The media continue to publish and
broadcast stories about how Donald Trump won the election with the help
of the Russians, calling this “collusion,” though no such evidence has
surfaced. Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper has stated
that he had “no knowledge of evidence of collusion between Russia and
the Trump campaign.” Assertions of Russian influence have been latched
onto by Democrats and a liberal media with the sole intention of
delegitimizing the Trump administration.
After all, the media, and Democrats, clearly would prefer to return to the age of Obama. While hearings are planned
for March 20 by the House Intelligence Committee to look into the issue
of Russian influence in the presidential election, as well as President
Trump’s claim that Obama ordered wiretaps and surveillance on parts of
his campaign—charges that have repeatedly been called “baseless”—there
are other tracks that I have suggested that investigators and journalists should probe.
If Congress is looking for something to
investigate, it should perhaps start first with the shadow apparatus
that Obama has erected for himself after leaving office. Our former
president has set up shop just a couple of miles from the White House,
and brought along his top adviser, Valerie Jarrett, who has reportedly
moved into the Obama’s new home. Obama is continuing to influence
Washington, D.C. and nationwide politics through the mobilization of
tens of thousands of volunteers under the umbrella of Organizing for
Action (OFA). Oddly, on Twitter, Obama continues to identify himself as president, rather than as a former president.
