They all need to be replaced
Look at Biden and still has this guy that trump appointed
He is the problem.
Thank you Laurence for awesome reporting. You think that @PresJoeBiden would have replaced this
GADD FLY.
President Biden I admire your good willn the world
Lock him up! Lock him up!
Criminal actually
They are muddling the difference between preserving the integrity of the office of the presidency and preserving and protecting the criminality sedition’s and maleficence’s of the goon occupying that seat.
I begrudgingly and very rarely give thumbs up on network news but this is real not just calling it even news Lawrence.
Crook in charge!
Why hasn't James Murray been replaced and charged?
Moles are in all the branches and departments of our government
The Secret Service guy ranting about a government issued phone is a fool! Meanwhile Facebook helps the republicans to go after a mother and daughter for conspiring to use the morning after pill. Yeah privacy is dead.
maybe the mob is the appropriate agency to 'manage' the investigation of the mini-mobster con-in-chief.
I just cannot believe there are still people that think Trump cares about them. He has done nothing but show what a selfish, imature buffoon he is. He puts himself above all people. They are simply just "things" he plays with and betrays when they are no longer useful to him. He has never been presidental. He has always lied and supports destroying others if he thinks they are no longer loyal to him. He is letting all of the people who participated in his attempt to overthrough the government rot in jail. I pray that republicans will stop supporting him and see him for what he is, a big liar. Look at where his most loyal friends are now.
All trumps appointments must be prosecuted For High Crimes and misdemeanors. To the point the criminal intent of the president and replacement staff with appointments are culpable.
It's not believable it's a flat out lie they got rid of the text purposely they know it and now so do we.
I still can't get over the fact that he buried some of his kid's MOTHER in his GOLF CLUB! CHEAPSKATE! wow……………..they shoud check under her coffin for all those phones and other info he stole, watch it, coiuld be silverware!
Anyone involved with the deletion of Texts, Head of Secret Service has left the USA should be arrested and thrown into JAIL!!!! Anyone involved in this deserves prison, loss of any and all benefits, and start over!
Hmmmm!
Biden should’ve got rid of ALL these Trump people immediately. That criminal DeVoy is STILL wrecking the Postal Service. I’m a progressive Democrat but this is outrageous. I’m really disappointed in Biden on this.
It's extraordinary that the most sophisticated and one of the best equipped agency in the world manages to delete the most sensitive and vital data despite instructions to preserve it. Is it pure incompetence or deliberately criminal?
rubbish rubbish rubbish the 5th stops almost all convictions
the most serious problem the 5th
And he'll do it again if not indided, because, Donald Trump has already proven himself, to the American people that he, and the Republican conservative nationalists clowns 🤡 are totally against them and not for them. So, I doubt very seriously if Donald Trump will ever get back in office by the American people as a whole!!! 🤔 They're ain't enough American people in general who are loyal enough to vote Trump back in office.
DO YOU THINK HE WILL LIE UNDER OATH?
Everyone who sits in office from the president on down should look at this movie.
Jimmy Stewart 1939, Mr Smith goes to Washington.
You were put in office by the people for the people. The people voted all of you in office to protect our freedom for all.
The constitution is for all to follow. When you have one person with their own agenda and don't want to listen they need to step away from position. All politicians should be working together for the people. The politicians should not be tearing this country apart. All other countries is watching.
What are the politicians showing the next generation? People have to be taught how to hate and be a bully. Is this what the people in office want to leave the next generation?
Everyone who broke the law is entitled to do process. Get on with it so the country can heal.
Remember this country was made from all groups of people.
Great reporting
That cry baby needs to shut up already
Great reporting, Lawrence.
Everyone is after the FBI, maybe they should go after the Secret Service…..trump used them because he couldn’t use the FBI.
He is trumps goon he will bold face lie
Trump is the most corrupt person on planet Earth. It's all about loyalty to him, not America, not the Constitution and certainly not to democracy. He is a disgrace to every citizen of America.
Why isn’t the media mentioning names of the people that were involved in the destruction of evidence of a crime of this magnitude? Why no hearings. The explanation given so far – that these important texts were lost bc SS mobile phones had to be swapped isn’t remotely believable. This and other stories raise the question as to why James Murray hasn’t testified publicly about this issue.
Why are so many men in law enforcement morally reprehensible? Perhaps, law enforcement (and politics) attracts a particular personality – psychopaths.
Murr couldn't lead a successful secret service job making him tonight's big loser!
Cheatle's resume sounds like a great replacement for Murray 🎟️
Now we know who told about the boxes at mar a lago. They all wanted to keep there jobs and not being blackball by trump. Why did this question about james murray take so long?
No man is above the law
Meaning:
The law should apply equally to all citizens.
Background:
This expression dates back to President Theodore Roosevelt's Third Annual Message to Congress on Dec 7, 1903:
The consistent policy of the National Government, so far as it has the power, is to hold in check the unscrupulous man, whether employer or employee; but to refuse to weaken individual initiative or to hamper or cramp the industrial development of the country.
We recognize that this is an era of federation and combination, in which great capitalistic corporations and labor unions have become factors of tremendous importance in all industrial centers. Hearty recognition is given the far-reaching, beneficent work which has been accomplished through both corporations and unions, and the line as between different corporations, as between different unions, is drawn as it is between different individuals; that is, it is drawn on conduct, the effort being to treat both organized capital and organized labor alike; asking nothing save that the interest of each shall be brought into harmony with the interest of the general public, and that the conduct of each shall conform to the fundamental rules of obedience to law, of individual freedom, and of justice and fair dealing towards all.
Whenever either corporation, labor union, or individual disregards the law or acts in a spirit of arbitrary and tyrannous interference with the rights of others, whether corporations or individuals, then where the Federal Government has jurisdiction, it will see to it that the misconduct is stopped, paying not the slightest heed to the position or power of the corporation, the union or the individual, but only to one vital fact–that is, the question whether or not the conduct of the individual or aggregate of individuals is in accordance with the law of the land.
Every man must be guaranteed his liberty and his right to do as he likes with his property or his labor, so long as he does not infringe the rights of others. No man is above the law and no man is below it; nor do we ask any man's permission when we require him to obey it. Obedience to the law is demanded as a right; not asked as a favor.
In contemporary records, the entire text above is in one paragraph. We have added breaks so as to make it easier to read online.
That's sounds dangerous for the safety of my president. Have a snake hiding in the grass. REGARDS
The problem seems to be men. Boot them all out and give the jobs to women who will do things right.
