The National Archives and Records Administration doesn't currently have an Archivist. Trump fired the previous head a week and a half ago. The deputy head then retired over the weekend. It is currently sort of headed by Marco Rubio. He put Jim Byron, the President & CEO of the Richard Nixon Foundation in charge of it part time.

Trump seems to have it out for NARA since they originally reported the missing classified documents that Trump refused to return. I would not expect records to be kept in the manner they have been in previous administrations.
