/1🚨BREAKING — As Congress weighs impeachment of Joe Biden, new documents we obtained from our lawsuit against the National Archives reveal evidence of:

🚨Influence peddling
🚨Corruption
🚨Ethical lapses

…all while Joe Biden was Vice President.

We have the receipts:
/2 On March 5, 2015, the Truman National Security Project President Michael Breen invited then-Vice President Biden to be the featured speaker at their annual conference.

At the time, Hunter Biden and Burisma lobbyist Sally Painter were on the Truman Project’s board. Image
/3 The problematic relationship between Hunter Biden and Painter, which the Truman Project never disclosed to the IRS, led to an administrative complaint. Image
/4 On March 7, 2015, Hunter Biden lobbied for his father to accept the invite via his scheduler in the Office of the Vice President. Image
/5 Vice President Biden agreed to keynote the Truman Project event after speaking with Kathy Chung, then-Vice President Biden’s scheduler and gatekeeper. According to the Washington Post, Chung got this job through Hunter Biden.
Image
Image
/6 The newly obtained records do not indicate that former Vice President Biden sought or obtained ethics counsel regarding the propriety of keynoting for an organization whose board included his son and other agents of Burisma. Image
/7 As the President of the Truman Center for National Policy, the Truman Project’s sister organization, Scott Bates also served as an ex officio member of the Truman Project’s board alongside Hunter Biden. Image
/8 In 2014, Truman Project board members Scott Bates and Michael Breen asked Hunter to pitch the Japanese Ambassador on behalf of their private organization, according to an email recovered from Hunter Biden’s laptop. Image
/9 They were unable to secure funding from the Japanese government for the Truman Project in 2014. However, as AFL previously revealed, Hunter had access to official diplomatic channels and had the opportunity to try again at the Japan State Arrival Ceremony in 2015. Image
/10 Hunter’s wife, daughter, and sister-in-law attended the Japan State Lunch at the White House in 2015. Image
/11 A few months later, after Hunter sent a “supportive letter” on behalf of the Truman Project and its sister organization, the Truman Project ultimately secured $100,000 from the Japan Foreign Ministry, according to an email recovered from the Hunter Biden laptop. Image
/12 Hunter Biden’s relationship with the Truman National Security Project and the Project’s having 2 board members who simultaneously represented the interests of Burisma have been central to America First Legal’s claims that the DOJ failed to ensure Hunter Biden was properly registered as a foreign agent. Image
/13 Biden’s Office of the Vice President was clearly aware of their ethical obligations but only enforced the rules in some cases and not others…

Keep reading:
/14 Hunter Biden sought to use the Office of the Vice President to provide a personal service to a former Rosemont Seneca business partner, Caryn Suffredini.
Image
Image
/15 Caryn Suffredini was part of a business group that provided Rosemont Seneca with access to Chinese interests in 2010, according to an email recovered from the Hunter Biden laptop: Image
/16 Arlene Busch was a Partner of Hunter Biden’s at Rosemont Seneca. Unfortunately for Hunter, the Office of the Vice President caught the ethical ramifications. On October 14, 2014, Kathy Chung emailed the Rosemont Seneca team, “we cannot do this.” Image
/17 The pushback could be due to 5 C.F.R. 2635.702(a), which states that “an employee shall not use or permit the use of his Government position or title or any authority associated with his public office in a manner that is intended to coerce or induce another person, including a subordinate, to provide any benefit, financial or otherwise, to himself or to friends, relatives, or persons.”Image
Image
/18 If Vice President Biden signed the photo, he would have used his government position to benefit his son, whose business financially benefited from Caryn Suffredini.
/19 If the Office of the Vice President thought it would be ethically problematic for the Vice President to sign a photo of someone who was a financial partner of Rosemont Seneca’s, why did it not find it ethically problematic to accept a speaking invitation to a nonprofit whose board included Hunter and Burisma’s chief U.S. lobbyist?
/20 America First Legal will continue to release documents to the public to uncover the corruption and influence peddling by the Biden family. aflegal.org/america-first-…

Fox News on AFL’s complaint against the Dodgers:

“A federal civil rights complaint has been filed with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against the Los Angeles Dodgers… for allegedly engaging in ‘unlawful discrimination.’ Image
“The complaint was filed by America First Legal, the nonprofit conservative public interest organization, against both entities, which are led by Mark Walter, the majority owner of the Dodgers and CEO of Guggenheim Partners.” Image
“‘Their employment practices, as described below, appear to discriminate against employees, or prospective employees, solely because of their skin color or sex. This is patently unlawful,’ AFL’s complaint, which was provided to Fox News Digital, began.” Image

/1🚨VICTORY — AFL secured a SIX-FIGURE SETTLEMENT from Montgomery County Public Schools after a court found its “Staff Pride” group likely violated the First Amendment by blocking our client on X for criticizing it for stripping parents’ rights to opt kids out of LGBT curriculum. Image
/2 In November 2023, AFL sued MCPS on behalf of @bethanyshondark and @MatthewFoldi after MCPS employees used a government-run social media account to silence critics of their far-left agenda. Image
@bethanyshondark @MatthewFoldi /3 In denying MCPS’s motion to dismiss, the court said, “Mandel was iced out while others who shared the Pride Members’ views and supported the MCPS policies were not similarly restricted.”

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL just SUED IBM for illegal DEI-driven discrimination.

IBM leadership on a team call:

“Look at all the black and brown faces on this call.”

“If he keeps it up, he can expect a long career at IBM and lots of bonuses.” Image
/2 With JW Howard Attnys, AFL filed a lawsuit on behalf of John Loeffler, a high-performing technical seller for IBM’s Cloud Platform who spent nearly a decade delivering results.

IBM targeted him for termination because he didn’t check its DEI boxes:

❌ Older
❌ White
❌ Male Image
/3 AFL’s lawsuit alleges IBM engaged in illegal race, sex, and age discrimination by terminating Loeffler after placing him on a pretextual Performance Improvement Plan — all to deliver on its DEI agenda.

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL filed a federal civil rights complaint against Colorado State University with the Department of Education for ILLEGAL DEI policies violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and President Trump’s Executive Order, “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit.” Image
/2 CSU President Amy Parsons sent a campus-wide letter claiming the university complies with federal law — despite clear evidence to the contrary.

Rather than ending its unlawful DEI programs, CSU simply renamed them to create the illusion of compliance.
/3 CSU’s “Office of Inclusive Excellence” overhauled its website to hide illegal DEI policies — but scrubbing the language doesn’t change the reality.

These policies are still enforced across campus, and CSU continues to violate federal law.

/1🚨BREAKING: AFL SUES MARICOPA COUNTY TO STOP ILLEGAL ELECTION POWER GRAB🚨

Maricopa County is trying to unlawfully seize control of election operations in Arizona.

AFL just filed a lawsuit to stop this illegal election interference.

🧵👇 Image
/2 AFL filed the lawsuit against the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors on behalf of Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap.

The board is attempting to unlawfully seize control of election operations by refusing to give Recorder Heap the resources he needs to fulfill his statutory duty to administer elections.Image
/3 Arizona law requires the board to fully fund the recorder’s necessary expenses.

Despite this, the board recently passed a budget that permanently transfers the recorder’s key statutory duties to itself and underfunds the recorder’s office.
