Trump promises to replace national archivist after the agency's role in documents case against him
President-elect Donald Trump is promising to replace the head of the National Archives, thrusting the agency back into the political spotlight after his mishandling of sensitive documents led to a federal indictment. “We will have a new archivist," Trump told radio host Hugh Hewitt on Monday. The agency piqued Trump's ire after it alerted the Department of Justice about potential problems with Trump’s handling of classified documents in early 2022.
