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.

🚨NEW — AFL is demanding @CabCoSchools REPEAL its unlawful policy allowing biological males to use girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms.

Enough is enough. Image
Last week, AFL sent a letter on behalf of its clients to Cabarrus County Schools (CCS) in North Carolina, challenging its policy of allowing biological males to access female-designated restrooms, locker rooms, and changing areas.
AFL’s letter follows its earlier complaint with the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice, requesting a federal investigation into CCS for potential violations of Title IX.

On June 1, 2026, the ED announced that it had launched an investigation in response to AFL’s complaint.

🚨EXPOSED — New Biden-era DOJ records obtained by AFL reveal former Acting Associate AG Matthew Colangelo’s involvement in lawfare targeting President Trump before joining Alvin Bragg’s prosecution.

The records contradict claims by officials and the media that he was uninvolved. Image
Matthew Colangelo served as Acting Associate Attorney General and Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General — the third-highest ranking official at DOJ — from January 2021 through November 2022.
Colangelo then resigned to help Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg “jump-start” his investigation of President Trump.

Colangelo personally delivered the prosecution’s opening statement.

🚨EXPOSED — Illegal aliens have had free rein in Fairfax, Virginia.

AFL has uncovered documents showing that Fairfax has refused to honor HUNDREDS of ICE detainers on criminal illegal aliens over the past year and a half. Image
Releasing lawbreakers has consequences.

Below are some of the horrible crimes allegedly committed by illegal aliens in Fairfax who should have never been in the country — and who could have been deported if localities worked with ICE.

🧵
Abdul Jalloh:

➡️ From Sierra Leone
➡️ Entered the United States illegally in 2012 under Obama
➡️ Charged with stabbing 41-year-old Stephanie Minter to death on February 23, 2026, at a bus stop
➡️ Previously arrested more than 30 times without being deported Image

🏛️VICTORY: This week, SCOTUS issued its landmark decision in Trump v. Slaughter:

Officials who exercise the President’s executive power must be removable by him at will.

Statutory restrictions on the President’s removal of such officers VIOLATE the separation of powers. Image
AFL, alongside co-counsel Mitchell Law PLLC, filed an amicus brief in Slaughter, urging the Court to restore constitutional order by overruling Humphrey’s Executor v. United States (Humphrey’s Executor).
By overruling Humphrey’s Executor, the Court:

➡️Reaffirms the separation of powers
➡️Ends Congress’s unconstitutional interference in executive functions
➡️Returns accountability to the American people

🚨MAJOR VICTORY🚨

AFL and @KenPaxtonTX just secured a federal court order PERMANENTLY ENDING an illegal Biden-era backdoor amnesty program that allowed immigration judges to indefinitely freeze removal proceedings against illegal aliens. Image
Today, AFL and @TXAG filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas challenging the Biden Department of Justice’s “Administrative Closure Rule,” which allowed immigration judges to indefinitely pause immigration court cases against illegal aliens.
@TXAG The same day the lawsuit was filed, the parties reached a settlement, and the court entered a final consent judgment vacating the rule and permanently enjoining its enforcement.

An illegal rule that allowed illegal aliens to remain in the United States indefinitely is now dead.

🚨NEW: Ninth Circuit Grants Preliminary Injunction Blocking California’s Child Transition Secrecy Law

America First Legal and @SchaerrJaffeLlp just secured a huge win for parental rights — vindicating the rights of families fighting against California’s radical attempt to hide children’s “gender transitions” from parents.Image
2/ In City of Huntington Beach v. Newsom, the Ninth Circuit entered a preliminary injunction blocking key provisions of AB 1955.

This law forced schools to keep parents in the dark about their child’s sexual orientation, “gender identity,” or gender expression — unless the child consented. California tried to insert the State between parents and their kids.
3/ The court, reconsidering in light of the Supreme Court’s landmark Mirabelli v. Bonta decision, held that Plaintiff-Parents “very likely have standing” and that parents — not the State — have primary authority over the upbringing and education of their children.
