| White House On Defense After Being Exposed as Architect of U.N. Resolution |
| 2016-12-30 |
| [Washington Free Beacon] Senior Obama administration officials are scrambling to provide explanations after multiple reports, including in the Washington Free Beacon, identified the White House as being a chief architect of a recent United Nations resolution condemning the state of Israel, according to conversations with multiple former and current U.S. officials. The administration’s denials of this charge broke down during the past several days as multiple reporters confirmed the Obama administration worked behind-the-scenes to help shape and forward the resolution. While the White House issued multiple denials, further reports from Israel and Europe have confirmed Vice President Joe Biden phoned Ukraine’s president. It also has come to light that Kerry held a meeting in December with senior Palestinian diplomat Saeb Erekat. Documents believed to have been leaked by Egypt confirm that Kerry and Erekat discussed forwarding the resolution, a charge that senior White House officials continue to deny. As with the meeting between Kerry and Erekat, the phone call between Biden and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has been confirmed multiple times by a plethora of sources in the United States, Israel, and Europe following the Free Beacon’s initial report. One senior Obama administration official who spoke to the Free Beacon said the White House did not help draft the resolution, as Israeli leaders have suggested in recent days. However, these claims have been disputed by multiple sources who spoke to the Free Beacon both on and off the record about the situation. The administration has not yet addressed the discrepancy between its own narrative and that being revealed in the press.

| #5 Every regulations and executive order has a name or number. Trump just needs to put someone in charge of collecting those, writing up cancel Executive Order YYZ and having it ready for him to sign the first hour. It really shouldn't be a big deal except that Obama will put things in like every black man gets 1 million dollars as slavery recompense and Trump cancelled it type thing to spoil any future approachment between Trump and african americans. |

| #2 Götterdämmerung I suspect the WH to unleash wave after wave of regulations, executive orders and pardons in acts of pure childish demands to Obama and his sense of power. As the end draws close, it will be more and more obvious even to leftards that the One is a malevolent hater of traditional America in all it's forms. Interestingly, Champ plans to stay in DC and lecture us for the entire Trump Presidency, unwittingly furthering the emasculation of the democrat party into minorities and intellectual socialists as they are swept into the dust in of history along with the Whigs, Bull Moose and IWW. |
