An article in Human Events claims, Jackson has been clandestinely sending and receiving thousands of emails in making decisions and conducting business.  It has been reported “there are at least 12,000 recently discovered but as yet undisclosed emails…that has prompted two congressional inquiries and an inspector’s general (IG) investigation.”
