Valerie June Bowman Jarrett is a Senior Advisor to the President of the United States and Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs in the Obama administration and has been confirmed as a Communist agent working within the United States government.
As the Muslim Brotherhood murders thousands of people across the World Hillary Rodham Clinton, Valerie Jarrett and others have been cornered some say by the FBI?
Valerie
Jarrett has been one of Barack Obama’s closest advisers underworld Chicago style, Gangster file advisers in the Oval Office and
it’s no secret her family history is checkered with adherents to Communism, but
a new report from Judicial Watch, the Washington NON Government Funded watchdog group, reveals the
FBI even investigated several of her relatives.
For
example, files obtained by Judicial Watch and posted online show that her
father, James Bowman, was in 1950 in communication with a “paid Soviet agent
named Alfred Stern, who fled to Prague after getting charged with espionage.” The cold war secret Communist agent James Bowman had direct contact with America's enemies.
The
files also reveal, JW reported, “Bowman was … a member of a
Communist-sympathizing group called the Association of Internes and Medical
Students.” This shadow government organization stood to undermine America, Destroy the U.S. Constitution and at the end of the day take over America in which Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett and Hillary Rodham Clinton has accomplished.
Another
document in the files was a note from J. Edgar Hoover to FBI officials in
Denver instructing them to investigate “James Edward Bowman” for his
connections to other suspects.
“It
is incumbent upon you to resolve the question which prompted CSC to refer
instant case. It is also necessary to determine the degree of association
between the applicant and any individual on whom the CSC has furnished
derogatory information,” the note said.
Want
to know more about Obama and just who is guiding him? It’s here, in “Leading
from Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors who Decide for Him.” Valerie Jarrett must be removed from the White House today, by law or legal force if required to protect the national interests of the United States.
It
apparently was in connect with Bowman’s possible involvement with the “European
Recovery Program and was dated 1955.
The
document shows that Jarrett’s grandfather, Robert Taylor, was thought also to
have been “in contact with Stern on a number of occasions.” This mean that the foreign born, Iranian born, White House Adviser with top secret national security clearance Valerie Jarrett was educated and raised by Communist agents.
Bowman
moved to Iran to work after his release from the Army Medical Corps in 1955.
The
report explained, “According to Bowman’s government file the Association of
Internes and Medical Students is an organization that ‘has long been a faithful
follower of the Communist Party line’ and engages in un-American activities.
Bowman was born in Washington, D.C., and had deep ties to Chicago, where he
often collaborated with fellow Communists.”
“JW
also obtained documents on Bowman from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management
(OPM) showing that the FBI was brought in to investigate him for his membership
in a group that ‘follows the communist party line.’ The Jarrett family
Communist ties also include a business partnership between Jarrett’s maternal
grandpa, Robert Rochon Taylor, and Stern, the Soviet agent associated with her
dad.”
Then,
the files reveal, Jarrett’s father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett, “was also another
big-time Chicago Communist.” Jarrett bought her way into the Barack Obama Negro Thug Gang by offering a high paying job to Michelle Obama as a ghost employee. You don't have to show up or be accountable but you do get paid a lot of money. Hiring Michelle Obama, educated with no experience, radical and American hating opened up the Obama doors for Valerie Jarrett and the influence she needed.
The
files were obtained by Judicial Watch as part of its probe “into the Jarrett
family’s Communist ties,” the group reported.
“For
a period of time Vernon Jarrett appeared on the FBI’s Security Index and was
considered a potential Communist saboteur who was to be arrested in the event
of a conflict with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). His FBI file
reveals that he was assigned to write propaganda for a Communist Party front
group in Chicago that would ‘disseminate the Communist Party line among … the
middle class,’” the report said.
Judicial
Watch called Valerie Jarrett, “a liberal extremist who wields tremendous power
in the White House. Faithful to her roots, she still has connections to many
Communist and extremist groups, including the Muslim Brotherhood.
Jarrett and
her family also had strong ties to Frank Marshal Davis, a big Obama mentor and
Community Party member with an extensive FBI file.”
