The Hill "A publication has obtained a recording of former President Obama’s address at a conference at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), despite attendees being barred from sharing the contents of the speech.
"Reason published the recording of Obama’s speech on Monday, writing that “the most newsworthy thing about it is the simple fact that the public wasn't supposed to hear it.”
"Those attending Obama’s speech at the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference (SSAC) on Friday, including media covering the event, were banned from publicly sharing information about the address.
“ 'Following the panel, the sharing or reporting of its contents on public platforms, including social media, will not be permitted,” the notice sent to attendees read. “Those who fail to adhere to this policy will be subject to removal from the conference and denied tickets to future SSAC conferences.”
"During the speech, Obama said his administration “didn’t have a scandal that embarrassed us.”
"He said that while officials did make mistakes, there were no major controversies." . . .
Obama said in 'secret' speech, 'We didn't have a scandal that embarrassed us'
There is some truth here: when has any democrat politician ever been embarrassed by their scandal? When faced with proof of hers, Hillary will laugh right in your face. Literally. See?.....

But we digress...
. . . "Hit and Run's Robbie Soave called the speech "weird." Indeed, Barack Obama's "secret" speech at an MIT sports policy conference didn't deal much with sports. But the former president did toot his own horn quite a bit. He also praised "diversity" and climate change science and bemoaned the divide in American politics.

"Attendees were instructed not to "record, photograph, tweet, or report on the event" before they were even allowed to sit down. It's a mystery why organizers and the president's entourage went to such lengths to keep what he said a secret.". . .
"Reason Podcast obtained a copy of the speech, which you can play at the bottom of the linked page." . . .
