Hillary Clinton uses unsecured email to ask aide to grab her unsecured, unapproved iPad

It’s the last day of the month, and that means another dump of State Department emails, leaving reporters scrambling through stacks of often heavily (and occasionally completely) redacted correspondence.

This Clinton email probably the most important: pic.twitter.com/Oh77axHdwL

Expect a lot of attention to be paid to Hillary Clinton’s iPad this time around. As Twitchy noted, Judicial Watch reported that the State Department rejected for security reasons Clinton’s repeated requests to carry an iPad. However, an email from a previous dump showed that Clinton called it “exciting news” when she was informed her new iPad (the “hPad”) had arrived. So much for Clinton’s claim that she only carried one device out of convenience.

Further complicating matters is an interview this week with CNN’s Jake Tapper during which Clinton campaign senior adviser and spokeswoman Karen Finney explained that Clinton did not have her iPad when she set up her private email server, and that she wasn’t using her iPad for email.

Karen Finney's interview on CNN trying to defend Hillary was a flailing mess. Hillary's not a liar cuz she got an iPad for Christmas? What?

As a Christmas present? In June? Not according to the emails released.

Was it at least locked in a desk drawer? If it was, why wouldn’t we be surprised if a follow-up email revealed where the key to the desk was hidden and maybe the alarm code to the house as well? Also disturbing is the number of “Did you receive this?” “Get this?” and “Did u mean to send to me?” emails we’ve seen, in both this and previous email dumps.

Looks like others wanted their own iPads too.
