/1🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨

We obtained new docs from the Brennan-Clapper DHS intel group revealing the Biden admin developed a classified plan to expand monitoring of political dissent.

#DeepStateDiaries PART 5: Image
/2 Today, we are releasing the fifth tranche of internal files from the “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group,” obtained exclusively through our litigation with @RichardGrenell against the Biden DHS:
/3 From the day President Biden took power, he has mobilized the national security state to support its censorship program…
/4 In June 2021, the Biden Administration’s National Security Council published its first-ever “National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism,” a 32-page plan that outlined their whole-of-government effort to work with Big Tech, state and local governments, non-profits, and others to censor political speech and surveil political dissent.Image
/5 AFL has been investigating the Administration’s implementation of this “Domestic Surveillance Strategy” since 2021, including filing a lawsuit against DHS to compel the release of records relating to how DHS uses its intelligence capabilities to target conservative Americans. Image
/6 You can read more about that lawsuit here: aflegal.org/afl-sues-the-d…
/7 Today, AFL’s litigation against the DHS Intelligence Experts Group has obtained never before released documents exposing that the Biden Administration published a classified implementation plan to accompany their public-facing 2021 Domestic Surveillance Strategy. Image
/8 This classified plan has not been reported publicly until today.

No one in the general public knows what’s in it, what it directs departments and agencies to do, or the scope of agencies involved with it.
/9 This is not the first time AFL has discovered the Biden Administration using classified systems to target political dissent. In January 2023, AFL’s lawsuit against the CDC uncovered that the CDC partnered with the State Department, USAID, the Census Bureau, and others on an NSC classified call to discuss censoring so-called “disinformation.”
/10 Stay tuned for the next installment of #DeepStateDiaries aflegal.org/exclusive-new-…

/1🚨 VICTORY — ATF REVERSES UNLAWFUL POLICY 🔄

The Biden-Harris ATF has reversed its unlawful “zero-tolerance” policy that allowed the agency to revoke federal firearms licenses (FFL) over minor paperwork errors, following AFL and @TPPF’s lawsuit.
/2 Historically, FFL holders were required to “willfully” violate the Gun Control Act (GCA) to lose their licenses.

This required intentional and reckless disregard for the GCA’s requirements in filling out the federal form.
/3 In 2021, ATF issued a punitive and unlawful policy redefining “willfulness” to allow the federal government to revoke FFLs for typographical or inadvertent errors and minor violations. Image
