The National Archives says it recently retrieved 15 boxes of presidential records from Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club that were improperly removed from the White House.
The chairman of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol said Monday it was "too early" to know if the probe has been impacted by the discovery that Donald Trump took boxes of presidential records with him when he left the White House last year.
National Archives officials confirmed Monday that the agency recently retrieved 15 boxes of presidential records from the former president's Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida that were "improperly" removed after the end of his time in the White House.
According to National Archivist David Ferriero, representatives for Trump are "continuing to search" for more records that may have been improperly taken from the White House.
Sources tell ABC News that the documents, which were retrieved last month, included communications between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jung Un, as well as a letter from former President Barack Obama to Trump that was left as per custom ahead of Trump's inauguration.
