  1. Incompetence or malevolence? That’s the question with nearly every aspect of the 45th administration.

    1. @Microsoft-Pox really? better economy, lower unemployment, limits on cost of insulin, better heathcare, infrastructure improvements for Internet, roads, bridges, job creation programs, ports, supply chain, better healthcare for veterans, investment in american computer chips & industry. Making rich corporations & people who make over 400,000 per year actually pay some taxes. The horror wow. You might have even got a decent minimum wage or maternity/parental leave if many Republicans didn’t vote against that & every other measure that helps ordinary people.

  2. And the Department of Defense texts deleted, and Homeland Security texts deleted. All at once. What a coincidence!πŸ™„

    1. @Darnell Jackson lol and when GA gets trump, cant wait for De Santis to try to pardon and be told “ermmm sir no pardon for state crimes…”

  3. Are we still playing this game of giving the SS and DHS the benefit of doubt? Eye roll! πŸ™„ This is a cover up. Bring on the damn indictments already!

    1. It’s undeniably extremely suspicious, but giving people the benefit of the doubt is the precise point of the presumption of innocence. It’s their job now to investigate and discover whether this was done intentionally, and if so by whom, at whose direction etc. And then to prosecute anyone who falls under those categories.

  4. Secret service is the GO TO organization for sleuthing texts and information for cases according to Glen Krischner former jag officer and Justice investigator lawyer. They would know how to work with texts, this is on purpose.

  5. If Cippilone is worried about presidential privilege, let him share his information with Joe Biden, the President, and let him decide whether the rest of us can hear it.
    That should do it. It’s presidential privilege, not orange criminal privilege.

  6. “There has never been, ever before, an administration that’s been so open and transparent.”
    Claimed by: Donald Trump
    Fact check by PolitiFact: Pants on Fire

    1. @dreamcoyote I agree but whoever’s phone that they deleted, no matter their position, was obviously in on it. Otherwise why would they have deleted the correspondence. That’s my opinion.

    2. trump thinks that if you tell the same lie enough times people will believe it. Like Walmart saying they have the lowest prices .

  7. Every agent and employee involved in any way should be fired and charged with conspiracy as well as destruction of evidence.

  8. James Murray should be fired and replaced for directly allowing this to happen on his watch.

    1. Billy, where in the post has anyone said anything but those responsible should be prosecuted? Normal patriotic Americans want due process of law. Is that a problem for you? Are you scared dear?

  9. Secret Service are either INCOMPETENT or involved in a COVER-UP. Either way, they need to be held accountable!

  10. Challenging it might be but if the Justices department doesn’t prosecute Trump, you have De Santis coming up behind him and he is twice as likely to push the boundaries twice as hard as Trump simply because he is more educated and intelligent, mis-directed though that is.

    1. @Middle Guy Judges don’t make decisions and say it’s based on evidence when there isn’t any. There is evidence. So you saying when there’s evidence there are charges is very appropriate, there is evidence so there will be charges.

  11. If they are incapable they should be fired and investigated like anybody else who is paid to do a job and can’t.

  12. The text messages should be recovered and the people involved in the cover up shou;d be locked up on criminal charges…this government does not have the right to hide this from the PEOPLE!!!!

  13. Most Americans = β€œThe USA is the greatest country in the history of the world!”
    Meanwhile… the USA Secret Service is incompetent and unable to keep track of text messages.
    Most teenagers = yeah I have every text message I ever sent

  14. I work with computers and have done many migrations of data… it is actually unimaginable that with the excessive government spending on resources that all of this data isn’t already duplicated twice over in resilient backups across different time zones even before a migration occurred…. it is also actually horrifying to think that any agency could have the power independently to be the sole custodian to their own public records data… this basically means there is no accountability within this niche law-enforcement agency… who is policing the agencies with all the guns and protective capabilities? This sounds like amateur hour at tech convention if its this easy to destroy data from a single point/person/agency… ???????

  15. Any ‘executive privilege’ claim would be adjudicated in hours by the presiding judge and would NOT go through the courts ‘for months’.
