/1🚨🗳️NEW LAWSUIT TO STOP ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTING

We just sued Maricopa County, AZ for refusing to remove illegal aliens from their voter rolls ahead of the election.

Maricopa officials are blatantly defying a state law mandate to purge ineligible voters from the rolls—so we SUED: Image
/2 We filed a lawsuit against the Maricopa County Recorder on behalf of Strong Communities Foundation of Arizona and a registered voter and naturalized citizen for failing to take action to remove foreign citizens from their voter rolls.
/3 On July 17, 2024, we sent letters on behalf of our clients demanding that election officials in all 15 Arizona counties fulfill their legal obligations to prevent aliens from voting and warning them that we would pursue legal action if they fail to do so.
/4 Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer replied through his attorney, brazenly stating that he would not be taking any action. He incorrectly claimed that his office is already following the law about verifying the citizenship of voters.
/5 This claim is incorrect because the number of registered voters without confirmed citizenship continues to rise under his watch, and his office has not even bothered to obtain access to any of the necessary databases for checking the citizenship of already registered voters.
/6 We are now fulfilling our legal promise and suing Maricopa County on behalf of our clients. 

Arizona election officials have a mandatory obligation to ensure that foreign nationals are removed from their voter rolls and that they use the available access to federal databases.
/7 Arizona law requires county recorders to perform monthly list maintenance to confirm the citizenship of registered voters who have failed to provide proof of their citizenship.
/8 Two federal statutes that have been in effect for nearly thirty years, 8 U.S.C. § 1373(c) and 8 U.S.C. § 1644, allow State and local officials to obtain information about the citizenship or immigration status of any individual for any lawful purpose.

Yet, Recorder Richer obstinately refuses to use these statutes to get citizenship information from DHS about voters registered in Maricopa County.
/9 Last month, we urged all 50 states to use this existing federal law to stop foreigners from voting in our elections.

You can read more about our plan below:
/10 As of April 1, 2024, there were 35,273 registered voters in AZ who had failed to provide proof of their citizenship and were therefore entitled to vote in federal (but not State and local) races.

The 2020 presidential election in AZ was decided by only 10,457 votes. Image
/11 Given Maricopa County’s failure to act, AFL has taken swift legal action to compel them to fulfill their statutory duties. aflegal.org/america-first-…

/1🚨BREAKING — Harvard is using MILLIONS of YOUR tax dollars for DEI “research.”

Harvard received payouts through the end of the Biden Admin — and grants are still active…

Unless terminated, Harvard will continue to receive federal funds to push DEI initiatives through 2030! Image
Image
/2 DIVERSE RESEARCH WORKFORCE — One federal grant shows that HHS has already paid out $17.3 million to the Harvard Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTR) since May 2023 for projects focused on fixing what it calls a “workforce [that] is not sufficiently diverse” and on increasing participation of “diverse populations in research.”

The grant also outlines plans to meet the needs of “diverse patient populations” through training and “diversify[ing] the CTR workforce” at Harvard to meet the needs of “diverse patient populations” and “reduce health inequities.”Image
/3 This grant doesn’t end with Harvard. It includes 37 sub-awards to various hospitals and institutions — each in pursuit of the same DEI agenda, with many even adding to it.

Just after the 2024 presidential election, the General Hospital Corporation received an $83,445 sub-award to “enroll 30 Latino individuals and 30 non-Latinos and hold group discussions” to investigate why Latinos familiar with research studies and clinical trials do not participate.Image

The Biden Admin’s weaponization of the intelligence apparatus against Americans must be fully exposed. Image
