Trump Forces Resignations in National Archives Administration

The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump will compel senior officials in the National Archives and Records Administration to resign following the recent dismissal of Trump appointee Colleen Shogan, the archivist last week. It is noted that the National Archives Administration is responsible for overseeing government records in the United States.

Trump's criticism of this agency is due to its handling of classified documents at the beginning of 2022, after the end of his first term, and Trump has repeatedly criticized this agency. According to informed sources and media, it is expected that the White House will announce its plans to appoint new leadership for the National Archives and Records Administration in the near future.
