/1🚨EMERGENCY: A migrant crime wave has seized America.

Today, America First Legal, Ken Paxton, and 20 Attorneys General filed an urgent motion in federal court to stop Biden’s secret migrant flights depositing illegals from crime-plagued nations directly into US cities: Image
/2 On January 5, 2023, President Biden and DHS Secretary Antonio Mayorkas announced the creation of the unprecedented new program to allow 30,000 aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to fly into the country EVERY MONTH. Image
/3 The program makes use of “parole,” which is a strictly limited authority intended to allow aliens to enter the country without a visa in emergency situations.
/4 Under the Trump administration, it was normal for the parole authority to be used a few dozen times a month.

This new program makes a mockery of the parole authority, using it to create an entirely new parallel immigration system outside the control of Congress.
/5 The program essentially creates a “visa-free” immigration program for aliens from those countries. The program required minimal vetting that is laughably lax. Program participants do not need to have a visa or even have any kind of interview with a U.S. official before being approved for travel to the USA. For example, applicants for immigrant visas are required to undergo a comprehensive medical exam to prevent the transmission of dangerous diseases. Aliens in the parole program don’t have to undergo any kind of exam.
/6 As a federal judge in Texas recently pointed out, applicants to the program are approved at a rate of 97.5%.

Thus, applicants are virtually guaranteed admission to the United States. Image
/7 The CHNV Program allows for a maximum of 30,000 aliens to use the program each month, and sure enough, the Biden administration has been taking full advantage, allowing close to 30,000 aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to fly into the country EVERY SINGLE MONTH:Image
/8 Even worse, there is no scheduled end date for the program, and DHS consistently renews the parole status of aliens already in the United States.

So, the program essentially allows these aliens to immigrate permanently.
/9 It gets worse… as the States pointed out in their briefing to the court, aliens in parole status are immediately given work permits and are entitled to basically every kind of welfare benefit after being present for five years. The costs of the program to taxpayers are therefore going to be enormous.Image
/10 Nationals of these countries have allegedly been involved in heinous crimes in the United States, including rape and murder…keep reading.
/11 Laken Riley, an innocent 22-year-old, was on a jog in Georgia when an illegal alien from Venezuela abducted and brutally murdered her. Image
/12 A 40-year-old Nicaraguan national, who was previously deported 5x, was charged with brutally raping a disabled woman. Image
/13 A 26-year-old Haitian man was recently charged with raping a 15-year-old girl in Massachusetts. Image
/14 Today, we filed a motion asking the court to reconsider its erroneous decision in this critical case. aflegal.org/america-first-…

/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.

/1🚨UVA’s Board of Visitors voted to dismantle its DEI infrastructure.

Instead, UVA just rebranded.

When it failed to comply, DOJ demanded proof.

So AFL investigated — and found the truth:

Same people.
Same responsibilities.
Same agenda.
New titles.

We’ve got the receipts.🧵 Image
Image
/2 Christian West was UVA Darden’s “Senior Director of Global Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Recruiting.”

Now he’s the “Senior Director of Global Recruitment.”

Same bio.
Leverages the same DEI “partnerships.”
Same race-preferenced hiring practices. Image
Image
/3 Jannatul Pramanik was UVA’s “Associate Director, Global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the Office of Admissions.”

Now she’s “Associate Director, Global Recruitment.”

Her role didn’t change.
The discrimination didn’t disappear.
Only the label did. Image

/1🚨BREAKING — AFL just sent a letter to DOJ exposing how the University of Virginia is disguising its discriminatory DEI infrastructure under a new lexicon of euphemisms to evade federal law.

The law is clear — and UVA is on notice.

DOJ is watching — and so are we.

🧵THREAD: Image
/2 On April 28, DOJ formally directed UVA to certify — “with precision and particularity” — that it had dismantled its discriminatory DEI programs to comply with federal civil rights law and President Trump’s Executive Orders.

UVA didn’t comply.

Instead, it formed a working group to “promote open inquiry” and build a “truly inclusive and welcoming community.”Image
/3 UVA has rebranded its discriminatory policies under new labels, using euphemisms like “Inclusive Excellence,” “Community Engagement,” and “Viewpoint Diversity.”

The names changed — but the substance didn’t.

“Inclusive Excellence” is the framework universities now use to disguise DEI — embedding unlawful preferences based on race, sex, national origin, and other protected traits into operations under the illusion of equity and belonging.Image
