Mueller's office has already responded to Saturday's email kerfuffle. LOL. DT is screwed.
There's something -- maybe lots of somethings -- that DT's team was horrified to learn escaped with the emails. So they're arguing that Mueller improperly read them.
But according to Mueller's office's statement, there are only two choices: he got them through "appropriate criminal process" or he got the "account owner's consent."
(To be fair, GSA written policy appears to make the GSA the owner of all documents produced on its equipment, so that might have been how Mueller got hold of them so easily.)

Asked about Langhofer's letter and Loewentritt's statements — and after publication of this story — a spokesperson for the Special Counsel's Office, Peter Carr, told BuzzFeed News, “When we have obtained emails in the course of our ongoing criminal investigation, we have secured either the account owner’s consent or appropriate criminal process.”

d. Information ownership . All documents, images and messages composed, sent, received or stored on GSA - provided equipment remain the property of the GSA .
9. Monitoring . GSA IT continuously monitors use of GSA telecommunications . GSA may audit a user’s telecommunications usage at any time. The CIO P 2100.1I “G SA IT Security Policy ” states:
a. Obtaining access to GSA resources must constitute acknowledgment that monitoring activities may be conducted.
b. Users have no expectation of privacy on GSA IT systems. All activity on GSA IT systems is subject to monitoring.

Repubs always thrive on anger, but it is out of control now. WTF do they have to be angry about? As you said, they are separated from reality. Whether it is the blue collar Dem waiting for Trump to bring back obsolete technology (rather than provide retraining, as Hillary promised); the RW nationalist stoking fear and rage about a reality they themselves created; or the extreme wealthy crying about grave robbers taxing them in their graves.
well, like being themselves. They're astonishingly incompetent, too ignorant even to ask questions. I'm guessing any midlevel career staffer could have given them a heads-up on that one, also likely 50,000 or so government clerks. WHO owns data stored there is about as basic as it comes.
But then they also thought they had their own "fixer" inside for whatever. Turns out they should at least have replaced him when he went and died on them.
Bengahhhhzi!
