House Oversight chairman demands private emails from Trump officials
MSN News ^ | 7/1/2019 | Kyle Cheney

A top House Democrat demanded Monday that the White House turn over all communications sent by senior officials using private email and messaging services — including encrypted apps — by next week, citing a blanket refusal by the Trump administration to comply with earlier requests.

House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings said his request, with a July 10 deadline, marks the start of a new review of the private email practices of Trump administration officials that appear to violate federal record-keeping laws.

The Maryland Democrat noted that he had made narrower requests for information months ago, such as details about Jared Kushner's contacts with foreign officials via text and "apparent violations" by "Ivanka Trump, Steve Bannon and K.T. McFarland."

In addition to seeking the messages themselves, Cummings is asking for any messages sent by White House employees that reveal concerns that the messages of their colleagues might contain classified information and all documents that contain evidence of misuse of communications systems by White House personnel.

How about going after Crooked Hillarys emails that were full of classified info that landed on Weiners laptop, Trump’s lawyers should tell them to go to hell.

The WH should tell Cummings that he’ll get the emails right after Hillary turns over the 33,000 subpoenaed emails that she destroyed.

Isn’t it amazing how these scumrats act all concerned about obstruction yet they had no issue putting into the White house a woman who shredded 33,000 emails, smashed up cellphones and hid a server.

Meh, the Hussein Head #neverTrump FReak domestic enemies would have already sent them over long ago, wanting to do “their part” against America and all for which we stand.

Besides, FraudCo already illegally ‘tapped the data long ago anyway.

just another illegal request/demand for grandstanding purposes

the funny thing is,
these commie/nazi/leftists have already got their small core “voting base” nailed down tight

and this kind of antics only alienate most American voters

who either see these antics for the disruptive stunts they are... or else AT LEAST want Congress to do its job instead of all this foolishness

if only the R party would run some credible candidates.... and actually campaign ..... (!)..... they could pick up some seats in some very surprising cities, methinks

For what purpose? Hillary violated every rule in the book and you did nothing, so why would these emails be any different. It’s a monumental waste of time and our tax dollars. Get back to work, you laggards!
