WhatsMyElevation lists the elevation of their home as being 3 feet above sea level. Others place it at 10 feet.
Either way, either the Obamas made a very stupid investment, or they don’t believe in the nonsense that they tried to bankrupt their country for.
Of course, Obama did promise us in 2008 that we will be able to look back and tell our children this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow.
Maybe he really was the Messiah after all!"

"Congress has no fitness test, no age limit, and no term limits. The Founders left exactly one check on members who can no longer serve: the election. Voters who keep returning them anyway are not exercising loyalty. They are ratifying a failure, and the republic is paying the price."
"Three sitting members of Congress show documented evidence of cognitive decline or severely impaired judgment, and all three are seeking re-election. There are no fitness tests, no age limits, and no term limits standing in their way. The only check Madison built into the system is the vote, and right now voters are not using it."
• California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, 87, is seeking her 19th term (38 years in Congress) and refused to say whether 100 is too old to serve.
• Waters was duped by pranksters in two separate incidents into accepting fabricated foreign-policy scenarios, including one involving a fictional nation called “Limpopo” and another involving a made-up island called “Chongo-Chango.”
• Florida Democratic Rep. Frederica Wilson, 83, missed more than 43 floor votes starting in mid-April 2026, absent for roughly a month with no explanation until her staff cited “eye surgery”; she missed all committee work during the period.
• Washington, D.C., Democratic Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton, 88, has served since 1991; a police report noted “early signs of dementia,” and New York Times sources describe her as “unable to function independently” and at times unable to recognize longtime colleagues.
• No mandatory cognitive or fitness tests exist for members of Congress; the Constitution sets a minimum age of 25 for the House and 30 for the Senate, with no maximum and no term limits.
• Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, 84, froze mid-sentence on camera twice, fell multiple times, and uses a wheelchair; he announced he will not seek re-election."
"A Palestinian man from Gaza has filed an ICC complaint against Hamas, accusing the terror group of using civilians as human shields. Erin Molan says this is what many have been saying since October 7: Hamas is the enemy of both Israelis and Palestinians."
Mamdani LOSES IT After His Wife's SICKENING Hamas Ties Get EXPOSED (Video) "When New York City's youngest-ever first lady stepped into Gracie Mansion on January 1st, 2026, few observers anticipated that a series of Instagram likes, archived Tumblr posts, and a commissioned illustration would ignite one of the most consequential political controversies in the city's recent history. Rama Duwaji — artist, Gen Z first lady, and wife of Mayor Zohran Mamdani — became the center of a rapidly expanding media investigation that raised serious questions not just about her own views, but about the credibility of the mayor's response to them.
"In this breakdown, Felmon examines the full timeline of the Rama Duwaji controversy — from her October 7th social media activity and her illustrated collaboration with a writer who described the Hamas massacre as "spectacular," to decades-old posts glorifying designated terrorist organizations. But at the center of this story is a single date: October 8th, 2023, the day Mamdani publicly condemned a pro-Hamas rally in Times Square — the very same day his then-girlfriend was liking that rally's posts on Instagram. That contradiction, Felmon argues, is not a matter of a spouse's private opinions. It is a window into a troubling pattern of public accountability selectively applied — and it carries implications that extend far beyond New York City politics."

This week’s upheaval is only the latest sign that the age of activist journalism may be nearing its end.
"On Sept. 30, 2024, prominent progressive thinker and author Ta-Nehisi Coates appeared on CBS Mornings to promote his new book focusing on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, The Message. Coates’s argument echoed many standard left-wing tropes about the intractable conflict, framing it as an intersectional battle between an illegitimate oppressor group and a helpless oppressed group. Tony Dokoupil, whose children live in Israel with their mother, pushed back in the interview. He stated that The Message “would not be out of place in the backpack of an extremist,” and he further argued that Coates’s book deliberately omitted crucial details about the Hamas jihadist organization and the realities of Islamic terrorism. For having the temerity to ask challenging questions to a leading proponent of post-George Floyd left-wing racial gospel, Dokoupil was ritually reprimanded by his employer. The anchor was summoned to the organization’s Orwellian-named “Race and Culture Unit” after some CBS News employees complained about Dokoupil’s “tone of voice, phrasing, and body language.” In a subsequent CBS News editorial meeting that was leaked to Bari Weiss’s The Free Press — on Oct. 7, of all dates — network executives Wendy McMahon and Adrienne Roark chided their own anchor for failing to “preserv(e) the legacy of neutrality and objectivity that is CBS News.” . . .. . .

. . . "Weiss urged her staff to “look honestly at ourselves,” and admitted, “We are not producing a product that enough people want.” She explained, “Not enough people trust us. Not you. Us. As in: the mainstream media. We can debate ‘why’ that is, but the numbers tell the story.” Another reason for the company’s failure, she said, “We are not doing enough to meet audiences where they are, so they are leaving us.”
"She pointed out that Americans are instead turning to podcasts, YouTube, Twitch, and newsletters to receive information. Weiss warned that the company needs to change their strategy of “[clinging] to the audience that remains on broadcast television.'”. . .
