BARACK OBAMA AND HIS BANKSTER
INFESTED ADMIN ORCHESTRATED THE
GREATEST TRANSFER OF WEALTH TO
THE RICH IN AMERICAN HISTORY!
A new Gilded Age has emerged in America — a 21st century
version.
The wealth of the top 1% of
Americans has grown dramatically in the past four decades, squeezing both the middle
class and the poor. This is in sharp contrast to Europe and Asia, where the
wealth of the 1% has grown at a more constrained pace.
"Shame on Michelle and Barack Obama. They have the money and profile to make an important statement on this issue, but they obviously prefer to live in overwhelmingly white neighborhoods."
Did I mention that Michelle and Barry just purchased a $15 million estate in Martha’s Vineyard, which is 95 percent white?
Oh, and did I mention the Obamas own a second home, an $8 million mansion, in the exclusive DC neighborhood of Kalorama, which is 80 percent white and just four percent black.
Oh, and did I mention the Obamas have a third home, a $5.3 million mansion, in Rancho Mirage, California, which is 89 percent white and just 2.6 percent black.
Oh, sure, the Obamas still own their Chicago home in Hyde Park, which is at least 26 percent black. But you would think they could do better than 26 percent!
Pad fit for a president! Barack and Michelle Obama buy the $11.75 million seven-bedroom Martha's Vineyard home they fell in love with after renting it last summer
- The 29-acre estate includes a 6,900sq ft house with seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms
- Built in 2001, it also has a pool, chef's kitchen, outdoor fireplace, two guest wings, and a large sundeck
- Last year, the Obamas sold their summer home on the island for $15 million, having spent seven out of eight summers there while Barack was President

The Obamas are likely celebrating as they have closed the deal on a massive seven-bedroom mansion on Martha's Vineyard.
The former President and First Lady received the keys to their new mega-home which occupies 29 acres of beachfront property.
The couple have been eyeing up the property since staying there last summer after it was put on the market by Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck.
Barack and Michelle Obama have reportedly bought a sprawling estate in Martha's Vineyard from Boston Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck
Outside the main house, there's 29 beachfront acres, a pool (pictured), chef's kitchen, outdoor fireplace, and two guest wings. Grousbeck had the property on the market for four years, first listing it in 2015 for $22.5 million

The home was on the market for $14.85 million, and features seven-bedrooms and nine bathrooms inside the 7,000sq ft main residence

The house was originally listed for $14,850,000 but TMZ reports the Obamas managed to obtain a huge discount and secured the 6,900sq ft home for $11.75 million.
The enormous property has a swimming pool, outdoor fire pit and vaulted ceilings.
The are also two wings which run from the main house which is perfect to host guests.
Outdoors, the land comes with its own private beach, a boathouse and has plenty of land if the Obama's were hoping to expand.
'It's a remarkable home on an absolutely gorgeous setting,' listing agent Tom Wallace previously said 'privacy is a key feature of the property.
The Obamas won't be the first Presidential family to buy up on the Massachusetts Island. Jackie Kennedy-Onassis kept a home there until her death in 1994, and the summer resort was popular with the whole Kennedy dynasty

'It certainly has the capacity to expand to more of a compound. One could build two additional full-size properties if one wanted to create a generational meeting place' he added.
Their new home is on the edge of Edgartown Great Pond, with views of the Atlantic Ocean.
It features predominantly white interiors but is surrounded by emerald-green lawns.
Michelle and Barack will have a lot of space to relax, as the master bedroom opens up to a sundeck, while their daughters will have plenty of room to enjoy long summer breaks there.

The couple appeared to fall in love with the mansion last summer when they were renting it for their summer vacation.
Now, life can truly feel like a permanent holiday as the Presidential couple have now bought the home for themselves.
Last year, the Obamas sold their summer home on the island for $15 million. They are no strangers to the island having spent seven summers there while Barack was President.

