obama, page-2

Surprise !!

GP reposting Fake News from 2019 plus some 2022 spin is still Fake News.

"On Friday, Trump put out a statement claiming that his presidential predecessor, Barack Obama, also took plenty of documents with him when he left the White House: “President Barack Hussein Obama kept 33 million pages of documents, much of them classified. How many of them pertained to nuclear? Word is, lots!”

The National Archives and Records Administration responded a few hours later, explaining how presidential libraries work.

The agency explained that it “assumed exclusive legal and physical custody” of the records when Obama left office, as outlined by the Presidential Records Act.

“NARA moved approximately 30 million pages of unclassified records to a NARA facility in the Chicago area where they are maintained exclusively by NARA,” it added. “Additionally, NARA maintains the classified Obama Presidential records in a NARA facility in the Washington, DC, area.

As required by the PRA, former President Obama has no control over where and how NARA stores the Presidential records of his Administration.”
