“They want to do everything off-channel, away from the public’s eye, and it makes you wonder what are they hiding.” - Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen on Trump officials

In a Thursday letter to the White House, the Maryland Democrat alleged that Jared Kushner, who is also a senior White House adviser, had been using WhatsApp, a popular messaging application, to"communicate with foreign leaders" -- something he said that Kushner's attorney had confirmed in a private meeting. He also contended that Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, also a senior adviser, may be in violation of the Presidential Records Act by her use of private emails.

Lowell responded Thursday to Cummings' letter, which he said is"not completely accurate about what was said." Lowell said that he"never" said at their December meeting that Kushner's communications on WhatsApp were with foreign"leaders" or"officials.""I did not specify who they were," Lowell said."For example, he has numerous friends and contacts abroad.

1. Why is this a surprise to anyone? 2. They actually work?

Lock them up

REP ELIJAH CUMMINGS WE DON'T KNOW WAT U GOT BUT WE ALL KNOW WAT HLLIARY 'CROOKED' CLINTON HAS DONE Y R U NOT PROSECUTING HER IT'S ABOUT TIME

They are clearly above the law.

LOCK THEM UP!! Crooked trump family!! GET THE HELL OUT OF OUR WH...

More BS

Old news.... they were cleared on this....got any other gotcha memos...CNN?

LOCK THEM UP LOCK THEM UP LOCK THEM UP

Rather vague. Did they text meeting times?

Killary made that okay. Right?

NepotismSucks

Give them the same punishment that Hillary received. Just kidding fine or fire them .

You guys are not allowed to pretend this bothers you. Not at least until you pursue Hillary and her email debacle where they wiped servers clean, allowed confidential breaches. Period full stop. We literally see right through your hypocrisy. You are chipping away at our country

But Hillary....

Didn’t Hillary prove this wasn’t a crime?

Typical Dems defend HRC and want Trumps locked up.

Yes HRC & determined it’s perfectly acceptable and presents no danger to America.

Oh, like Hillary Clinton did!

it might not be so glaring if they hadn't campaigned on that pesky HillaryClinton email thing. karma

I hope they weren't conducting government business on private servers in their personal homes because that would be really bad......Wait 🤔

OMG! For real!

Unlike Hillary's, all the emails are there. Committee are free to look at them.

But the servers....

Sounds like HRC.

Trump uses his personal twitter account for work

I don’t understand when Hilary and the Obama administration did this it was swept under the rug but now that you think the Trump administration is doing it ... it’s news worthy! Shouldn’t we be looking at her acts of using personal emails before we look at anyone else?

The president is an unindicted co-conspirator to treason and nothing has happened. Literally, nothing. He sits in the oval office with the nuclear codes. I doubt whatsapp messages from treason barbie and the wooden boy will even raise an eyebrow.

Nobody can trust the present Committee!

You mean like HillaryClinton did? Damn, if it wasn't for double standards, would have no standards...

but are they going to do anything about it?

Let's just call it 'Extremely Careless'and that will it all ok.....Worked for Hillary.

But where is the evidence? Fake you

Well hopefully Russia can find all those personal messages, because you know they were tapped in. TrumpsGottaGo

According to Trump's rules then, they must be jailed.

Reminder.

Lock Them Up.

More 'outrageous' 'allegations' from the 'left'! With there 'ridiculous' Russia' 'embarrassment' showing the true colors of a party that has 'lost' all 'credibility' they move to the 'next' narrative!

Oooh, better waste time & money on hearings and getting zero done for the country. Perhaps a special Counsel for a year or 2 and a couple of dozen million dollars up in smoke. YOUR A SICK GROUP AND IT'S GONNA BITE YOU IN THE ASS.

🤮🤮Ivanka, daughter is a moron and compulsive liar, and Jarrad so if a felon must be taken before the law ... these two are much smarter than trump and will be UP to there teeth incorrupt activity! They are dangerous .. just look who they have been dining with !

Cnn had no problem when the LOSER Hilary used private email, why?

So it's safe to assume they'll get the same slap on the wrist HRC got, right? After all, we are a fair & unbiased people
