One of the many cases being thrown at Donald Trump involves official records. A leftist special counsel from the DOJ has accused Trump of illegally holding onto records from his presidency.
Democrats are using this case as one of many to derail his return to the White House. Their argument is that Trump is not above the law and must be punished for holding onto these documents.
Now, a former Trump ally appears to be turning the tables on the Biden administration. Leading a nonprofit legal group, he has dropped a lawsuit against one of Biden’s top agencies. And how this case shakes out could upend Special Counsel Smith’s case against Trump.
From Fox News:
In a sweeping complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the America First Legal Foundation (AFL), the group headed by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller, accused the Department of Health and Human Services of regularly deleting official emails and violating the Federal Records Act. The group also named the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), which is tasked with overseeing the unlawful destruction of federal records, as a defendant.
America First Legal Foundation, led by Stephen Miller, has sued the Department of Health and Human Services. The lawsuit claims the agency regularly deletes emails in violation of the Federal Records Act. It appears the lawsuit has the goal of bringing to light this shocking discrepancy in federal law.
This legal group has claimed that federal employees are deleting “tens of thousands” of records yearly—without authorization. While Biden is trying to convict Trump of holding onto records, no accountability is being shown to government employees who are violating the same laws, but do not have the authority to do what they are doing.
Trump maintains he had a right to hold onto those records because he declassified them while president. Despite this, the DOJ has railroaded him, in what appears to be an attempt to stop his reelection.
But if this lawsuit works in AFL’s favor, it means Trump can’t rightly be prosecuted—when so many federal workers are doing much worse. It remains to be seen what will come of this lawsuit. But if the courts are willing to hear arguments, it could have long-reaching repercussions.
Key Takeaways:
- A former Trump associate has sued Biden’s HHS over destroyed records.
- The America First Legal Foundation accused federal employees of violating the law by deleting government records.
- This case could affect Trump’s case revolving around records kept at his home.
