The Signal App usage approved by the White House was part of Project 2025 they planned to use non-governmental chat apps like Signal for that very reason so as to get around archiving laws like The Federal Records Act and the Presidential Records Act on purpose so that they could claim that there are no preserved records to have to turn over when Freedom of Information Act requests come in from the media or any investigatory bodies.

They clearly are showing premeditated intentions to violate the laws and will continue to violate those laws because this is the most lawless administration in our nations history and they have no intent to change any of that. They believe that the Executive has the only authority and that they are not bound by anything such as following spending appropriations by Congress, or interpreting the laws based on courts only Trump can decide how to interpret laws or how money can be spent
