But her emails?

[Crepitus]

Or in this case, his.

Apparently trump and his transition team are running on only on private devices in spite of the fact that the US has literally spent generations perfecting the science of a presidential transition.

Something to hide? You've gotta wonder.

Politico reported, however, that the Republican president-elect and his team are “overseeing a fully privatized” operation, which is relying on “private servers, laptops and cell phones instead of government-issued devices.”

Federal officials say they’re worried about sharing documents via email with Donald Trump’s transition team because the incoming officials are eschewing government devices, email addresses and cybersecurity support, raising fears that they could potentially expose sensitive government data. The private emails have agency employees considering insisting on in-person meetings and document exchanges that they otherwise would have conducted electronically, according to two federal officials granted anonymity to discuss a sensitive situation. Their anxiety is particularly high in light of recent hacking attempts from China and Iran that targeted Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance and other top officials.

I don't blame them. They're afraid enemies in the three-letter agencies will spy on them.

When you consider the fact that the Obama DOJ illegally spied on the Trump campaign,
I'm not surprised that they're concerned about illegal spying by the Biden DOJ.

 

[airplanemechanic]

Yep, Trump learned from the first time, fuck all the 3 letter law enforcement agencies. Do everything privately and securely.

Have you forgotten who they work for? Or do you simply not care?

Why are you assuming that just because it's private that it's secure?

 

[airplanemechanic]

Why are you assuming that just because it's private that it's secure?

Why are you assuming that it's not? Not everyone is like Hillary, running private classified gov't emails on unsecure servers hacked by the Russians.

 

[1srelluc]

It must work so Godspeed.

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Why are you assuming that it's not? [snipped]

Well number one, because Trump is involved.

But more importantly, we shouldn't have to guess whether it's secure or not and they certainly should not simply accept Trump's et al word that it is.

They're violating policy so everything else that comes thereafter is suspect. Whether they like it or not, the people of the United States have the right to know what our elected representatives are doing in our name with only a few designated exceptions.

Oh wait, your employer has the right to monitor your activities while on their equipment because it's only supposed to be used for work. So by eschewing government issued electronic devices and going BYOD are they maybe thinking they can get around the normal monitoring that is allowed?

Why would they need to use government servers and email?

They aren’t doing anything with classified information.

It’s all….private.

 

[Rawley]

Have you forgotten who they work for?

President elect Trump. When/if they become gvt employees, we can talk.

Psst. None of them are gvt employees yet.

 

[Missourian]

They did spy on Trump's transition in 2016.

US intelligence agencies ‘spied’ on Trump 2016 campaign, says attorney general

He later clarified that he believes the spying was 'unauthorised surveillance'

Fool me once, shame of you...fool me twice, shame on me.

Yea, that never happened.

Use yer head for something besides holding up that stupid red hat for once.

Of course there is sensitive info in a transition

It's really too bad the Democrats have proven to be such dishonest traitors to our nation. Trump can't be too careful

But you accepted Hillarys word that her server was secure, without question, amirite?

I don't remember any reports that Trumps servers were hacked, but I do know the gov't spied on him. Perhaps he remembers this and doesn't want it to happen again?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

President elect Trump. When/if they become gvt employees, we can talk.

And what exactly is the "transition team"?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Psst. None of them are gvt employees yet.

I stand corrected, this is private information, since they are not [yet] government employees.

No, you're wrong, I have always complained about Clinton pretending that she didn't know better than to have some of her emails on a private server if for no other reason than it would put those communications outside of the reach of the "custodian of records" when presented with a subpoena duces tecum or FOIA request (Freedom of Information Act).

But let's talk about why you would automatically ASSUME that I had no problem with someone causing certain emails to not be found during a search for them if they were somewhere they were not supposed to be?

And why are you all so concerned all of a sudden about the FBI surveilling certain people's emails (Trump) but no concern about when they do it to ordinary citizens? We're presuming IF they were surveilling him they did so with a search warrant right?
