The most important point isnt the leak [View all]

Clearly the Trump White House is using weakly protected accounts to do government business. We would be all shocked if Russia and China hadn't hacked these communications already. Given Tulsi is hacking even needed,

But more than that. These accounts self delete after a set time. This gets around the official records act. Trump and Co. are leaving no paper trail (in America) to follow on purpose. Only our enemies will know what these fucks are really discussing behind closed doors.
