/1🔎BIDEN DOCS — New emails obtained from our lawsuit against the National Archives provide further evidence that Hunter Biden’s personal business activities comingled with Joe Biden’s official business, beginning in Vice President Biden’s first year in the White House.

READ ⤵️
/2 On May 18, 2009, Alan Hoffman, Deputy Chief of Staff to the Vice President, sent an email to Michael Mongan, Deputy Counsel to the Vice President, with the subject line: “FW: Ethiopia.”

Continue reading… Image
/3 …The email was withheld because its release “would disclose confidential advice between the President and his advisors, or between such advisors.”

More below… Image
/4 …However, we know from @ChuckGrassley and @SenRonJohnson joint committee majority staff report that Hunter was a Secret Service protectee on an official trip to Ethiopia in June 2009.
finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… ImageImage
/5 If Hunter’s trip to Ethiopia only involved his personal business with Seneca Global Advisors, Biden’s White House advisors’ discussion about Hunter’s trip would not have involved confidential advice to the Vice President.
/6 @ChuckGrassley and @SenRonJohnson supplemental report indicates that Hunter maintained an equity stake in Seneca Global Advisors according to financial documents relating to CEFC, the CCP-affiliated company Hunter had agreed to advise. finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… Image
/7 On May 22, 2009, Jennifer Prewitt emailed Hunter’s Rosemont Seneca business partner, Eric Schwerin, and CC’ed:

✔️Hunter Biden
✔️Nancy Massey (Office of the Vice President)
✔️Rob Walker (Biden family associate who received money from a Chinese energy company, and subsequently… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/8 The National Archives withheld this record in full because, allegedly, the record was a “personal record” that was “misfiled” according to the Presidential Records Act. Image
/9 While Hunter’s activities with Seneca Global Advisors, Rosemont Seneca, Rob Walker, and his financial advisor would seem “personal” in nature, the involvement of political appointees in the White House and DHS infer that Hunter’s activities were commingled with VP Biden’s… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
/10 …As such, the National Archives improperly withheld the record under the Presidential Records Act.
/11 On July 14, 2009, Hunter Biden’s business associate, Eric Schwerin, emailed Hunter and the VP’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Alan Hoffman, at his personal email address about “Mr. Gang's visit.”

NARA withheld the email in full because its release “would disclose confidential… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/12 On that day, China Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Qin Gang spoke at a press conference addressing China’s arrest of employees of Rio Tinto, the world's second-largest metals and mining corporation, for alleged bribery and espionage. Image
/13 Because the National Archives withheld the email in full, it is unclear what was communicated between Hunter’s private business associate and his father’s White House staff, and whether it was related to the topic addressed by Mr. Gang.

However, keep reading…
/14 According to the New York Times, Hunter Biden’s CCP-backed investment fund, Bohai Harvest RST (BHR), was heavily involved with financing China’s acquisition of mining interests around the world, presumably in competition with Rio Tinto. ImageImage
/15 According to documents obtained by the @GOPoversight, Eric Schwerin was the president of the since-dissolved investment fund Rosemont Seneca Partners, which, according to @ChuckGrassley @SenRonJohnson joint committee majority staff report, was merged with CCP-linked firm… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/16 So on the same day that a CCP official was addressing allegations of political retaliation against Rio Tinto, Hunter’s business partner involved with CCP-backed mining deals was reaching out to VP Biden’s Deputy Chief of Staff about that CCP official’s upcoming visit. Image
/17 Raising further concern, by applying a P5 exemption to the record, the National Archives indicates that it contains “confidential advice between the President and his advisors, or between such advisors.”
/18 If the National Archives is asserting that Eric Schwerin was an official advisor to VP Biden, that relationship has not been previously disclosed and raises the specter of serious ethics violations stemming from the conflict of interest. Alternatively, this is just another… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
/19 The National Archives continues to abuse the Presidential Records Act to unlawfully conceal these emails, and the evidence of the Biden family’s corruption, and AFL intends to challenge this improper concealment in court.

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL just filed a federal complaint with DOJ calling for enforcement action against Harvard Medical School for illegal DEI discrimination.

Once the gold standard of higher education, Harvard is now better known for defying the law and the Constitution…🧵 Image
/2 Harvard isn’t dismantling its DEI infrastructure as required by law — it’s rebranding the same discriminatory system under a new lexicon of euphemisms to evade it. Image
/3 Harvard’s “Office for Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Partnership” is now the “Office for Cultural and Community Engagement.”

