13. And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him; Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife to him, If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of the seed of the Jews, you shall not prevail against him, but shall surely fall before him:

Mordecai, the guy who 'disrespected' that arrogant, insignificant Haman.

Too bad Twitter wasn't around back then.

That is how a response should be done. Short and to the point.

They are trying to compare him to Hillary regarding classified info and put him on her level (they refer to the point that he was hacked at one point). This is a leap because the sort of material she handled was much more classified than what he handled and it's apparently legal to have a private account as governor as long as the info is turned over. That brings me to the second point they are trying to make. They are saying that he didn't turn everything over.

Indiana Public Access Counselor Luke Britt, who was appointed by Pence in 2013, said he advises state officials to copy or forward their emails involving state business to their government accounts to ensure the record is preserved on state servers.

But there is no indication that Pence took any such steps to preserve his AOL emails until he was leaving the governor's office.

I am not surprised. They need to remove the VP before they can move on to Pres. Trump. That is how the silent coup works.

If the deep state could, McCain/Graham would be in charge tomorrow. Yes, the thought both terrifies and sickens me. We’d be at war in a multitude of countries.

In news on Obama, Valerie Jarrett moved into his house.

Or find a true patriot, someone incorruptible, someone who's never been hacked. HILLARY!

Wait...

Inviting someone to meet for coffee, or asking the cleaning service for fresh towels could be considered official State business.

Whoopi, big deal.

I don’t know. It’s probably true to an extent. Sometimes, you need to move some data from point A to point B and the government system makes it a pain in the ass, so you fire up your GMail and just send it that way. Everyone I know has done stuff like that. Is it of that nature? Or is it as unbelievably egregious as Hillary Clinton’s private server? Or is it somewhere between?
