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.

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL just filed a new lawsuit against HHS and CMS to expose the architects behind a Biden-era organ transplant policy that financially rewards higher transplant volume and prioritizes race in transplant decisions. Image
/2 Last week, AFL filed a lawsuit to determine who within the Biden Administration was behind its race-based organ transplant policy.

This new lawsuit seeks to uncover the outside influencers who shaped the program, and why.
/3 The lawsuit targets the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for failing to produce records tied to a federal transplant program that rewards hospitals for increasing kidney transplant volume and embeds race into the process.

/1🚨VICTORY — AFL DEFEATED Maricopa County’s attempt to hijack County Recorder Justin Heap’s election integrity lawsuit and block us from representing him.

An Arizona court fully rejected the blatant power grab.

Our lawsuit against Maricopa County will now proceed. Image
/2 After Recorder Heap chose AFL to represent him in a lawsuit against the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell filed another lawsuit against him, claiming that she had the right to select his attorney, and she did not want AFL to represent him.
/3 In its ruling, the Maricopa County Superior Court held that Arizona law does not give the county attorney authority to control a county officer’s legal representation.

/1🚨VICTORY — AFL has BROKEN Nashville’s years-long stonewalling over the Covenant School shooter’s “manifesto.”

A Tennessee appeals court REJECTED Nashville’s attempt to withhold records related to the shooting and keep the public in the dark. Image
/2 The ruling from the Court of Appeals of Tennessee at Nashville reverses most of a lower court decision that allowed the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County (Metro) to withhold the shooter’s “manifesto” in full.
/3 The court’s ruling made clear that government agencies cannot rely on sweeping legal theories to justify total secrecy, and must instead conduct a record-by-record review, redacting only what is lawfully protected and releasing the rest under Tennessee’s Public Records Act.

/1🏛️NEW SCOTUS BRIEF — 

AFL filed a brief on behalf of @tedcruz, @Jim_Jordan, and 26 members of Congress urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold President Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship and restore the Fourteenth Amendment’s original meaning. Image

/3 Executive Order 14160 restores the original meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause, which the lower courts wrongly blocked by expanding birthright citizenship beyond what the U.S. Constitution allows.