She
previously has been exposed for her role in the Department of Justice
gun-running scandal called “Fast and Furious,” and also when she was, according
to JW, a “key player in the effort to cover up that “Attorney General Eric
Holder lied to Congress about the Fast and Furious.”
Under
that program, the government let guns be smuggled illegally to drug cartels in
Mexico. The purported goal was to trace the guns and their use, but the
government simply lost track of them.
“In
2008 JW got documents linking Valerie Jarrett, who also served as co-chairman
of Obama’s presidential transition team, to a series of real estate scandals,
including several housing projects operated by convicted felon and Obama Chicago Gangster fundraiser/friend Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko,” JW reported.
WND
reported two years ago that a New York Times profile of Valerie Jarrett,
“glossed over her family’s radical history.”
The
profile, from September 2012, received another round of media attention when
BuzzFeed.com reported the White House tried to defend Jarrett behind the scenes
by circulating glowing talking points about her to other administration
officials who were candidates to be interviewed for the Times piece. The Obama administration has been caught again with a card carrying Communist, sworn to destroy America, using whatever means, including the Muslim Brotherhood Jihadists may be the reason Barack Obama refuses to fight the terrorist menace around the world.
The
resulting piece essentially ignored much of her family’s history.
For
example, regarding Jarrett’s mother, the Times said only that “her mother had a
Chicago street named after her for her work in early childhood education.”
But
WND was first to report, Jarrett’s mother, Barbara Taylor Bowman, founded an
education initiative alongside the family of unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers’
that was funded by Ayers, Obama and ultimately the 2009 “stimulus” legislation. Barack Obama is allowing hundreds of thousands of Christians to be killed around the world which is a goal of Islam and Communism. The White House won't talk and the Congress hides under their candy desk's inside the capitol. DNC and GOP leaderships struggles to cut their connections with Chicago, Jarrett family and Communism today.
The
Chicago school, the Erikson Institute, focuses on training people who work in
early childhood development.
WND
also reported earlier Valerie Jarrett in 1987 got her start in politics,
working for Washington as deputy corporation counsel for finance and
development. She was deputy chief of staff for Mayor Richard Daley, during
which time she hired Michelle Robinson, then engaged to Obama which was a Communist plot to infiltrate future political leaders that carried around a price tag on their necks. All the stories and rumors about Barack Obama are coming true which will lead to impeachment and prison if proven absolute.
WND
reported just recently that Obama critics have suspected that the president’s
“tilt toward Iran” in negotiations over that rogue nation’s nuclear program is
because of the influence of Valeria Jarrett, who was born there. Iran is driving the Nuclear Bomb Deal planning to destroy all the jews in the world starting in Israel. Jarrett, Iranian Born Muslim Half Negro Radical must be removed at one, without delay or spinning from the White House.
The Iranian Nuclear Deal must be killed today. The Communist connection becomes clear when you watch the Putin and Obama relationship. We already know that foreign leaders are buying influence from Hillary Rodham Clinton through the money funnel called the "Clinton Foundation" and Russia buys U.S. mined Uranium.
Retired
Lt. Gen. William G. “Jerry” Boykin, former deputy undersecretary of defense for
intelligence under President George W. Bush, spotlighted Jarrett’s influence in
a Fox News interview in February.
“There
are many who are now saying that [Jarrett] is really the architect of this
non-treaty with the Iranians,” he said, “which ultimately will result in the
Iranians having a nuclear program, and America having to accept a nuclear-armed
Iran.” If the Congress will not stop the Iranian nuclear deal then the people of the United States must act harshly against their representatives, including impeachment and removal.
Stanley
Kurtz, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, noted in a 2011
National Review article Jarrett was born and raised in Iran for the first five
years of her life.
“In
explaining how she first grew close to Obama, Jarrett says they traded stories
of their youthful travels,” he wrote.
Kurtz
said Jarrett has affirmed that she and Obama “reject traditional American
exceptionalism.”

Radical
Roots
Valerie
Jarrett was born as Valerie Bowman on November 14, 1956 to American parents in
Shiraz, Iran.