Forget ‘Michelle for President’
Our
betters in the MSM, and related ruling-class mouthpieces, have set the
narrative: the lackluster, too-crazy pack of Democrat presidential
candidates, even with a few token billionaires, will ultimately give way to the
entry of Michelle Obama into the race. The former First Lady, author of
an apparently best-selling memoir, will inject palpable blue energy throughout
the nation, return black America to a 95+% Democrat voting bloc, consolidate
the Obama voting coalitions that won two presidential elections, and the evil
interloper Trump will be sent packing.
Don’t
buy this narrative.
In
a country of 320+ million people, there is always a sizable segment who will
not be willing or able to discern or question anything beyond what they are
told by the MSM, and will follow the narrative. That segment is actually
becoming smaller every year; the reality of fake news has diluted the MSM’s
influence to a far greater degree than they understand. But that’s not
why I’m not buying the narrative.
Here’s
why:
‘Obama’ is how we got Trump. For all the
gigabytes devoted to explaining how Donald Trump was elected President of the
United States, the simplest two-word explanation has always been: Barack
Obama.
Most
Americans never agreed with the radical left-wing policies that President Obama
instituted, nor did they appreciate his subtle, persistent denigration of
America’s character, identity and place in the world. But Americans did salute
to the notion that we should be especially careful not to criticize America’s
first black President.
In
short, the absence of strong criticism of President Obama and his policies was
not due to their popularity, but rather due to a surrender to the political
reality enforced in great degree by the MSM that any such criticism would be
labeled as racist. His policies and view of America were in fact alarming
to many Americans, who silently bided their time until he was out of office.
The
truth is that Barack Obama was and is a radical leftist ideologue who in his
own words sought to fundamentally transform America. A few
observers saw this agenda from the beginning of Obama’s appearance on the national
scene, but they were voices in a wilderness dominated by a sycophantic
media. The American people never supported a fundamental transformation
of their country -- in leftist terms, a shredding of America’s Judeo-Christian
heritage in favor of a godless, George Soros-vision of an Open Society,
directed and controlled by almighty secular government -- and the more they
understood the truth of who Obama was and what he was trying to do, the
angrier and more resentful they became.
Donald
Trump was the anti-Obama for one simple reason: he loves America.
And
so…the “Michelle Obama riding on the residual goodwill of the Obama name!”
campaign narrative, doesn’t resonate.
Three-plus
years later, with black unemployment the lowest in recorded history, polls that
show roughly a third of likely voting black Americans supporting President
Trump are not an accident or a fluke. (And they may just mark the floor of his support in
2020.) They reflect conscious recognition among black Americans of simple
truths: black lives generally did not get better under eight years of Obama;
black lives generally have gotten much better under less than three years of
President Trump.
And
so…the “Michelle Obama will bring back the good old days of black prosperity!”
campaign narrative falls flat.
Barack Obama is the elephant in the room re Barr/Durham. Of all the names that
engaged Americans associate with the Russia Collusion hoax -- Brennan, Clapper,
Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr, Rosenstein, Simpson, Steele, etc. --
there is one that is going to loom larger and larger in public thought as the
Horowitz IG report and Barr/Durham followup becomes public: Barack
Obama.
Our
own guess is that when
the truth finally comes out, Americans across the
political spectrum will be stunned at the level of criminality and corruption
in the Obama administration. It will shock the collective
conscience of the nation that all of this was directed to brazenly and
arrogantly overturning the will of the American people for the ugly but simple
reason that Donald Trump was an outsider who threatened the
Obama/leftist/globalist hold on power.
If
the Horowitz report and Barr/Durham follow-up reveals, as seems increasingly
likely, the deliberate and nefarious concoction of the Russia Collusion Hoax by
leaders in the CIA, FBI, and DoJ, the vast majority of Americans, including
millions who have historically identified themselves politically as Democrats,
will be fiercely offended at this historic, unconscionable abuse. And who
is at the top of all the plotting and scheming and lying and weaponization of
government against the will of the people? Barack Obama.
And
so…the ”Michelle Obama will bring back the days of the scandal-free Obama
administration!” campaign narrative reeks.
Michelle’s heart isn’t in it… and may not be a happy heart anyway. Mrs. Obama is on record
saying she has no interest in running, and of course, those words by themselves
mean nothing as to whether she will enter the race. But we think they do
signal that at her core, her heart is not in it. And ‘it’ refers to the
pressure, the nastiness, the unrelenting spotlight, the
every-word-and-every-smirk-on-video scrutiny of an American presidential race.
Michelle
Obama’s eight years in a soft, adulatory spotlight as First Lady are not the
same as the brass tacks rough-and-tumble of a presidential campaign. And
even if the MSM did everything in its power to shield her (and it surely
would), the MSM is not the gatekeeper it once was. Plus, winners
tend to be happy warriors. There has always seemed to be an undercurrent
of anger in Michelle Obama’s countenance, and if it ever flared on the campaign
trail, she could quickly find herself in a big hole. Anger doesn’t win
elections.
Michelle
Obama may or may not get into the race; it’s probably a 50/50 proposition at
this point. And if she does get in, she’ll have access to the best
messaging talent the left can buy. So she’d make waves for a
while. But soon enough, the reality of Barack Obama’s unpopularity, the reality
of the criminal abuse by his administration in trying to frame and otherwise
take down President Trump, and the reality of a booming economy helping all Americans, would
take the air out of her balloon. “Bring Back Barack” is not a winning campaign
theme. And if a tweet or two happened to get under her skin, the result
could be ugly.
“Michelle
Obama for President” is not inevitable or invincible.

