/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

/1🚨 VICTORY — ATF REVERSES UNLAWFUL POLICY 🔄

The Biden-Harris ATF has reversed its unlawful “zero-tolerance” policy that allowed the agency to revoke federal firearms licenses (FFL) over minor paperwork errors, following AFL and @TPPF’s lawsuit.
/2 Historically, FFL holders were required to “willfully” violate the Gun Control Act (GCA) to lose their licenses.

This required intentional and reckless disregard for the GCA’s requirements in filling out the federal form.
/3 In 2021, ATF issued a punitive and unlawful policy redefining “willfulness” to allow the federal government to revoke FFLs for typographical or inadvertent errors and minor violations. Image

AFL has launched a multi-pronged initiative to hold elected officials in sanctuary jurisdictions across the country accountable for violating federal immigration laws. Image
/2 As part of AFL’s initial response to leftist elected officials and organizations’ plans to interfere with the federal enforcement of our immigration laws, we have:

➡️ Launched “Sanctuary Strongholds,” an interactive website resource providing insight into sanctuary jurisdictions nationwide and contact information for elected officials violating federal law.

➡️ Filed a Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) petition to increase transparency into crimes committed by illegal aliens against women and children.

➡️ Filed investigative requests with 17 key states and cities across the U.S. to expose the individuals and organizations actively undermining federal immigration enforcement and the rule of law.
/3 AFL has notified 249 elected officials in sanctuary jurisdictions across the U.S. of the legal consequences they could face for interfering with or impeding federal immigration law enforcement efforts and for concealing, harboring, or shielding illegal aliens. Image

/1🚨 VICTORY 🚨

A federal court has denied the Stanford Internet Observatory, Atlantic Council, and Aspen Institute’s attempt to dismiss AFL’s class action lawsuit for conspiring with the U.S. government to conduct targeted surveillance and censor conservative political speech. Image
Image
/2 On May 2, 2023, AFL filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of Jill Hines, co-director of Health Freedom Louisiana, and Jim Hoft, founder of The Gateway Pundit, against entities associated with the so-called “Election Integrity Partnership” and the “Virality Project.”
/3 The lawsuit alleges that these academic institutions, nonprofits, and researchers conspired with the federal government to surveil and censor conservative political speech regarding COVID-19 and elections on social media platforms.

/1🚨 BREAKING: NEW DOCS EXPOSE U.S. GOVERNMENT CENSORSHIP ACTIVITIES

AFL has obtained new documents revealing that the U.S. government weaponized the homeland security apparatus & coordinated with the Censorship Industrial Complex & foreign authorities to censor COVID-19 speech. Image
/2 Through our litigation against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), AFL obtained a previously unreleased document titled “COVID-19 Countering Foreign Influence Task Force Reporting and Analysis.”
/3 The internal CISA Countering Foreign Influence Task Force (CFITF) report from 2020 is marked “FOUO//FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” and states that “online misinformation erode[s] public confidence in yet to be developed COVID-19 vaccine.” Image

/1‼️NEW INVESTIGATION‼️

AFL is investigating whether the Loudoun County School Board and Former FBI Deputy Director Andy McCabe played a role in AG Merrick Garland’s October 4 memo mobilizing federal counter-terrorism resources against concerned parents at school board meetings. Image
/2 In 2020, parents in Loudoun County, Virginia, began speaking out against a variety of issues, including school closures, Critical Race Theory (CRT) curriculum, transgender bathroom and locker room policies, and the politicization of the Loudoun County School Board.
/3 In March 2021, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office opened a criminal investigation into a private Facebook group called “The Anti-Racist Parents of Loudoun County.”

Members of the group — which included six school board members, the Commonwealth Attorney, and a member of the Board of Supervisors — discussed targeting parents who spoke out at school board meetings against school closures and CRT in Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS).

Later, the FBI launched a parallel probe into the matter.Image