Her
later father—a physician named James Bowman—worked as a pathologist and
geneticist at a children’s hospital in Shiraz as part of a U.S. aid program to
assist developing countries.
Jarrett's
mother is the early-childhood-education author Barbara Taylor Bowman
(born1928), who in 1966 co-founded a Chicago-based graduate school in child
development known as the Erikson Institute, named after the psychoanalyst Erik
Erikson; in 1950 Erikson became a hero to the left by choosing to resign from
his professorship at the University of California rather than sign an
anti-communist loyalty oath as the school required. Indicative of the Erikson
Institute's radical political orientation is the fact that its board of
trustees has included, in addition to Mrs. Bowman, such figures as Tom Ayers
(father of the formerWeather Underground terrorist and lifelong Marxist Bill
Ayers) and Bernardine Dohrn(longtime wife of Bill Ayers). Bill Ayers, for his
part, called Mrs. Bowman “a neighbor and friend” in his 1997 book A Kind and
Just Parent, noting that his neighbors also includedLouis Farrakhan and “writer
Barack Obama.”
Jarrett's
maternal grandfather was a Chicagoan named Robert Taylor, the first
African-American head of the Chicago Housing Authority. In the 1940s he was
involved with such Communist fronts as the American Peace Mobilization and the
Chicago Civil Liberties Committee. Also a member of these groups was Frank
Marshall Davis, the communist journalist who in the 1970s would mentor a young
Barack Obama.
Jarrett's
maternal grandmother, Dorothy Taylor, was a Berkeley, California native who was
active with Planned Parenthood in its early years.
When
Valerie Jarrett was five, her family relocated to London for one year before
settling in Chicago’s elite Hyde Park neighborhood in 1963.
Jarrett
earned a B.A. in psychology from Stanford University in 1978, and a Juris
Doctorate from the University of Michigan Law School in 1981. From 1981-87 she
practiced law at two Chicago-based private firms. In 1983 she married Dr.
William Robert Jarrett, son of the Chicago Sun-Times reporter Vernon Jarrett.
Vernon
Jarrett (Valerie Jarrett's father-in-law) was a pioneering black journalist in
the 1940s.
He freelanced at Kansas City’s The Call from 1954-58, then returned
to Chicago to become the first nationally syndicated black columnist for the
communist-influenced Chicago Defender, where he wrote columns extolling the
Communist poet Langston Hughes andlifelong Stalinists W.E.B. DuBois and Paul
Robeson.
Also in the 1940s, Jarrett was a leade rof the Chicago chapter of
American Youth for Democracy—youth wing of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA).
Moreover, he served on a publicity committee for the Packinghouse Workers
Union, a Chicago-based entity dominated by the CPUSA.
In each of these
endeavors, Vernon Jarrett had close contact with the Communist Frank Marshall
Davis. When Jarrett died in 2004, he was saluted in the pages of People’s
Weekly Worker, the house organ of the CPUSA.
As
historian Paul Kengor summarized in 2014: “[Barack] Obama’s mentor, Frank
Marshall Davis, worked with the literal relatives of Valerie Jarrett—her
grandfather and future father-in-law—in Chicago’s Communist Party circles in
the 1940s.”
In an earlier piece, Kengor put it this way: “So, imagine where we
are today: Barack Obama, Frank Marshall Davis’s political godson, and Valerie
Jarrett, daughter-in-law to Vernon Jarrett and granddaughter of Robert
Taylor—men with links to pro-Stalinism—are the two dominant figures in the
White House, the power center that battled the USSR throughout the Cold War.”
Valerie
Jarrett Enters Politics
Valerie
Jarrett entered Chicago politics in 1987 as Deputy Corporation Counsel for
Finance and Development in the administration of Harold Washington, the city's
first African-American mayor. Jarrett's father-in-law, whom The Washington Post
called “a key influence in [Harold] Washington's decision to run for the
Chicago mayoralty,” may have facilitated Valerie's rise through Chicago’s
political ranks.
