My internet's been down most of the day. And looking back on my posts, JFC the typos.
But wanted to add that this is the start of the PRA, setting forth definitively that presidential records belong to the government, meaning the American people, and not to trump or anyone else who occupied the executive branch for a few years.
§2202. Ownership of Presidential records
The United States shall reserve and retain complete ownership, possession, and control of Presidential records; and such records shall be administered in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
The PRA then goes on to delineate when the archivist can release Presidential Records and procedures for current and former presidents to assert privilege to stop the archivist from releasing Presidential Records. Nothing in the PRA suggests that a former president could assert executive privilege to stop the executive from retrieving these records. In fact, the first section of the PRA specifies that the government shall retain complete ownership, control and possession of those records, and trump plainly has violated the PRA.
