Obama’s 2019 message: 'We've got a lot of work to do'

Former President Obama took to Twitter on Tuesday to share his New Year's message, saying "we've got a lot of work to do."

“In 2018 people stepped up and showed up like never before,” Obama said on Twitter.

“Keep it up in 2019,” he continued. “We’ve got a lot of work to do, and I’ll be right there with you. Happy New Year, everybody!”

Over the weekend, the former president also shared a few stories about some of the young leaders he said inspired him in 2018.

Obama ended his weekend series of tweets with the hope that his followers would also find inspiration in the stories he shared.

Leaders like Dejah Powell, who started an organization to bring health and wellness resources to communities on the South Side of Chicago, expanding food access and providing people the space and time to take care of themselves. — Barack Obama (@BarackObama) December 29, 2018

Leaders like Moussa Kondo and Sandor Lederer, who are each doing their part to fight corruption in their native countries of Mali and Hungary. Two people separated by continents but united in their pursuit of a more just, transparent society. — Barack Obama (@BarackObama) December 29, 2018

Leaders like Hong Hoang, who mobilized a youth-led movement to create a greener world after becoming the first Vietnamese person to visit Antarctica. — Barack Obama (@BarackObama) December 29, 2018

Leaders like Jonny Boucher, a Chicago native who, after losing too many friends and family to suicide, started a coffee shop to offer emotional support and guidance to those who might be in need of a little more than a strong cup of coffee to get through their day. — Barack Obama (@BarackObama) December 29, 2018

“I hope you find inspiration in the stories of Dejah, Moussa, Sandor, Hong and Jonny. Their journeys began with a decision to build the better future they wanted to see. The same is true for you,” he said.

Here's how the Halfrican and his wife used presidential policy to rip off hundreds of millions of dollars.

PHASE ONE
<><> With 100 million dollar stars in her eyes, then-First Lady Michelle makes a big deal about teaching Muslim Girls.

My, she looks sincere doesn't she?

PHASE TWO
- she travels to Morocco with the promise of $100 million tax dollars "to teach Muslim girls”----
to be held by the Obama Foundation ---to be "doled out" when needed. ROTFLOL.

Look at that smile----Obama gave her $100 million tax dollars "to teach Muslim girls."
The $100 mill "for Morocco" is to be held by the Chicago-based tax-exempt Obama Foundation----
The altruistic foundation will dole it out "when needed" (cue laugh machine here).

They are still pursuing Obama-era policies at the State Dept, deliberately sabotaging President Trump on Iran policy, relations with Israel, the Paris Accords and other issues........several prominent Obama officials who have knowledge of the mega-billions Iran deal are still at the State Dept.
<><> Sahar Nowrouzzadeh, in charge of Iran and the Persian Gulf region on the policy planning staff,
<><> a former John Kerry apprentice, Michael Ratney, occupies the Israeli-Palestinian portfolio,
<><> trusted Obama aide, Yael Lempert, served under Tillerson on the same platform.

REFERENCE--- GETTING RICH QUICK ON PRESIDENTIAL FOREIGN POLICY
Obama's $1.3B giveaway to Iran was paid in cash Jan 22 and Feb 5 from a little-known fund administered by the US Treasury.The so-called Judgment Fund is made up of tax dollars Congress has permanently approved in the event it's needed....

SOURCE: fiscaltreasury.gov. -----The Judgment Fund was established to pay court judgments and Justice Department compromise settlements of actual or imminent lawsuits against the government. It is administered by the Judgment Fund Section, which is a part of the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service. The Judgment Fund Internet Claims System (JFICS) is the application used to process all Judgment Fund claims.

The Judgment Fund is a permanent, indefinite appropriation available to pay judicially and administratively ordered monetary awards against the United States. The Judgment Fund is also available to pay amounts owed under compromise agreements negotiated by the U.S. Department of Justice in settlement of claims arising under actual or imminent litigation, if a judgment on the merits would be payable from the Judgment Fund. The statutory authority for the Judgment Fund is 31 U.S.C. 1304.

If funds for paying an award are otherwise provided for in the appropriations of the defendant agency, the Judgment Fund may not pay an award. A federal agency may request that payment of an award be made on its behalf from the Judgment Fund only in those instances where funds are not legally available to pay the award from the agency's own appropriations.

Amounts paid vary significantly from year-to-year. Federal agencies are not required to reimburse the Judgment Fund except when cases are filed under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) or the No FEAR Act (Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act).

We can be contacted at judgment.fund@fiscal.treasury.gov or 202-874-6664.

Sandor Lederer is funded by the Open Government Partnership, with a Soros connection. It's beyond irritating that people like Obama and Soros think they are so ‘progressive’ and ‘on the side of history’ and ‘anti-ignorance’ etc., when in stark reality they are among the most clueless human beings on the planet. People like them, the self-convinced, are generally always behind disasters like the dismantling of Venezuela.

As for the project to help in the South Side of Chicago, I applaud this, but when Obama had the Presidency he did nothing to help stop the violence that has torn apart the South Side of Chicago. His buddy Rahm also did nothing to help stop this violence - or to promote potential avenues to stop the progressive decay that has made much of the South Side a hell to live in. There is a large swath of Lake Michigan waterfront property on the South Side of Chicago that use to be US Steel South Works. It could be developed into something that would spur a Renaissance on the South Side (at least in specific areas), but every plan to do something there has fallen through. It could even become a very modern research and technology park, providing jobs and drawing from the STEM graduates from U of Chicago, U of I, Northwestern, and other Chicago-area universities, and become the nidus for remaking of the South Side.

But, Obama’s foray into ‘building’ on the South Side has been concentrated on acquiring public park land on which to build his Presidential Library.

I'm really tired of the do nothing, narcissistic, self-convinced, delusional and destructive left - wrapping itself up in a cloak of virtue.
