LEGAL/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP FAMILY/JARED KUSHNER: “President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner has used a personal email account to correspond with colleagues in the White House, his attorney confirmed Sunday [9-24-17].
Mr. Kushner exchanged fewer than 100 emails from his personal account with White House colleagues, said Abbe Lowell, his lawyer. Mr. Kushner sent those that concerned official business to his email address at the White House, Mr. Lowell said.
Mr. Lowell issued a statement after Politico reported that Mr. Kushner had used the personal account, a revelation that quickly drew comparisons from Democrats to the criticism from Mr. Trump and his fellow Republicans of then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server to handle both official and personal business…
Messages sent to the account were ‘usually forwarded news articles or political commentary, and most often occurred when someone initiated the exchange by sending an email to his personal, rather than his White House, address,’ Mr. Lowell said. ‘All non-personal emails were forwarded to his official address and all have been preserved in any event.’..
The revelation of a private email account brought sharp criticism from Democrats and veterans of Mrs. Clinton’s campaign, who continue to be outraged that Mr. Trump and his campaign surrogates referred to Mrs. Clinton as a criminal over the investigation into her email use.”
