    Replying to @GeneHamilton and @ChuckGrassley
    Let me explain in a different way: @America1stLegal DID NOT EXIST ON JANUARY 6, 2021. The whole J6 investigation was bullshit. But there was ZERO reason for them to get our payroll or bank records. Zero. But here's the subpoena. Jack Smith was on a political witch hunt.

    Imagine telling a young man returning from WW2 approximately 80 years ago that some day, violent, radical rioters would be on the streets of Los Angeles trying to stop criminal illegal aliens from being deported. And elected officials in CA would side with the illegal aliens.

    .🚨Judicial insurrection! A single district court judge in DC wants to set aside hundreds of years of precedent, the Constitution, and the plain text of the law, to say that the United States cannot stop illegal aliens from flooding across the border. This cannot stand.

    🚨UNPRECEDENTED OBSTINANCE Now Judge Murphy says his injunction "remains in full force and effect, nothwithstanding todays stay of the Preliminary Injunction." He cites Justice Sotomayor in saying that his illegal order was "not properly before [the Supreme] Court." Unreal.

    Hi @peterbakernyt and @emilybazelon. I served as Deputy White House Counsel. I also served at DOJ during Trump 1.0. This article is full of hyperbolic agitprop and is divorced from reality. The most weaponized DOJ in history was Biden’s under Garland and Monaco. What did the

    “Under dormant law…” Think about this—until President Trump, generations before failed to REQUIRE aliens to register their presence in the USA. The DC elite failed the American people, failed to enforce the immigration laws, and we all saw the results for decades.

    .🚨 Every American has the right to live in peace at home, free from illegal harassment and intimidation. When this basic aspect of the social contract is violated, law enforcement must intervene. But what is happening to my friends in this matter is shocking. 🧵

    The @America1stLegal already has infrastructure. @shaunmmaguire, Ackman, Lonsdale could stand something up. We can’t have 20-somethings stressed out over potential lawfare. They need to know they’ll be taken care of.

    Read the underlying statute for yourself. ⬇️ Congress delegated to the President the power to federalize "units of the National Guard of any State in such numbers AS HE CONSIDERS NECESSARY." Not what a judge considers necessary... what the President considers necessary.

    If you don't want to read the whole thing... Translation: the President is vested with all executive power by the Constitution. The FTC wields executive power. Therefore, the President must be able to remove FTC commissioners at will.

    “Cleared the way” because two things are patently obvious about this case: 1. TEMPORARY Protected Status means what it means. 2. The lower court didn’t understand the meaning of “[t]here is no judicial review…” in the statute. Kudos to the team at @TheJusticeDept

    In a new order, the Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to end protected status for thousands of Venezuelan citizens living in the U.S. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson would not have granted the administration's request. supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf…

    🚨Remember the case where a district court judge in LA decided to micromanage ICE? The Supreme Court just granted the Trump Admin’s stay application! ICE can do its job in LA! Great work by @TheJusticeDept. Solid concurrence from Justice Kavanaugh. ⬇️

    This is the way. Also, we at @America1stLegal would be proud to represent--in any subsequent civil action--any federal official arrested by state or local officials while performing their official duties. Arrest an ICE officer doing his job = massive liability. We will win.

    California politicians want to arrest federal agents for enforcing federal law. We just sent them a letter: Stand down or face prosecution. No one threatens our agents. No one will stop us from Making America Safe Again.
