WASHINGTON - A voter initiative led by Michelle Obama announced support Monday for making it easier for people to register to vote and cast ballots during the coronavirus pandemic. When We All Vote, a nonpartisan voting initiative, says Americans should have greater access to voting by mail, early in-person voting and online voter registration. The announcement follows last week’s primary election in Wisconsin, where thousands of people waited hours in line - without protective gear and in defiance of orders to stay home - after the state Supreme Court overturned the governor’s order to postpone the vote as more than...

The Trump administration on Friday announced plans to roll back school lunch standards originally promoted by former first lady Michelle Obama. The new standards will allow schools more flexibility "because they know their children best," the Agriculture Department said in press release. “Schools and school districts continue to tell us that there is still too much food waste and that more common-sense flexibility is needed to provide students nutritious and appetizing meals. We listened and now we’re getting to work,” Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said. The proposed new rules build on previous steps taken by the Trump administration to roll...

The former first lady wore a pale pink set consisting of a crewneck blouse, harem pants and a printed cardigan today at Can Giuoc, a high school in Vietnam’s Long An province. Obama kept the pink theme going with her footwear but added a metallic twist, choosing rose gold espadrilles from Sophia Webster. The slip-ons have a leather upper, a braided sole and a round toe. Sophia Webster’s signature butterfly accents the upper, with...

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell previously sparked outrage among...

The $135-million Question: Is the ongoing LIVE televised Democrat Impeachment ‘Inquiry’ of President Donald Trump, a major distraction ruse to keep the masses from pondering how Barack and Michelle Obama became overnight multi-millionaires, said to have a net worth of $135 million? The multi-millions are primarily Michelle’ moolah.

This past weekend Michelle Obama was spotted wearing a gorgeous gown that left many people smiling. During the 2019 American Portrait Gala, she sported a yellow dress topped with a sparkling corset-style overlay. Obama also stunned with soft sultry wavy hair to complete the look. She wore it to present Lin-Manuel Miranda with the Portrait of a Nation Prize, and posted a photo of them together on Instagram.

nthony Scaramucci says President Donald Trump’s “meltdown” is going to get a whole lot worse. On Wednesday night, the former White House communications director who was fired after just 10 days on the job said on CNN that Trump was looking at his future “and the future does not look good for him.” “As more facts unfold about Syria, as more facts unfold about the people that have been arrested recently, and the conjoinment of all those issues over there, it’s going to be devastating for the president,” he said. Scaramucci also predicted that Republicans in the Senate will soon...

Anthony Scaramucci, the quick lived former White House Communications Director for the Trump administration, came out against Donald Trump by claiming the President is a cult leader and “a clear and present danger to the American society.” In addition to media appearances, Scaramucci suggested he is assembling a team of former cabinet members to remove President Trump from being reelected in 2020. At first sight, it appeared Scaramucci made the decision to remove support for President Trump due to his being fired after only serving 11 days on the job. It was likely nothing more than a vain desperate attempt...

But, if he doesn't support President Trump in 2020, then who will he vote for? According to the Washington Examiner, he's been checking out former Vice President Joe Biden.

Less than two weeks before Anthony Scaramucci broke with President Trump, the former White House communications director hosted a dinner in Manhattan with Donald Trump Jr. in a bid to impress clients of a business he owns. The meal, described to the Washington Examiner by three sources, adds intrigue to the timing of Scaramucci's declaration that Trump is "unstable" and unfit for office. Some sources found it odd that Scaramucci would ask Trump Jr. to help promote a business venture — and, according to one account, offer to repay the favor with 2020 fundraisers — just days before vowing to...

A while back, a Freeper posted what I would call a photographic compilation of Michael and Barry before his transition to Michelle, along with the contemporary "package" pictures. The post was in a thread, the subject of which I cannot recall. Also, there were some pictures of "their" daughters and the similarity in appearance to a couple close to the Obamas. The material was great for showing the fraud of Barry and Michael. If anyone happens to remember this post or has the material, could you send me the link?
