Speaker 1: There is a new story involving Secret Service text messages related to the Trump riots
that has now gone viral and exploded. I'm going to tell you what's going on. And remember,
just because text messages have been erased doesn't mean they aren't retrievable. And indeed,
the latest news is that the text messages, despite being deleted, are going to be retrieved. So let's
jump into the story. CNBC Report January 6th Panel Subpoenas Secret Service for Erased Texts. The
House committee investigating the U.S. Capitol attack subpoenaed the Secret Service for text
messages. Agents reportedly deleted right around January six, 2021, the date of the Trump riots.
Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson said in a statement The committee understands the
messages had been erased. Thompson outlined an aggressive timeline for the production of the
documents by Tuesday. That's tomorrow. And I'll tell you in a moment whether they are
going to have the text messages by that date, The Guardian reports. January 6th Committee
to receive deleted Secret Service texts. According to Democrat agency's account of how texts
sent on Capitol attack and day before were lost has shifted several times. When you get different
explanations for the same occurrence, it's not proof that someone is lying,
but it's at least a suggestion that you should be looking into. What the hell is going on?
Deleted Secret Service text sent on January six, the day of the insurrection at the US Capitol
will be released by Tuesday to the House committee. You can imagine how shocked we were
to get the letter from the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General saying he'd been trying
to get this information and they had in fact been deleted after he asked for them, said Zoe Lofgren
to ABC's This Week. We need all the text to get the full picture. This is the interesting part the
secret services account about how text messages from the day before and the day of the Capitol
attack were a race has shifted several times. At one point, the explanation from the Secret
Service for the lost texts was because of software upgrades, according to the inspector general.
At another point, the explanation was because of device replacements.
The inspector general also said that though the Secret Service opted to have his office do
a review of the agency's response to the Capitol attack in lieu of conducting after action reports.
It then stonewalled the review by slow walking production materials. There were claims during the
Trump administration that even the Secret Service, which is widely I don't know if widely considered
but widely expected to be an apolitical organization involved only in protecting
individuals in positions of power, including the president, their family and others,
even though that's the idea. The allegations during the Trump presidency were that even Secret
Service had turned political and that there were essentially Trump hacks within Secret Service,
maybe not at the highest levels, but at medium and agent levels. If indeed that was the case,
it would make sense that they would all of a sudden be wanting to be very cloudy about
what took place on January 5th, on January six, particularly now in light of Cassidy Hutchinson's
claims before the committee that Trump tried to get Secret Service to take them to the Capitol for
the riot that Trump tried to commandeer a vehicle, that Trump lunged at a Secret Service agent,
and on and on and on. So the circumstantial case would give us a number of reasons to suspect why
the Secret Service might just just not have accidentally deleted the exact test texts that
were requested as of this morning. Deleted Secret Service texts to be sent to January six committee
by Tuesday tomorrow. So it does appear as though the Secret Service texts will be turned over and
on Thursday night is what is, at least for now, considered to be the last January six hearing.
We will see what role these text messages play that you really can't make this stuff up. Now,
remember, as we are learning here, deleted and retrievable are. Two different things.
And if you zoom out for a moment and think about January five, January 6th. Trump's daily visitor
and call log has that very suspicious seven hour gap talked about that months ago Mike Pence
didn't want to get into the car with Secret Service when the rioters were getting into
the House, the Capitol, and they were chanting, hang Mike Pence and a gallows had been built.
Pence was hesitant to get into the car with Secret Service. Why exactly? We don't know. And now we
have the allegation and it seems to be proven that Secret Service texts were deleted. Look at
the pattern. Extraordinarily odd. Extraordinarily bizarre. And in the next 72 to 96 hours, we may
have more insights into exactly what is in those text messages. Let me know what you expect. Find
