156. I'm talking about emails sent to her from non-government servers...

... and set to her government account, which it would appear had been redirected to her private domain rather than spending time on a government server someplace where they could be archived. If it was simply a problem of government servers not working right, then she'd have even less to lose by making it an issue to get the government servers fixed so that she could use government infrastructure instead of private infrastructure the way a traditional Democrat would want our email to be handled.

She still has NOT provided us an adequate reason for her investing in a private email solution rather than just using the existing government infrastructure, when it shows no real LEGITIMATE value to do so, and only provides the right another avenue to attack her with. It was either a STUPID move on her part, or a one that has us question her motives. If she had a legitimate reason that the public could accept to do what she did, she should have told us she was doing it until a legitimate problem that provided her a legitimate reason for doing what she did got fixed.

I really don't see a reason for her doing this and being secretive about this.
