Yes, that was quite confounding. My speculation now is that Kim turned over the emails to WikiLeaks and is trying to inform congressmen of a legal way to acquire the emails. If the emails are in fact released by WikiLeaks (that's a big if), and anyone tries to call BS, the legally-acquired copies could ensure the authenticity of the leak. All of this is resting atop lots of speculation.
