/1🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨

New docs from the Brennan-Clapper intel committee reveal the group pushed DHS to adopt covert influence campaigns and use “trusted messengers” to get the “American people to feel” a certain way about issues.

#DeepStateDiaries PART 6: Image
/2 Today, we are releasing the sixth tranche of internal files from the “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group,” obtained exclusively through our litigation with @RichardGrenell against the Biden DHS:
/3 Today’s installment highlights how the Group led by John Brennan and James Clapper advocated for using DHS’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis to adopt covert messaging and influence campaigns targeted at the American public.
/4 In a previous installment of #DeepStateDiaries, documents exposed that the Group thought that “quietly making democracy work” was the solution to crushing political dissent...
/5 Today’s installment picks up on that same conversation and shows how the Group discussed manipulating messages and using “trusted messengers” to “get the American people to feel” a certain way about issues. Image
/6 During the Group’s September 2023 Meeting, the group discussed the best way to get people to accept their partisan message that the threat of domestic extremism only comes from Trump supporters.

Moreover, the group discussed redefining political dissent as a “public health” crisis. At first, the Group wanted this messaging to come from the White House:Image

Image
/7 In a telling admission, made nearly a year ago, one participant acknowledged President Biden’s decline stating “The President seems an ineffective messenger, particularly with who his opponent is” and asks “who could be a good messenger?” Image
/8 Another group member, likely from DHS, then noted that Secretary Mayorkas had been doing his part in working with elected and other political officials. “The other guy [Trump] has been forceful. S1 [Mayorkas] has rallied across the government on this.” Image
/9 This participant suggested that DHS “quietly talk to people” and work with people on “both sides of the political aisle” to try to “arm them with the right information.”
/10 In addition to deputizing political leaders, the group looked to “crisis communications” by the private sector as an example and asked who else might make effective surrogates for their message.

They noted that they needed “other digital channels for influence” and that DHS needed to use other groups for its social media outreach to push its message efficiently.Image
Image
/11 One participant suggested trying to get the National Sheriffs Association or border sheriffs to carry their message to people who do not agree with them. Image
/12 Another suggested that it be state and local leaders since there is a “mistrust at the national level.” Image
/13 Another suggested that DHS work with the hosts of the “All In” podcast because “all Republican candidates” had appeared on that show. And, if they could get a couple of the hosts “to support what you are saying, people listen to them.” Image
/14 In summary, the Brennan-Clapper-led DHS intel group had a full-length discussion about manipulating the optics of their political messaging to the American public. They suggested various ways to use the government to launder their political messaging through other channels, including co-opting political leaders, social media companies, and media outlets they perceive to be trusted by their political opponents.
/15 Their message is that all domestic violent extremism comes from Trump supporters and, therefore, such speech should be censored on a public health basis or treated as a public health crisis.
/16 Stay tuned for the next installment of #DeepStateDiaries…

Judge John McConnell just issued a sweeping ruling blocking Trump’s immigration and asylum policies.

This is the same judge AFL exposed for failing to recuse from the Trump spending freeze case — despite previously leading a nonprofit that received $128M in federal funding.

đź§µ Image
Judge McConnell served 18 years on the board of Crossroads Rhode Island.

His nonprofit received $128 million in government funding during that time.
Last year, Judge McConnell blocked President Trump’s spending freeze.

His nonprofit stood to receive millions more following his ruling to keep federal funds flowing through one of the plaintiff states.

DEI DEFEATED🚨

AFL challenged a Biden-era DEI framework embedded in a federal kidney transplant program. 

The Trump Administration just dismantled it.

No American should ever be denied a transplant because of their race. Image
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services just published a final rule stripping the Biden Administration’s DEI framework from the Increasing Organ Transplant Access (IOTA) Model.

One of the most aggressive attempts to inject race into organ transplantation is gone. Image
The IOTA Model was part of Biden’s “sweeping equity agenda” to confront the “unbearable human costs of systemic racism.”

It directed hospitals to create “Health Equity Plans” that sorted patients by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status and implemented race-based interventions to alter transplant outcomes.

In a system where every organ can mean life or death, Biden’s answer was DEI.Image

🚨MARICOPA COUNTY ALERT —

The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors appears to be attempting to undermine a court order, usurp Recorder Justin Heap’s authority, and keep voters in the dark about a faster way to vote.

AFL’s letter exposes what’s happening.

And it’s explosive. Image
The Board’s Elections Director, Scott Jarrett, has been going around Recorder Heap — cornering individual Recorder staff one-on-one and trying to lock in deals the recorder never authorized.

That’s not “good faith.”

That’s staff-shopping — and a deliberate attempt to manufacture facts on the ground and usurp authority the Superior Court just ruled belongs to the Recorder.Image
Recorder Heap has been crystal clear.

All binding agreements on election administration must go through him or his lawyer.

No more backdoor power grabs.

Everything goes through official channels.

AFL is calling on the FCC to press for TV ratings reform and require content warnings for gender identity and LGBTQ+ themes in children’s TV programs.

Parents deserve to know what their kids are watching.

The current system HIDES this information.

Here’s what we found.

đź§µ Image
/2 AFL’s comment asks the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to press the TV Parental Guidelines Oversight Monitoring Board (TVOMB) to add content to warnings for any children’s TV programs with gender identity, same-sex relationships, or LGBTQ+ themes.
/3 The TV ratings system is BROKEN.

Shows rated TV-Y — designed for children ages 2 to 6 — are pushing transgender ideology and gender confusion with ZERO disclosure to parents.

No warnings. No descriptors. Nothing.

Parents are left completely in the dark.

🚨NEW — The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is attempting an ILLEGAL POWER GRAB over early voting.

They advanced a resolution this week to SET UP early voting drop boxes.

But Arizona law gives that power ONLY to the County Recorder.

They’ve been warned. Image
Arizona law is crystal clear.

A.R.S. § 16-542(A):

“The county recorder may establish… early voting locations… the recorder deems necessary.”

ONLY the recorder. NOT the board.

Early ballots must be “delivered or mailed to the county recorder.”

Drop boxes run by the board during early voting are NOT legal. Period.Image
Setting up unauthorized drop boxes is a class 5 felony under A.R.S. § 16-1005(E).

Collecting early ballots without the Recorder’s authority is a class 6 felony under A.R.S. § 16-1005(H). Image

EXPOSED — DOJ indicted Fauci’s senior adviser David Morens for conspiracy and destroying COVID-era records.

But who were his alleged co-conspirators?

A tight network using secret Gmail accounts to dodge FOIA, revive a Wuhan-linked grant, and control the COVID origins story.

đź§µ Image
/2 After Congress exposed Morens’ emails, AFL launched a multi-front attack — demanding the Office of Special Counsel, the HHS Inspector General, and the Archivist of the United States investigate, recover unlawfully removed records, and coordinate with DOJ for potential prosecution.

We then sued Biden’s HHS for hiding records.Image
/3 While the American people were demanding answers about COVID origins, Dr. Morens deliberately moved official government business to his private email to evade FOIA.

This was no lapse in judgment.

It was a coordinated scheme at the highest levels to conceal the truth from the American people.Image
