Exclusive: Obama's biographer reveals
ex-president fears for his legacy after
'tone-deaf preaching' harmed Harris campaign
Posted By: Imright, 11/9/2024 5:59:20 AM
Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have been slammed by his biographer for 'talking down' to voters in 'tone-deaf and clueless' preaching that harmed Kamala Harris' ill-fated presidential campaign. The effect was so bad that – combined with Donald Trump's victory – it is likely to reduce the 44th president's political relevance to 'Bill Clinton levels', David Garrow said in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com. 'People do not want to be talked down to, no matter who they are,' the 71-year-old Pulitzer Prize winner said.

History records this of the famous Nixon Watergate scandal.
In the summer of 1972, as an American presidential election featuring incumbent Republican President Richard Nixon and Democrat Senator George McGovern swirled, two young, green Washington Post reporters, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein by name, learned of a break-in at Washington’s Watergate Hotel and office complex. A break-in at the offices of the Democratic National Committee.
Neither was happy at their new assignment that had them looking into this. It was too much like the run-of-the-mill petty crimes each had already spent time investigating. Besides, the two had never worked together on a story before.
My family and I were lucky enough to be invited to the White House this week for the signing of the Executive Order on dismantling the worthless Department of Education. We were in the room as President Trump spoke about the failures of this monstrosity and the trillions wasted over the years to get ever-worsening results. But you’d never know any of that watching the media coverage of the event, because they’re horrible people who deserve your contempt. During the event the media pen was behind us in this room of maybe 100 people. A lot of Governors, including Ron DeSantis of Florida, Greg Abbott
President Trump knew legal challenges would be filed against his policies and executive orders. He’s prepared, and his team is willing to fight every frivolous lawsuit and unlawful order, especially the ones issued by rogue district judges. He should ignore the rulings, but he won’t; the administration plans to go through the appeals process, as annoying as that may be for rulings that clearly show judges are violating the separation of powers.
The president has an attorney general who is in his corner, too. His latest directive to Ms. Pam Bondi is to investigate the legions of anti-Trump attorneys and their law firms
Mike Benz, the founder of the Foundation for Freedom Online, recently joined Joe Rogan on his very popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience with over 19 million subscribers.
** The entire podcast is here.
The podcast was filmed several weeks ago but a clip from this discussion is making the rounds this week on social media.
During their conversation, Mike Benz shared how Barack Obama was using money to USAID to pretend to send “aid” overseas. In actuality, Obama was laundering the taxpayer dollars and using it to train “rent-a-mobs” instead!
A defiant Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer vowed that he will not step down from his leadership role any time soon while strenuously defending his decision to vote against blocking a GOP bill to avert a partial government shutdown.
Schumer (D-NY), 74, who has been facing a progressive revolt over his shutdown vote earlier this month, reiterated that he “did this out of conviction” and fired back at detractors such as former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.)
“Look, I’m not stepping down,” Schumer told NBC’s “Meet the Press” in a pretaped interview that aired Sunday. “I did it out of pure conviction as to what a leader should do and what the
President Trump recently offered a hopeful glimpse into the treatment Catholics can expect in his America when he pledged to investigate the attack on St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Wichita, Kansas, that left a Satanic website address scrawled on the wall.
“I think it’s a terrible thing,” Trump said, when asked about the attack. “I am going to take a look at it.” (X Video) This promise – in addition to the administration’s new “Anti-Christian Weaponization Task Force,” – have officially put the cowardly extremists responsible for nearly 500 attacks on Catholic Churches across America since 2020 on notice.
Sometimes you just have to shake your head.
The MSNBC show "The Weekend," on Saturday, in their infinite wisdom (yes, I'm being facetious), decided to provide the Democratic Party with some valuable advice as to what they ought to do next, in order to start winning elections. While they did get one thing right, the balance of their advice was pretty ludicrous. On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, the panel had few ideas on what theme Democrats should run on.
But there was consensus on one thing: "Fighting Oligarchy," the name of the national tour by Bernie Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez, ain't it.
Co-host Michael Steele: "The 'oligarchy tour,' I think, kind of

New York—Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s book, coming out in September, is being billed by her publisher as an invitation for “readers to see the Supreme Court through the lens of her experience.”
“Listening to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution” will be released Sept. 9, according to Sentinel Books, a conservative imprint of Penguin Random House.“In ‘Listening to the Law,’ Justice Barrett illuminates her role and daily life as a justice, touching on everything from her deliberation process to dealing with media scrutiny,” Friday’s announcement by Sentinel reads in part. “With the warmth and clarity that made her a popular law professor, she brings to life the
Kitty Dukakis, the wife of 1988 Democrat presidential nominee Michael Dukakis, died on Friday at the age of 88, according to her family.
Her son, John Dukakis, confirmed his mother’s passing, attributing it to complications stemming from dementia. She served as the first lady of Massachusetts when her husband was governor from 1975 to 1979. In 1988, Michael Dukakis became the Democrat nominee for president.
“Kitty Dukakis used her role as First Lady of the Commonwealth to champion refugees and the homeless, promote greater awareness of the Holocaust, and advocate for placing more women in leadership roles within state government,” the Massachusetts Democratic Party said in a statement.
President Donald Trump attended the final rounds of the 2024-25 NCAA wrestling championships in Philadelphia on Saturday.
Trump walked into the Wells Fargo Center and was greeted by a raucous crowd from the wrestling fans, who cheered "USA! USA!" amid the president's presence. A few fans booed when Trump walked in.

President Donald Trump hit back at Boston Mayor Michelle Wu (D) after her scathing State of the City speech this week in which she publicly declared she would not cooperate with the Trump administration’s immigration policies. The president declared Wu to be a “radical” who prioritizes “violent criminal illegal aliens.” Wu claimed the United States was “built on the values this federal administration seeks to tear down.” She said she “Stand[s] with immigrants,” telling them that they “belong here.”

