The Nazis are coming for everyone

It just gets worse and worse.
Following a complaint from Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is investigating whether the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) violated the law by deleting records of immigrant families split at the border.

CREW’s July 6 complaint followed a report in the New York Times that “[r]ecords linking children to their parents have disappeared, and in some cases have been destroyed, according to two officials of the Department of Homeland Security, leaving the authorities struggling to identify connections between family members.” In hundreds of cases, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents allegedly deleted the initial records in which parents and children were listed together as a family.

What reason can they possibly give?

On the other hand, why should we think one Trump administration agency would make an honest investigation into the craven acts of two others?
