In reply to the discussion: Another Jeff Tiedrich tweet about Secret Service texts: [View all]brush
(61,033 posts)47. Yep, you're not an expert, and you're ok with the SS...
not retaining Jan. 5 and 6th, 2021 texts on what trump was doing in the SUV and what the agents might have texted about taking Pence away from his official duty to certifiy EC ballots because they had i-phones?
If any government agency has i-phones, I'm pretty sure their IT departments have a procedure to retain and store files.
In fact the SS in this instance say they were migrating files from old phones to new ones only some files were lost...and they expect us to believe the lost files just happen to be from Jan. 5 and 6, 2021, the very ones that we need.
No one but an idiot would not be suspicious of that story.

For some reason I can't access twitter today. I can't even upload the login page.

Twitter did a routine scheduled equipment replacement so all accounts got deleted.

Most, perhaps all law enforcement agencies record their radio communications.

Straight out of "Three Days of the Condor." Fortunately, neither Condor nor Pence got into the car.

I agree. I think Pence had the Condor scene in mind when he refused the ride. n/t

Why was it that only the texts from 1/5, and 1/6 were deleted? I call Bullshit
