Grift at the Obama Foundation

Original Article

Newly released financial filings reveal that there are a lot of people making an absolute fortune off the Obama Foundation. Anyone who remembers the massive grift at the Clinton Foundation might feel like they’re taking a walk down memory lane. Valerie Jarrett, a former Obama White House player who was central to his presidency, was making a cool $740,000 per year running the foundation. That’s more than the President of the United States makes in a year. Other figures were also pulling in huge six-figure salaries and the number of employees has ballooned to more than 300 people.

Wicked old ValJar, the woman who talked the Kenyan Boy Wonder into financing Iran's terrorism efforts for a couple of decades. BTW, what is Chelsea being paid to count the money for the Clinton Crime Syndicate? A Brownstone in New York City isn't cheap.

I hope those exorbitant salaries weren't paid with government funds. I checked the article and it didn't say.

A big part of how we are going to fleece the public is through volunteers; i.e.people not worth paying. So sign up now---suckers!

Not saying that I think it's good that ValJar is being paid that much but you would be shocked at how much the heads of other 501c3 organizations are paid. Some of them are heavily advertised on Fox News. One in particular begs for money for old Jewish women and takes a salary and benefit package of over 835,000 a year.

A quick look at the financials for this massively ugly monument Obama built for people to come and worship him would tell you that the supply of wealthy donors is dwindling. His personal cartel needs to suck the money out while they still can.

Exactly #4 - and some of those 501c "Non-Profits" have CEOs making high six figures like the Humane Society of the US or whatever they are called now. Very little of your money goes to the group they're supposedly helping. The one for elderly Holocaust survivors needing food - ever notice how the survivor receives one small cardboard box with maybe a week's worth of food? As I have posted before, these 501c really need to lose their tax exempt status, well, at least the ones where the CEOs and other staff receive six to seven figure salaries, i.e. any in the poverty industry or politics.

As we reported, President Donald Trump called out European countries that rejected his request for ships to help out in a coalition to escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. It was a much-deserved mic drop scolding. How many times have we saved Europe's bacon? How many decades have we provided them protection from Russia, only to have them not pay their fair share until Trump forced them to do it? Yet they can't even be bothered to provide us help now, to protect their own interests. Here's Germany's Boris Pistorious saying they didn't start the war. So much for such an "ally."

In early 1991, right at the end of the first Gulf War, President George H. W. Bush could’ve marched to Baghdad, toppled Saddam Hussein, and freed the Iraqi people from tyranny. All the military tools were in place — and long-suffering minorities like the Kurds, who died by the thousands in chemical warfare, were more than willing to wage war. All they needed was help from the U.S.-led coalition. The help never came: 50,000 to 182,000 Kurds were slaughtered. Up to 200,000 Iraqis died. In the Time magazine essay “Why We Didn’t Remove Saddam,” which was cowritten by George H. W. Bush and Brent Scowcroft, the ex-president explained his reasoning:

There have been a lot of questions raised about the Strait of Hormuz, and what the status was for ships trying to go through it following strikes on the Iranian regime. The Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that the Strait was open except to the U.S., Israel, and those involved in fighting. If that's true, that would mean that the principal people who rely on it for global trade — the Asian markets — would be able to go through. There are actually ships traversing it now, according to Tanker Trackers, albeit not the normal traffic yet.
Why France is bolstering military presence

France’s government is bolstering the country’s military presence in the Middle East, dispatching its aircraft carrier and other warships, while President Emmanuel Macron engages with key players in the conflict, including Iran, in a bid to position Paris for future diplomatic talks. Macron said that France’s military involvement is strictly “defensive” and aims to avoid making the country a party to the war. He reaffirmed that position after one French soldier was killed Thursday in a drone attack in Iraq. “We are not at war with anyone,” Macron said. Still, the large-scale deployment of the French navy — which he described as “unprecedented” —

Lies, disinformation and fictional accounting are the order of the day as a desperate hard-Left UK government, aided by its pet Climate Change Committee, tries to keep its impossible Net Zero controlling agenda intact. The bedrock unproven science claims surround the suggestion that recent limited global warming presents an existential threat to the planet. Statistics are routinely tortured to produce claims of up to 1.7°C warming from the pre-industrial age, notable as reported in a recent silly ‘Trump’s brave new world’ article by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in the Telegraph. In fact, temperatures have only risen by around 1.1°C over the last 100 years.

