Paper Shredding Truck Appears Outside DOJ After Gaetz Nomination

Wendell Husebo 19 Nov 2024

A paper shredding truck was spotted on Tuesday outside the Justice Department, according to a photo from the Oversight Project.

The truck’s appearance suggests the agency is destroying sensitive paperwork before the Trump administration takes power.

“Today a paper shredding truck arrived,” the Oversight Project posted on X. “We have maintained a physical investigative presence by the @TheJusticeDept, which also is more convenient for cooperating sources.”

The sighting comes after President-elect Donald Trump nominated former Rep. Matt Gaetz last week as attorney general to clean up the bureaucracy. “Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans’ badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department,” Trump said in his announcement.

Trump transition adviser Mark Paoletta warned DOJ career attorneys last week that subverting, undermining, or sabotaging Trump’s incoming agenda will be cause for termination.

Paoletta cited examples of potential policies the DOJ might have to implement, such as deporting illegal aliens, securing the southern border, banning race-based affirmative action, investigating antisemitism, halting big tech censorship, and granting pardons and commutations to January 6 defendants.

One of Trump’s top priorities is to purge the federal government of rogue and corrupt actors within the administrative state. More on that priority is here.

Only one truck?  No worries, they've got a month or so to 'prepare' for Trump's transition.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Just a curiosity question, but why would the DOJ not have its own shredding capabilities? :shrug:

Volume and expediency.

They would bring in help if the volume of shredding had increased to massively above normal.

Also, bringing a 3rd party provides plausible deniability and a smoke screen against the National Archives and Records Administration, Government Accountability Office, and Offices of Inspector General.

Contractors will do what they have been contracted to do, without question and without hesitation.

Shredding documents internally would come under more scrutiny from more Civil Servants asking pesky questions and rattling off document retention and archiving laws, rules, and polciies.

If they need the shredding to be done quick, they bring in outside help.

They should have parked the truck at the loading dock to be less conspicuous, and to avoid becoming the fodder for Internet conspiracy theories.

There is a 30 HP industrial shredder in that truck and it's there so the occupants of the building can honestly say "WE didn't shred anything!" later.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

This is actually pretty humorous for anyone who works in the private sector, where we have been paperless (no printers/copiers/scanners/faxes) for years....
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Maybe that truck also has a hard drive "shredder" in it, too.
Can grind up physical drives into bits and pieces...
