    Also the Dan Bognino angle. But what really stood out in that book was not just how many potential screwups they had made in protective service that almost got an official killed but how utterly debauched the culture was. I don't mean to sound puritanical, but they had a slogan "Wheels up, Rings off.". Advance teams on Presidential (or other high level officials) on foreign trips would routinely cause great embarrassment to United States by destroying hotel rooms, being up all night with large numbers of prostitutes and all manner of drunkenness and drugs, necessitating local law enforcement then higher intervention and payoffs. It's a messed up culture on so many levels

    An even better question is: Who in their right mind watches Tucker Carlson?

    The Secret Service should have locked from that information after 1-6 even if it wasn’t changing our phones. The Secret Service has a long history of this.

    It is tough to say where highly encrypted (I hope) devices used by US Secret Service Agents is concerned. But normally, in the case of me and you (again, I assume), text messages are never related deleted off of the device, even when you "delete" them. You are just removing the pointer that tells the code to have the message show up in your Messaging App. It may take months or it may never happen that the memory blocks holding the deleted text are finally overwritten.

    That is why it is never a great idea to donate old phones unless you completely reformat the device and return it to the factory setting. Short of that, almost any 13 year old on the web can obtain the app to retrieve old, deleted texts and email.

    Oh, and never, NEVER do your banking, investing, etc... from your phone. You might as well announce your login and account info to every non-personal Wi-Fi network you pass through.

    He is one pissed off dude who lost his business due to all the innuendo and is now suing those who have defamed him.

    lol Fox News literally tells people that the guy is a clown and not to take him seriously, yet one contingent is determined to act as if anything that comes out of his mouth has validity. MAGA nation, do better.

    So your point is that not all Trump supporters are treasonous bastards, just some?

    Which one wasn’t a treasonous bastard? The old guy said “we need to go into the Capitol” and the younger guy nodded and yelled something that sounded like “let’s go”?

    Agreed. I was just trying to figure out the intended point of the post. So far the only situation of where I see Trump supporters disagree is when Trump supporters leave the cult and finally see the truth.
