House Speaker Mike Johnson has ordered the entire Biden administration to preserve all records and documents as the transition to the Trump administration intensifies. On Tuesday, House Republicans, including Speaker Johnson and other GOP leaders, sent letters to all 18 federal departments, demanding the preservation of documents and communications. This move, aimed at preventing outgoing Biden-Harris administration officials from deleting or destroying records, signals potential future investigations into the Biden administration's policies and actions.