Britain is a “sitting duck” for drone attacks, senior defence sources say, because Ed Miliband’s wind farms interfere with radar used by defensive domes. The Mail has the story. Ministers have been warned the UK lacks any equivalent to Israel’s famous ‘Iron Dome’, which gives it the capability to intercept ballistic missiles at high altitude from 40 miles away. Military chiefs have called for the Treasury to allocate the estimated £10 billion required for the system – but have so far been promised only £1 billion to scope out options. Germany, in comparison, is spending £3.5 billion on the Arrow anti-missile system as part of an expanding pan-European air-defence network.

Xi has been supremely confident that China will dominate the rest of the century... "Change is coming that hasn't happened in 100 years," the Chinese leader told Vladimir Putin after their 40th in-person chat, in Moscow in March 2023. "And we are driving this change together." Many in Washington and New York policy circles essentially agreed with Xi as they accepted the narrative of America's managed decline. Not President Donald Trump. In a spectacular move, he extracted Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife from Caracas on January 3 and is now in the process of taking down Iran's theocracy.

President Trump said on Saturday that the U.S. would continue shooting Iranian boats and ships "out of the water" and that the Strait of Hormuz will soon reopen. "Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are," he wrote on Truth Social.

Iran’s Shahed-style drones each cost between $20,000 and $50,000, but they can do a lot of damage. Since the latest conflict began, Iran's drones have killed six members of the Army Reserve at a command center in Kuwait on Sunday, and Iranian drones have wreaked havoc on Middle East petroleum facilities. The FBI is now warning that Iranian drones potentially pose risks to targets in California. Some journalists in the legacy media are shocked to discover that the U.S. has limited capabilities to counter these destructive and lethal aerial devices.

The city of Minneapolis has seen a dramatic increase in auto thefts so far in 2026, causing rising pressure on Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey to address the situation. The worrying trend was highlighted by Crime Watch Minneapolis, a volunteer-operated news organization, which shared a graphic on X showing how widespread the problem has become throughout the city. More than 1,000 auto thefts were reported in January and February of this year in Minneapolis, a city of approximately 430,000 people. This represents an increase of nearly 35% compared to the same period last year, according to Crime Watch

Cuba also said on Monday that it was removing impediments to US businesses and other foreign investors, but noted that United States law still prevented trade and investment under the long-running economic embargo aimed at punishing the government in Havana. “There are no limitations,” Cuban Deputy Prime Minister Oscar Perez-Oliva Fraga, who also heads the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Foreign Investment, told state television in an interview.

More than 600 service members and crew members aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford are without a bed after a fire aboard the ship Thursday, The New York Times reported.

A Christian couple’s years-long fight to regain custody of their daughters from the Swedish government was dealt a major setback last week after a top European court rejected their plea for help. The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) ruled the case brought by Daniel and Bianca Samson "inadmissible" on March 10, a final decision that cannot be appealed. According to Alliance Defending Freedom International, which is supporting the family’s legal effort, the children have been separated from their parents since December 2022.

In March 2021, California principal Jesus Becerra was confronted by a clear and present threat to his school. Standing before him was the culprit — a student apparently so dangerous that Becerra had to act without delay to protect the entire Viejo Elementary School in the Capistrano Unified School District. The little girl is known only as B.B. in federal filings, but her actions were so heinous that a parent alerted Becerra to take all necessary action. Beccera showed B.B. the incriminating evidence: a picture of children holding hands with the words “any life” written under “Black Lives Matter.” Confronting the little girl, Becerra allegedly called the paper “racist.”
