For those who are wondering how Barack Obama — a man seemingly engaged in full-time campaigning, fundraising and rabble-rousing — could also have the bandwidth to weaken America both at home and abroad, the answer is really quite simple.
The leader of the free world is actually a woman named Valerie Jarrett, a longtime crony of Barack and Michelle Obama, who appears to call all of the shots in the Oval Office.
In the White House, Jarrett has been linked to a wide variety of scandals and other policy debacles.
There are credible reports that Jarrett blocked the attack on Osama Bin Laden’s compound on three separate occasions.
Similar reports indicate that she gave the “stand down” order to would-be rescuers in Benghazi on 9/11/2012.
In 2012, she was reported to have led Obama’s “secret negotiations” with Iran’s Mullahs. Subsequent accounts depicted Jarrett as working with Iran’s nuclear experts to ensure the Islamic Republic could continue on its march to build nuclear weapons.
On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal‘s Kim Strassel summarized the ramifications of Jarrett’s litany of policy failures in stark terms: everyone but her is expendable.
Among those thrown under Jarrett’s bus: Christina Romer, Jim Jones, Bill Daley, Leon Panetta, Kathleen Sebelius, Rahm Emanuel, Austan Goolsbee, Larry Summers, Peter Orszag, Vivek Kundra, Eric Shinseki, Keith Alexander, James Clapper and, most recently, Chuck Hagel. Hagel’s ostensible replacement, Michèle Flournoy, turned down the opportunity because she didn’t “want to be a doormat.”
As Strassel asks:
Who would want to work for a boss whose experiments in big government all but guarantee their reputation will be ruined in the aftermath of a bureaucratic collapse? … And who wants to work for a boss who doesn’t have your back? … Is it possible to have any other experience working for Mr. Obama—a boss who doesn’t listen, views everything politically, always thinks he’s right, and whose policies are a recipe for a lost reputation?
Which brings us at last to the Democrats’ latest haven for race-baiting, Ferguson.
Jarrett was in contact with Missouri’s Governor Nixon in the run-up to the announcement of the Grand Jury’s decision.
While Nixon denied the administration pressured him to resist activating the National Guard to put down the violent protests, the White House has admitted that Jarrett was in close contact with the governor during the first 24 hours of violent protests.
Nixon came under heavy criticism for failing to deploy the National Guard to quash the protests, which resulted in massive property damage. It now would seem that Jarrett had a hand in that decision as well.
And who is our crypto-president?
In 2008, The Boston Globe exposed Jarrett’s background as the failed chief executive of The Habitat Company, which managed government-subsidized housing complexes in Chicago from 2001 until 2006. Her leadership, if you can call it that, resulted in violations so egregious that many units were deemed “uninhabitable” and eventually the federal government was forced to seize the properties.
That year, Judicial Watch named Jarrett to its “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians” list for her ties to the failed housing complexes and “other shady real estate scandals.”
Jarrett’s family background is equally troubling. Her father-in-law was a card-carrying Communist who worked with Obama’s mentor, Frank Marshall Davis.
Jarrett’s grandfather Robert Taylor is reported to have served in a leadership role for the Soviet Union’s American front group during World War II, when Stalin was still allied with the Third Reich. Taylor’s “American Peace Mobilization” was a Soviet initiative designed to keep America out of the war so that Hitler and Stalin could divvy up Europe and Asia virtually unopposed.
So, in short, the first female President is a hard-core Leftist with an abysmal track record for decision-making, a horrifically failed tenure as a chief executive, a stunning inability to learn and a steely refusal to take responsibilities for her many failures.
But she’s the president and you’re not.
Which explains why Jarrett — against all historic precedent — was given a Secret Service detail for protection.

Just consider the feeble investigations for background checks and security clearances. Terrifying even with those that are admitted to the WH that are not on the visitors logs. Ah, but the Clinton White House was precisely the same.

reports that the Communists (who were represented at the November 5, 2014 Oval Office meeting, along with black racists, and criminal anarchists and given Obama’s blessing)passed out literature, waved their Communist flag(s) and megaphoned:
“The only solution is a Communist revolution.”
Valerie Jarrett is Obama’s “handler” and she is a lifelong Communist-Socialist like Barack.
Barack in my presence in the summer of 1981 said “I’m a Marxist-Leninist” in describing himself and his beliefs. He made no bones about wanting to one day overthrow the United States of America, verbally, publicly in a restaurant at a table directly next to my booth where we were eating while he did his Communist Central Committee interview, which the interviewer (whom I have elsewhere named and identified publicly) specifically said to him that he was an official representative of for the purposes of this interview, or words to this effect.
Remember, that back then, the vast majority of Communists in America were required with the insistence that they MUST disavow the United States Constitution and swear undying allegiance to promote and uphold the Soviet Constitution.
If Valerie Jarrett handles Obama as an agent of Communism, this begs the question, who handles and advises Valerie Jarrett just prior to her handling and directing or advising Obama?
The Trogan Horse aught to be leaning far enough left to fall with this Ferguson connection; actually makes the Gov a liar for sure! The Lt Gov was right on target…. Congress should call for her to be fired. Most of them know she’s been BHO’s handler now for years. But politics have kept all from talking about it. Everybody is covering everybody’s ass in D.C.
This should complete the MB connection to the WH…
