“The Justice Department this week rebuffed a request from the House Oversight Committee for more details about the 15 boxes of White House records that former president Donald Trump improperly removed to Mar-a-Lago, hinting in a letter that an ongoing investigation prevents the department from doing so,” the Washington Post reports.

1. How convenient.

The House has secure rooms, and procedures for those with clearance to deal with classified topics.

Hard to imagine the DoJ doesn't also. Committee members with clearance should be allowed to find out what the documents are.

2. More like 'necessary,' imo.

Opening all that stuff to who knows how many people might seek to look would not be a good idea.

3. Agreed

Besides, his taking the documents might have nothing to do with the 1/6 insurrection.

4. I believe Oversight and not 1/6 Committee was the one requesting the docs NT
