Do tell.
When the history of this extraordinary two-week period of American politics is written, the fingerprints of Obama and Pelosi will be far more apparent than currently known, people familiar with the matter tell CNN, as the Democratic elders have served as a guidepost for a party in panic.
What that really means is the Dems are short of leadership. Biden can’t really provide it. But with him in the way, no one else can either.
Donors have been applying their pressure and so have the politicians they fund. But only Biden can step down. And Biden has plenty of grudges against Obama from both 2016, where he was sidelined in favor of Hillary, and 2020 where Obama dragged out his endorsement. Obama knows he can’t just tell Biden to drop out. It could backfire.
So where are Obama’s fingerprints?
There are proxies doing that dirty work, including a lot of Obama vets, and lately George Clooney, who ran his op-ed past Obama, and that’s beginning to turn some Bidenites against Obama.
Apart from the far Left, some of the loudest high-profile voices urging Biden not to run or to step down were coming from people in Obama’s orbit like David Axelrod. But if this was supposed to be slick, it’s not.
I don’t doubt that Barry’s little elves are about, acting as anonymous inside sources, working the phones, calling reporters, and spreading the same material about Biden we keep seeing throughout the media.
As has been noted, Clooney seemed to be echoing a line from Ben Rhodes, the Obama whisperer, a close adviser and speechwriter who was expert at seeding the media with narratives, raising the question of whether the op-ed had actually been written by Obama’s people.
How much of what we’re seeing is really a collection of upset party insiders and how much of it is Obamaworld?

Obama wants that fourth term!
The foreign enemy usurper continues his secret machinations to destroy America and commit genocide against White Christians. Despite having been raised by whites, he has an intense hatred for, and is singularly focused on, destroying them.
So far Biden has been able to push back and beat down Obama, that will crush Obama’s status as the number one power broker party leader - he knows it.
I expect the Obama tactics to intensify, Obama with his neck way out cannot let infirm biden beat him.
George Clooney is known as an actor, not a writer. I believe George Clooney has never been credited as a screenwriter for a movie or television series. Either George Clooney paid someone to write this opinion piece or a fellow Democrat has written this opinion for him.
I still do not believe Obama, the Hawaii choom-gang pot-smoking slacker, cocaine user, closeted homosexual and man who could not write his own biography is in charge of anything.
George Clooney’s wife is a prominent British barrister.
Obama and Pelosi’s fingerprints on the disaster that has been the Bden Administration go back a lot farther than just two weeks.
Yet another very excellent article from Greenfield.
One thing to emphasize imho:
Obama is not his own actor.
Obama (or whatever his real name might be) is (and always has been) a sockpuppet of and for the SorozNazi and communist and Islamic Saudi Arab dictators that found, groomed, and positioned him in our White House
it is certainly wise and correct to watch what “O” is doing. But to ALSO pull aside the veil and keep an even closer watch on those in control
his wife wrote it
I see it another way. Obama knows his ideology is BS yet he sells it to the Dumb Masses and they eat it up. It’s not so much hatred as deep seeded Contempt for his followers especially the whites who should know so much better than to believe in nonsense as ‘income redistribution’ etc.
I don’t doubt that Barry’s little elves are about,>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
They are mpre than “about.” This is BAry’s thrid term and he now wants a 4th by selecting thenext sock puppet....Joes as a sock puppet has gone limp.
Trump will beat them all if we stand to. Tyhis is about t heentore futire of AMerica, will we continue to be the Unioted STates of AMerica, or a nation populated by minority and ethnic serfs who speak little English,and who accept fascism in the new United Socialist Islamic States of Zimbabwe.
Barry needs another term as puppet master to bring about the transfpormatrion of America according to the ideology of REv, Ralph Wright who Barry listend to on Sunday for 24 yearss in Chicago: “ God Damn AMerica, and the white man.”
What do you think CRT and DEI are all about?
No...Barry and his little Muslim supporting conversionist fascists need to be shown the door. And soon.Deny them their next socl puppet.It moihght be the only good thing that Biden has ever done.
“Despite having been raised by whites, he has an intense hatred for, and is singularly focused on, destroying them.”
Sadly, that’s an ever-growing list.
Hillary?

Above link is to an old thread with an even older booklet called “The Revolution Was”, written in 1938 about FDR. I posted this a LOT during the Obama years as he and FDR are so much a like. Some of FDR’s speeches sound just like Obama. The premise of the booklet was that the Communist revolution in America happened with FDR and The New Deal. My premise is that Obama continued it.
Anyway - an excerpt:
No politically adult people [Americans] could ever have been so little conscious of revolution. There was here no revolutionary tradition, as in Europe...
In the naive American mind the word revolution had never grown up... It called up scenes from Carlyle and Victor Hugo, or it meant killing the Czar with a bomb, as he may have deserved for oppressing his people. Definitely, it meant the overthrow of government by force...
Revolution in the modern ease is no longer an uncouth business....Outside of the Communist party and its aurora of radical intellectuals few Americans seemed to know that revolution had become a department of knowledge, with a philosophy and a doctorate of its own, a language, a great body of experimental data, schools of method, textbooks, and manuals...
To the revolutionary this same dreary stuff was the most exciting reading in the world. It was knowledge that gave him a sense of power. One [like Bill Ayers] who mastered the subject to the point of excellence could be fairly sure of a livelihood by teaching and writing, that is, by imparting it to others, and meanwhile dream of passing at a single leap from this mean obscurity to the prestige of one who assists in the manipulation of great happenings; while one who mastered it to the point of genius that one [Obama] might dream of becoming himself the next Lenin.
thankyou
one could argue that the communist (or something akin to it) revolution in USA began with the Progressive movement of the 1900-1916 era
or even the Populist movement of the 1870-1900 era.
However that all may play out,
there are a couple things we could learn from it all,
1. hard times or difficult situations make for public demands that “something needs to be done” to improve things.
Marx was appalled at the (sometimes deplorable) exploitation of child labour in the UK. The Populists were struggling to keep their farms during the great post-Civil-War USA depression of 1870-1900. The Progressives were, in part, responding to the excesses and dangers of the Industrial Revolution (dangerous factory working conditions, sometimes oppressively low wages...). FDR was dealing with the Great Depression...
2. there will always be economic down cycles
3. there will always be SOME people who will unreasonably exploit other people, creating or sustaining unnecessary hardships
3. there will always be some politicians (Whether sincerely-well motivated or cynical opportunists) who will jump to the occasion and offer “solutions”
4. many of these solutions involve spending more money (higher taxes) or restricting Americans’ civil liberties (repressive), or both
5. many of these solutions involve dividing American citizens into sub-groups with the natural tendency of pitting them against each other (thus, more racism, anti-Christian, anti-semitism, more “class warfare” as the chief source of funding for the new programs is from those that have it to remit)
What I take away from all this is,
we must be eternally vigilant to try to protect what remaining liberties we have from the politicians and their “movements” or street gangs. Since the causative or enabling factors for more communistic or oppressive “solutions” will always arise (the economic cycle is pretty innate, as are some evil tendencies in how people can behave).
the problem won’t disappear either by virtue of the communistic programs suddenly starting to work, solve them. Neither will the problem disappear through some sudden magical change for the better in human nature.
Since, imho, neither of these improvements are likely to happen.
:The price of liberty is eternal vigilance”
Cheer,
Shelly? Here we come?
