A conservative non-profit group allied with former President Donald Trump urged “Hill staffers and their colleagues” to cut off meetings with any former Jan. 6 committee staffers who have since joined firms that lobby.
In a letter sent to hundreds of recipients on the Hill, the dark money group American Accountability Foundation listed the names of the former committee staffers and their titles - along with their new employers and links to their firms’ clients - all of whom they urged to blacklist.
“AAF has put together a cheat-sheet below outlining their new firms and the firm’s clients so you can be sure you (and your staff) aren’t inadvertently taking a meeting with a company that hires staff that hates your boss,” says the memo sent by Thomas Jones, the group’s president and founder. In his letter, Jones noted recent reporting by POLITICO on the January 6 committee staffers being hired by law and lobbying shops.
“It is important to remember that even if one of these former J6 investigators is not listed as a lobbyist on this specific account, the billings brought in by the clients listed below benefit all staff at the J6 investigator’s new firm,” he added.

Jones confirmed the authenticity of the memo in an email to POLITICO. He railed against the January 6 committee’s use of investigative power, claiming that the committee and the F.B.I. forced some to “spend tens - sometimes hundreds - of thousands of dollars defending themselves from an overreaching and weaponized government.” He argued that conservatives should not be taking meetings with these lobbyists’ clients.
“My email was just a short list of people and companies they should stop working with,” he said.

Re: Non-Profit Organization Endeavors Questionable Role in Housing Migrants, Date: August 12, 2021
The research... presents a clear picture of a serious failure in the federal procurement process and an abusive use of influence peddling to secure a federal contract to serve a vulnerable at-risk population, migrant families. ...the non-profit group Endeavors hired Washington insiders to help them secure large federal government contracts. Their work gaming the system was problematic... The group had no experience in housing migrant families, yet they were tasked with serving thousands of migrant families. The group exploited the worst of Washington influence peddling, hiring former Washington insiders to use their influence to secure contracts. On Inauguration Day, they hired a Biden transition member and former Obama ICE official and then had him use those connections to secure....
They should not be able to walk the streets. Just like what Mad Maxine said about Trump’s cabinet. Without consequences, it will only get worse.
Fighting back. I like it.
Blacklisted? They should be identified and hunted down like rabid dogs and dispensed with accordingly.
They should be part of the prisoner swap for J6 Patriots illegally incarcerated in DC jails from the J6 Ambush by DNC and RINOs.
Well, listed, yes.
Line up over there in front of the guillotine.
