If Omarosa and other WH staffers could waltz into the SitRoom with their personal phones, this might well be a far bigger security breach than Clinton's private server.

1. "might"???

[Miles Archer]

2. That's how he rolls, that's his "dry humor."

He's not asking a question or presenting a possibility.

He said "might" because it's pretty damned obvious that it's a security breach, and a major one.

DC doesn't use the "sarcasm smiley."

3. Gotcha

[malaise]

4. Never forget kakistocracies are also

incompetent

[Fred Sanders]

5. Not securing the phones is a lapse so astounding it has to be on purpose...Putin's doing?

And where is the fucking media that was all over Clinton's grill on the emails when this is incredibly on a different scale of concern???

[malaise]

6. They are out of their depth

Fugging morons

[Fred Sanders]

24. As an AA women is proving this very week! Corruption is finally on the lips of the mass media.

7. This is impeachable, all by itself. Seriously. But we lack a real congress to do anything about it.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

12. Yes. Base incompetence. Failing to carry out basic duties to protect the USA. Impeachable.

Perhaps done on purpose, which would make a high crime into treason and ESPIONAGE.

[Mr. Ected]

8. His base is only interested in expressing animus

They expressed it against Hillary. They'll now express it against Omarosa.

In the fall, NP will get a heavy dose of their animus. Hating makes them feel big. Starts at the top.

10. "In the fall, NP will get a heavy dose of their animus..."

They don't have to, she gets enough of it from her own side.

9. Did I read earlier that Kelley asked Omarosa to step into the Situation Room to have

a private conversation? If she was following his directions, and assuming he had authority to allow her to enter, then that episode falls into a security breach by Kelley.

Still, since everything now is assumed to be recorded by the WH, each individual, russians, israeli, etc. I think we should stop being amazed that some "private" information leaked.

Normally security/compliance groups within the government do a pretty good job of making sure there is no obvious problems. This ain't normal. It's like having your worst enemy telling you how best to counter their threats. Believe Me.

11. "Might very well be"??? Hillary's server was the only thing that WASN'T hacked FFS.

Corn, you are being far too kind to the Trumpkins.

[Pantagruel]

13. Speaking of HRC 's server

No one has ever explained how the NSA didn't know HRC was on a private server? If they knew, to me, that's tacit approval-so where was the foul? In fact, maybe a private server was in fact a security measure in itself?

[mythology]

22. So by that logic they must be okay with Trump having a personal phone on him all the time

[workinclasszero]

14. Yeah I want to hear Hannity and Limbaugh

screaming about this 24/7 for years until idiot Trump is investigated over this terrible breach of security!!!

Don’t worry shitstains of the right, Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi will start up the massive investigations of Dotards reign of error after the blue wave wipes out the GOP in the fall!!

[jmowreader]

15. In this White House, nothing is a security breach if Hillary didn't do it

Remember Kristian Saucier, the Navy submariner who was thrown in jail for taking classified photos of the inside of a submarine on his cell phone, destroyed his camera and computer to cover up his crime, and was pardoned by Scumbag-in-Chief John Donald Trump.

Question: Does sentencing John Donald Trump and everyone around him to be boiled in oil upon John Donald's conviction for being a total piece of shit constitute a violation of the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment, and can we do it anyway?

16. State.gov

The State Departments unsecured e-mail server was where all of those e-mails that ended up on Hillary server came from. state.gov has been proven to have been hacked and everything would have just been fine if she had used state.gov instead of her server when state.gov was actually not as secure.

[mythology]

21. That's not the way that works

That is like saying that I have a rock that prevents tiger attacks because I've never been attacked by a tiger.

[videohead5]

23. Neither state.gov or Hillary's server

Was set up for classified information. the State Department was not suppose to send Hillary classified information to her server. they had secure fax and other ways to send classified information. I never did understand why an investigation was not done into why the people at the State Department did not know what they were sending was classified? my guess is it was classified by different agencies but not by the State Department.

17. No one will step up.....

because if they do, we'll see the proof via Putey that Lindsay is a gay man (oh Nos!), that Nunes and Ryan have taken tons of Russian money, that Turtle and his family are up to their eyeballs in illegal foreign businesses, etc., etc., etc. They're ALL compromised.

18. security breach

I totally trust David Corn.

[Stuart G]

19. K and R...that might be the biggest fall out from all of this. Obvious lack of security..
