New: The Secret Service told us it has no records of call logs for its top officials on Jan. 6, the day of the Capitol attack.

We’re skeptical. Members of the Secret Service were at the Capitol with former VP Mike Pence.

Call logs simply document incoming and outgoing calls, like this record we previously obtained:

While the Secret Service was only one law enforcement agency present at the Capitol that day, we would be surprised if there were no calls made or received that day by top officials at the Secret Service.

1. Sounds fishy

Who's hiding what?

[TheBlackAdder]

35. You can bet they don't have any records.

V'room, make tiny little pieces of our misdeeds, maybe no one will notice.

[Maeve]

2. And if you believe that, I gotta bridge for sale...

[PatSeg]

20. They didn't say the call logs never existed

They said they couldn't locate them. They could be telling the truth. The parties involved could have destroyed them, which is very possible if for any reason they are incriminating. That would also be an indication that the insurrection was planned from within the administration.

[Lonestarblue]

22. Trump most likely ordered them destroyed.

Surprise, surprise.

Edited to add a question. With the phone numbers of the SS agents on duty, couldn’t cell phone records be accessed to identify calls, especially between from agents at the Capitol and the White House?

[PatSeg]

26. Yeah, that's what I was thinking

Or someone very close to Trump.

That's a good question though. Surely there are cell phone records for these agents. I think they will surface eventually.

[JFK1961]

33. Phone numbers or Phone company not involved

Communication between agents and with offices are through secure military communications channels--they don't use the cell network any more than they do in "The Beast" or on Air Force One. This is not to say that there are not or shouldn't be classified records of those communications. But any such records would be directly under the control of the WHCA--and likely easier to delete or hide by corrupt officials. There would be no "cell phone records" of such communications, as we understand in regular life. There is no way, for instance, that you could call one of their phones directly from your own cell, office or home phone.

3. They didn't call for back up when the Capitol was taken over?

They didn't call their superiors to inform them?
They didn't call POSTUS SS detail to warn them?

Either they have doctored the messages or they are totally incompetent.

[WhiteTara]

11. or complicit.

[Irish_Dem]

12. Bingo.

[FBaggins]

31. Does the SS "call" for backup on a cell phone?

Did the FOIA request cover the devices that they do use?

[Irish_Dem]

43. Good point. I am sure they have work phones and other devices they use.

[The Magistrate]

4. I Used To Tell My Grandkids, Ma'am

When you lie to me, don't tell me something only an idiot could believe. Show some respect and at least make it plausible....

Perhaps the FBI's siphon of Capitol communications has something to add.

[shanti]

16. Good to see your posts again, Sir

[Hekate]

17. Too true

Good to see you

[uponit7771]

29. +1

[ancianita]

30. +1

We have some Trump enablers at the highest levels of law enforcement, and their pretending otherwise, as in "just following orders," is the lie.

[triron]

5. How convenient.

[Pantagruel]

6. FOIA request Filed on 1-11-21

Maybe new FOIA request to the Biden SS would be more responsive?
At any rate ,JB needs to deal with this.

[sop]

7. No wonder Biden asked for a different SS detail when he became POTUS.

[SunSeeker]

38. Yup. nt

[malaise]

8. Well the army also lied

[usajumpedtheshark]

9. Maybe they pulled a Nixon

and a Secret Service employee accidentally deleted the logs for that day while contorting his/her body into a position usually only attempted by extreme contortionists

[dchill]

10. Everyone knows that when it comes to cell phones...

... There are records of everything. In multiples.

[mitch96]

24. Yup, I bet the NSA has records.... nt

[GeorgeGist]

13. They're LYING ...

OR INCOMPETENT.

[FBaggins]

14. More likely that AO just asked wrong

Maybe the records only come in from the phone company on a periodic basis and they asked too soon... or maybe the GSA holds those records and asking the SS for them is the wrong process.

Just as likely... how often does the SS communicate by cell phone? The request doesn’t seem to cover records of radio communication (or, for that matter, any texts or emails)

[lagomorph777]

19. No. They're lying. Period.

[SunnyATT]

27. They're LYING and INCOMPETENT!

[spanone]

15. How conveeeeeeenient

[lagomorph777]

18. Somebody's going to jail for this.

Time to purge the SS.

[ancianita]

32. And the FBI. And the military. And the Capitol Police. And the National Guard.

All fine and good that they "name" white supremacists as the national security threat, and yet they are another layer, the pro-white Republican layer, that lets them break laws.

[Generic Other]

21. What, they just abandoned Pence in the Capitol building?

Come on, Rosemary Woods!

[Evolve Dammit]

23. Actual staff sure know who deleted/removed them. Another investigation. Whistleblowers please!

[DanieRains]

25. The Mob Is Covering All It's / Their Tracks

SOP.

[bringthePaine]

28. as none of this passes "the smell test", the moderation of tone in response is spectacular👍

[kiranon]

34. Investigate and let those go who have no records

They can find other jobs but not in the Secret Service. Same goes for any enablers. Hope a whistle blower comes forward. The whole point of transparency is to have records. No records was an intentional act directed by someone/s.

[DallasNE]

36. Next Request

Who had security clearance to the records that are now missing? Did any of those people access records for January 6th? There should be records tracking the custody of those records including what action, if any, they took. Any whistleblowers out there? There should ne a log of every touch and by whom.

[Grasswire2]

37. No wonder Pugs are stalling on the new AG confirmation. nt

[movingviolation]

40. The nsa probably has digital recordings of phone calls, texts, emails, pretty much everything.

So can't these be accessed? If not, then why record all raw comms? Oh yeah, I forgot, the terrorists are white and republican.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

41. Some high level shenanigans going on here

Lock them all up.

The insurrection was a crime and covering for the other the Orange man is also a crime.

Do we have the courage to jail all these people ???

[Hermit-The-Prog]

42. Must be the same tech support as fixed the cameras in Epstein's cell.

[Cha]

44. So that's weird.. no calls for assistance

with protecting Pence?

[taxi]

45. And(or,or,or,or)

And nothing. No surprise.

[BobTheSubgenius]

46. They are not the only ones who are skeptical.

That sounds AWFULLY unlikely.
