DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION:

My reporter Brett Murphy obtained a remarkable directive to folks at USAID: Empty the safes with the classified and personnel records and then,

"Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break."

The email came from from the agency's acting executive secretary.

He asked Kel McClanahan, a national security attorney, if this was legal. "No it is not," he said. It breaks the Federal Records Act. "Classified records are still federal records."