After
Mayor Washington’s death in 1987, Valerie Jarrett served as deputy chief of
staff for the next mayor, Richard M. Daley. During her tenure in that post,
Jarrett met and befriended a young lawyer named Michelle Robinson, (the future
Michelle Obama), who at the time was engaged to Barack Obama. In 1991 Jarrett
and her colleague Susan Sher recruited Michelle to Chicago's City Hall, and
Jarrett quickly became a trusted confidante of both the Obamas.
From
1992 through 1995, Jarrett served the Daley administration as commissioner of
the Department of Planning and Development. From 1995-2003, she chaired the
Chicago Transit Board. Sometime in the early 1990s, Marilyn Katz, an
activist/public-affairs consultant with close ties to City Hall—and a former
Students for a Democratic Society radical—introduced Jarrett to Daniel Levin, a
cousin of both Senator Carl Levin (D-Michigan) and Rep. Sander Levin
(D-Michigan).
Slumlord
Years
From
1995-2008 Jarrett worked for Daniel Levin's real-estate firm, the Habitat
Company. In 2007 Jarrett became Habitat's president and CEO, drawing a $300,000
in salary plus $550,000 in deferred compensation.
From
2001-08, the Habitat Company managed Grove Parc Plaza, a federally subsidized,
504-unit public housing complex situated in a neighborhood that Barack Obama
had represented for eight years as a state senator.
But under Habitat's
management, Grove Parc fell into disrepair and became largely uninhabitable,
plagued by a host of unaddressed problems such as collapsed roofs, fire damage,
rodent infestation, and sewage backups.
According to a 2008 Boston Globe report:
“In 2006, federal inspectors graded the condition of the complex an 11 on a
100-point scale—a score so bad the buildings now face demolition.” Eventually government
inspectors seized control of the complex because of its horrid conditions.
Also
under Jarrett's stewardship, said the Globe, “Habitat ... co-managed an even
larger subsidized complex in Chicago that was seized by the federal government in
2006, after city inspectors found widespread problems.”
But
for Jarrett the news was not all bad. Indeed she became immensely wealthy while
presiding over the aforementioned slum apartments.
As of 2012 Jarrett owned an
11-percent equity interest in Kingsbury Plaza, a 46-story luxury apartment
complex developed by the Habitat Company during 2005-07 at a cost exceeding
$100 million.
On her 2011 financial disclosure form, she valued that
investment—which a Jarrett spokesman said was “a direct result of her 13 years
working for Habitat”—at between $1 million and $5 million.
According to a 2012
report in the Washington Free Beacon: “Cook County records show the Kingsbury
property's worth at approximately $27.2 million, but thanks to a series of
legal appeals beginning in 2003, the land and building are assessed at a much
lower value for tax purposes.
Since 2008, the property has been designated a
'special commercial structure' and is taxed at a value of just $6.8 million, or
25 percent of the actual value. Asked how such a property could enjoy such a
low taxable value, an official with the Cook County Assessor’s Office told the
Free Beacon that the property’s owners 'must have good attorneys.'”
Apart
from her duties with the Habitat Compan, Jarrett from 2000-07 was a board
member of the Chicago Stock Exchange. She also served stints as chair of the
University of Chicago Medical Center's Board of Trustees; vice chair of the
University of Chicago's Board of Trustees; a trustee of Chicago's Museum of
Science and Industry; and a board of directors member of USG Corporation, a
Chicago-based building-materials company.
Alliance
With Barack Obama
Following
Barack Obama's victory in the 2008 presidential election, Jarrett co-chaired
the Obama-Biden Transition Project.
After that, she was appointed to a
prominent position in the Obama administration: Senior Advisor and Assistant to
the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs. In this
role, Jarrett was one of President Obama’s (and Mrs. Obama’s) closest and most
trusted advisers.
Consider the following observations, by a variety of informed
sources, about Jarrett's importance as an Obama advisor:
An
Obama 2008 campaign official told the New York Times, “If you want [Barack
Obama] to do something, there are two people [he's] not going to say no to:
Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama.”
