Between capitol hill and doj are around the very vocal frustrations and comments from members of the 1/6 committee about the status enforcing those subpoenas, specifically from many meadows, but i suppose we ll see what that i do with mr. dan scavino and peter navarro. this letter had that tone. the congresswoman s letter, if you read it that way, is voicing frustration and exasperation with doj. yeah. and just for context s sake, the national archives had sent the committee a let that are we cite in our reporting on march 28th saying that they could not provide the oversight committee with any of the materials, which includes a detailed inventory of what is in those 15 boxes because of the doj. this letter back to the doj from carolyn maloney clearly expressed those frustrations
That arose out of this march 28th letter. but this seems to be a reoccurring theme here lately. members of congress being extraordinarily frustrated with the justice department, that they thought would be a little more on their side in a post-trump era. but the argument we ve heard from justice department officials all i long has been this idea that, you know, it s a very high bar to actually charge the former president with vie lating the presidential records act. but what we ve heard counter to that time and time again is that the justice department still should investigate this. otherwise, you know, what is the point of having presidential records statutes to begin with. it would further encourage people like president trump to just completely and flagrantly disregard a lot of these mechanisms and processes that are in place for the benefit of the american public. an important development. thank you for join is delivering us to talk about it today. the other big, huge story
