Obama Foundation, Saudi Influence and Bill Clinton

Speculation suggests President Obama is positioning his own foundation to succeed the Clinton Foundation as a primary vehicle for international fundraising. Obama's veto of JASTA is interpreted as an attempt to protect Saudi donors who might later contribute to his library and "My Brother's Keeper" initiative. The relationship between the Saudis and the U.S. political elite is characterized as deeply transactional.

My Brother's Keeper Initiative, Charter School Funding

President Obama announced the "My Brother's Keeper" initiative, a $200 million investment from major foundations like Ford, Kellogg, and Soros's Open Society to support boys and men of color. The hosts analyze the initiative as a "charter school investment program" designed to bypass public school systems. The involvement of figures like Michael Bloomberg and Rahm Emanuel is cited as evidence of a commercialized educational agenda.

Benghazi Attack Narrative Shift and Media Complicity

The discussion focuses on the changing official narrative regarding the September 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. A montage highlights the transition from blaming a "hateful video" to admitting the event was a coordinated terrorist attack involving Al-Qaeda. The hosts argue that the initial focus on spontaneous protests was a psychological operation and a cover-up by the Obama administration to protect a specific election-year narrative.

Barack Obama's Early Involvement in Carbon Trading

Before his presidency, Barack Obama served on the board of the Joyce Foundation, which provided grants to launch the Chicago Climate Exchange.

National Endowment for the Arts, TV Service Propaganda

A leaked memo and press releases from the Entertainment Industry Foundation reveal a coordinated effort to insert themes of "national service" into over 60 network television shows. This initiative, supported by the Obama administration and the NEA, focuses on education, health, and energy. The hosts view this as a form of state-sponsored media indoctrination.
