As Lawrence O'Donnell pointed out tonight, James Murray is a Trump guy, and has done a really good job of keeping his name out of the news, even though he oversaw the purging of the January 5 & 6 texts at the Secret Service. Trump appointed him head of the Secret Service in 2019, after Murray proved his loyalty to Trump. He needs to be subpoenaed to explain what happened to those January 5 & 6 texts.
The irony is Snap, the parent company of Snapchat, has hired James Murray, to start on August 1, 2022, as the companys chief security officer---after he oversaw the loss of the most important texts in Secret Service history. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/snap-james-murray-secret-service-snapchat-1235176832/

James Murray may be low profile but I knew his name and that he had resigned.
Since he's a Psycho's guy that means he cares noting for his country or the Planet.. just Fascism Fascism, Fascism.
And, yes he does need to get hauled in before the Seekers of Justice.. the J6C.
Focus!

(18,641 posts)I've suspected all along that the Sec Serv used an unapproved app that deletes messages after they've been read. That's why they are not available. They did it so the messages wouldn't be archived anywhere.
A government MAGA IT guy could have installed Snapchat, illegally, on the SS phones.
Now Snapchat is giving him a job as a reward.
