Pence Has His Own E-Mail Problem



While he was campaigning with his ticket-mate, sociopathic con artist Donald "Rump" Trump, Vice President Mike "Dense" Pence was hiding some information about his conduct as Indiana's governor: that he was using his personal e-mail server to conduct state business, including sensitive homeland security materials:
"...Pence communicated via his personal AOL account with top advisers on topics ranging from security gates at the governor’s residence to the state’s response to terror attacks across the globe. In one email, Pence’s top state homeland security adviser relayed an update from the FBI regarding the arrests of several men on federal terror-related charges....Cyber-security experts say the emails raise concerns about whether such sensitive information was adequately protected from hackers, given that personal accounts like Pence's are typically less secure than government email accounts. In fact, Pence's personal account was hacked last summer." (emphasis added)
This leads one to wonder what (if anything) was going through Dense's head as he heard the angry chants of "lock her up" from the rubes at the Rump rallies aimed at Secretary Clinton's nothingburger e-mail story (probably something like, "Hmmm, did I send that money to the Nigerian princess yet?").

Once again, Rethuglican hypocrisy and deceitfulness apparently has no boundaries.
