The White House is really telling you that they DESTROYED THE EMAILS on ALL Computers/Servers
Without belaboring the point, I've made the case very succinctly in other threads that this just isn't true. Besides the very obvious violation of numerous records retention policies in place since the 1970s, I can personally tell you that the federal government has backups EVERYWHERE. It would take a monumental, concerted effort for a group of people to wipe all copies of this data, and even then, I bet there are stubs or scratch files somewhere with the data in it.
