visiting hurricane damage regions, there are no paper towel rolls being tossed as the 11th hour gets underway on this monday night. good evening once again, i m stephanie ruhle, and a case against the former handling of white house documents appears to be growing by the day. tonight, reporting from the washington post and the new york times, seems to provide the justice department more potential evidence. both papers reporting the back in february, one of trump s lawyers refused his clients request to tell the national archives that everything had been returned. the post returns this. the lawyer declined because, he was not sure the statement was true, according to people familiar with the matter. the paper reports that that lawyer was alex cannon, who is responsible for the transfer of 15 boxes of presidential records, from mar-a-lago to the national archives back in january. he is the very same alex cannon who testified to the january 6th committee, that he told white house
