Yup. The director of the FBI said some of Hillary's people wouldn't get security clearance because of their involvement in her email transgressions. And it turns out he was right. Pretty much none of Hillary's people got security clearance, though not for the reasons that were laid out.
It's also notable that at that point in the thread the discussion was about her emails being a "thing". They were.
Now we've come full circle and it looks like Ivanka was in violation of some of those rules as well. We need to know what happened, and we have the FBI to figure it out.

So for clarity the President should not impede an investigation into Jared & Ivankas email practices?
What will you say if he does impede an investigation?

Obviously Trump sources are not reliable (e.g. nothing deleted, nothing classified) and no one else has had access to the emails, so that needs to be done before any reasonable conclusion can be made. Right now this is mostly front page stuff for sheer irony. I do think most likely it will end up in similar waters to Hillary. Given her position and interests, I find it unlikely the government business she was conducting through private email without following policy to report was itself any kind of material national security matter. And I think there is almost no chance that some classified info is not found in the emails, but probably not much of actual consequence. So that leaves us in something of a gray area. Illegal by the letter of the law if there is gross negligence. Of course, those are my projections. First step is investigation, and I will be highly upset if that is somehow impeded.

I think you and I are in near complete agreement. I find it very likely that she broke some laws, but that it is mostly minor, but feel that it should be investigated to find out for sure. If it turns out that some serious classified material was mishandled then that needs to be addressed. Mattering on the issue that might include removal of her security clearance or even felony charges, but I think it is most likely she will just be given a formal reprimand and told to use a government email. It is, after all, how any other federal employee would be treated.

What I think we differ in is how likely it is for this to be properly investigated in the first place. I don't think it is likely at all. The FBI is certainly not going to touch this, Trump would never allow that. The House might investigate it, but honestly they have bigger fish to fry and probably will not get around to it.

In addition to her emails, does anyone think she'a also using an unsecured phone daily in the WH like daddy? I'm sure the whole family is.

Our elected officials are all just terrible people getting rich who have no connection to the public good any more.
Their job seems to consist of hanging on to power at any cost, and spending money.
This is exactly why you SHOULD vote, to maybe get the useless ones out of power.

Are you trying to justify by using that?
I'm saying if you are having a discussion with an adult and you state the earth is flat and they say I disagree, you would be tempted to openly question their sanity, intelligence or just ask them "are you just being a jackass". That is what we have here from Trump supporters.

You would tolerate that from a 5 year old because they are 5. There isn't that kind of excuse for an adult.

Sure, as long as they lock up Hillary too.

How about a more moderate compromise - don't lock either of them up, but Trump supporters now spend equal time on demanding Ivanka be locked up as they did with Hillary. Seems fair, no?

Its one think to question, its another to throw anger at them. I'm sure I could go back and find something you have been horribly misinformed about. Still not a valid reason to get angry at you. Why should I take your ignorance personally?

My feeling on this is the same as when the Hillary email thing came to light. It warrants an investigation.

I'll try to be serious for a moment. I just dont understand how this happens, either Ivanka or Hillary. Didnt these people ever hear of remotely logging in to a secure network? Or would that still be considered "using your private e-mail"? I work for a university and handle no classified or even HIPPA sensitive data. I have a laptop with a secure VPN that I can use to log into my secured University account. Would seem trivial for any government official to do this.

From what I understand, a secured setup has no access to the internet or outside world.

Seems like the only rational response to this is perform a fair and honest investigation and see what comes to light. Treat Ivanka like you would treat any other official in a similar situation and go from there.

Can't ignore it but also can't turn it into a witch hunt either...

I don't.

The sooner he's impeached, the sooner he's indicted.

-Yeah I know. If you play their game, the terrorists win.

If Dems go down the same path that Pubs have gone and try to fight Trump with belicosity and shitheadedness, then the Trumpists win.

I don't care about the parties, I care about my country and preserving the institutions that help make it great.
