The 36-year-old former speechwriter and senior White House aide is heading up America First Legal (AFL), a conservative nonprofit that boasts of close ties to the former president, disdain for the “radical left,” and a wide-ranging plan to challenge the Biden administration in court. The group has already scored some early victories, including in lawsuits accusing the U.S. of discriminating against White business owners.
