The ‘Wait, What?!’ of the Week



During Hillary Clinton’s press conference the other day, which supposedly addressed her, um, odd arrangement of conducting all Secretary of State business using a personal email account, she made this statement: “Well, the system we used was set up for President Clinton’s office. And it had numerous safeguards. It was on property guarded by the Secret Service. And there were no security breaches.”

Wait. What?! Because her house was guarded by Secret Service agents, that means there were no email “security breaches”? Does she have any idea how computer hackers operate? Does she really think an email security breach would involve Uzi-toting commandos who overpower the guards, break into the house, and steal something?

Here’s a list of who quite likely will never see a complete set of all her emails: the State Department, Trey Gowdy, F.B.I. investigators, the media, and the American people.

Now here’s a list of who quite likely already has a complete set of all her emails: the Chinese government, the Russian government, the Iranian government, the N.S.A., and a 23-year-old employee of the I.T. firm that originally set up the server and who secretly installed a digital back door, thru which he uploaded everything to a cloud server (including her yoga routines. Eeek!).
