Wait, what? The 4 paragraphs you quoted seem to directly answer your question about how Powell and HRC acted differently ("Clinton never had such a desktop or a classified email account, according to the State Department.")
Also, even if we now find out that Powell acted as poorly as HRC, that doesn't excuse either of them at all. It just means that they're both guilty, not that Hillary should get off the hook because previous Secretaries of State did it too.
- davesque 11y agoSo that's all we have that makes what Powell did okay? Either he or the WP is simply assuring us that he never sent any important emails through his private email account (which he liked to log into from random computers)? Furthermore, isn't the point here that, apparently (if the stories of Powell and Clinton are any indication), the government doesn't really try that hard to secure the communications of its cabinet members? The way I had imagined it is that, as soon as these people take office, they're given the best crypto tech in the world. They're not told to take a hike because only the POTUS gets the good stuff. What kind of sense does that make?
