Two leading House Democrats are requesting a government watchdog step away from an investigation into deleted text messages sent by the Secret Service around the time of the U.S. Capitol attack.
Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, chair of House Homeland Security Committee, and New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney, chair of the House Oversight Committee, sent the request Tuesday to the Council of Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency.
In their letter, Thompson and Maloney wrote they have "grave concerns" about Joseph Cuffari, the Department of Homeland Security's inspector general -- including what they said was his failure to promptly notify Congress of "crucial information" while investigating Jan. 6.
"Inspector General Cuffari failed to provide adequate or timely notice that the Secret Service had refused for months to comply with DHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) requests for information related to the January 6 attack and failed to notify Congress after DHS OIG learned that the Secret Service had erased text messages related to this matter," Thompson and Maloney wrote.
"These omissions left Congress in the dark about key developments in this investigation and may have cost investigators precious time to capture relevant evidence," Thompson and Maloney argued.
The letter raises other concerns about Cuffari's performance, including "reports that he sought to censor findings of domestic abuse and sexual harassment by DHS employees" and his past refusal to investigate Secret Service actions.

Funny...It is the top democrats that made those messages disappear.
History shows that the investigators are nothing more than fixers.
Someone needs to explain that whole co-equal branch thing to these megalomaniacs.
We want someone who has already made up their mind and will put out a report denouncing the evil Trump and fire the agents who covered things up. chucky and nancy
Forget about her.
Trump has his Secret Service agents wrapped around his finger. This is just the latest ploy by the kangaroo committee to create a distraction from the reality that they “got nuffin” on Trump.
The kangaroo committee is handing the baton off to the DOJ.
I’d like to mention one more thing:
Benny Thompson is slowwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Then the RATS can pay the bass turd’s salary.
Truth @ post 3
Yep, America, as we knew is gone.
