This is unreal, I knew something was up, everything felt like a coordinated setup from the start. Trump was not supposed to last this long but they've failed. I feel sorry for the zombies that bought into the trash the media has been feeding them for over a year.
I must admit I had doubts at certain times last year but I'm feeling vindicated, always go with your gut. Go Trump
A lot of the conspiracy stuff bandied about by the right seemed way out there and not something I would take seriously but this is something. They are talking about a 2nd special council now.
There has seemed to be a real effort by the feds to take Trump down and now we have a smoking gun. Interesting to see where it leads.
That's what I've been saying. Look at the leaks that started after his state of the union speech. And how they took out Sessions in such a calculated fashion (he didn't stand a chance and folded like a cheap suit) so they could have a free run at the president. I believe certain members in the media is complicit in the takedown attempt also.
Oh I don't follow CNN -- I follow your interest in this story. LOLOLOL.
It's cracking me up.
As for the conclusion every time someone asks you to clarify that the person must be watching CNN -- over simplistic conclusion,. ridiculous rationale and based on nothing.
Get over it. Folks don't like Trump because folks don't like Trump. He's written books and given countless interviews and has left a trail of who he is and shows us every day.....CNN has nothing to do with it.
If anything most of you have spent so much time drinking the conservative media kool-aid you don't realize how much information is out there about what kind of person Trump really is.
So far you have a handful of Republicans saying they might have something....based on the wording of two FBI agents who don't like Trump.
if you believe they had the power to create a secret society that was undermining Trump -- well -- go ahead.
Sessions is going to find out all the facts and i will wait for those -- not some maybe baby stuff.
We weren't looking for a date but a leader and we got lucky with Trump.
He is the kind we needed. He fights and doesn't lay down like those in the GOP before him.
No one has seen that before and its driving anti Trump loons in both parties loco.
I am not a trumper I voted for Johnson. But why does every story that is not a trump - russia story a diversion?
We can have a diversity of conversation that not all Trump Russia.
What are you afraid of?
where are the facts jack...... this story is all wind no facts no meat just noise .
i ask you jack what are the facts of this story... not accusations not if and coulds but facts....
It's not so much that a government agency lost texts, if thats what you are referring to, but rather the timing of the lost texts.
Texts from a period between Dec. 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017 are missing - 5 months worth! What is odd about this time frame is that Robert Mueller was appointed as special counsel by Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein on May 17, 2017. And the chain of messages picks back up on May 18, 2017.
Between Dec. 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017, key events in the Russian investigation occurred such as Trump's transition as well as Flynn's FBI interview (Peter Strzok conducted this interview). And as we have seen from previously released texts to the public, Peter Strzok and his lover Lisa Page exchanged back and forth about needing an "insurance policy" if Trump was elected.
This is why 5 months of missing texts from a crucial period in the Russia Investigation are so important.
Linked below is an article from the Washington Examiner, in which the creator of BleachBit and ex-FBI experts question the 'loss' of Peter Strzok and Lisa Page texts.
The first place you would go would be the devices themselves. if the messages were not deleted they could well still be there. And even if deleted they can still be recovered some times at least partially. However when the FBI suggests the data is not retained I would presume they tried to get it from the Samsung devices without success. If the stuff was never uploaded to some synch or backup system it is not going to be easily recovered.
And note that a knowledgeable user with a belief that the system is collecting the data automatically may deliberately delete the information so it does not remain on his relatively insecure device.
If I do my taxes and send them in electronically, and the IRS rules that I owe them $50,000, can I expect them to lose my returns, or "fail to preserve" them, so I no longer have to worry about what they said?
Can I expect the U.S. Government to be as casually unconcerned about my missing tax returns, as they are about these 5 months of text messages?

Do you know they are being casual about it?
How do you know that?
