Deja DU: Evidence of Hatch Act violations on display on the Internet. What will happen next?

-----------------Excerpt from thread --------------------------
Here follows the no-brainer, obvious cases that first caught my attention, with the dot.gov e-mails

1. Visibility kick

2. Where there's smoke, there's usually fire.

But I might like a better description of the fire. The OP is a bit vague about what happened.

3. Use of .gov e-mail for partisan political purposes is illegal.
