SO, BASICALLY, THIS SORT OF THING IS BUSINESS AS USUAL: Yet Another Email Scandal? … This Time at Department of Homeland Security. “According to press reports, Johnson and 28 other top Homeland Security officials sought and were granted waivers to use the personal email accounts for the past year, despite the practice having been banned in April 2014. Included among those senior Homeland Security officials using the private email accounts on government-owned computers were Deputy Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Chief of Staff Christian Marrone and General Counsel Stevan Bunnell. . . . The waivers granted to Johnson and 28 other senior staffers were in direct violation of Homeland Security’s Sensitive Systems Policy Directive 4300A, promulgated on April 30, 2014. The directive was issued after hackers breached the Office of Personnel Management computer system.”
