GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger says it's 'quite crazy' for the US Secret Service to have deleted January 6-related text messages
Business Insider ^ | 7/17/22 | John L. Dorman

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger on Sunday said it would be "quite crazy" if the Secret Service did indeed delete text messages related to the riot at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.

During an interview on the CBS News program "Face the Nation," the Illinois Republican - who along with Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming are the only GOP members of House committee probing the riot - told host Margaret Brennan that the full details of the situation have not yet been uncovered.

"We're going to know more Tuesday," he said, adding that the panel has issued a subpoena to obtain access to the records.

The Secret Service informed the committee that the records could no longer be located due to a changeover to a new phone system.

However, Kinzinger remarked that the statements provided by the agency were "very conflicting."

"They claim it was this technological change, 'we moved everything, we lost these texts.' And then they also put out a statement, though, that said, we've only lost some of the texts and everything relevant to this investigation has been turned over. So those are very conflicting statements," he said on the program. "So we decided as a committee, let's request these by Tuesday, and we can make a decision."

"In the very least, it is quite crazy that the Secret Service would actually end up deleting anything related to one of the more infamous days in American history, particularly when it comes to the role of the Secret Service," he added.

Every crime they commit, when caught they try to pin it on our side.

I expect no difference with this.

These two clowns are not Republicans, they are dems. They used the Republican party and the money from the RNC to get elected. They are Dems. They defrauded the Republican donors out of their money to get elected. They both should repay the RNC for the money used to get elected

.Gov has been out of control and corrupt for decades. People are just now realizing that. Dunno why it took so long for some.

There are people who hate America and what it stands for. They have no allegiance to America and truly think that they are intellectually and/or philosophically superior to/beyond America. A significant number of these people hold public office, or have jobs that involve those who do. They don't care what happens to you. They not only don't 'like you', they likely hate you.

I’ve known that since my early twenties. I’m surprised how they now appear to be openly bragging about it.

Remember during mueller when the FBI deleted 30 phones for routine maintenance. As usual the leftist scum set the bar and are shocked when others follow suit.