Michelle Obama castigates whites for
‘running from us’
Speaking at an event in Chicago called the “Obama Foundation
Summit” (were any heads of state present?), Michelle Obama let slip her
resentment of white people. The grudge goes back to her childhood, and she does
not seem to see much progress in the behavior she attributes to
Caucasian-Americans. Fox News reports what the New
York Times doesn’t:
White Americans are “still running” elsewhere when minorities
and immigrants move into their communities, Michelle
Obama observed Tuesday.
(snip)
In a sit-down interview with journalist Isabel Wilkerson, in which
Obama was accompanied by her brother, Craig Robinson, an executive with the
NBA’s New York Knicks, Obama described when she first became conscious of
what’s been called “white flight.”
We were doing everything we were supposed to do – and better,”
Obama said of her family, recalling when they got a new address on Chicago’s
South Side. “But when we moved in, white families moved out.
“I want to remind white folks that y’all were running from us,”
she continued, according to the
Chicago Sun-Times. “And you’re still
running.”
This is remarkably un-self-aware, considering that the Obamas currently
reside in Kalorama and Martha’s Vineyard. How many blacks live near their two
mansions?
“I can’t make people not afraid of black people,” she said, according
to The Hill. “I don’t know what’s going
on. I can’t explain what’s happening in your head."
Maybe what’s going on in the heads of white people is the same as
what was going on in Jesse
Jackson’s head when he said:
“There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than
to walk down the street and hear footsteps... then turn around and see somebody
white and feel relieved.”
It would be wonderful if black crime rates were similar to those
of whites and Asians, but they aren’t. That’s is why many minorities flee from ghettos as soon as they
are financially able – a group that includes Barack and Michelle Obama.
Mrs. Obama is stoking racial resentment with her remarks, an
emotion that the Democrats use as part of their electoral strategy to drive
black turnout.
At least her statement castigating whites is consistent with her
oft-expressed position that she has “zero interest” in running for president.
Here is video of her remarks on race:

Nolte: Michelle Obama Condemns ‘White
Flight’ After Purchasing Home in Martha’s
Vineyard

