to think it is. if trump is holding sensitive documents that the archives want, how could this play out legally? well, i think there is a process going on between the national archives and the trump folks. some of the documents have been turned over. i don t know enough details to understand why it s the case that not everything has been turned over. is there some argument to be made? is it unclear whether the documents are ones that were created after the presidency or not? i don t know. there doesn t seem to be a good explanation for it. and given the fact that a number of of the documents have been turned over, i can t give you an explanation as to why they all have not been. the january 6th committee looking for answers into gaps in the official white house call logs on january 6th. congressman jamie rascon saying this earlier tonight when asked if he believes they can get the president s cell phone records from that day. here it is. we don t know exactly why there is this
