FOX NEWS: America First Legal, Stephen Miller's legal group, eyes 'target-rich environment' after early wins
A conservative legal group set up by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller is already scoring some early victories against the Biden administration just weeks after getting started, and the group believes it has a "target-rich environment" as it looks to push back on issues from immigration to Critical Race Theory.
"Our organization is only a matter of weeks old, we are in every sense of the word a brand new organization, and yet in that very short time we've already been involved in spearheading some of the most important litigation in the entire country about the most important issues that will determine the future of this republic," Miller told Fox News in an interview this week.

AFL led Texas farmers who held qualifying loans but were disqualified as they were White.

…
"We have a number of ongoing projects that will likely soon prove to be fruitful and we are making a real difference for the conservative movement at a very early stage of our existence," Hamilton said. "I think this is going to be a target-rich environment for us to operate in, and I think based on what we've experienced so far, the future is very bright for our organization."