Former first lady
Michelle Obama condemned white people for fleeing minority neighborhoods just
weeks after she and her husband purchased a $15 million estate in Martha’s Vineyard.
Martha’s Vineyard is almost as white
as an Elizabeth Warren rally.
Martha’s Vineyard is whiter than my
subdivision here in rural North Carolina.
Martha’s Vineyard is whiter than
MSNBC.
During a Tuesday appearance at the
Obama Foundation Summit in Chicago, she said, “But unbeknownst to us, we grew
up in the period — as I write — called ‘white flight.’ That as families like
ours, upstanding families like ours … As we moved in, white folks moved out
because they were afraid of what our families represented.”
“And I always stop there when I talk
about this out in the world because, you know, I want to remind white folks
that y’all were running from us.” She went on, “This family with all the values
that you’ve read about. You were running from us. And you’re still running,
because we’re no different than the immigrant families that are moving in … the
families that are coming from other places to try to do better.”
Did I mention that Michelle and
Barry just purchased a $15 million estate in Martha’s Vineyard, which is 95
percent white?
Oh, and did I mention the Obamas own
a second home, an $8 million mansion, in the exclusive DC neighborhood of Kalorama, which is 80
percent white and just four percent black.
Oh, and did I mention the Obamas
have a third home, a $5.3 million mansion, in Rancho Mirage, California, which
is 89 percent white and just 2.6 percent black.
Oh, sure, the Obamas still own their
Chicago home in Hyde Park, which is at least 26 percent black. But you would
think they could do better than 26 percent!
I like Michelle Obama. I have always
liked Michelle Obama. I’ve never said an unkind word about her, quite the
opposite, and while I find her politics ignorant, she was a terrific first
lady.
But this is nuts…
Not only is she attacking white
people for seeking a better standard of living, which I can assure you (as I
will explain below) has little to do with racism, she is also attacking whites
after she herself “fled” to 95 percent white Martha’s Vineyard (I will never
stop repeating this point) and two other homes in areas where the black
population is less than 5 percent.
Worse still, she is putting white
people in a position where they can never win, where they are damned if they do
or don’t, where they are always and forever racist.
If white people move out of a black
neighborhood, they’re racists engaging in white flight.
But…
And this is important…
If white people move into a minority
neighborhood, they are also racists for either engaging in gentrification —
which is just another form of cultural genocide, donchaknow — or cultural
appropriation.
Now I’m going to tell you a little
something about white flight, from my own experience…
Because I was poor, back in the
mid-eighties, I lived in the inner-city of Milwaukee for two years. My wife and
I did not flee (my wife is not white, by the way) because of “icky minorities”
(did I mention my wife is not white?), we fled because it was not safe to live
there. It was never safe. Over those two years, we had been mugged, robbed, and
had our car stolen. That’s why we left.
And when we fled, it was to a
community that was still not as white as *ahem* Martha’s Vineyard.
In 2002, my wife and I moved to
California for nine years and lived in an East Los Angeles neighborhood that
was just four percent white. For
nearly a decade, I was outnumbered 96-4 and never gave it a thought because I
was not outnumbered. A darker skin tone, an accent, and different religious
traditions did not make my neighbors any less American than me, and when I am
among Americans I am among my own. We left because predominantly white leftists
are destroying California.
Then there’s my poor dad…
He moved to the Northside of
Milwaukee in 1980, and spent decades, a lot of money, and a ton of sweat,
remodeling his home, building a garage, and paying that home off. He intended
to retire there. And yes, there were black people in his neighborhood when he
moved in, and for most of his adult life he worked in predominantly black
institutions. He never intended to move, and held on for as long as he could… He
didn’t flee because of black people. He was not forced to start all over at age
67 because he suddenly decided he didn’t like blacks. He left because he was
robbed, because gangs started tagging his house and garage, because it was no
longer safe to live there.
You know…
If we’re going to shame people for
