Judge rejects Emanuel assertion that emails are exempt from disclosure

05/31/16

A Cook County judge ruled in favor of the Chicago Tribune on Tuesday by declaring that Mayor Rahm Emanuel's emails, texts and other communications are not exempt from disclosure simply because they are transmitted over private devices.

The judge denied Emanuel's motion to dismiss the Tribune's lawsuit, which alleges the mayor violated the state's open records laws by refusing to release private emails and text messages about city business.

The Tribune asked a judge to order the mayor's office to comply with a state Freedom of Information request and produce the documents. The lawsuit, filed in September, also seeks to have Emanuel declared in violation of the Illinois Local Records Act if he failed to preserve emails and texts he sent or received relating to city business.

The ruling comes down as the issue of personal email use by government officials remains at the forefront of the presidential campaign. Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has continued to face questions about her use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state. Last week, the State Department's inspector general found Clinton broke department rules when she used private email for government business, concluding she created a security risk and violated transparency and disclosure policies.

You can draw a straight line from this Clinton acolyte's position to Hillary's view about her own email accounts.

We have a choice between Trump and a person who might be indicted while in office.

He just wants the same treatment as Scott Walker. And Dubya.
