DHS IG briefs Jan. 6 Committee On Erased Secret Service Texts

25 comments

  1. Put Sen Whitehouse in the Whitehouse in 2024!

  2. You are going to see all the text that the SS have…
    "Ok guys, we're leaving the White House."
    "Ok guys, we're returning to the White House."
    "Great job Mr. President, Making America Great Again!"
    That's it, that's all the texts; nothing to see here!

  3. HERE'S WHAT WAS REALLY HAPPENING ON JANUARY 6TH:
    • Gas was $1.93 per gallon.
    • There was zero inflation.
    • Supply-chain was functioning well.
    • Economy was strongest in 50 yrs.
    • Border was controlled and secure.
    • Taliban wasn't armed with U.S. artillery,
    • Plenty of workers to fulfil labor needs.
    • Stock market was at record-highs.
    • 401K's had record-high values.
    • Interest rates were at record-lows.

  4. Likely content of the text messages: "force Pence to get in the car if you have to . . . we need to hold him in custody to prevent the boss from being ousted from the white house. There is a bonus in it for all of us if the coup succeeds!"

  5. Shouldn't this material have been backed up before erasing? Very suspicious.

  6. Just happened to only be the jan 5th and 6th messages ,the exact 2 days being asked for ,what a coincidence. Those messages are archived, they are property of the United States not the ss. People go to jail for deleting government property except hrc, her corrupt teem and djt. Djt records taken to his hotel had to be retrieved.

  7. They are lying when they tell you how many documents they turned over. E erything but what they don’t want to. What and why are they refusing,and covering up. Does secret service serve a political agenda? Does the DOJ?

  8. They don't text legal information, what about texts between agents enoo are Trump loyalists?

  9. If Biden wants his ratings to go up, and we cannot say 'regain trust' since he's been shielded and excused away for every corrupt dealing he's made. The only way the American people will begin to forgive and forget this fraudulent anti American regime is if Biden wake up and publicly call for this unconstitutional hearing and bullying of a former president to stop because it is a sham that only reflects childishly on the scared Democrat party. Or we could accept this route, make a list of those catch and release crooks who tore down portland at the Capitol in Oregon and put them through the same kangaroo court you put January 6 peaceful protesters through. The two events cannot be treated differently just because one was supposedly lobbying for the lefts causes, they weren't, those protesters were mixed but many were anarchists and not helpful to a functioning society. You cannot pull the wool over the eyes of the people and call January 6 any differently than the protests that went on and on and on with silence from the ruling party. You must choose but trust me, you are the worst baseball players by average, you have struck out with every desperate attempt to make Trump look bad. His popularity with the people and trust of the people only continues to rise with each day this fraudulent hearing continues. How about a scope on the Portland protests at the Capitol? Let's see the same scope or you are cowards with no dignity and the American people have not and will not let you off the hook for that on election day. It is time to grow up and stop playing games with our intelligence. GROW UP!

  10. So if the secret service can do this. Guess who controls the secret service 😏 dems.

  11. But the immediate trump fanatics would have cuz trump would have told them to. They don't mind breaking other laws so why wouldn't they break this rule?

  12. The incompetent decisions not to protect 1/05 & 1/06 Secret Service texts because they were deleted (and not backed up) “as part of a device-replacement program” should be blamed on the ghost of Rose Mary Woods, the secretary President Nixon, remembered for erasing 18.5-minute gap in one of the Watergate tapes.

    There's a famous photo of her trying to demonstrate how she could have accidentally erased it — it's known as the "Rose Mary Stretch."

    So now we have the Secret Service version of the "Rose Mary Stretch” as their excuse why these texts are not available to the Inspector General or the January 6th Committee.

  13. Why isn't there an official House Committee investigating ways to lower inflation , reduce gun violence , secure our borders , lower gas prices , combat big city crime ?

  14. This House Select Committee is doing an incredible job at keeping the Congressional approval rating well below 20% by waisting their constituents , time , energy , and money as LAW MAKERS engage in shameful ineffective conduct.

  15. DOJ needs to look at their personal phones as well.

  16. The Jan. 6 committee is garbage.

  17. If they don’t communicate by text how are there texts missing?
    I’m confused.

  18. Yeah…. they also said Trump’s call logs were missing, only to find out it was completely made up.

  19. He invited

    He incited

    They rioted

    He then denied it

    Even though he implied it

    Now he must be indicted.

  20. Can't a computer wiz retrieve messages?

  21. If texting is prohibited in the Secret Service, how were text messages erased if they didn't exist in the first place? Hastily downplaying or brushing aside allegations only lets us assume the worst.

  22. Trumps Troopers in the Secret Service.

  23. When are they going to investigate Piglosi’s role

  24. You mean that Political Organizations would actually erase phone and computer data? Never heard of that before ROFL.
