U.S. Secret Service employees were reminded by email to preserve records on their cell phone before they were replaced, according to a new report.
A senior official with the agency told NBC News that employees received two email reminders about preserving the records on their phones, including text messages before they were "restored to factory settings" as part of a planned reset and replacement program in January 2021.
The texts were lost during the agency-wide reset on Jan. 27, 2021, which came 11 days after Congress requested the communications from Jan. 6 and the day before, and the Secret Service said it was able to retrieve one in response to the House select committee's subpoena.
The agency vowed to conduct a forensic search for any other records, but indicated those messages were not likely to be recovered.
Secret Service agents were with Trump during the day of the uprising, and were also with vice president Mike Pence, who went into hiding at the Capitol after pro-Trump rioters called for him to be hanged.
On June 29 a former White House staffer told the House January 6 investigation that Trump had attempted to force the Secret Service to take him to the Capitol to join his supporters on that day.
"The Department notified us that many US Secret Service (USSS) text messages, from January 5 and 6, 2021, were erased as part of a device replacement program," Cuffari wrote in the letter first reported by The Intercept and later published by Politico.

Right, who cares about the dead, wounded and maimed, they are merely road kill to you. Who cares about an attempt to subvert our government, you are thrilled with that. We have no more to discuss.

one trump supporter died from violence perpetrated by capitol police.
Democrats attacked election integrity and make a farce out of our elections.
Then they make a farce of the impeachment process with two failed impeachments and now an INQUISITION over Trump.
Then they make a mockery of our Supreme Court system and threaten to stack it with like-minded leftist idiots.
Then they make a mockery of the Legislature and threaten to destroy the filibuster 60 vote requirement in the Senate.
Now, they attack the Secret Service.
You just cannot find a more destructive, mindless, dishonest party than the Democratic Party of Lying Jackasses.
How many capitol police were killed, wounded, or permanently maimed?
5 died and 140 were injured!
none died from violence, except for the trumper girl.
When you illegally break into a building, you deserve the consequences. No different that if someone broke into your home, one night. Just how nice to them are you going to be?
