The new House Republican leadership has ruled out making the legislative investigation into classified material found in the search of former President Donald Trump’s Florida mansion a priority issue for the new Congress that emerged after the midterm elections.
Kentucky Rep. Jim Comer, who is expected to chair the House Oversight Committee, has said that while they have requested information about the status of that investigation, it «will not be a priority.»
«We’re waiting to see what comes out of it,» Comer said on CNN, who said he is not «very interested» in the «dramas» of the previous administration, in relation to the latest steps of this legislative committee.
In parallel to the investigation launched by the U.S. Department of Justice, a special committee of the House of Representatives is conducting its own to know the scope of the sensitive documentation that was in the hands of Trump.
A few months ago, Democrats asked the National Archives to certify that Trump had turned over all presidential records that were «illegally» removed from White House offices.
