/1🚨BREAKING🚨

Following the attempted assassination of President Trump, we have launched over a dozen investigations into the federal government’s activities before, during, and after July 13, 2024. 

We are fighting to ensure the American people have full transparency.

READ: Image
/2 Congress has charged the United States Secret Service (USSS) with the responsibility to protect many individuals—from the President, Vice President, their immediate families, and former Presidents, to visiting heads of foreign countries and other individuals.
/3 The USSS, which is a component of DHS has no more important role than protecting the life and safety of those individuals whom Congress has designated in need of protection.

Countless agents within the USSS have dedicated their lives and risked their personal safety to advance this vital mission.
/4 However, following the attempted assassination of President Trump on July 13, 2024, public reporting has indicated that requests from components of the USSS for additional resources to fulfill protective missions for protectees—including President Trump—may have been rejected by DHS and USSS leadership.

In particular, this includes requests made by the Special Operations Division of the USSS for additional resources to enhance its critical mission of ensuring the safety and security of all protectees.
/5 The American people deserve to know if such requests were made and rejected anywhere within the broader DHS enterprise.

The American people also deserve to know the extent to which DHS leadership anticipated and prioritized resources for the physical safety and security of all USSS protectees.
/6 Undoubtedly, the agents within the USSS should have the best available equipment and every resource at their disposal to ensure that each one of their protectees–regardless of who they are–remain free from harm.
/7 This is particularly so because the Biden Administration knows how to prioritize resources when it wants to. Since January 20, 2021, DHS has dedicated unprecedented resources to facilitating the mass entry of illegal aliens into the United States.

DHS has spent billions of dollars on releasing illegal aliens into the country, funding nonprofits and NGOs, and otherwise utilizing taxpayer resources to facilitate the entry of illegal aliens into the country. This includes the reassignment of federal law enforcement personnel to facilitate such releases.
/8 The American people deserve to know if DHS and USSS provided the agents on the ground with anything other than the best resources and support possible to ensure the safety of all protectees.

The American people also deserve to know the full extent to which DHS has reallocated and prioritized resources to facilitate the entry of illegal aliens into the United States. And the American people deserve to know how DHS and DOJ responded to the attempted assassination of President Trump.
/9 Accordingly, AFL has filed dozens of FOIAs as part of this investigation, which include, but are not limited to, requests for the following information: 

🚨Whether requests for additional resources from the Secret Service were denied by DHS.
Image
Image
/10🚨Communications from DHS front office officials discussing President Trump’s Secret Service detail throughout the course of the Biden administration.
Image
Image
/11🚨Records regarding how Secret Service resources were allocated on July 13, 2024, including how many agents were on President Trump’s Secret Service detail and whether or not agents were removed from the detail.
Image
Image
/12🚨 Records related to Secret Service requests for assistance from other law enforcement components of DHS.
Image
Image
/13🚨The number of DHS personnel dedicated to or reassigned to process aliens at the Southern border.
Image
Image
/14🚨All text messages, call logs, Microsoft Teams messages, and emails to or from DHS Secretary Alejandro Majorkas, DHS Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Deputy Secretary Kristie Canegallo, and DHS Chief of Staff Jonathan Davidson on July 13, 2024.
Image
Image
/15🚨All communications and records created by or provided to key figures at the DOJ and FBI, including Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
Image
Image
/16🚨 All records and information on shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks from DHS, the FBI, and the U.S. Secret Service.
Image
Image
/17 The American public deserves full transparency regarding the circumstances surrounding this tragic day in American history. America First Legal is absolutely committed to obtaining these records from the government on an expedited basis and will provide the results of its investigation to the American people.

/1🚨BREAKING🚨

An apparent illegal MS-13 gang member who attends Loudoun County Public Schools was arrested for allegedly:

‼️Carrying a gun
‼️Threatening to shoot another student

We sued Loudoun County Public Board for unlawfully silencing parents who voiced their concerns: Image
/2 For years, the Loudoun County School Board has actively suppressed criticism and silenced dissenting voices at school board meetings under the guise of protecting student privacy. This led to a special grand jury report blasting the school district for hiding behind suspect privacy justifications at the expense of student safety.Image
Image
/3 On October 8, 2024, a group of concerned parents and community members attended the school board’s public meeting to voice their concerns over reports that the school had decided to reinstate a reported illegal alien student with ties to the transnational MS-13 gang who had previously been arrested for carrying a stolen firearm and threatening to kill a classmate.Image

/1‼️NEW INVESTIGATION‼️

We're investigating the Biden-Harris DOJ's potential involvement with The 65 Project, a “dark money group with ties to Democratic Party heavyweights” that publicly targets conservative lawyers: Image
/2 After the 2020 election, then-president and executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law Kristen Clarke called post-election challenge lawsuits “frivolous” and “packed with conspiracy-laden theory and baseless allegations” and suggested that President Trump’s Georgia phone call “is potentially criminal…under both Georgia state law and our federal election law.”
/3 The 65 Project’s managing director, Michael Teter, told CNN that “[c]reating a system of deterrence requires that people know these complaints have been filed.” Image

/1🚨🔎NEW INVESTIGATION INTO SPECIAL COUNSEL JACK SMITH’S OFFICE —

We just launched an investigation into the Biden-Harris DOJ and FBI to obtain all communications from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Office throughout its investigation of President Trump: Image
/2 Recent reports have raised further serious questions about the integrity of the Department of Justice and Special Counsel Smith’s investigation into President Trump...
/3 Former senior Department of Justice officials expressed concern that Special Counsel Smith’s team is coordinating directly with Vice President Harris’ presidential campaign.

These reports are deeply troubling and warrant investigation. Image

/1🚨KAMALA’S BIG LIE — “The first bill that we offered Congress...was a bill to fix our immigration system.”

Harris’ bill was a mass amnesty for illegals. It would have only further fueled the greatest illegal immigration crisis in history.

🧵We explain…
/2 Kamala has repeated the fallacy long-advanced by the left that providing an amnesty to millions of illegal aliens already in the United States will result in fewer illegal aliens coming to the United States. 

But this is totally illogical. As the last 4 years have shown, rewarding illegal immigration encourages more illegal immigration. Catch-and-release leads to more catch-and-release. 

AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HER IMMIGRATION BILLS FACILITATE.
/3 Every crime committed by an illegal alien is a crime that, by definition, should never have occurred. 

If an alien is on the streets, they pose a risk to the American people. 

If the alien is detained pending deportation or the outcome of court proceedings, they do not.

/1📰NEW BRIEF —

We just filed a brief urging the Supreme Court of the United States to support parent's rights and reject Montogomery County Public School's (MCPS) attempt to indoctrinate students with a mandatory curriculum on sexuality and "gender identity."

Details… Image
/2 MCPS has adopted a radical program of instruction, including:

🚨Requiring teachers to use books that expose children to radical gender ideology;
🚨Prohibiting parents from opting out of classroom instruction encouraging transgenderism and that the concept biological sex is a social construct;
🚨Disregarding all religious objections to instruction on gender ideology.Image
Image
Image
/3 Accordingly, the Supreme Court of the United States should review this case because:

As AFL notes that courts have historically deferred to public school curriculum choices on the assumption that schools, through curriculum, “inculcat[e] fundamental values necessary to the maintenance of a democratic political system.” However, this is ahistorical as compulsory state-controlled education was not in the framers’ minds. Thus, school curriculum deserves no deference when it conflicts with constitutional rights.
