    WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL) sent a letter to the chief election official of all fifty States, with a copy to each Governor and Attorney General explaining how they can use two key existing federal laws to obtain information from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security about the citizenship or immigration status of any individual for “any purpose authorized by law.” Ensuring the integrity of voter rolls and investigating whether to remove potentially ineligible voters from voter rolls is undoubtedly a “purpose authorized by law,” and therefore, these laws can serve a vital function in providing States...

    Vice President Kamala Harris' checkered prosecution record during her tenure as California attorney general is resurfacing as her bid for the White House heats up. From locking up parents whose children had chronically missed school to supporting a bail fund that let violent Black Lives Matter rioters out of jail in 2020, Harris' approach to criminal justice is facing fresh scrutiny. America First Legal (AFL), a nonprofit conservative legal watchdog group, launched seven investigations into Harris' prosecutorial background on Thursday afternoon,... Through public records requests to the California Attorney General's Office, AFL is investigating Harris for failure to comply with...

    The cybersecurity firm behind the software update that crashed millions of computers globally has been hit with a complaint over sidelining its white, male employees under a diversity-hiring scheme. A conservative legal action group alleges that CrowdStrike favors women and minorities for jobs and promotions in coding, programming and other areas through diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. America First Legal (AFL), the group that complained about CrowdStrike to the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), did not blame DEI for the bug that crashed some 8.5 million computers globally.

    Jim Hoft reported yesterday that America First Legal (AFL) released documents demonstrating how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) put together a since-disbanded DHS intel group that included Deep State goons John Brennan and James Clapper to reclassify political dissent under the guise of “public health” so that ordinary Americans felt empowered to rat on their neighbors. Now, AFL has released an even more infuriating batch of documents that should send chills straight up your spine because Trump supporters are on the menu. These newly released internal files by AFL show the Biden regime classifies someone as a person likely...

    A purportedly never-before-seen Department of Defense memo from the Obama era appears to indicate the federal government already may have had original copies of the documents seized at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida in 2022, raising serious questions about the pretext for the raid, Fox News Digital has exclusively learned. America First Legal (AFL), a conservative legal group, released Thursday what it says is a newly unearthed memo from the Obama administration Department of Defense "confirming the government may have already had originals of the alleged classified documents involved in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s sham prosecution against President...

  • TAX DAY – AFL Sues the IRS and Treasury for Illegally Hiding Government Records on the Biden Administration’s Plans for Race-Based Tax Audits

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL) filed a lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of the Treasury for unlawfully concealing records regarding the Biden Administration’s plans for race-based tax audits. Congress prohibits the IRS from collecting data on taxpayer race and ethnicity directly and from acquiring such data indirectly from other agencies. However, to advance the “equity” cult, the Biden Administration simply steamrolled the law. On May 18, 2021, the Department’s Deputy Secretary Wally Adeyemo said that “racial equity” was a key factor in the Administration’s “design of tax compliance.” On December 14, 2021,...

    Progressive insurance has been sued for 'patently unlawful' racism by offering $25,000 grants to help black-owned businesses buy vehicles — but barring white, Asian, Latino, and other entrepreneurs from applying. The lawsuit was filed by the conservative group America First Legal (AFL) and others on behalf of Nathan Roberts, the owner of Ohio-based Freedom Truck Dispatch, who couldn't apply because he's white. Progressive, which is known for its quirky adverts, did not answer DailyMail.com's requests for comment. They have said the grants were there to help black-owned firms that have historically struggled to access capital. AFL lawyer Gene Hamilton said...

    A conservative nonprofit filed a federal civil rights complaint against Kellogg's on Wednesday, accusing the cereal brand of 'unlawful' diversity policies and 'sexualizing' its products. This is the second complaint this week against the company by America First Legal, a nonprofit headed by Stephen Miller, a former adviser to Donald Trump.

The group claimed Kellogg's 'hiring, training and promotion practices are designed to achieve a balance based on race and sex that violates the federal law banning...

    America First Legal (AFL) on Tuesday filed a shareholder lawsuit against Target in response to the retailer’s Pride merchandise that resulted in significant backlash, boycotts and a drop in stock price. Target locations across the country famously stunned customers in May when massive June Pride Month displays were unveiled featuring everything from female-style swimsuits that can be used to "tuck" male genitalia to mugs that said "gender fluid." The polarizing Pride merchandise also included onesies and rompers for newborn babies, a variety of adult clothing with slogans such as "Super Queer," party supplies, home decor, multiple books and a "Grow...

    The Biden White House has so far remained silent as it weighs whether to block the release of a trove of documents from the Obama administration that may contain information about Hunter Biden's relationship with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) informed the White House on Nov. 30 that it will soon release nearly 300 email messages in response to Freedom of Information of Act (FOIA) requests for emails that contain the word "Burisma," Insider reported. The Biden administration may stop the release of these records by invoking executive privilege, but the White House...

    ....America First Legal is headed by Stephen Miller, the architect of President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigrants. While AFL lacks the name recognition and financial heft of many conservative counterparts, it has racked up notable court victories over the Biden administration. Casting itself as “the long-awaited answer to the ACLU,” AFL has weaponized the grievance politics embodied by Trump’s “Make America Great Again” movement through dozens of federal lawsuits... ...The group’s success is alarming civil rights advocates, who fear Miller has figured out how to harness the courts to protect America’s declining White majority ...

    It’s nearly impossible to have even a short conversation with a college administrator, politician, or chief executive without the words diversity and inclusion dropping from their lips. Diversity and inclusion appear to be the end-all and be-all of their existence. So, I thought I’d begin this discussion by first looking up the definition of diversity. Here’s my question to those who are wedded to diversity and inclusion: Are people better off the less they have in common with one another? For example, women are less likely to be able to march 12.4 miles in five hours with an 83-pound assault...

Mouncey has expressed her desire to become the first elite transgender footballer in the country after starring for the Ainslie Tricolours in the AFL Canberra women's competition this season.