such things, what does it say to black people when other black people,
especially the first black president and his family, reject them? What the hell
kind of message is this to send to black Americans, especially when the Obamas
can afford the security to live safely in any neighborhood they choose?
And if the Obamas wanted to live in
Southern California, why choose Rancho Mirage over Ladera Heights, the Black
Beverly Hills, a predominantly black neighborhood as swank as any in America?
Shame on Michelle and Barack Obama.
They have the money and profile to make an important statement on this issue,
but they obviously prefer to live in overwhelmingly white neighborhoods.
Pollak: Barack
Obama Wrote the Playbook on
Political Division
Political Division
Left-wing pundits have accused President Donald Trump of using his
tweets last weekend to launch a divisive re-election campaign.
David
Axelrod, former adviser to President Barack Obama, tweeted: “With his deliberate, racist outburst,
@realDonaldTrump wants to raise the profile of his targets, drive Dems to
defend them and make them emblematic of the entire party. It’s a cold, hard
strategy.”
That is
debatable — but if so, Axelrod should know; Obama did it first.
By 2011,
Obama knew that re-election would be difficult. The Tea Party had just led the
Republicans to a historic victory in the 2010 midterm elections, winning the
House and nearly taking the Senate. The economy was only growing sluggishly,
and Obama’s stimulus had failed to keep unemployment below eight percent, as
projected. Moreover, the passage of Obamacare had provoked a backlash against
Obama’s state-centered model of American society.
Facing a
similar situation in the mid-1990s, President Bill Clinton had “triangulated,”
moving back toward the middle, frustrating the GOP by taking up their issues,
such as welfare reform.
But Obama
rejected that approach. Having watched his icon, Chicago mayor Harold
Washington, settle for an incremental approach when
faced with opposition in the 1980s, only to die of a sudden heart attack before
fulfilling his potential, Obama chose the path of hard-left policy — and
divide-and-rule politics.
The first
hint of his strategy emerged during the debt ceiling negotiations in the summer
of August 2011. As Bob Woodward recounted in his book about the
crisis, The Price of Politics, then-Speaker
of the House John Boehner (R-OH) had wanted to reach a “grand bargain” with the
president on long-term spending cuts. But Obama blew up that agreement by
demanding $400 billion in new taxes, to his aides’ surprise. Obama wanted an
opponent, not a deal. (Last week, Boehner told Breitbart
News Tonight that Obama’s decision was his worst
disappointment in 35 years of politics.)
In the
fall of 2011, a new left-wing movement, Occupy Wall Street, was launched. A mix
of communists, anarchists, and digital pranksters, the Occupy
movement cast American society as a struggle between the “99 percent” and
the “one percent.”
Obama and then-House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) embraced the movement — and
failed to distance themselves from it even as it collapsed into violence, sexual assault, and
confrontations with police.
Instead,
Obama picked up on Occupy’s themes and used them to shape his campaign.
In
December 2011, Obama gave a speech at Osawatomie, Kansas — a
place steeped in radical symbolism — at which he
doubled down on his left-wing policies. He focused on the issue of economic
inequality, and attacked the idea that the free market could lift the middle
class to prosperity. “This isn’t about class warfare. This is about the
nation’s welfare,” he insisted.
Then, in
the spring of 2012, Obama made a controversial play on race. When a black teen,
Trayvon Martin, was killed in Florida during a scuffle with neighborhood watch
volunteer George Zimmerman, Al Sharprton — who was serving as an informal
adviser to Obama at the time — made the local crime story into a
national racial controversy. Obama, following Sharpton’s lead, weighed
in: “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon,” Obama said at the time.
Poll
numbers suggest that race relations, which had
been improving, dropped precipitously after that. But to Obama, it was worth
it: the campaign needed to find a way to motivate minority voters. (Vice
President Joe Biden did his part, telling black voters that GOP nominee Mitt
Romney was “gonna put y’all in chains.”)
Trump is
pushing a non-racial, nationalist message. But if he actually wanted to divide
America for political gain, he could learn from the master.
