Trump’s White House Ordered To Hand Over Secret Records

Donald Trump has been ordered by a Washington D.C. court to preserve tranches of documents from his time in power.

The Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel published an opinion stating that the Presidential Records Act, designed to ensure key government documents are preserved, was unconstitutional because it encroached on the White House’s “independence and autonomy.”

But U.S. District Judge John D. Bates said he disagreed on Wednesday, ordering several executive offices to comply with the act and keep all relevant documents.
