The AFL said the Biden regime is using “federal taxpayer dollars to fortify the efforts of Democrat Party-aligned organizations to circumvent newly-passed state election integrity laws.”
Dozens of Republican members of Congress have repeatedly asked for details on this federal takeover of election...
