HOW ACCIDENTAL CAN YOU GET?
Powerline ^ | SEPTEMBER 12, 2020 | SCOTT JOHNSON

Posted on 09/12/2020 12:42:21 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Whence the story that Robert Mueller’s maleficent miscreants wiped their government phones? Judicial Watch strikes again, as the organization explains in this press release.

The press release announces that Judicial Watch received 87 pages of records from the Department of Justice that show senior members of Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel’s Office repeatedly and “accidentally” wiped phones assigned to them. The Department of Justice has posted the documents online here. Politico’s story doesn’t mention Judicial Watch, but let’s give credit where credit is due.

PJ Media’s Matt Margolis draws on Brooke Singman’s Fox News report capturing this quotable quote from Rep. Devin Nunes: “It’s an amazing coincidence that all these professional investigators kept accidentally wiping their phones. You’d think these people could come up with a more believable excuse for hiding evidence.” Let it be noted that Rep. Nunes inarguably knows whereof he speaks.

UPDATE: Comparing Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton’s email update with the text of the linked press release, I believe that the press release omits this concluding comment: “The pandemic of ‘wiped’ phones among the Mueller team requires a criminal investigation of this destruction of evidence and potential obstruction of justice and other crimes. The DOJ and FBI hid these records for nearly two years – which only adds to appearance of a cover-up.”

Unless there is a directive that these guys should erase their phones (in writing, as a standard process) they all should know better.

What a shit show goat rodeo.

The Muller investigation was a Coup spoliation clean-up project disguised as a Russian Collusion Investigation.

Scott Adams pointed out in his Periscope yesterday that you have to work really, really hard to wipe your phone "accidentally".

The timeout forces you to come back something like a half-hour later, multiple times...

Some of the phones were wiped using the Apple operating system’s ‘wrong-password’ failsafe, where the wrong password must be entered ten times – after which the system wipes the drive.

Those who couldn’t seem to remember their password 10 times in a row include ‘attack dog’ lawyer Andrew Weissman, who urged DOJ attorneys to go rogue and ‘not’ help US Attorney John Durham investigate FBI and DOJ conduct during the Trump investigation.

I want to see that vile Andrew Weismann brought to justice for all the lives he’s ruined during his corrupt career! He’s a criminal!

Accidental as in “I lost my guns in a boating accident.”

(According to a person just retired from the FBI and who is ashamed of having worked for it given what has been revealed) Word is Judicial Watch is HATED throughout the FBI with the intensity of 1000 suns.

It is not just the 7th floor. The thing needs to be ripped out completely and their wells poisoned and land salted.

Clearly they weighed the consequences for giving up the info on their phones vs. the consequences for obstruction and it was a no brainer. Especially after the Hillary Clinton “bleach bit” fiasco and hammer hitting of phones and computers with no consequences whatsoever.

These seditous, traitorous criminal creeps should be waterboarded with extreme prejudice to determine if they all did “accidentally” destroy the memories of their government phones. It is truly too much for yet another convenient co-inky-dink. I’d love to see their “interrogations” of live TV. These pathetic no-integrity bums deserve no less.
