/1⚠️MISPLACED PRIORITIES —

Over the last 4 years the Biden-Harris admin has steadily transformed FEMA — the agency responsible for responding to natural disasters like Hurricane Helene — into an illegal alien resettlement agency that emphasizes DEI over public safety.

THREAD: Image
/2 The Shelter and Services Program is designed to exclusively provide shelter and services to illegal aliens. 

Over $1 BILLION in taxpayer dollars have been allocated between FY2023 and FY2024.
Image
Image
/3 For example, of that $1 billion, FEMA gave over $38 million to NYC – a sanctuary city overrun by illegal aliens.

NYC, in turn, is handing out gift cards and hotels to illegal aliens. Image
/4 Moreover, the Emergency Food and Shelter Program has been reshaped to provide funding to “families and individuals encountered by the Department of Homeland Security” – aka illegal aliens.

This is a SEPARATE program. 

$685 MILLION has been allocated to fund illegal aliens.
Image
Image
/5 Beyond allocating billions of taxpayer dollars on illegal aliens, the agency has been entirely captured by the "equity" agenda – a euphemism for discrimination.

The #1 goal of their strategic plan is to “Instill Equity as a Foundation of Emergency Management.” Image
/6 For example, one of their initiatives to address “equity” is “Prioritizing casework and evaluation for direct housing eligibility for vulnerable populations to include those with access and functional needs or those who have a primary language other than English.” Image
/7 They even went so far as to publish a “Post-Disaster Guide for Local Officials and Leaders” in November 2023 for “Achieving Equitable Recovery.”

In other words, they are pushing their equity agenda on states and locals as a way of reshaping communities affected by disasters. Image
/8 In the “Summary of Eight Equity Goals” within the guide, they advocate for “equitable outcomes” and “rebuilt community ‘with justice for all.’”

Effectively, FEMA is factoring race, sex, and sexual preferences into who should receive disaster relief first. Image
/9 The guide outlines how to “Track and Evaluate Equity Outcomes,” including asking officials to consider if people are receiving “recovery resources” based on “distributive justice.”

“Distributive justice” is just the radical way of saying discrimination based on race and sex. Image
/10 One of the guide’s goals outlines how to “Overcome Barriers and Ensure Fair Recovery Outcomes" and includes a chart of "barriers to equity," including:

-Burnout 
-Hate crimes
-Political polarization
-Power disparities
-Bias Image
/11 FEMA also identified “People of color,” “Women,” and “The LGBTQ+ community” as “disproportionately impacted by disaster.”

According to the Biden-Harris administration, natural disasters don't have the same impact on white straight men. Image
/12 In summary, the Biden-Harris FEMA views disaster response as an opportunity to propel their radical "equity" agenda and further resettle and support millions of illegal aliens within the U.S.

The American people are paying for all of it. Image

/1🚨BREAKING — Rep. @ByronDonalds is now a plaintiff in AFL’s landmark lawsuit challenging the 2020 Census.

The Census SKEWED population counts and STOLE representation.

Every American deserves to be counted AND represented. Image

/1🚨 BREAKING: AFL has filed federal civil rights complaints against THREE Virginia localities for race-based discrimination.

AFL is requesting @CivilRights investigate:
-City of Alexandria
-City of Richmond
-Arlington County
/2 Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits race-based discrimination by entities receiving federal funding.

Title VII prohibits discrimination in employment.

These jurisdictions appear to be violating both.
/3 AFL’s complaint highlights how the City of Alexandra passed a resolution, which Alexandria’s Office of Race and Social Equity (RASE) describes as motivating the city’s commitment to “embedding racial and social equity into all city policies, programs, decisions, and environments.”Image

/1🚨BREAKING—AFL has filed a complaint with the Dept. of Education, urging an immediate investigation into Illinois’ new law forcing annual mental health screenings on children without parental consent—a clear violation of federal law and shocking expansion of state power. Image
/2 Illinois’ Public Act 104-0032 orders schools to screen kids in grades 3–12 for mental health issues at least once a year, starting in 2027.

No consent. No parental notice. Just the State interrogating children about their private emotions, family life, and home environment—and recording their answers in a government database.
/3 Under the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment, schools must obtain affirmative written parental consent before subjecting any child to any “survey, analysis, or evaluation” about their mental health or psychological condition.

Illinois’ new law ignores that requirement entirely.

/1🚨PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN — America First Legal just released a template letter that parents can use to opt out of radical classroom instruction and woke school policies. Image
/2 AFL’s letter enables parents to exercise their rights after the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Mahmoud v. Taylor.

The Court held that a school district violated parents’ rights by failing to provide notice and an opportunity to opt out before exposing children to radical LGBTQ storybooks.
/3 AFL’s letter also helps parents exercise their rights under the PPRA — a federal law that requires schools to give parents notice and an opportunity to inspect classroom materials.

/1🔎NEW — AFL has expanded its investigation into the City of Portland and the Portland Police Bureau.

We’re examining the bureau’s involvement with anti-ICE groups and Antifa — and whether it let radical demonstrators disrupt ICE operations, assault reporters, or shield Antifa. Image
/2 AFL has requested records to uncover how Portland officials may have enabled lawlessness — including by assisting anti-ICE groups in acquiring office space.
/3 This expands AFL’s ongoing investigation into the City of Portland, which previously uncovered its explicit inclusion of race as a central component of the city’s policing practices to achieve “equitable outcomes.”
