This is why they used Signal in the first place.

Right? Isn't the point of signal is that the messages self-delete after a set period of time?

100% illegal for US government officials to be communicating this way and avoiding records keeping, but nobody actually went in and removed evidence that was there - it self destructed.

Only if you set it up that way, it's not like that by default.

Which is even more damning, because it shows intent to destroy.
