Congress is putting our nation at risk
I listened to the hearing with FBI Director Comey, and I heard from Republican after Republican how reckless and careless Hillary was, how she could have put our country in danger. Maybe she did not break the law, but she can't be trusted. She's incompetent, she's a threat.
But, I also heard that Congress itself is not subject to stringent security. Congresspeople themselves can use private email accounts (the head of the committee includes his private email on his business card), multiple phones, unsecured servers, and so on. Congresspeople have security clearance, too, and could easily send confidential documents in unsecured ways. Shouldn't we be concerned?
For the sake of the survival of our nation, it's imperative that the government investigate all the private email accounts of our Congresspeople to determine if they sent classified information over an unsecured network. True, like Hillary, none of them would prosecuted if they did so, but wouldn't the American people feel safer knowing that Congresspeople have never done what Hillary did?
If the American people are really concerned about this email issue, we should demand that Congress look into its own practices and verify whether any confidential or classified documents or discussions took place on their private or nonsecure email accounts.
