They said a technical glitch was the reason for the missing texts? I don’t believe them!

[mewzilla]

FWIW, I can’t find any reportage stating that ALL missing texts have been recovered.

In before the photo of the “just kidding!” gay aircraft controller from airplane, with the power plug pulled out.

They must withhold the ones about yoga, weddings, and oral sex.

Russian meddling? Is Obama Russian?

[Hot Tabasco]

All the text messages I’ve sent and received then deleted, they can be retrieved?

“SAMSUNG lowered the BOOM on them.”

Yes! it was ingenious of Trump to “blame” Samsung in that tweet.

[Sans-Culotte]

But there's a story here as to how these went "missing" in the first place. I'd love to here the explanation.

IMO They went "missing" so that they could be altered into something that was not damning when they were later "found".

If you’re an FBI agent on a government phone there’s probably no such thing as “deletion.”

[apocalypto]

I hope Sessions will be pressured to go after Lois Lerner. Lerner should at the least lose her huge pension.

[Cementjungle]

The question is, what will DOJ do with them?

Heck it was easy, all they did was Google: Fibbing Bolshevik Incompetents, and Bingo ...

[DarthVader]

These bastards are being watched Like hawks and they were told to put them back or else.

My guess is somebody explained “obstruction of justice” to the IT guys.

“Horowitz wrote in the letter to Johnson and Grassley that his office will provide copies of the recovered texts to the Justice Department, after which leadership can decide how to proceed with distributing the information to Senate committees.”

[COBOL2Java]

If the messages were actually recovered from the phones themselves, then it seems to me that they had been simply deleted on the phones. It’s a lot less work for the system software to just mark something deleted than to purposely overwrite the storage.

Ollie North has got to be laughing at this...

[old-ager]

BTW — 50,000 text messages require - nominally - 8 megabytes to store. Even a cheap phone has a gigabyte of solid state “disk” storage — more than 100 times the nominal 8 megabytes.

Other factors could change this calculation, but it’s a little perspective.
