Mark Meadows has told investigators he could not recall President Trump ever ordering the declassification of broad sets of materials before leaving office, sources say.
In this April 30, 2020, file photo, White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows listens as President Donald Trump meets with New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, D.C.
Multiple sources tell ABC News Meadows acknowledged to investigators that he asked that the paragraph be changed, and that it would be "problematic" had Trump had such a document in his possession. Sources tell ABC News that Meadows told special counsel investigators that he did not discuss making those edits with Trump.
According to sources familiar with the matter, Meadows told investigators that he had heard the term "standing order" used during his time in the White House, but not in relation to the declassification process. The statement claimed the DOJ and the special counsel "have resorted to selectively leaking incomplete information that lacks proper context because they know they can't win inside a courtroom, so now they are trying to deceive Americans through the court of public opinion," adding that "This witch-hunt is nothing more than a desperate attempt to interfere in the 2024 election as President Trump dominates the polls and is the only person who will take back the White House.
