Subject: Comer: Email Aliases Hide Wrongdoing
Well, it turns out that when James Comer, the chair of the republican-led House Oversight Committee, insisted that using email pseudonyms indicates an attempt to evade public records disclosure and hide wrongdoing, he was referring to himself.

As a senior Kentucky state official, Comer used pseudonyms for government business—including an industrial hemp pilot program involving Chinese seeds which later tested as illegal marijuana.

For instance, in a January 2014 message sent from one of two accounts named for Comer’s son, Harlan Comer, Comer told a KDA aide, “I’ll touch base with you today about Hemp. Some things have happened over night [sic] with respect to hemp so we may be growing it this year.”

That email came in response to an inquiry about Kentucky hemp regulations, including Chinese imports. Harlan Comer was then around seven years old. His father signed the email, “James Comer.”

Well, sure, most seven-year-olds are eager to understand the regulatory issues that apply to Chinese imports of hemp.

Gee, what kind of father hides behind his seven-year-old son?

A bad one.

This game has gotten too easy: as soon as Comer makes an accusation, start looking into his past and you will find he's done the exact same thing he said showed likely criminal behavior.
