    Barack Obama was the star attraction at Joe Biden’s virtual fundraiser yesterday. In financial terms, the event was ( highly successful). More than 175,000 people donated a total of $7.6 million, according to the Biden campaign. In the daily Wall Street Journal Washington bureau email this morning, Ken Thomas adds that a separate component of the event for high-dollar donors raised $3.4 million for an overall haul of $11 million for the event. The latter event was closed to the media. Trump campaign director of strategic communications Marc Lotter plucked a highlight from Biden’s remarks even though NPR reports in...
  • Obama VA in 2015: “Become a Kung Flu Fighter! Get Your Flu Shot!”

    Well, this is embarrassing for the media and the Democrats. After being attacked as “racist” for using the jocular term “Kung flu” for the COVID-19 coronavirus, it turns out President Trump is not the first in government to use that term. The Obama administration used the term “Kung flu” in September 2015 for a Veterans Affairs campaign promoting flu shots. The flu shot campaign featured an image of a mask(!) wearing martial arts fighter in action.

    Joe Biden and Barack Obama reunited for the first time in the 2020 election cycle for a grassroots fundraiser Tuesday evening that raised more than $11 million according to the campaign -- the best fundraising event for the former vice president so far. More than 175,000 grassroots donors raised $7.6 million for the event -- a total alone that topped the $6 million brought in by a fundraiser with Sen. Elizabeth Warren last week, previously their best event of the 2020 cycle. The event was the first fundraising effort by Obama, who praised his former second-in-command as the man for...

    On Monday, President Donald Trump implied that former President Barack Obama committed treason over the investigation into Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign’s alleged contacts with Russia. “Treason. Treason. It’s treason,” Trump told CBN News, saying his team was “spied” in the last election during the Russia probe. “They’d been spying on my campaign,” Trump said. “Turned out I was right. Let’s see what happens to them now.”

    Author and activist Naomi Klein was on a visit to Sydney last November when Donald Trump shocked the US and Western political establishment by taking the White House. "I think a great many of us felt that the world had just turned upside down, but [in Australia] I literally felt the world had turned upside down," she says, recalling that moment of supreme disorientation. Since then, unlike many American liberals, Klein has been fixated less by the drip-drip of revelations about the Trump campaign's murky links to the Kremlin, and more with what she calls the "corporate coup" taking place...

    President Trump on Monday suggested without evidence that his predecessor, former President Obama, committed treason in connection with the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia.“Treason. Treason. It’s treason,” Trump said in an interview with CBN News. The president did not elaborate on the specific charge but repeated his assertion that the previous administration “spied” on his campaign in the course of the Russia probe.“They’d been spying on my campaign,” Trump told CBN News’s David Brody. “Turned out I was right. Let’s see what happens to them now.”Trump signaled he was looking forward to the results of U.S. Attorney...

    In a 5-4 decision, the US Supreme Court ruled that President Trump cannot undo President Obama's executive order awarding privileges to individuals illegally brought into this country by their parents. Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts explained that "while President Obama had no legal authority to issue the original DACA decree, it can't be undone without doing immeasurable harm to those who came to rely upon it. It is kind of like 'squatters' rights' where a person illegally takes possession of someone else's land, but evades detection and eviction for a period of time sufficient to earn a...

    On Father’s Day 2008, candidate Barack Obama made his most honest speech on race, maybe his only halfway honest speech on race. The media barely noticed. The site was the Apostolic Church of God in Chicago. From the pulpit Obama spoke to the gathered voters -- excuse me, congregants -- with uncharacteristic audacity. He reminded his audience that too many black fathers were missing from “too many homes.” He knew something of the phenomenon himself given that his father “left us when I was two years old.” Yes, that con again. Putting aside for a moment his personal story, however...

    Los Angeles Lakers chief executive officer and governor Jeanie Buss shared a photograph of a letter on her Instagram account Friday containing racist and misogynistic epithets "so that everyone can see the hate is real and living out there," she wrote. The two-sentence letter, composed on a typewriter, begins with "Dear Whore" and continues with more vitriol.

    The Supreme Court of the United States ruled Thursday that the Trump administration’s plan to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was illegal. Chief Justice John Roberts was the swing vote in the 5-4 decision. The dissenting opinion was written by Justice Thomas: “Separation of powers? We don’t need no stinkin’ separation of powers: we’ve got the Supreme Court.” I don’t know what the progressive cabal has on Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts, but have it they do. So take your little elephant friend and go away while we fundamentally transform Amerika. Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

    Just a reminder, both BLM and NFL Anthem Kneeling started under Obama: In 2013, the movement began with the use of the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter on social media after the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of African-American teen Trayvon Martin in February 2012. The movement became nationally recognized for street demonstrations following the 2014 deaths of two African Americans: Michael Brown—resulting in protests and unrest in Ferguson, a city near St. Louis—and Eric Garner in New York City. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Lives_Matter In the 49ers' third preseason game in 2016, Kaepernick sat during the playing of the U.S. national anthem prior...

    President Trump, in the wake of Thursday's defeat at the Supreme Court in his efforts to repeal the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, called for new justices as conservatives took aim at Chief Justice John Roberts for what they called a “pattern” of siding with the liberal wing in key decisions. “The recent Supreme Court decisions, not only on DACA, Sanctuary Cities, Census, and others, tell you only one thing, we need NEW JUSTICES of the Supreme Court. If the Radical Left Democrats assume power, your Second Amendment, Right to Life, Secure Borders, and m Religious Liberty,...

    WOODLAWN - Dozens of members of a coalition fighting for affordable housing protections in the neighborhoods surrounding the future Obama Presidential Center set up a “tent city” Thursday in a city-owned, vacant lot, warning that’s what the city could look like if people are displaced. Members of the Obama CBA Coalition set up for the day in Woodlawn to outline their demands. Their expansive community benefits agreement, drafted to prevent displacement in advance of the Obama Presidential Center’s planned construction in Jackson Park, has stalled in City Council for nearly a year. Organizers are demanding changes to the scaled-back protections...

    From 2016, fast forward to 2020The first half of the year 2020 was too eventful. A lot of extraordinary things have happened and will probably continue to occur in the second half of this year. Nevertheless, it will be useful for all of us to recall what the primary reason was that led to political turbulence on American soil again. The root cause of the 2020 events was the refusal of the Democrats to accept the results of the 2016 elections.Had Princess Hillary ascended to the throne, all the prerequisites for building an American version of the Gulag would be...
  • Where are all the guns and ammo purchased under Obama?

    American Thinker ^ | 18 Jun, 2020 | John Watson
    During the last two years of the Obama administration, some unusual purchases were made. Large quantities of ammunition were purchased, as were firearms, mostly for somewhat obscure agencies or agencies with no real need for such weaponry. Estimates are that over 1 billion rounds of ammunition were ordered, which resulted in making ammunition scarce for the normal civilian market. Also significant was Obama's troublesome statement made during his campaign, as follows: We cannot continue to rely only on our military ... we've got to have a civilian security force just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded. We cannot...

    HOUSTON – The surveillance video is difficult to watch. Four guys can be seen walking up to another man leaving an Exxon convenience store in Harris County and beating him up. The victim identified himself as Mason. He never let go of his groceries as his attackers took turns punching and kicking him on the ground. He was alone for only several seconds when a fifth attacker walked up. “He comes up to me, kicks me in the face, and screams, “Black Lives Matter, b****!” Mason said.
