The chairwoman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform has asked the National Archives and Records Administration to investigate whether former president Donald Trump is harbouring presidential records that should’ve been turned over to the archives when he left office in a storage unit where a search firm hired by his lawyers recently found two classified documents.
In a letter to acting Archivist of the United States Debra Wall, Representative Carolyn Maloney voiced concerns that Mr Trump’s storage unit and the other properties in New York and New Jersey that were combed through by a team charged with finding any national defence information contained there could still have “presidential records that were not the focus of the search and therefore have not been turned over to the federal government” stored there.
