There are no emails from Donald Trump though, because the current president of the United States does not use email.
Now if they would just take away his damn Twitter account. :tape2:

Hannity's involvement with Henssler Capital is shielded via his use of a shell company, SPMK II, based in Georgia.
The Sean Hannity Foundation is registered to the same address as SPMK II, 3735 Cherokee Street in Kennesaw, Georgia, which corresponds to Reeves' law firm.
The Fox News host began highlighting Bil Lako and Henssler to his 3.6 million Twitter followers in January of 2018, labeling Lako as the "Hannity Show tax expert". The elevation of Henssler on Hannity's Twitter and radio show continued throughout February, as the company was in the midst of a round of fundraising.
Days after Lako was featured on Hannity's radio show, Henssler filed a report with the FEC stating that they had raised $13 million from the time period stretching January 31-February 15. The identities of the investors remains confidential.
"With any money laundering, you're trying to make the illegally gotten money look legitimate," Quick said. "So in the simplest terms, if you have real estate, you're going to buy a piece of property with the illegal funds, hang on to it - or have rental income from it, so that rental income is legitimate - and eventually when you sell the real estate, you get your proceeds out of it and by all accounts it appears to be a legitimate transaction."
How do you buy the property in the first place without raising eyebrows? One way is to move the money for those properties into shell companies, Quick said.
"What they're hoping is that an investigator or someone who's digging around doesn't investigate or dig around into where that money came from for that" company, he said. Most real estate agents have a limited ability to look into the legitimacy of a corporate entity, which makes it easier for the person hoping to launder the money to get away with it. Even investigators can have a difficult time tracing money when it comes from countries such as Switzerland (where there are strict bank secrecy laws) or the Cayman Islands.
Money coming in from a foreign corporate entity, though, also can serve as a red flag to investigators. Another is someone who buys a property and then quickly sells it. Others are how the company is formed - Delaware corporations add a level of opacity, too - or who is listed as being involved in the business
President Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, plans to assert his Fifth Amendment rights in the lawsuit filed against him by adult film star Stormy Daniels.
"Based on the advice of counsel, I will assert my 5th amendment rights in connection with all proceeding in this case due to the ongoing criminal investigation by the FBI and U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York,” Cohen said in a court filing Wednesday.
“The mob takes the Fifth,” he said at an Iowa campaign rally in September. “If you're innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”
