Over the past few weeks, I’ve shared with you how we’re holding the Radical Left accountable through The Heritage Oversight Project.
And today I’m excited to share with you a big win.
When the Biden Administration falsely accused our brave horseback border patrol of “whipping illegal aliens”in Del Rio, Texas we instantly knew it was a crock of horse manure. Democrats always lie. Always. We filed a FOIA request to see what Secretary Mayorkas knew before he went to the American people and threw his own employees under the bus. He went as far to say that images of the incident “painfully conjured up the worst elements of our nation's ongoing battle against systemic racism.”
Well, many months after a FOIA investigation and having to sue for records, we got an answer: his own top press staffer told him hours before his infamous press conference that there was no whipping.
Instead of standing up for his agents,
Secretary Mayorkas threw them under the bus—and now we know he withheld critical information that would have cleared his agents.
A lot of the country moved on from this incident…but we didn’t. The men and women of the Border Patrol deserved better. And based on our discovery,
the Border Patrol Union, for the first time in their history, called on the Secretary of Homeland Security to resign.
This shocking email revelation was covered all day on Fox News and other networks and received the attention of dozens of lawmakers in Washington. Most of them added to the chorus that it was time for Mayorkas to resign or be impeached.
This is just one of the strategic lawsuits we’ve filed that is already holding the Biden administration accountable.
And we’re just getting started.
In fact, we’ve filed over 300 FOIAs and are litigating on 10 as of now. We need that number to increase, dramatically, so we can get information out in time for Congress to act.
You already know that those in power won’t investigate themselves. And if we want to hold the Radical Left accountable for their targeted attacks,
then we have to do it ourselves >>
