Honestly,  I believe there is a reason Obama wants to keep those records out of the public eye.  If there was nothing to this, why has he fought so hard to keep them sealed? ...

 

A question many of my left leaning friends tend to ignore.

I sure do.  Like when dems constantly squawk about wanting to see Trump's tax returns but it's perfectly acceptable that everything related to obama is kept sealed and out of the public eye,  but seeing the can of worms that was his "certicificate of live birth"  i understand their relunctance to provide transparency into the true background of this mystery man from hawaii.  Trump should make the same deal with obama as he did with hillary's emails.  I'll show you my taxes if you show us your college records etc....

I recall several years of Trump's taxes being leaked by the deep state to the media just a little while back.  It was another nuthin burger. 

And I recall a BIG deal being made about it. "We got his taxes! We got his taxes!"

But then, it was for a different year, and it was "Oh, there's really nothing here."

Who's used the taxpayer-funded account to settle sexual assault and rape accusations...

Yes, one has something to hide that would expose him as a fraud .... the other has a lot of legitimate business deals where he took advantage of legal loopholes and laws ....

Exactly, and he suffered terrible losses.  As a businessman you are able to claim those as tax deductions.  Many people simply do not understand that.  As I've said before if the IRS says they're legit, then they are.  It's none of my business.  I know how business works.  Some months, quarters, and years you lose money.  It's how well you've done over the long haul that makes you successful.  90% of the people wouldn't even comprehend them if they were released, and that includes those in Congress.  All they would do is point to $$$ amounts.  Of course no one calls to see George Soros and Warren Buffets tax returns, and they are both heavy players in manipulating politics.

Let’s not forget that there was zero outrage when 18 migrants died while in custody of immigration enforcement authorities under Obama. Liberals have short memories. And it’s explicitly clear that they will step on all the rakes in their petty and pathetic crusade to weaponize anything in order to attack the Trump White House. History did indeed just towel slap these losers again. Grab the popcorn.

Make that two camps.

The Obama administration used two former Japanese internment camps to detain migrants. Former Weekly Standard writer Jeryl Bier noted that yesterday, citing that Republicans had also objected to using Fort Sill as a detention center in 2014, citing that this new duty would be a distraction to the military mission of the facility. Still, ’orange man…bad’ is the liberal media narrative as it has been since Hillary Clinton went down in sweet defeat:

Hours before President Trump took office, the Obama administration scrambled to purge 12 years worth of transcripts spanning hundreds of speeches from the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) website, according to the Daily Caller's Jason Hopkins:

"With a couple of clicks of a mouse, access to a federal government web resource containing 12 years of primary source materials on ICE’s history was lost," wrote the Sunlight Foundation, adding that speeches dating back to 2004 were included in the purge.

The Caller notes that speeches from former acting ICE Director Thomas Homan were "prominently included in the deletion list," including a February 2016 speech in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee in which Homan discussed that "Unaccompanied Minor Crisis," which the Obama administration was grappling to manage at the southern border.

Another example cited by the Caller was a transcript from May 2016 in which Homan explained why sanctuary cities (and counties, and states) put "the public at risk," according to the report.

The Sunlight Foundation offered the following commentary to explain the purge: "It is not inconceivable that an outgoing Democratic administration might want to avoid preserving these public stances for future scrutiny," adding "The removal of the ICE speeches collection represents the loss of a primary source history of the early days of ICE, dating back to its creation during the George W. Bush administration in 2003."
