Every single American should forward every single chatty personal or junk email we ever send or receive, to every single Congress and White House email box. If they insist on having access to our communication, let's send it to them DIRECTLY.

Flood the damned boxes with our discussions about Aunt Gertrude's hemorrhoids and that the puppy peed on the rug again. Forward to each of them every single spam email or solicitation we ever get.

At least until they start taking the Constitution and our privacy protections seriously again.
