/1 🚨THREAD — records obtained from our investigation into the circumstances surrounding the Mar-a-Lago raid further confirm that the FBI obtained access to these records through a “special access request” from the Biden White House on behalf of the DOJ.

https://t.co/O9fne5qRD1aflegal.org/america-first-…


/2 On August 8, 2022, the FBI conducted an unprecedented raid of Mar-a-Lago on the ground that potentially classified records existed there.

According to press reports, Biden Administration aides were surprised to hear of this development.
/3 However, the new records we obtained from our investigation into the circumstances of the Mar-a-Lago raid reveal the Biden White House & DOJ coordinated to obtain the Trump records and perhaps create a pretext for the law enforcement raid by way of a "special access request."
/4 What this means is that there are substantial discrepancies between what the Archives has told Congress and what appears in its internal communications...
/5 For example, Acting Archivist Debra Wall told @RepMikeTurner on August 16, 2022, that NARA "had not been involved in the DOJ investigation or any searches that it has conducted."
/6 This stunning revelation suggests that NARA was misleading Congress about the White House's role in the shocking raid of President Trump's home, and the fact that the Biden White House was acting "on behalf of" the DOJ raises significant legal concerns.
/7 The special access statute authorizes special access requests to an incumbent president ONLY when the records in question are needed for "the conduct of current business" of the White House...
/8 ...Providing documents to the DOJ for purposes of a criminal investigation is not the "current business" of the White House.
/9 Accordingly, America First Legal is
demanding NARA turn over records related to the Biden White House's involvement in the politically motivated raid of President Trump's
home. aflegal.org/america-first-…
/10 EMAIL HERE — Gary Stern, the National Archives’ General Counsel, confirms in an email obtained by America First Legal that “the Justice Department, via the Biden White House, had made the [special access] request,” regarding the documents at President Trump’s home, Mar-a-Lago

🚨BREAKING — AFL is taking Alvin Bragg back to court.

We just filed a new petition in the New York Supreme Court to EXPOSE his politically motivated prosecution of President Trump.

🧵👇 Image
/2 Last year, AFL filed a lawsuit against District Attorney Alvin Bragg over records requested from his office related to the prosecution of President Trump.

Bragg’s office has refused to provide the records and issued sweeping exemptions to keep the truth hidden.
/3 AFL requested the following records from Bragg’s office:

📄 Communications with the Biden-Harris campaign, the DNC, Color of Change, and CREW

📄 Documents and communications about fundraising tied to President Trump’s prosecution

📄 Documents and communications related to Alvin Bragg’s campaign and fundraising

📄 Communications with Judge Juan Merchan’s daughter and her political firm

📅 Alvin Bragg’s calendars

🚨BREAKING — AFL just sued the FDA for allegedly COVERING UP Biden-era records on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for children.

The FDA KNEW these drugs increase depression and suicide risks — and STILL pushed them on kids.

It’s been a year.

Parents deserve answers. Image
/2 On August 5, 2024, AFL filed a FOIA request for FDA records on off-label use of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for children.

The FDA acknowledged receipt and promised action.

Then, it went silent.
/3 The law gives agencies 20 days — plus an additional 10 days, if needed — to respond.

389 days later: no records, no answers, no transparency.

This isn’t bureaucratic delay — it’s lawlessness.

🚨BREAKING — AFL has filed a federal lawsuit against Shell USA, Inc. for allegedly orchestrating a racially discriminatory reorganization targeting white employees.

This is a major fight against DEI mandates gone wrong. Image
/2 The suit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, claims Shell’s radical diversity, equity, and inclusion policies violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.

Experienced security professionals with top credentials were pushed out to meet “diversity” quotas.
/3 AFL’s clients — loyal, high-performing employees — were forced to reapply for their own jobs, undergo in-person assessments, and compete against less qualified candidates just to “diversify” the workforce.

This isn’t fairness — it’s discrimination.

⚖️ JUSTICE WINS!

A New York appellate court threw out the $500M fine in Letitia James’s politically motivated civil fraud case against President Trump.

The court found it excessive and a violation of the Eighth Amendment.

AFL’s amicus brief was cited in the dissent. Image
/2 AFL, in partnership with Murray-Nolan Berutti LLC, filed an appellate amicus brief on behalf of the Job Creators Network Foundation.
/3 Our brief argued that the entire case against President Trump should be dismissed, warning that James’s lawsuit was wholly political, undermined the rule of law, and served as yet another example of weaponized lawfare against President Trump.

🚨🗳️ LITIGATION ALERT — AFL has filed two bombshell motions exposing Maricopa County’s shocking assault on election integrity.

Local officials are SABOTAGING Recorder Heap for protecting Arizona elections.

This is a direct attack on voters — and it threatens future elections. Image
/2 On June 12, 2025, AFL filed a lawsuit against Maricopa County to stop its illegal election power grab.

The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is actively weaponizing power to undermine Recorder @azjustinheap and hijack his election integrity efforts.
@azjustinheap /3 Shortly before Recorder Heap took office, the Board:

➡️ Seized control of the Recorder’s servers, databases, and websites

➡️ Removed nearly all his election IT staff

🚨🗳️ BREAKING — The U.S. Election Assistance Commission just opened a public comment period on AFL’s petition to REQUIRE PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP to vote.

Help us STOP noncitizen voting and secure OUR elections!

Submit your comment by October 20 ⬇️

🔗 regulations.gov/commenton/EAC-…Image
/2 The federal voter registration form currently relies on an “honor system.” 

People just check a box saying they’re a citizen. 

No proof required.

No verification required.

This is a LOOPHOLE that undermines trust in our elections.
/3 AFL’s petition calls for Documentary Proof of Citizenship (DPOC).

Voting is a sacred right for American citizens ONLY.

Requiring DPOC ensures fairness, uniformity, and integrity.

This is common sense!
