The Forever-Tarnished Legacy of Barack Obama

 Jeff Davidson; Townhall 

"As for Obama’s legacy? Beyond being the first African-American president, nothing seems to be in store."    


"Among the many benefits of Donald Trump’s re-election that our nation and the world are already experiencing is the forever tarnished legacy of Barack Obama. In 2028, will the Democrat candidate want Obama to go on the campaign trail for him or her? I doubt it.

"Obama's Un-enduring Influence

"When he was elected president (assuming that massive Democratic cheating was not in full swing in 2008), Democrats held a commanding 55- to 45-seat majority in the U.S. Senate and an overwhelming 256- to 179-seat majority in the U.S. House of Representatives. 

"By the time Obama left office on January 20, 2017, Democrats were down nine seats in the Senate and a whopping 62 seats in the House – they lost the majority in each chamber. Among the 50 states, there were twelve fewer Democrat governors. You’d have to look back more than 95 years to see when the Democrats did so poorly at the polls on a national and state level.

"For all the mainstream media blather heaped upon Obama as some kind of political savior, at the end of his two terms, he left the Democratic Party in shambles. However, he has personally benefitted financially in extraordinary ways. 

"Considering the “Obama effect” on the nation’s vote totals, is any sane Democrat willing to extol the virtues of his influence on the electorate?

Megyn Kelly EXPOSES The Pete Hegseth “Sexual Assault” Claims

WLTReport 

"Watch the entire segment. It is clear after listening to Megyn Kelly walk through the police report, why charges were never filed against Pete. Don’t expect the fake news to report these details."

"The fake news has been all over Pete Hegseth this week regarding a sexual assault allegation from 2017 that was previously investigated and dropped by the Monterey Police Department.

There was a reason charges were never filed. And the legacy media knows this.  They are pushing this slanderous attack against Pete Hegseth anyway because they really, really care about powerful men abusing innocent women and children… except, of course, if those powerful men include serial abusers like Bill Clinton or gropers like Joe Biden.

The media rushed to humiliate and slander President Trump’s nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, this week with leaks about a years-old sexual assault allegation that was already investigated by police.

In 2017, Monterey, California, police investigated an allegation made by a married woman [Jane Doe] who claimed Pete Hegseth sexually assaulted her at a political event, but they found no evidence to support her claims. Hegseth claimed the encounter was consensual.

Video footage appears to show a consensual encounter. Video footage also appears to show that it was Hegseth and not the accuser who was slightly intoxicated while the accuser did not appear impaired at all from video footage.

The accuser’s story also fell apart when she refused to answer her husband’s phone calls that night and then discussed an alabi with Hegseth before she went back to the hotel room where her husband was waiting for her. The woman told her husband the same story that she discussed with Hegseth before she left him.

"Pete Hegseth’s attorney Timothy Parlatore told Vanity Fair last week: “This allegation was already investigated by the Monterey police department and they found no evidence for it.”

"On Friday, reporter and attorney Megyn Kelly discussed the numerous reasons she believes charges were never filed against Pete Hegseth.

"Kelly obliterated the accuser.  This was a textbook takedown.
"Megyn Kelly included several facts that have been conveniently ignored by the mainstream media as they continue their efforts to destroy Pete Hegseth’s good name and character." . . .
