I think Obama's Presidential library encapsulates his role in history, and that it will age very well with time (and prosecution).

From the time I first saw the 'brutalist' design of Obama's Presidential library, I thought it looked like a  prison or a garbage can upside down.

 Grok says the building's design is inspired by (but not a pure form of)  'brutalism.' 

"Critics and observers note its monumental, blocky concrete/stone-clad form, minimal ornamentation, and raw, imposing presence. It is not a pure example of classic Brutalism but draws from that aesthetic in its geometric massing and material honesty."

"It peaked in the 1950s–1970s but later faced criticism for appearing cold, institutional, or alienating."

It's as though the building's designers knew, from the day Obama walked out on stage as 'wanna-be' Ceasar, his legacy would be garbage and ultimately end in arrest and prosecution.

President Trump deals harshly with those who abuse America. Ask Maduro. Obama has done far more than Maduro to destroy America.

Would love to see someone Photoshop The Who recreating the "Who's Next" cover on that thing.

Yes, in a perfect world he would be jailed or face worse for his coup and coverup against a duly elected President. Among countless other crimes.

Besides the criminality, think of the waste he caused.

As my Republican Senator said at the local level prior to his election: "If he says he was born in Hawaii, that is good enough for me".

The fix was in from the start. Our elites decided Obama was a lesser evil than Hillary.

The 2010 book, RADICAL-IN-CHIEF Barack Obama and the Untold Story of American Socialism, by Stanley Kurtz suggests it was not even a close call; i.e., the evidence was available at the time of the election.

Unfortunately, if the Dem controlled Congress thought it had no choice but to find Obama ineligible, it could have easily installed Hillary.

Every point the author makes is well documented.

IMHO, Obama took the political gamesmanship to an all new level.

I don’t think he cared if it killed US service members in Iraq, or if China was crawling on our back, he was all about himself and his party.

There was no topic off limits, no boundaries in how far they were willing to go.

That administration made the US into a circus, no different than some Caribbean banana Republic. The whole LGBTQIA garbage and how they exploited that fad for their political gain, embarrassing. They made the US look like a clown show.

Good summary.

Never heard this before: “Hezbollah’s global cocaine trafficking network”. I thought they only wanted to destroy Israel and Jews.

Author does not touch on role of NGOs and State Dept to siphon off billions of dollars to fund left wing causes. Nor does it touch on the Clinton Foundation and daughter’s wedding.

Obama and Holder took the vast surveillance and prosecutorial powers of the DOJ/FBI (esp. those created by Bush after 9/11) and turned it into America’s race-marxist KGB
