Author Ed Klein told Pete Hegseth on Fox and Friends Weekend this morning that Barack Obama is setting up a shadow government in Washington DC to undermine President Trump after Inauguration Day.
"Ed Klein: For the past 100 years every president who is outgoing has packed up his stuff gone home and not criticized his successor. This is not what the Obamas are planning to do. They rented an eight-bedroom mansion in the section of Washington near Joe Lockhart, Bill Clinton’s last press secretary. In that house there’s enough room for Valerie Jarrett and Michelle and the kids. A place for ten cars to park. They are setting up what they are calling a shadow government.
Pete Hegseth: The Obamas claim it is because the children want to stay in D.C..
Ed Klein: That’s not the real reason they are staying there. They are staying there because despite what the president said in his press conference, he’s in a sense of outrage over this incoming Trump Administration, which he thinks is going to wipe out his legacy. So he’s setting up this kind of almost insurgency, picking people in foreign affairs, labor, abortion, union matters and setting them up to start appearing on television, making speeches and doing op-ed pieces for next four years, you’re going to see not only a Trump Administration but you’re going to see a shadow government opposing the Trump…"
Klein said it was an insurgency by the left starting on Inauguration Day with the mass demonstrations organized by Michael Moore.
Actually the attacks started this past week when classless Michelle Obama whined to Oprah that Americans have lost hope.

Obama has done absolutely nothing since he has been president. Now that he is leaving, he wants to do something.
No, he’s going to find himself and his minions on trial for treason and a myriad of other crimes..
Remove his Secret Service detail for a few days and see what happens...
What has been true about brocko from day one is a two-sided fact: no one respects him; but some find him useful. Once he is out of office, he will still be disrespected; but he will be of no use to anyone. Mark my words. He is done as an influence in America.
What he might be capable of doing on a world forum may be an issue; but I doubt it. He is not respected there, either. He is too lazy anyway, and feckless, effete.
Stick a fork in him; he’s done.
Obama’s 3 rd term
If this happens he will,spend the next 4 years sucking all the oxygen out of the democrat party
Perhaps a gift that will keep,on giving
Imagine the MEdia running obama f or the next 4 years
There’s a ratings winner ....
Said. No. One. Ever.
Whatever Obama chooses to do is immaterial.
What must be done is that his crimes, his treason and his subversion, and that of his administration, must be endlessly exposed and discredited.
Gloves: off.
This is not GW Bush time anymore.
Mr Trump, jail the BASTARD!
A significant part of the opposition always stays in DC, in think tanks and advocacy organizations, law firms, and “journalism.” These people will get just as much traction as the press gives them. But the opposition party ALWAYS has a shadow establishment. It’s the way the rotation of power works.
Yawn.
Unlike most Republicans who have sought the Presidency in recent years, Trump is not afraid to play hard ball. That’s why he was elected.
Perhaps the Trump administration will uncover and deal with the crimes of the jug eared one.
First think I would do is declassify all of the dirt on the Clintons. From Arkansas to Haiti.
The people running the shadow government did the same thing to Otoken; that is why they illegally set up servers in their homes. Obama is nothing without his “phone and pen”; the power was always in whoever was typing for the teleprompter/cranking the hand organ.
Quietly, Trump is setting up a group that could counter this. Check the on what Kellyanne Conway is putting together. :-)
Me either. Obama does not have the energy or work ethic that Trump has.
sedition is against the law
ENFORCE THE LAW AND ARREST THESE PEOPLE
We will find out quickly if Donald Trump is a ‘law and order’ President.
The bigger picture is being lost in trivializing, e.g. ‘doing it for the kids’.
Obama’s legacy was to leave a Muslim controlled government...at least have Muslims in high positions where they couldn’t be removed except with great power.
His calling Muslim prayer 5 times a day in the White House should have alerted us all and his unwillingness to use the Bible during ceremonies requiring it...but the America MSM just could not report it and the reason they couldn’t or wouldn’t is because those who own the media have every reason for the world’s disparate cultures and countries to become one: MONEY and POWER.
If most of us are kept poor and disconnected, defranchised from voting and keeping our representative government, elites would have slaves, er, workers, forever.
Pizzagate is the Mac Daddy of all scandals in the history of the world, it’s real, and both Clintons, Both Obams, and the Podesta brothers are up to their eyeballs in it. Obama should be in a federal prison.
The whole concept of a “Shadow government” is a bit shady. To make it work, you have to be able to pay people who have actual influence. Otherwise it just becomes another rent-a-mob. While Soros could throw some $$ Obama’s way, he’d have to compete with lots of other existing groups. And something tells me Soros is gonna be cautious for a while.
Plus, that would be work. And Obama has always been more about hot air than details. At the end of the day, I expect to see him embrace the Clinton Foundation model: traveling, giving paid speeches, having affairs w/groupies and playing lots of golf.
