WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Archives and Records Administration informed lawmakers that a number of electronic communications from Trump White House staffers remain missing, nearly two years since the administration was required to turn them over.
The nation’s record-keeping agency, in a letter Friday to the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, said that despite an ongoing effort by staff, electronic communications between certain unidentified White House officials were still not in their custody.
“While there is no easy way to establish absolute accountability, we do know that we do not have custody of everything we should,” Debra Steidel Wall, the acting U.S. archivist, wrote in a letter to Oversight Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y.
The letter went on to specify that the National Archives would consult with the Justice Department about how to move forward and recover “the records unlawfully removed.”
Archives: Records from Trump WH staffers remain missing
It's mentally exhausting hearing about yet another abuse. There have been so many it's almost like Trump woke up each day and asked himself, "what law, rule, protocol, tradition can I break today?" It can only be explained by a complete distain for what has been expected of a prez for hundreds of years. Namely, fidelity to the country, self sacrifice, subjugating personal interests behind those of the people. Concepts completely foreign to Trump.
One wonders what is being covered up this time.
