WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, following its victory in disbanding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group,” America First Legal (AFL) is releasing the entirety of the documents obtained through litigation that have been the basis for its #DeepStateDiaries, a multi-part series of releases exposing the Brennan-Clapper Intel Group.
In the first installment, AFL released documents showing how the group proposed expanding DHS’s reach into local communities in an “ambiguous” and “non-threatening” way and contemplating ways to get teachers and mothers to report their children.
The second installment revealed how the Biden Administration proposed using military, religious, and even political affiliations (Trump supporters) as “indicators” to tag Americans as prone to committing violent attacks.
In the third installment, AFL revealed how the Biden administration’s “intelligence experts” discussed using January 6 and the manufactured raid at Mar-a-Lago to bootstrap and further justify targeting their political opponents for surveillance.
The fourth installment of the #DeepStateDiaries showed the Deep State admitting its own existence as a group that works “quietly” to “make democracy work” in the face of “domestic terrorism threats,” or in their eyes – “supporters of the former president.”
In the fifth installment, AFL reported, for the first time, that the Biden Administration had drafted a classified implementation plan to accompany their 2021 Domestic Surveillance Strategy.
Finally, in the sixth installment, AFL highlighted how the John Brennan and James Clapper “Experts Group” advocated for using DHS’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis to adopt covert messaging and influence campaigns targeted at the American public.
In total, these meeting minutes from the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group reveal more evidence of a Whole-of-Government approach under the Biden Administration to silencing political dissent and a new Orwellian effort to reclassify that political dissent as an “indicator” of “domestic terrorism” to justify increased surveillance of conservatives.
These documents further reveal what AFL has long fought to expose: a coordinated effort by the entire government to monitor, censor, and crush political dissent.
AFL has previously reported that the Biden Administration is taking a government-wide approach to censorship of those who express different political opinions to the Administration. These documents provide another data point in support of that.
First, AFL led the investigation into the 2021 “National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism” (“Domestic Surveillance Strategy”). AFL’s lawsuit previously confirmed that, after January 6, DHS primarily compiled news articles published by left-leaning media to exaggerate the “heightened domestic terror threat.” The investigation also revealed that DHS created a training memo for individuals to make “real-life decisions” based on “radicalization” scenarios with various fictitious characters.
Second, AFL’s lawsuit against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed extensive White House involvement in censorship efforts, including the use of the National Security Council’s classified systems and the White House Situation Room, to coordinate censorship of online discussions relating to COVID-19. That lawsuit also revealed how the CDC used designated “community partners” to use “Black Twitter” to “disseminate messages and conduct outreach in a trusted and culturally responsive and linguistically appropriate way”
Statement from Gene Hamilton, America First Legal Executive Director:
“The American people need to read these records and our exposé of the Biden Administration’s efforts to further weaponize the government to achieve their objectives. This “committee,” stacked with the Administration’s allies, was formed in violation of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, and we were proud to have stopped its activities. Now, it is up to Congress to stop the Biden Administration from further using these same actors to advance their radical agenda at the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis,“ said Gene Hamilton.
