Obama delivers speech to Boeing after $10M donation made to his presidential center
Wash Exam | 1/28/19 | Diana Stancy Correll / FR Posted by DeathBeforeDishonor1
Former President Barack Obama delivered a speech at Boeing’s annual executive retreat earlier this month after the company donated $10 million to Obama’s library and museum in Chicago. Obama made an appearance at the retreat to provide leadership tips and waived his usual speaking fee for the occasion, Obama’s spokeswoman Katie Hill told Bloomberg. Just last year, former President George W. Bush also provided a speech at the same event.
A spokesman for the Obama Foundation, which is overseeing the creation of the Obama Presidential Center, did not disclose the exact amount Boeing donated to the library and museum fund, but noted that Boeing’s website says the gift was more than $1 million. Such a donation isn’t a first for Boeing, who previously donated $10 million to the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas.
“We’re proud to partner with both of these presidential centers,” Boeing spokesman Gordon Johndroe told Bloomberg. Johndroe said it is a priority for Boeing to build relationships in the “communities where we live and work,” given Boeing is headquartered in Chicago and has a new global services division in Dallas. Other speakers at the recent Boeing retreat included Magic Johnson, the Los Angeles Lakers’ president of basketball operations and former NBA star. (Excerpt) Read more at washingtonexaminer.com ...
====================================
BACKSTORY--THE BOEING SHAKEDOWN: Obama and Secy of State Hillary teamed up to manipulate US foreign policy.....
signing off on a $29B arms deal that got the Halfrican and the Clintons BIG, BIG BUCKS.
THE SCAM UPCLOSE---While Clinton was Secy of State (and Obama was in the WH dining room watching basketball),
the Boeing Corp. got State Dept clearance for a $29 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia, including Boeing’s F-15 fighter.
At that time, BOEING (cough) "GAVE" $900,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
And to get Obama to tear himself away from basketball, to sign off on the sales,
Boeing was strong-armed into signing up for the Halfrican's $10 million speech.
It’s interesting, for years we’re led to believe that the people running these gigantic corporations are the best and the brightest. They climbed the corporate ladder thru hard work. That’s why they get paid the big bucks. And then you read this and you have to wonder, who in the f*ck authorized that money?
Only an absolute moron would agree to fork over that kind of cash, especially when the “library” is under so much scrutiny, to listen to an even bigger moron read from a teleprompter.
It’s as if they think he just might have some sway with the current occupant of the White House, who has been busy, trying to undo all the damage Moron #1 did for 8 years.
