/1 We sent a FOIA to the National Archives for records related to Obama Foundation’s possession of presidential records & an apparent $3.3M dollar transfer from the Obama Foundation to NARA to move the records from the Foundation’s private facility to a NARA-controlled facility. ImageImageImage
/2 On September 21, 2018, more than a year after former President Barack Obama left the White House, NARA and the Obama Foundation entered into a Letter of Intent (LOI) to allow the Obama Foundation to maintain possession of presidential records for the purpose of digitizing them… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
/3 According to the LOI, the Obama Foundation had kept presidential records—including classified records—at a private facility in Hoffman Estates, IL, but NARA would eventually move the records to NARA-controlled facilities, “that conform with the agency’s archival storage… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/4 On February 15, 2019, NARA and the Obama Foundation entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) further detailing their roles and responsibilities to complete the Digitization Project.

The 2019 MOU confirmed that those records were in fact moved from the Obama… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
/5 However, it’s unclear whether the Obama Foundation’s private facility had also conformed with NARA’s “archival storage standards.”

Instead, it’s likely that the Obama Foundation had illegally stored classified Presidential records in its private facility in Hoffman Estates,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
/6 Furthermore, the Obama Foundation provided NARA with $3,300,000 as part of this deal. For one, the Antideficiency Act prohibits federal agencies from expending federal funds in advance or in excess of an appropriation.

At the very least, it presents the appearance of a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

/1🔎NEW — AFL has expanded its investigation into the City of Portland and the Portland Police Bureau.

We’re examining the bureau’s involvement with anti-ICE groups and Antifa — and whether it let radical demonstrators disrupt ICE operations, assault reporters, or shield Antifa. Image
/2 AFL has requested records to uncover how Portland officials may have enabled lawlessness — including by assisting anti-ICE groups in acquiring office space.
/3 This expands AFL’s ongoing investigation into the City of Portland, which previously uncovered its explicit inclusion of race as a central component of the city’s policing practices to achieve “equitable outcomes.”

/1🚨EXPOSED — New documents reveal that after Hamas terrorists’ October 7 attack, Biden’s DOJ DOWNPLAYED the surge in antisemitism across America — while giving the SPLC an OPEN LINE to steer federal civil-rights policy away from policing antisemitic violence. Image
/2 BEFORE OCTOBER 7, 2023:

Combating antisemitic violence was on DOJ’s agenda.

In December 2022, it was listed on the event memo for the Deputy Attorney General’s “Quarterly Civil Rights Organization Meeting,” lumped in with “Anti-LGBTQ+ Violence.” Image
/3 The agenda for the 2022 meeting included addressing “White Supremacy in Law Enforcement,” in addition to “Anti-LGBTQ+ Hate” and the SPLC’s perspective on hate crimes data. Image

/1🚨BREAKING — Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis didn’t dismantle its illegal “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” regime. 

Instead, they hid their DEI office on a restricted floor.

America First Legal found it.

🧵…. Image
/2 The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, once on the 1st floor of the North Medical Building — open and visible to the public — has been moved to the 12th floor of the Mid Campus Center, a restricted-access floor omitted from the university’s official floor plan. Image
/3 An office built on “equity and inclusion” now operates behind locked doors, inaccessible to the public, the students, and the community it claims to represent.

We’d ask what WashU is hiding — but we already know. Image

/1🚨HUGE — The University of Virginia has agreed to DISMANTLE its illegal DEI infrastructure following a months-long federal civil rights investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice and a federal civil rights complaint from America First Legal. Image
/2 The agreement requires UVA to end race-, sex-, and identity-based discrimination across its operations, report compliance data through 2028, and certify in writing quarterly that every department is in full compliance with federal civil rights laws.
/3 This action follows AFL’s extensive investigation and subsequent federal civil rights complaint calling for enforcement against UVA’s discriminatory practices.

AFL exposed UVA’s unlawful attempts to preserve and rebrand DEI under euphemisms, proving the university’s so-called “reforms” were cosmetic.

/1🚨ELECTION INTEGRITY WIN🚨

Texas just discovered THOUSANDS of potential noncitizens on its voter rolls and launched a statewide verification process to remove ineligible voters.

This is exactly what AFL’s Election Integrity Action Plan urged states to do last year.

🧵👇 Image
/2 Last year, AFL sent an Election Integrity Action Plan to all 50 states — a roadmap explaining how to use existing federal law to verify citizenship.

Under 8 U.S.C. §§ 1373 and 1644, states can work with the Department of Homeland Security to confirm a voter’s citizenship.
/3 Using tools outlined in AFL’s Election Integrity Action Plan, Texas cross-checked state voter data against federal immigration records — and found over 2,700 potential noncitizens registered to vote.

/1🏛️NEW BRIEF —

AFL filed an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to overrule Humphrey’s Executor and uphold President Trump’s constitutional authority to direct and remove executive officials. Image
/2 AFL, in partnership with Mitchell Law PLLC, filed a brief in Trump v. Slaughter, asking the Court to restore the President’s constitutional control of the Executive Branch.
/3 For nearly ninety years, the Court’s 1935 decision in Humphrey’s Executor v. United States (Humphrey’s Executor) has stripped presidents of control over so-called “independent” agencies like the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) — allowing unelected bureaucrats to wield executive power without accountability to the American people.
