The Obama Foundation touted progress on the construction of its presidential library Tuesday after President Trump mocked builders for being behind on developing the property.
“We can’t wait to open our doors to the Obama Presidential Center next spring! In addition to a world-class museum, the 19.3-acre campus will feature a gymnasium, a fruit and vegetable garden, a branch of the Chicago Public Library, a playground, and so much more,” the Obama Foundation wrote in a post on the social media platform X.
A separate post thanked all the workers for contributing to the project. The comments follow Trump’s Tuesday statements criticizing the time it’s taken to develop the library.
“I mean look, President Obama — and if he wanted help, I’d give him help because I build on time and on budget — he’s building his presidential library in Chicago. It’s a disaster,” Trump said during a presser with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
“And he said something to the effect, ‘I only want DEI [diversity, equity and inclusion], I only want woke.’ He wants woke people to build it. Well, he got woke people and they have massive cost overruns, the job is stopped. I don’t know, it’s a disaster,” he added.
The Obama Foundation responded to the president’s criticism in a Tuesday statement by emphasizing visitors’ positive experiences.
“Everyone who sees the Obama Presidential Center is blown away by its beauty, scale and the way it will be an economic engine for Chicago and a beacon of hope for the world,” a spokesperson wrote in a statement to The Hill.

Is it any wonder the project is a disaster?
Don’t forget the bath-house!
Will the first books in the library be by Michelle or Barack?
Someone could take cuts in line and leave the other tripped and bruised on the floor.

Obama Foundation Likely Stored Classified Docs Illegally

The Obama Foundation-—— which finances his $900 million presidential center-——likely stored classified presidential records illegally in a private facility at Hoffman Estates in Illinois for more than a year after President Barack Obama left the White House, according to America First Legal (AFL).
In 2018, more than a year after Obama left the White House, the National Archives (NARA) and the Obama Foundation entered into an agreement to permit the foundation to maintain possession of presidential records for the purpose of digitizing and overseeing them as part of the Obama Presidential Center, AFL alleges. The agreement shows the Obama Foundation kept classified documents at a private facility in Hoffman Estates, AFL contends, noting that NARA moved the documents from a location in Hoffman Estates to a NARA-controlled facility in the estate to “conform with the agency’s archival storage standards.”
According to AFL, it is unknown whether the Obama Foundation’s original facility at the estate conformed with NARA’s “archival storage standards,” raising the likelihood that the foundation illegally stored classified information. In addition, to facilitate the transaction from the original facility to a location that conformed to NARA’s standards, the Obama Foundation paid NARA $3,300,000, America First Legal asserts. The payments present “the appearance of a conflict of interest, if NARA looked the other way upon learning that the Obama Foundation was illegally storing classified records,” the legal defense fund wrote.
AFL filed a Freedom of Information Act request on April 28 with the National Archives to ascertain the events surrounding the Obama Foundation’s storage of classified documents at the Hoffman Estates. Along with other information, the legal defense fund requested: (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
It’s ugly as heck
Looks like something between a mausoleum and a grain elevator.
Maybe it’s dual purpose.
Sounds like someone is a little out of touch with reality.
Official US govt portrait Nigerian Wally Adeyomo, Biden’s US Treasury hire.
Nigerian Wally Adeyomo is an experienced Democrat and more than proved his worth.
<>he was Biden’s US Treasury hire,
<>Adeyemo abruptly fled Treasury when Trump came in.
<>he fled Treasury leaving $4.7 trillion in unidentified Treasury payments.
<>refusals to handover documents chronicling Treasury activities abound
<>the Nigerian once headed Obama’s “Foundation” which made Obama “a billionaire.”
<>is this why Obama wont discuss his Foundation finances?
The incredible likeness of being. Or some such.
🤔
I have seen pictures and that thing is hideous looking.
The building looks like one of those flak towers Hitler built around Berlin at the end of the war. Also the Tower of Babel.

Michele O took one look and wet into urgent therapy treatment....../s.
“a world-class museum”
LOL! Choom and bong pipes? His old VW bus where they took hits from the roof? Collections of his speeches on an iPod? Michelle’s “tucking underwear”?
What else could go in there?
Obama’s Presidential Center is a world-class museum, a gym,
and a fruit and vegetable garden....including a watermelon patch.
I say it looks like a WWII German flak tower.
Is it any wonder why a female gorilla needs a life change?
