Re: Obama News and Tweets
I am pretty sure now that the Obamas have not been in Martha's Vineyard. It's a ruse or something. They are being Ruth Bader Ginsburged with all the "they were spotted" doing this, bit.

The photo on this website is from 2015. Why doesn't anyone have a good current photo of Obama and family hanging around in Martha's Vineyard? I'm not sure what the story is with buying the house, but I don't believe that they are going to live in it. I don't even think that they are in the country.

They have been in this place for three weeks. The last news story I posted, reported that the businesses, the Obamas frequent, had not heard from them. In three weeks, there are no photos of them being there.

Here’s what Barack and Michelle Obama are up to on their Martha’s Vineyard vacation
It's week three, and the former President and First Lady are frequenting favorite spots.

Obama gets political again, launches initiative to fight gerrymandering

Former President Barack Obama is back in the political arena, announcing a new initiative to combat partisan gerrymandering — though Republicans say the efforts are really about helping Democrats.

The "Redistricting U" program, which is part of the "All on the Line" campaign, aims to recruit and train individuals to take up the fight against drawing congressional districts based on partisan interests.

Obama’s the most expensive ex-president for taxpayers

By Bob Fredericks September 1, 2017 | 12:46pm | Updated

All living former presidents get an office, expenses and, in some cases, an annual pension payment, because of a 1950s-era law enacted after President Harry Truman turned out to be broke after leaving the White House.

In an interview with The Washington Times in his office at the Department of Veterans Affairs, Mr. Wilkie said displaying a Bible in a VA hospital is a matter of liberty and that the Obama administration erred in trying to eliminate religious symbols from the veterans health care system.

Democrats disavow Obama's creation of rival political group
The 2020 field pledges not to form a separate political arm from the DNC.

By LAURA BARRÓN-LÓPEZ, ALEX THOMPSON and HOLLY OTTERBEIN 08/27/2019 07:12 PM EDT

To this day, many Democratic Party officials still fume about Barack Obama’s decision to create his own political group outside of the Democratic National Committee, Organizing for Action.

Now they’ve ensured it won't happen again if a Democrat wins the White House in 2020.


The pledge, signed by Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg and 16 other contenders, requires candidates to use state parties as their organizing, messaging and political arm should they become their party's nominee.

Ex-Secret Service dog credited with saving Obama from White House intruder to receive British award

A dog who is credited with saving former President Barack Obama from an intruder at the White House will be honored for his heroism.

"Hurricane," a former U.S. Secret Service dog, will be awarded the Order of Merit from PDSA, a British veterinary charity that equates the honor with the "OBE," or "Order of the British Empire," during a special ceremony in London in October. He will be the first-ever foreign animal to receive the award.

Re: Obama News and Tweets
On fifth anniversary of Obama’s tan suit, media keep lying that his White House was scandal-free

by Becket Adams
| August 31, 2019 02:10 PM

[link to www.washingtonexaminer.com (secure)]

Five years ago, former President Barack Obama revealed at a White House press briefing that he had no strategy to defeat the Islamic State.

Members of the press and a handful of right-wing and GOP cranks went wild ... for the president’s choice of attire. Obama attended the briefing wearing a baggy tan suit. It was all reporters and commentators could talk about.


Today, members of the press have tweaked further their false version of events. They now use the anniversary of the tan suit to claim the Obama administration was essentially scandal-free. This is beyond ignorance or sycophancy. It is immoral and a damned lie.

Here is a look inside The Obama's new home in Martha's Vineyard. I don't see the appeal of the house. If I had 15 million to blow on a home, I would probably build. Maybe they just liked the property it's located on.

Barack Obama's Production Company Runs Into a Trademark Problem

[link to www.hollywoodreporter.com (secure)]

The U.S. Trademark Office rejects an application for "Higher Ground Productions," so the former president and first lady get aggressive.

On Aug. 20, Barack and Michelle Obama's Higher Ground Productions made a move to save its name. That day, the company went to the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office and demanded cancellation of someone else's earlier trademark registration for "Higher Ground Enterprises."

Higher Ground Enterprises is run by Hanisya Massey, who, according to her attorney Larry Zerner, is in the business of helping authors publish e-books. Her trademark is in Class 41, which includes entertainment services. Zerner says Massey has been using "Higher Ground" since 2008.

Obamas accused of ‘deplorable behavior’ amid trademark dispute: 'Not consistent with the values they preach'

Barack and Michelle Obama have been accused of “deplorable behavior” by a Los Angeles entertainment attorney for filing a “meritless petition” amid a trademark dispute over the name of their company, Higher Ground Productions.

The legal team representing the Obamas filed a petition to cancel the trademark of an e-book publishing company called Higher Ground Enterprises, much to the chagrin of the publishing company.


“Instead of simply picking another name, the Obamas' lawyers have now filed a meritless petition to cancel my client's trademark so they can take it for themselves,” Zerner said.

Here are three people giving advice on packing. All people who are probably ready to "get away" or already gone. It's probably advising everyone that it's time to leave.

[link to www.travelandleisure.com (secure)]

How to Pack Smarter According to Richard Branson, Barack Obama, and Chrissy Teigen

BY STACEY LEASCA SEPTEMBER 07, 2019

Even President Obama has been open about the decidedly unfashionable choice, telling Vanity Fair in 2012, “You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits.”

Obama added: “I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make. You need to focus your decision-making energy. You need to routinize yourself. You can’t be going through the day distracted by trivia.”


Isn't it kind of odd that these rich people are giving packing advise? If they didn't want to pack a single thread of clothing, they could buy a whole new - or several new outfits when they get "there".
