Will It Never End?

[Vice President Mike] Pence has been a strong critic of Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email sever when she was secretary of state. On NBC’s Meet the Press in September, Pence called her “the most dishonest candidate for president of the United States since Richard Nixon.”

“And with regard to classified information she [Clinton] either knew or should have known that she was placing classified information in a way [on a private server] that exposed it to being hacked and being made available in the public domain even to enemies of this country,” Pence said then.

During his term as Indiana governor, [...] Pence used a personal AOL account to communicate security-related issues. Though his account was once hacked, his office denies that the situation can be compared to that of Hillary Clinton.

[...]

The topics of the emails ranged from security gates at the governor’s residence to the state’s response to terrorist attacks across the globe, the report says. In one email dated January 8, 2016, he communicated with then-Chief of Staff Jim Atterholt, and his top public safety and homeland security adviser, John Hill, on an FBI arrest of suspected terrorists.

The AOL account was compromised in June last year, when a hacker sent emails to his contacts claiming that Pence and his wife had been stranded in the Philippines and needed money. Pence, in response, sent an email to people targeted by the scam, apologizing for any inconvenience and set up a new AOL account, the report said.
