THREAD — America First Legal sued the National Archives to obtain the Burisma records from Biden’s time as VP.

As a result of that litigation, we obtained a trove of new docs from the archives directly linking Joe Biden to Hunter’s profiteering in Ukraine.

Follow along ⤵️
/2 Despite Joe Biden’s assertions that he had no involvement with Hunter’s appointment to Burisma, he signed off on the official statement in response to questions from reporters about whether Hunter’s position undermined the VP’s credibility in pushing anti-corruption measures. Image
/3 Eric D. Schwerin, Hunter’s associate at Rosemont Seneca Advisors, LLC, corrected typos in Vice President Biden’s official statement. Image
/4 The VP’s office connected reporters (who were writing about Hunter’s appointment to Burisma) to Amos Hochstein, the “point” person for International Energy Affairs at the U.S. Department of State, to provide a “unique and valuable perspective” on the relationships in Ukraine.
/5 Wall Street Journal journalist Paul Sonne reached out to the office of the Vice President regarding whether Hunter’s involvement with Zlochevsky at Burisma would undermine the Vice President’s message on Ukraine. Image
/6 Office of the Vice President connected the Wall Street Journal to Amos Hochstein.

Amos Hochstein is, according to Politico, “the most influential Joe Biden adviser that most people don’t know about.” According to Axios, he is “one of President Biden’s closest confidants.” Image
/7 According to @ChuckGrassley and @RonJohnsonWI committees’ staff report, then-U.S. Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs Amos Hochstein raised concerns with VP Biden and Hunter that Hunter’s position on Burisma’s board enabled Russian disinformation… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/8 However, Hochstein testified to the committees that he did not recommend that Hunter leave Burisma’s board because he did not “believe that was my place to have that discussion, one way or the other.”
/9 Jim Risen, New York Times journalist, was also working on a story related to Vice President Biden’s trip to Ukraine and Hunter Biden’s role with Burisma Holdings and reached out to the Office of the Vice President. Image
/10 After providing him with the official statement signed off by Joe Biden, the Office of the Vice President recommended he speak with Amos Hochstein, “the State Department point on International Energy Affairs.” Image
/11 Instead of answering the question from the New York Times regarding whether Hunter had ever traveled with Vice President Biden to Ukraine, the Office of the Vice President urged the New York Times not to publish embarrassing details from Hunter’s record. Image
/12 The Office of the Vice President also worked hand in glove with Rosemont Seneca in response to press inquiries, including the story about Hunter Biden’s Ashley Madison account.
/13 Eric D. Schwerin, Hunter’s associate at Rosemont Seneca Advisors, LLC, fielded press inquiries on behalf of both Hunter and former President Kwasniewski, who were board members of Burisma, and coordinated with the Office of the Vice President. Image
/14 Inquiries about an Ashley Madison account registered with Hunter Biden’s email were fielded by official statements from both the Office of the Vice President and Rosemont Seneca Advisors, LLC. ImageImage
/15 The records include an email from then-U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie L. Yovanovitch to, among others, Victoria Nuland (currently the Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs) at the Department of State, Anna Makanju in VP Biden’s Office, and Eric Ciaramella – the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
/16 In an email prepared by a Ukranian public relations and political intelligence firm called “lbicompany,” Yovanovitch reported the following: Image
/17 Given the evidence that the VP Biden was signing off on statements concerning his son’s involvement with Burisma and that Obama officials were aware of Burisma’s alleged activities, it appears that former President Trump’s concerns about Biden family corruption were shared.
/18 The apparent failure of federal authorities to open or pursue appropriate criminal inquiries raises troubling concerns about the poisoning of our justice system with political agendas.
/19 These documents also take on heightened significance given escalating military conflict in Ukraine.

America First Legal will continue to release more documents as they are obtained as a result of our litigation.

“A pro-Trump legal group founded by White House aide Stephen Miller is suing Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts…

The lawsuit was filed by America First Legal.” Image
“The complaint accuses both the U.S. Judicial Conference and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts of performing certain regulatory actions that go beyond the scope of resolving cases or controversies, or administratively supporting those actions, which they argue are the ‘core functions’ of the judiciary.”Image
“It also argues that records held by the Roberts-led U.S. Judicial Conference should therefore be subject to the Freedom of Information Act requests, or FOIA requests, as a result.” Image

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL filed a federal civil rights complaint with HHS calling for an investigation into Henry Ford Health for illegal race and sex-based discrimination throughout its entire system — in patient care, hiring, education, and research — all funded by American taxpayers. Image
/2 AFL recently exposed Harvard’s use of federal dollars to push DEI ideology in healthcare.

Henry Ford Health (HFH) has engaged in similar discriminatory behavior on American taxpayers’ dime.

At HFH, DEI isn’t in the margins — it’s central to how the entire system operates…
/3 Since 2021, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has awarded nearly $1 BILLION in taxpayer funds to Henry Ford Health for programs that embed race and sex preferences into nearly every aspect of medical care — affecting who gets an organ transplant, which doctors get hired, and how residents are trained.

This is identity politics with a federal stamp of approval and possible life-or-death consequences.

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL is suing the Judicial Conference and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts to enforce lawful oversight, expose leftist lawfare, and deliver accountability. Image
/2 AFL’s lawsuit arises from Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests for communications between the Judicial Conference, the Administrative Office, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, and Representative Hank Johnson regarding Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.
/3 Both the Judicial Conference and the Administrative Office denied AFL’s FOIA requests, claiming they “are not subject to FOIA” because they are protected by FOIA’s carve-out for “courts of the United States.”