The new label changes nothing — the office still promotes “inclusive excellence,” a framework designed to embed DEI into every level of an institution.Image

🚨EXPOSED — The NIH ended 4,400 Biden-era grants that injected race, gender ideology, and activism into taxpayer-funded science.

Now the Left is SUING to bring them back — calling it “discrimination” to end them.

Part 2 of “woke grants you didn’t know you were funding”…🧵 Image
/2 The Left is fighting to reinstate a $17.1 million NIH grant to Mount Sinai’s Icahn School of Medicine to implement illegal, race-based discrimination in academic medicine.

The school admits to embedding “inclusive excellence” (a euphemism for DEI) throughout its institutions — with a task force to “address racism,” recruitment pipelines for Black and Latino faculty, mandatory “bias training,” an Office for Gender Equity, an Institute for Health Equity Research, and a Center for Scientific Diversity.

There’s nothing “inclusive” about forcing Americans to fund discrimination that excludes certain racial groups.Image
/3 Biden’s HHS gave $24 million to Northwestern University for an HIV study on “young men who have sex with men” in Chicago — tracking sexual behavior, drug use, and “minority stressors.”

Launched in 2014 under Obama.
Renewed under Biden.
Terminated under President Trump.

Now the Left is suing to bring back the NIH’s version of California’s “train to nowhere.”Image

/1🚨CRACKER BARREL SERVING UP ILLEGAL DISCRIMINATION —

AFL just filed civil rights complaints calling for federal and state investigations into Cracker Barrel for unlawful discrimination based on race and sex in hiring and employment. Image
/2 Cracker Barrel rebranded its DEI website from “Diversity and Inclusion” to “Culture and Inclusion” — but continues to promote apparently unlawful practices.

The company offers employment benefits based on race or sex. Image
/3 Cracker Barrel promises to “attract, select, develop, and retain high-performing talent with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.” Image

🚨SMOKING GUN🚨

AFL has obtained new documents CONCLUSIVELY PROVING that AG Merrick Garland’s infamous Oct. 4 memo labeling concerned parents at school board meetings “domestic terrorists” was POLITICALLY ORCHESTRATED and DRIVEN by the Biden White House.

“WH has been in touch.” Image
/2 These new documents expose the Biden White House’s involvement in AG Garland’s memo targeting parents — and reveal that career lawyers at DOJ warned that there was no federal authority or legal basis to target these parents in the first place because their speech is protected by the First Amendment.
/3 The documents show that after receiving the National School Board Association (NSBA) memo, which called on DOJ to use the Patriot Act to prevent parents from objecting to mask mandates in schools and Critical Race Theory in the curriculum, DOJ’s political leadership worked to identify anything — any authority — they could use to bring the full weight of the Justice Department down on parents.Image

🚨 BREAKING: NPR’s GOVERNMENT-FUNDED DEI policies EXPOSED!

The Senate just voted to cut funding for NPR. Why should you care?

Among other things:

NPR admits to tracking the race of its employees and, incredibly, its SOURCES used to give you the ‘news.’

Your tax dollars are hard at work pushing an agenda, not reporting the news. 🧵Image
/2 Focused on “inclusive storytelling” (instead of “accurate reporting”), NPR tracks the demographics of its news sources in order to achieve its “newsroom mission” “to look and sound like America.”

THEY ARE RACIALLY BALANCING THEIR NEWS SOURCES! Image
/3 Translation: NPR is basing which stories it covers, runs, and airs on the basis of skin color and sex of the sources of their stories. But don’t just take our word for it. They openly admit it.

This News Source Tracking initiative appears to have resulted in a 16% drop in the number of white news sources since 2013 while black sources have been the primary beneficiary.Image

/1🚨🗳 BREAKING — AFL just filed a formal petition with the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections.

No more “honor system.”

No more loopholes.

Only U.S. citizens voting in U.S. elections. Image
/2 Federal law requires all states to use a single form for voter registration for federal elections.

This form, which the EAC is responsible for maintaining and amending, is required to collect the information necessary to “assess the eligibility of the applicant.” Image
/3 But the federal voter registration form doesn’t actually require any proof of citizenship…

It only requires applicants to check a box saying they are a U.S. citizen.

And it doesn’t require any verification that applicants are telling the truth. Image
