Ivanka Trump Used Personal Account For Emails About Government Business (washingtonpost.com)

The Washington Post is reporting that Ivanka Trump used a personal email account to send hundreds of emails last year to White House aids, Cabinet officials and her assistants. Many of the emails were "in violation of federal records rules," the report says. Ivanka's practices are reminiscent of the personal email account Hillary Clinton used as secretary of state. From the report: White House ethics officials learned of Trump's repeated use of personal email when reviewing emails gathered last fall by five Cabinet agencies to respond to a public records lawsuit. That review revealed that throughout much of 2017, she often discussed or relayed official White House business using a private email account with a domain that she shares with her husband, Jared Kushner. Some aides were startled by the volume of Ivanka Trump's personal emails -- and taken aback by her response when questioned about the practice. Trump said she was not familiar with some details of the rules, according to people with knowledge of her reaction. A spokesperson for Ivanka Trump's attorney and ethics counsel, Abbe Lowell, "acknowledged that the president's daughter occasionally used her private email before she was briefed on the rules, but he said none of her messages contained classified information," reports Washington Post.

"While transitioning into government, after she was given an official account but until the White House provided her the same guidance they had given others who started before she did, Ms. Trump sometimes used her personal account, almost always for logistics and scheduling concerning her family," he said in a statement. He went on to say that her email use was different than that of Clinton. "Ms. Trump did not create a private server in her house or office, no classified information was ever included, the account was never transferred at Trump Organization, and no emails were ever deleted," Mirijanian said.

OK, numb nuts, fuck off with this first lady shit. They going to call the first fucking husband married to the person who was actually elected, the first gentleman. Well, fuck off with this, Invanka was neither elected nor appointed to office, you elected the orange orangutan (as he well remain until the high level corrupt are investigated and prosecuted), she can get up on stage naked, give everyone the finger and tell them to go fuck themselves, neither elected nor appointed to office, pretty much free to do anything the law allows.

The whole concept of the first lady is entirely celebrity bullshit, fuck off with that stupid shit, it makes America, look like some primitive stupid monarchy knock off. It should be, Invaka Trump, who is that, ohh that silly bitch gold digger married to Don Don the orange orangutan, yeah, who gives a fuck what she does. Wake up to your fucking selves, when she stands for election and gets elected, then you give a crap about what Ivanaka Trump does, until then, you just cheekily ignore or mock and deride it, I mean who gives a fuck and you should fucking stop giving a fuck, Jebus what is wrong with you people ;D.

Last I checked, every senior government position is "voluntary". Any of then can resign at any time. Ivanka has still been acting in official capacities, even if she doesn't have an official title or office.
