Dog ate them.
"Hey, my emails are horrible! If I turned them over, I'd be busted. That and they'd have all the details. If I simply don't turn them over, I'm sorta busted and they have NONE of the details. So...which way do YOU think I should go, huh...?"
It's obvious.
Trump HAS a reason to fire FBI top dogs.
They’re incompetent.
Fire, prosecute, jail. No more delay. They work for Trump he can order them fired tomorrow.
This is becoming a weekly joke. We are not stupid!!
Every FBI agent is now issued a badge, gun, credit card, smart phone, and hammer.
The first time I read a report about the “missing text messages,” I immediately assumed the story was leaked to the media to provide cover for the GOP House committee so they could justifiably refuse to turn any documents over to the FBI before releasing them to the public.
Let a couple of 15 year old yutes play with the computers to find them.
DHS has the same headcount as the USMC and TWICE their budget, btw...
Don’t let him retire until well after he turns them over.
Atlanta Olympics, 1996:
An overweight security guard Richard Jewell finds a bomb in a crowded Atlanta park, an act of terror. He alerts the cops, but the bomb goes off and a desperate Bill Clinton facing a reelection bid ORDERS the FBI to simplify things by making Richard Jewell the perp.
Knowing Richard Jewell revers real cops the FBI brings him in for questioning, finally pretending to relent and accept his story of innocence. They then flattered him and lowered his guard by chatting him up in grand style like A Law Enforcement Colleague.
The FBI then claimed to Jewell that they were making a Training Videotape simulation in which a perp under questioning breaks down and confresses to a bombing, Ah shucks, our actor crapped out, got sick, say Richard, would ya help us FBI guys out..?
A micrometer away from consenting to help them with their training video, Jewell suddenly realizes if he cooperated with his friends, they might turn around use the tape against him in the world famous bombing that just transpired.
He calls his ex-roomate, a lawyer, who admonishes Jewell that hes in very grave danger. He leaves the FBI questioning and AVOIDS LIFE IN PRISON BY A WHISKER.
YOUR FBI IS **FINE** ACTING AS AN INSTRUMENT OF POLITICAL TERROR.
It started at least 30 years ago.
It’ll take a few days to find the incriminating ones... then they’ll ‘find’ them...
Sessions better get the Keystone Cops in order.
Perhaps you WISH TO FILE A COMPLAINT..?!
I’d call it something less euphemistic than “Gamesmanship”.
Do you mean with a cloth or something?
Nothing is ever truly lost.
I read awhile ago that government email actually uses G o o g l e (read deep state) servers.
Wonder where the texts go. Big Tech knows exactly.
Text messages for every one of them needs to be collected and reviewed. By Congress—constitutional right—and by a special counsel as FBI and DOJ have proved they cannot investigate themselves.
Extremely careless text message retention.
