/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🚨NEW — The Eleventh Circuit should affirm Judge Cannon’s ruling and order the destruction of Volume II of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL investigation into President Trump. Image
/2 AFL’s amicus brief, filed in United States v. Knight First Amendment Institute, argues that because Volume II is the product of an unconstitutional investigation, it is not subject to the Federal Records Act and therefore does not need to be preserved under those provisions.
/3 AFL also argues that even if Volume II is subject to the Federal Records Act, it would still qualify for authorized disposition under the Records Disposal Act, and its disclosure would be prohibited by the Privacy Act of 1974.

/2 The documents expose extensive coordination between Willis’s office, the Biden administration’s DOJ, the White House, and Democrats on the J6 Select Committee as they pursued their criminal case against President Trump over challenges to Georgia’s 2020 election results.
/3 The records reveal what appears to be unprecedented federal assistance to a local partisan prosecution:

President Biden personally waived former Trump administration officials’ executive privilege, allowing Fulton prosecutors to interview Trump before a state grand jury. Image
