I read today that on Jan 20 Chicago will be requesting help from the Feds, didn’t say whether it was for $$$ or law enforcement.

But the first family will depart Washington on Inauguration Day, Jan. 20, by flying one last time on the presidential aircraft known as Air Force One, likely to Chicago. The plane won’t be designated as Air Force One for that final trip, however, because the designation is reserved only for the sitting president...

Officially, I suggest modestly that the flight should be officially Guantanamo2

Flight Guantanamo 1 has already been reserved.

Chicago is in the grips of a soaring homicide rate and reeling from a horrific black-on-white torture hate crime that was captured on video. Over Christmas weekend, 12 Chicagoans were killed in a total of 27 shootings.

Thanks, Barack!

“Why did he go back to Chicago? That puzzles me.”

It makes me a little nervous. Obama still has a week and a half to finish his fundamental transformation of America. Who knows what the shallow child will say or do. Will he try to set off riots for Trump’s first weeks? Will he formally abandon Israel? Will he try to pardon 25 million illegal aliens?

I wonder if they still “own” that house in Chicago that they obviously had zero emotional attachment to.

Where are they going in Chicago? To their house that they’ve only been to once that I can remember in 8 years. Weird.

I wish I had the quote from Tucker Carlson on what it will be about. It was hysterical.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I watched it. T.C. at his best. I only hope that Obama saw it too.

I thought he already gave a farewell speech. Is this going to be like the 12 days of Christmas where we get a farewell speech each day until the end? Sure hope not...

Hey - Trump went on a Victory/Thank-You Tour, why shouldn't Obama go on a Bitter Grapes Loser Tour?
