Not a smidgen.

Guess who had yet another secret, personal, email account. Nope, it's not Hillary - it's Lois Lerner.



To date, we've been aware of two email accounts used by disgraced IRS official Lois Lerner. The first was her official government account and the second was a personal home account. Both have produced materials salient to the ongoing investigation into the IRS targeting of conservative groups....And they're about to be joined by yet another address.

According to IRS attorney Geoffrey J, Klimas, Lerner a third email account has been uncovered from which Lerner was conducting official IRS business. As the Washington Times reports:
The admission came in an open-records lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch, a conservative public interest law firm that has sued to get a look at emails Ms. Lerner sent during the targeting. IRS lawyer Geoffrey J. Klimas told the court that as the agency was putting together a set of documents to turn over to Judicial Watch, it realized Ms. Lerner had used yet another email account, in addition to her official one and another personal one already known to the agency.
So, what was the name on this account? Obviously you'd think - since this administration is nothing if not completely above board - that it would be something simple like "Lois" or "Ms. Lerner." You'd be wrong. Get used to hearing the name "Toby Miles."
“In addition to emails to or from an email account denominated ‘Lois G. Lerner‘ or ‘Lois Home,’ some emails responsive to Judicial Watch’s request may have been sent to or received from a personal email account denominated ‘Toby Miles,’” Mr. Klimas told Judge Emmet G. Sullivan, who is hearing the case. It is unclear who Toby Miles is, but Mr. Klimas said the IRS has concluded that was “a personal email account used by Lerner.”
Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton is outraged, saying “It is simply astonishing that years after this scandal erupted we are learning about an account Lois Lerner used that evidently hadn’t been searched.” Except, no. It's not. It's not surprising in the least. In fact Lerner's newest set of secret emails probably won't even make waves anywhere outside of the conservative watchdog community. That's because, after years of almost-daily revelations regarding secret emails, private servers, wiped accounts, failed hard drives, lost tapes, and destroyed devices, the American people are completely inured to it. This is standard operating procedure for the "most transparent administration in history" and no one should expect anything better until after the 2016 election. Honestly, we should probably assume there are more of these revelations to come. Given the Obama camp's flagrant disregard for rules and laws, we'd be more surprised if there aren't a slew of secret accounts waiting in the wings.
