From 2012. Yes 2012. 6 years ago.

Reverend Jeremiah Wright caused problems for President Barack Obama's campaign in 2008, and new details have emerged alleging that the then-candidate tried to convince his former pastor to keep quiet.

The retired pastor, who came under fire after an old sermon where he said that the September 11 terrorist attacks were 'America's chickens coming home to roost', said that he was offered $150,000 to stay silent until the election was over.

Journalist Edward Klein interviewed Mr Wright and included their conversation in his new book, The Amateur.

Maybe we’ll get a Reggie Update. You remember Reggie, don’t you? Obama’s former ‘Body Man’. He’s been vewy-vewy quiet for the last few years.

Bill Clinton paid Jesse Jackson not to run against him back in the 1990’s.

WOW!

that should totally shut up the latest Mueller krap about DJT’s assistant’s payment

good one!
very good one!

ps: Rev Wright reportedly has run a “church” providing cover for Islamics....telling them they can say they are members without having to give up their Muslim “religion”.....at any event, Wright makes some AWFULLY embarrassing remarks, its no wonder Obammy (SoroznNazi money no doubt) paid him to keep his big mouth shut , ha ... I would have done the same thing!

Doesn’t the phony reverend have an advanced degree in Islamic studies or something? I used to be able to find it but for some weird reason many stories have disappeared from the internets.

There are two standards of Justice in America... There’s the standard of justice that applies to Democratic politicians, and then there’s the justice that applies to everybody else.

It began with the Kennedy’s and now all Democrat politicians enjoy the same sort of privileges that they enjoyed for decades.

The Democrats ran both houses of congress from the 1950s right up until the election of Clinton. And since then they have had control of all judicial appointments for 16 years. Now the justice system if full of leftest judges and corrupt officials who’s entire careers are a result of Obama, Clinton and some very week minded Republican congressmen and senators.

The Clinton’s got away with murder, so the rest of them think they can too and Obama was proof that they can... Draining the swamp means firing pretty much everybody in any senior position within the FBI, Justice Department and all other government agencies and then rehiring based solely on qualifications rather than party affiliation.

Trump better do that before he’s out of office, otherwise the continued corruption of America will continue from within and Mexico will start looking like an honest country compared to the United States.

Yup. For taking in 2 million in foreign contributions I believe. So with the 400k fine he still was able to keep 1.6 million in ill gotten gains. Crime does pay.

Gotta be some separation of church and state violation in there, as well. Call the ACLU. Oh, never mind.

It’s not about logic or fairness.

It’s about power.

woman with the pics of Obama smoking pot didn’t make them public until after he was elected

A whole lot of skeletons stayed in Obama’s closet in 2008.

Imam Wright sold out cheap. Even Bernie was cheap. $600,000 lake house out in the boonies? Chump change shack for a low rent Bolshie.

What about his $5million bribe to the U of C medical center for his then unemployed wife’s ‘part-time’ (no-show) job that paid her $377,000 per year. A job for which she was supremely unqualified.

A clear bribe.