Former First Lady Michelle Obama is surprised that her school lunch program proved to be so controversial.
Obama made the remarks during an appearance this week on the Not Gonna Lie podcast with Kylie Kelce, asserting that her decision to make a difference with school lunches — and her overall “Let’s Move” initiative — was “strategic” in nature.
“I was trying to be strategic about aligning my agenda with something that was important to the West Wing. And I thought, ‘There’s no way that anyone is going to take issue with trying to make school lunches healthier, getting kids more active,'” she said.
FIRST ON FOX: President Donald Trump's administration’s use of Elon Musk's DOGE to cut USAID spending is having a deep impact on the United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS), according to internal U.N. emails shared with Fox News Digital. ...president of the U.N. Field Staff Union, Milan Victor Dawoh wrote that the USAID funding cut resulted in "approximately $30 million" having been "removed from the extra-budgetary (XB) resources, resulting in a significant reduction in staffing." [Snip] A U.N. source speaking on condition of anonymity said that in the midst of financial uncertainty, U.N. staff " are very fearful of their immediate future."
Australian universities are crying foul after the Trump administration asks questions that put $386 million in research grants in jeopardy. The bone of contention was a questionnaire sent to Australian grant recipients asking if the institution had "ties to communist or socialist parties, receive funding from China and it only recognises male and female sexes." The grants were frozen in January, shortly after President Trump was inaugurated, but were unfrozen at some time thereafter. This new round of questions is the second time the universities were queried, but this time, it has their attention.

President Donald Trump dropped a political bombshell on Friday, signing an executive order that yanks security clearances from some of the most notorious figures of the radical left.
The list reads like a who’s who of Trump-hating elitists and Deep State operatives like Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris.
Trump once more listed Antony Blinken, Jacob Sullivan, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and even Joe Biden, along with his entire corrupt family.
Trump’s order declares that these individuals no longer have any business sniffing around classified information.
The globalist prime minister of Australia, who has a history of anti-Trump bashing, is now reportedly devastated that Donald Trump cut U.S. funding to Australian universities.
Leaving aside the obvious fact that American taxpayers shouldn’t be funding any foreign universities, it is amusing to note how leftist foreign leaders with a track record of sneering at and criticizing Americans are suddenly panicked by the loss of American money, either via grant terminations or tariffs. Apparently we were supposed to be the world‘s wallet endlessly, no matter how much other nations abused and used us.

A panelist on MSNBC fretted Friday that the Trump administration’s decision to begin abolishing the Department of Education (ED) would make it impossible to forgive student loans. President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to start shutting down the agency she heads Thursday, fulfilling a campaign promise, while announcing Friday that student loans would be handled by the Small Business Administration (SBA). MSNBC analyst Susan del Percio told MSNBC host Alex Witt that Trump was trying to “privatize” student loans.

Walz attempted to clarify his comments during a town hall in Rochester, Minnesota. "This guy bugs me in a way that’s probably unhealthy," Walz said, referring to Musk.

On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said that the anti-Tesla violence and property destruction are wrong, “And this is the kind of civil disorder that has been unleashed in the country and licensed by Donald Trump, who pardoned more than 1,500 insurrectionists, including hundreds of people who violently assaulted our police officers.”
Host Chris Cuomo asked, “[P]eople burning Teslas, I think they’re acts of terrorism. And I don’t hear Democrats trying to grab some high ground here and say, who’s doing this? Who’s doing this? This is not America.
I really want to trust Lindy Li, the high profile 34-tear-old Democratic influencer and fundraiser who switched to Team Trump while votes were still being counted in California.
But I have reservations. And I have one very specific reason why.
In the last two months, Li has been all over the internet. Her breakout interview on the Shawn Ryan show a month ago has garnered more than 3.5 million views and over 30,000 comments. A subsequent interview with Patrick Bet-David netted 2.5 million. As Bet-David noted, “A lot of people want to know, is she straight up, is she real?”
Maybe, maybe not. Li is smart, sweet, charming, and so seemingly vulnerable
For years, the left advanced utter untruths for cheap partisan purposes that it knew at the time were all false.
And now when caught, they just shrug and say they were lying all along.
Once it was known that the first COVID-19 case originated in or near a Chinese communist virology lab engineering gain-of-function deadly viruses — with help from Western agencies — the left went into full persecution mode. They damned as incompetent, racist and conspiratorial any who dared follow logic and evidence to point out that the Chinese government and its military were both culpable for the virus and lying.

I'm not suggesting Elon Musk took my advice when I said he should consider suing Jamaal Bowman, but I'm not denying it either.
As I wrote on Friday, Bowman launched into a deranged rant against Musk, accusing him of being a "thief" and "nazi." It was so bad that CNN's Abby Philip had to jump in and give a disclaimer at the end, stating that his opinion was his own. BOWMAN: That's not true, and this shows again, the American people do not trust Elon Musk, and Elon Musk is incompetent in his position. And how do we know? Because they fired tens of thousands of people,
President Trump is tearing out the infrastructure of the Democrat party and setting off panic in progressive circles. According to a report in the New York Times, Trump's attacks on Democrat funding, fundraising, organizing, and legal organizations are presenting the Democrats with a threat that only Republicans have encountered in the past. The report highlights Trump imposing what amounts to economic sanctions on three major Democrat-affiliated law firms — Perkins Coie, Covington & Burlington, and Paul Weiss — via executive orders; see Trump Strips Security Clearance From Law Firm That Helped Hillary's Campaign Fund Debunked Steele Dossier –
