Every email that I send or receive on my government computer is archived somewhere, not on my computer. I have a hard time believing that all of those emails were lost... I’m pretty sure the systems are redundant.
NSA has copies!
Let’s clear up your confusion. Lyin’ Lois’ emails for the 2 years subpoenaed by the House committee, are not “lost” and have never been “lost”. No one but the White House and the IRS believes this ploy. This is a red herring thrown up in the face of Issa’s committee in an attempt to end the investigation and close the hearings.
Just look back on the last five years of the Obama administration. Obama and his minions have lied at every turn and continue to lie to the media and public to this day. Why would anyone take at face value their assertion that the key witness’s emails were “lost” when her computer’s hard drive crashed? The answer is that no one does. This is an outright lie to cover a lie.
Similar to when Obama released his long form birth certificate back in 2011 and posted it on the White House website, claiming that it was a photocopy of the original form from Hawaii. Only the White House, the propaganda media and hard-core liberal supporters believed that hoax. Hundreds of computer/digital graphics professionals came out in public almost immediately and said the form was a manipulated, created Photoshopped image, and a poor one at that. In other words, it was a forgery. A fraudulent document. The same is true now with this IRS assertion. IT professionals from all over the country are coming out saying that emails do not just disappear, even if a hard drive crashed. The administration is so arrogant and omnipotent that they think everyone else out here in the country are stupid and naive and don’t understand all of this “technical computer stuff”.
So don’t believe for one second what the IRS is claiming. Even their own regulations, on top of redundant federal regulations, require that all systems be backed up and even that hard-copy, printed versions of emails be archived for future reference. To believe that the IRS did none of this is so far-fetched, it simply lies in fallow ground. Their claim that the emails from her computer are “lost” because of an alleged hard drive crash is a moot point anyway. There are multiple other places that her emails are stored in and are retrievable for the committee.
