On May 30, 2024, America First Legal (AFL) released statements from AFL President Stephen Miller and AFL Executive Director, Executive Vice President, and General Counsel Gene Hamilton in response to the New York v. Trump verdict.
"This is evil communist lawfare—a vile, hideous, disfiguring attack on American democracy and American elections. Joe Biden and the Left are systematically demolishing and dismantling American institutions in their ruthless pursuit of power. President Trump is being subjected to Marxist oppression, the likes of which we’d never thought we would see in this country. All our rules smashed and broken. Justice in tatters. The Constitution set ablaze. A sad, sad day for freedom and for America. This is the road to serfdom — unless this Marxist lawfare is stopped, halted, and reversed and democracy restored," said Stephen Miller.
