Mark Levin had some good phone calls about this. People in IT, etc. One guy used to be in gov’t IT. Said that they have numerous servers that are all “mirrored”, not sure exactly what that means, but one server can go down and another one picks up with all the same information and the user won’t even know.

At the end of each day they would download the servers and save to backup. Every week (or maybe month?) they would do a physical download and ship the physical drive to an underground bunker safe from nuclear or EMP blast. He said they have been doing this since the start of the cold war.

You might end up with a day of lost data, maybe even a week if an EMP hit. But with the “cloud” storage, and lack of any recent EMP’s (!) there should be no significant loss of data.

‘Eric Holder’s Department of Justice WILL investigate, and find not even a smidgeon of corruption.”

Why bother? There _IS_ not even a smidgen of corruption. Therefore, there will be none to find.

Well, another Friday, another sh#$dump...This administration is so full of sh#$, it’s hard to believe that they only take a dump once a week. Their eyeballs must be brownish by Tuesday.

I completely agree with this assessment; this can only be the result of a deliberate action such as the result of a conspiracy. If normal IT controls are in place, more than one person knows about it because it would take more than one person to do it.

The truth WILL come out over all of this either in 2015 or 2017. There isn’t enough money to pay everyone off, and someone will answer to a book deal or magazine offer. There will be hell to pay.

This government is lawless and illegitimate.

A-N-Y-O-N-E who participated in the data destruction, if true, should be charged with treason and dealt with accordingly.
