Congress should call to testify, UNDER OATH, the FBI technical systems STAFF LEVEL employees responsible for records maintenance and backup. They’re much less likely to lie and dissemble in their testimony. In other words, they’ll be more honest and it will be far more likely that the truth will be revealed.

I also hope that the IRS Inspector General will be on this like white on rice.

Imagine the Washington Post (Amazon Post) or the New York Times if a member of the Trump team was missing texts? Would they find that acceptable? LOL!

“The Kenyan from Indonesia had eight years to pack every agency with true believers.”

Irrespective of where he was from, he definitely was motivated by resentment and the desire to alter the United States irreversibly. What makes him dangerous is that he doesn't doubt himself, and is convinced his evaluation of US mistakes, US sin, and what needs to be ‘transformed’ in the US is correct. This allows him to justify doing things like weaponizing the intelligence agencies. When you're convinced you're on a rightly mission, it's too easy to rationalize doing unethical things.

They don’t need to preserve them.

The carriers are required to preserve them.

Suppeaouna who ever the wireless provider is/was.

Then demand the emails associated with them.

Then look at anyone who received their message after forwarding

Just a hunch, but I think there’s a whole lot more “missing” texts and documents. The trick now is going to be finding anything.

Don’t have too.. All agencies have COOP plans(emergency) and part of it is requirement of data back up all transactions/emails etc.. They can be retrieved... Plus I believe OIG already have them.

They sure acted like it. I think you are right.
Which is why they hate Trump so much. He fought hard in
the primaries and in the general election and won.

Precisely why the founders tried to prevent him from being President.

Can’t they get the texts from the carrier....or NSA?

The NSA works for the Clintons, so they probably won't cough up the goods.

Pass a law cutting their staffing levels and budgets by 5% every three months (e.g. 20% are fired by the end of the year, appropriately weighted towards the senior ranks) unless and until the emails are produced. With money, jobs and survival on the line you will witness the biggest bureaucratic brawl you have ever seen.

But, my money is on door B, the sternly worded letter. Oh, and maybe they could refer the case for prosecution to...ready for this ... the Department of Justice.

Another special prosecutor?? Forget about it with Stooge Sessions. You’ve got the only special prosecutor you’re going to get as Deep State Jeff is in charge.

If McCabe and Rosenstein are not fired by midnight, then Trump no longer has any power as POTUS.

There has been a 30 year bipartisan plan to steal the country from the citizens by importing foreigners.
They are trying to make sure we are not allowed to elect anyone else who sides with the citizens and the rule of law again.
We stunned them throwing out their Majority Leader, Eric Cantor.
Trump had the wealth and fame to punch through the Bush blockade at the RNC.
They will make sure that “mistake” does not happen again.
They had previously only nominated amnesty candidates since the last amnesty. Intentionally.

It’s all about cementing the George HW Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) in place.
They desperately do not want US to be able to restore the rule of law and reverse the demographic changes they have instituted through non-enforcement of laws and borders.
They invited 30 million people here to change the country against the will of the citizens and they do not want US sending them home.
They will do whatever it takes to keep US from electing anyone who sides with the citizens and the rule of law.

What they really don’t want is for US to keep our country.

The final amnesty that would cement the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) into place has been sought repeatedly since 2006. They sold us Rubio to get the last one in 2013.
We have been prevented from electing anyone who would side with US and the rule of law by their control of the RNC and state parties.

The most important thing to the Uniparty is protecting the demographic changes they have made to the country against the will of the citizens.
That’s what drives the NeverTrump, the media and the Democrats hatred of Trump, it is an extension of their hatred of US.

Trump was elected to help US keep our country.
He really is our last hope.

. A special counsel, appointed by Trump himself.

Special counsel! Yeah, that’s the ticket! Because special counsels have been soooo effective in the past...
