Obama, President for Life

On January 20th at 12:01 EST the baton of leadership of the United States of America will be passed from Barack Hussein Obama to Donald J. Trump.  This seemingly innocuous event has been a tradition in the United States ever since George Washington passed off leadership to John Adams. Yet, this inauguration seems to oddly stand out. Ever president since Woodrow Wilson has left Washington D.C. after the new president takes over. Obama will be doing no such thing. Rather, he will be moving a mere 2 miles away into nine-bedroom, eight-and-a-half-bathroom estate the Obamas are renting from former Clinton administration Press Secretary Joe Lockart and wife Giovanna Gray, who paid $5.3 million for it in 2014.

With Obama making it clear in the past that he is not following Presidential tradition and remaining quiet during Trump’s Presidency coupled with the view of the White House that Trump was helped by Russia to win the Presidency, Obama’s proximity to the White House for the considerable future gives him a continuous bully pulpit not confined by Presidential decorum.  Rather, Obama will be continued to be visited by the international media as a kind of “moral compass” or “stop valve” to Trump’s actions.

Washington DC is set to be rocked by an unprecedented amount of protests in an around the inauguration.  This is only the beginning.  At 12:01 Trump will be President and Obama will become his permanent adversary and the new National Community Organizer and Chief.  If you think the protests will be violent tomorrow, an Obama unshackled by the confines of the Presidency will ensure they will become a permanent part of the American landscape.  Obama’s own post-Presidential bully pulpit will be used to turn the country against any and all  Trump actions the Left deems “fascist.”

Obama is not going anywhere. He will simply be crowned by Hollywood and the media as President for life. America is certainly changing.

[watch] Huckabee: Absurd to Say Putin Impacted the Election

Featured Image Source: Gage Skidmore

With the latest intelligence report indicating the Russians were behind the DNC hack, Democrats have tried to use the findings to delegitimize Donald Trump’s presidency.  Governor Mike Huckabee points out that the problem with this is that, the hacking took place before anyone new who the Republican nominee was and that the report clearly states, that no actual voting machines were hacked.

President-Elect Trump also reacted to the report.

Ultimately what we see is that instead of losing graciously it is the Democrats who are not giving into the election results. Isn’t that what they said Trump would do?

Why is the DNC Hosting a Candidate Forum at an Anti-Israel Restaurant?

The Democratic National Committee decided to host its candidate forum at a restaurant known for its anti-Israel views. Candidates for the top DNC post will participate in a candidate forum later this month at Busboys and Poets in Washington, D.C., according to a Politico report.

The restaurant is owned by Andy Shallal, an Iraqi-born political activist who uses his venue to advance a far-left political agenda. More specifically Shallal is anti-Israel activist.

“Israel continues to violate international law … while the U.S. and its allies sit on the side, getting its marching orders from Tel Aviv,” Shallal said during the World Says No to the Israel Occupation rally in 2007. “Folks, this is not an accident—this is a plan to create a new American-Israeli century, and those who dare to speak out will be squashed.”

With the Democrats under fire for their increasing shift to an openly anti-Israel agenda, one wonders why they chose to allow the forum to take place at Shallal’s restaurant. The answer is, they just don’t care.

According to the Washington Free Beacon, the restaurant has hosted numerous 9/11 truther events, fundraisers for the Gaza Flotilla, and even a speech by Bill Ayers.

BREAKING NEWS: Is Obama About to Start WW3 With Russia?

With 15 days to go until Donald Trump becomes the 45th President of the United States, Barack Obama seems bent on starting a war with Russia. In response to Putin moving nuclear armed missles into Kalingrad, Obama has moved US special forces up to the border between Lithuania and Russia.

Lithuanian Defence Ministry spokeswoman Asta Galdikaite confirmed America has offered additional military support following Russia’s annexation of Crimea.

She said: “The United States was the first to offer additional safety assurance measures to the Baltic countries following the deterioration of the security situation in the region after the annexation of the Crimea. US Special Operations Forces presence in Lithuania is one of the deterrents” against military threats by Putin’s aggressive regime.”

This move along side the expelling of 25 Russian diplomats will increase the tension between the two powers.  With Trump coming into power very shortly, it is hard to find a reason why Obama has chosen now to increase the special forces presence in these countries.
