Former President Barack Obama has come under fire for his plans to host nearly 500 people at his Martha's Vineyard mansion for his 60th birthday, despite a nationwide rise in COVID cases.
The former president is set to turn 60 on August 4, and is said to be planning a large soiree at his 7,000-square-foot mansion in the Edgarton section of Martha's Vineyard next weekend.
An official familiar with the plans told Axios that there are now 475 confirmed guests for the party - including Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney and Steven Spielberg - with more than 200 staff members.

ReplyDeleteTypical democrat fascism
There never has been any restrictions for them. To express more accurately, events they support such as looting and rioting, George Floyd protests, etc are acceptable. Events they don't sanction such as attending church, family get together, children attending school, Trump rallies, etc are opposed and labeled as super spreaders and those who would dare defy them are demonized and worse.
ReplyDeleteThe leadership class tells us this virus is a great threat and they try and place shackles on us but they have yet to make any of the sacrifices they expect us to make. Essentially their actions strongly suggest they don't really believe what they are telling us.
Lindsay Graham, who is fully vaccinated still got sick

And then he claims, like a brainwashed poodle, that his symptoms were worse if he hadn't taken the experimental covid "vaccine". He doesn't say "fuck the vaccine is not a vaccine as it didn't give me immunity" .. he's stupid, a child
These people.. either he's completely dumb, or, and I think that's much more likely, he's getting kick backs for saying this
It's like "if I hadn't fought the rapist, my rape would have been better" lol
People are brainwashed, there's no going back. They don't understand what the PCR test is and the media doesn't even once mention what the inventor of the test had to say about all this
If society ends, we must kill all those who promoted the vaccines, the lockdowns etc.. being dumb is no excuse almost a year into this. They'r recklessly uninformed and are promoting policies that enslave us to corporations
Obama looks guilty and his smile is so tormented.. but the charade goes on
ReplyDeleteE.G.: 500 guests at Barack Obama's 60th birthday party. Attended to by an additional 200 servants. At the Obama mega mansion at Martha's Vineyard - which is located right on the water's edge in a dire period climate change and rising oceans.
ReplyDeleteAnd an open southern border, allowing tens of thousands of illegals into the US interior. Many thousands covid positive.
But you US citizens just shut up, wear your mask, get your vax and trust your betters.
"We are the ones we've been waiting for", no self esteem problem there!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe it!
A dedicated Democrat drudge knows to pull the lever for anything with a (D) behind the name, vociferously defend The Party, Copy and paste gratuitously, and be happy to be cooped up in quarantine while watching their better party on tv.
ReplyDeleteAnd these criminal thugs and pedophiles want to tell us our carbon footprint is too big? You hypocritical good for nothing gangsters belong nowhere but into the grave of irrelevance. When all this is over, people will want to hang the corrupt elite living like leeches of our work
ReplyDeleteTodays MSM....Trump Rally = super spreader. Obama party = wonderful story. Liberals are truly sheep.
ReplyDeleteWhy People Are So Awful Online
ReplyDeleteeveryone attending will have been vaccinated can you shy the same for all your pals?
There it crawls out from under a rock.
ReplyDeleteA holy of holies was criticized. In fact the most holy was criticized. Obama. Rockling will not debate anyone directly. No, it will do so obliquely knowing it has neither the facts nor the logic to debate directly.

There's still a gaping partisan divide over masks, but a second chasm is emerging between Democrats and Republicans over a possible coronavirus vaccine announcement before the general election."
Only 36% of blacks are vaccinated. So what do Democrats do. Look at the 41% of Republicans, who say they probably will not get the shot.

Democrats demonized the vaccine for 3 or 4 solid months before the election. Fauci lies and lies and lies. A government that conducts the Tuskegee experiments and is going full blown CRT, who knows what it might do.
Who have run your mouth plenty rockling. You are part of the problem.
Of course rockling doesn't know chemistry and does not know how the virus harms people. Can't explain it.
No rocking is a specialist not a generalist, but no one bought its special wares. Such profound knowledge of ... nothing.

"everyone attending will be vaccinated"
ReplyDeleteyeah I believe that when I see their medical records, even the CEO of Pfizer hasn't taken the shot and given all sorts of excuses for months now
Also, the vaccines do not work, no matter how often CNN claims they do
"99.99% of vaccinated people didn't die or didn't have any serious effects".. yeah, that's great you can believe that if you want, even the leaked Pfizer documents show this is very very unlikely (and, having worked in that industry, I have never - in 5 decades - seen a drug that would achieve such numbers.. the best drug we ever had had about 82% efficacy)
99.99% lol how dumb are people to believe CNN still
