Yep, that about sums it up.A classified email is sent to a secure server at C.I.A. Headquarters in Langley Virginia.
That classified email if forwarded to a classified server at the State Department at Foggy Bottom.
No way can classified information, including email be transferred and/or transmitted to a non-secure private server. Which is what the RePugs are trying to say.
Sufficient safeguards exist to prevent heretofore classified information (including emails) on a secure server(s) to be passed/transmitted to non-secure off-site private server(s).
The use of off-site non-secure server(s) by Republican Aides/Advisers/Cabinet Officials is a documented fact from the previous the Republican Administration (2001 - 2009).
At no time did Republican Congressman or Republican Senators question the use of private server(s) by Republican Aides/Advisers/Cabinet Officials during the previous Republican Administration (2001 - 2009).
At no time did Republican Congressman or Republican Senators demand the resignation of Senior White House Adviser Karl Rove after it became known that over 5,000,000 emails on his private server(s) (Either donated or under the control of the Republican National Committee) had been illegally deleted. Federal Law requires White House Communications to held at the White House, on Government Servers.
At no time did Republican Congressman or Republican Senators demand the resignation of former National Security Adviser/Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice after it became a matter of public record that Ms. Rice had used an off-site, non-secure private server for her Government Emails/Correspondence.
No legal action taken against either Karl Rove or Condoleezza Rice.
No Congressional Hearing were held regarding the use of private server(s) by Karl Rove or Condoleezza Rice.
The history of the use by Government Officials is a matter of public record.
But it is only against the law when a Democrat does it.
