some had an explanation for this absurd tweet and said that Spicer might be using Cloudhopper, a SMS-to-tweet service, suggesting that he might be sending this text to someone from his phone which appeared on Twitter by mistake. Some joked that it’s not even a week in the White House and President Donald Trump’s administration couldn’t keep themselves from committing “stupid mistakes”.
Donald Trump's senior White House staff including Kellyanne Conway, Jared Kushner, Sean Spicer and Steve Bannon all use a private RNC email server, according to a Newsweek report published Wednesday. This is the same RNC email server that mysteriously disappeared 22 million messages during George W Bush's administration and the one that US intelligence services believe was compromised by the Russians at the same time as the DNC's, earlier this year.
The George W Bush administration was actually sued in 2007 by the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) after 22 million such private emails never made it to the government and simply disappeared.
Of course, given how hard the Trump campaign hammered Clinton of her own use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State, this is not a good look.

The act of using the service in and of itself is not a crime, and is typically looked upon as a beneficial organizational tool so that staffers can separate emails related to government affairs from those of a personal nature.
As Newsweek points out, if the email accounts are being utilized for government work they would be subject to a law known as the “Disclosure Requirement For Official Business Conducted Using Electronic Messaging Accounts.”
It’s a long name, but the law basically states that any official information being exchanged on the private servers must be copied over or forwarded to the government within a period of 20 days. Failure to do so is a crime.

you are one of the deluded. Because you have never argued against anything or for anything that would make your character more dimensions than a party platform. Just saying.

They use the private server for EVERYTHING.
Interesting. Is it illegal?
Not technically. It is rnch.org The point is to separate one's official WH mail from Party mail.

Pot or multi pots, meet kettle.
I am sure the deluded will defend this. I expect it.

Their allowed to use a private server, just not transmit sensitive or classified data through it, unlike what's-her-face.
Trump’s staff is using a private email server, and that’s totally legal
