The Ghost of Rose Mary Woods did it!

"The (DHS) notified us that many U.S. Secret Service...text messages from January 5 and 6 2021 were erased as part of a device replacement program," (DHS Inspector General) Cuffari wrote. "The USSS erased those messages after (the inspector general) requested records of electronic communications from USSS, as part of our evaluation of events at the Capitol on January 6."

Perhaps you would like to dispense with the formalities and just have Trump beheaded, hanged, or placed before a firing squad.

@RedBaron I'm not the one dispensing with the formalities. Trump is the one putting up every roadblock and hiding behind any objection he can find. If he is as innocent as he proclaims, why wouldn't he have wanted a more bi-partisan Commission to begin with? Why wouldn't he want to go on record before the courts or the House Committee he forced Congress to form because of his opposition to the bi partisan Commission outside of Congress? And when he has exhausted all those stalling techniques, let's not forget his famous mantra that only the guilty plead The Fifth.

@dancingtongue So that means you would like to dispense with the formalities and summarily sentence the guy.

dancingtongue · 80-89, M

@RedBaron No. It means I would like the guy -- for once in his life -- to stand up and account for his actions like a big boy. Tell his side of the story, under oath.

RedBaron · M

@dancingtongue I believe the only way that can happen is if he is indicted, which may well not happen.

dancingtongue · 80-89, M

@RedBaron He would have to be indicted for the court hearings. Depositions and public testimony before the House committee are under oath, no indictment required.

@dancingtongue I wouldn't lose any sleep or hold my breath waiting for it to happen, but go ahead, jump up and down to your heart's content.
