She used email addresses linked to her family domain.
The Washington Post reported Monday evening that many of those emails, which went to White House aides, federal officials and Ivanka’s assistants, were “in violation of federal records rules” and linked to a private domain — “ijkfamily.com” — that she shared with her husband, Jared Kushner.

No. So?

Using stupid nicknames makes one look stupid. As it turns out, Trump's base digs stupid. I don't think his opponents should aim for stupid. That market has been cornered.

I think there is something to this. IMV, most people aren't stupid. But most people ARE lazy. And not just when it comes to physical activity. Most people are lazy thinkers. They jump to conclusions, listen only to the first argument. Or the one that fits their preconceived ideas. What's comfortable and requires the least amount of change or difficulty.

Trump appeals to simple. Because he is simple. He's the laziest President since I don't know when. Maybe Hoover or Wilson after his stroke.

Lawsuit against Trump family charity can proceed, judge rules

Court rejects arguments of presidential immunity in case claiming charity was a campaign ‘piggy bank’

...“As we detailed in our petition earlier this year, the Trump Foundation functioned as little more than a checkbook to serve Mr Trump’s business and political interests,” she said.

“There are rules that govern private foundations – and we intend to enforce them, no matter who runs the foundation. We welcome Justice Scarpulla’s decision, which allows our suit to move forward.”

My betting is Ivanka never had any clue where the server was physically located nor its security status. She just used the email service.

The other option is that she knew exactly what server she was using. In a book she wrote about a decade ago there's a passage about being very careful about what you write in emails because they're a permanent record of what you've said. This is less of a problem if you're using a server that you own.

He didn't literally thank Saudi Arabia, did he?
 
Judge allows lawsuit against Trump Foundation to proceed, rejects Trump claim that he can't be sued

New York State Attorney General Barbara Underwood filed the action against the president, Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump earlier this year, charging that they had engaged in "extensive unlawful political coordination with the Trump presidential campaign, repeated and willful self-dealing transactions to benefit Mr. Trump's personal and business interests, and violations of basic legal obligations for nonprofit foundations."

A lawyer for the Trump Foundation fired back in August, arguing in court filings that Trump can't be sued while he's in office. He also contended the lawsuit should be thrown out because the family didn't knowingly do anything wrong, and argued the suit was only brought because of political bias.

In a 27-page ruling Friday, state Supreme Court Justice Saliann Scarpulla rejected those arguments. She noted that a judge in a different case had already ruled earlier this year that Trump is not immune to civil actions "related purely to unofficial conduct because he is President of the the United States."

She also found that contrary to the foundation's argument, the attorney general's suit had made allegations of wrongdoing that were strong enough to let the case go forward.

I think Trump might regret that juvenile off color pun on the new Charman's name./

I sort of like "Benedict Donald" as a nickname for Trumpy myself.
