EXCLUSIVE: The former House Select Committee on Jan. 6 deleted more than 100 encrypted files from its probe just days before Republicans took over the majority in the House of Representatives, Fox News Digital has learned.

The House Administration Committee’s Oversight Subcommittee is leading an investigation into Jan. 6, 2021, led by Chairman Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga. The panel is investigating the security failures on that day, as well as the “actions” of the former select committee investigating the Capitol riot.

Loudermilk, last week, told Fox News Digital his investigation has entered a “new phase” with renewed support from House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who has committed additional resources to the panel’s investigation.

Charge and Hold them for Contempt until the end of the Congressional Session.

At a minimum, they clearly appear to be white collar domestic enemies. Separate criminal charges brought in a federal court and fines and imprisonment that go beyond a session of Congress seems most appropriate.

I think with Cloud storage the files probably have several versions that could be accessed. Cloud storage not only has versioning, it also has cheap deep storage. I don’t think anything in the Cloud will be deleted for decades, and maybe not even then.

C’mon! It was just tapes of yoga, grandchildren, and Chelsea’s wedding.
Why would they save those?

House Administration Oversight Subcommittee Chair Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., sent a letter to former Select Committee Chair Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., demanding he provide answers and passwords for the data, which was deleted against House rules, according to Fox News Digital....

That’s why the Democrats always have their black comrades do their dirty work for them. That way if the House punishes Democrat congressmen for corrupt behavior, the Democrats will cry racism, and end up beating the Republicans to death for even mentioning corruption.
The white Democrat masters are privileged - no punishment for them, ever - even if their black congressman gets censured, they escape by using him as bait. He is in a safe district so corruption charges won’t hurt him.

Maybe they should bring back those Pakistani IT guys that ran the Democrat computers in the House... the Awan brothers probably know all the passwords and need for a bribe can probably recover everything.
