The Secret Service has no new Jan. 6 texts to give to Congress,

Rep. Stephanie Murphy, D-Fla., who serves on the Jan. 6 panel, said Tuesday on MSNBC that the committee "did not receive the additional text messages that we were looking for."

 

The Secret Service has no new text messages related to the Jan. 6 attack to hand over to the special House committee investigating the Capitol riot, a source familiar with the matter told NBC News on Tuesday.

 

The news comes in the wake of an inspector general informing the committee that the Secret Service had deleted text messages from Jan. 5 and 6, 2021. The committee issued a subpoena for those records last week.

 

The Secret Service plans to do a “forensic examination” of agents’ phones identified in the inspector general’s report, the source said, but added that the agency does not expect this will yield relevant emails or other records.

 

The Washington Post first reported that the Secret Service had no new text messages to turn over to Congress. The Jan. 6 panel had given the Secret Service until Tuesday morning to turn over the text messages it had subpoenaed.

 

“We received a letter today that did provide us with a lot of documents and some data. However, we did not receive the additional text messages that we were looking for,” Rep. Stephanie Murphy, D-Fla., a member of the Jan. 6 panel, said on MSNBC.