Also
in 2008, the aforementioned Susan Sher, who had helped Jarrett recruit Michelle
Obama to the Chicago mayor’s office in 1991, emphasized “how incredibly
instrumental [Jarrett will] be in virtually everything” in the White House.
In
July 2009, President Obama himself told New York Times reporter Robert Draper,
“I trust her [Jarrett] completely … She is family.” Obama said also that he
trusted Jarrett “to speak for me, particularly when we’re dealing with delicate
issues.” When asked, the President admitted that he was in the habit of
soliciting Jarrett's input on his every decision.
The
New York Times described Jarrett as Obama’s “closest friend in the White
House,” his “envoy,” his “emissary,” his “all-purpose ambassador,” and the
“ultimate Obama insider.”
Washington
Post columnist Dana Milbank says that Jarrett's connection to Obama is “deep
and personal,” calling her “the real center of Obama’s inner circle.” Milbank
also describes Jarrett as Obama’s “longtime mentor and friend,” and as someone
in a “position of unparalleled influence over the president.”
Obama's
former White House communications director, Anita Dunn, says: “Her [Jarrett's]
role since she has been at the White House is one of the broadest and most
expansive roles that I think has ever existed in the West Wing.”
Chicago
tycoon Martin Nesbitt says that Jarrett establishes both Michelle and Barack
Obama's “whole notion of authenticity.” According to Nesbitt, Jarrett channels
the Obamas’ inner voice, telling them, for instance: “That’s not you. You
wouldn’t say that. Somebody else is saying that. Barack Obama wouldn’t say
that.”
According
to a November 2014 New Republic report: “Jarrett holds a key vote on Cabinet
picks … and has an outsize say on ambassadorships and judgeships.
She helps
determine who gets invited to the First Lady’s Box for the State of the Union,
who attends state dinners and bill-signing ceremonies, and who sits where at
any of the above. She has placed friends and former employees in important positions
across the administration—'you can be my person over there,' is a common
refrain. And Jarrett has been known to enjoy the perks of high office herself.
When administration aides plan 'bilats,' the term of art for meetings of two
countries’ top officials, they realize that whatever size meeting they
negotiate—nine by nine, eight by eight, etc.—our [the U.S.] side will typically
include one less foreign policy hand, because Jarrett has a standing seat at
any table that includes the president.”
Jarrett
herself is wholy cognizant of the influence she wields with Obama. “We have
kind of a mind meld,” she said in 2009. “And chances are, what he wants to do
is what I’d want to do.” On another occasion Jarrett told Vogue magazine, “I
kind of know what makes them [the Obamas] who they are.”
Jarrett
is deeply concerned with racial issues.
After the tape recordings of Jeremiah
Wright's racist, anti-American diatribes threatened to sink Obama’s 2008
presidential campaign, it was Jarrett who encouraged Obama to give his “race
speech” at Constitution Hall.
African-American administration staffers have
said that without Jarrett's patronage, “their opinions and the often-legitimate
concerns voiced by black leaders like [Al] Sharpton would have been thoroughly
disregarded by the white-dominated senior staff.”
When
future White House press secretary Robert Gibbs tried to downplay Obama’s
assertion (during the 2008 presidential campaign) that Republicans were
emphasizing the fact that Obama “doesn’t look like all those other presidents
on the dollar bills,” Jarrett instructed white staffers:
“You guys, you’re not
getting this issue right.” After Jarrett’s intervention, candidate Obama told
his white staffers that they were too “gun-shy on race issues.” According to a campaign
source, “[M]oving forward, the candidate made it very clear to us that we were
just a bunch of white people who didn’t get it—which, by the way, was true.”
After
Obama's inauguration in January 2009, Jarrett successfully pushed to loosen
restrictions barring government officials from meeting with lobbyists, a rule
enshrined in Obama’s executive memo on the Recovery Act [stimulus bill], for
fear that other “legitimate” concerns—raised by “civil rights organizations
whose directors happen to be registered lobbyists—will not be heard.”
In
early 2009 Jarrett lobbied President Obama to create the office of Chief
Diversity Officer within the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), a
position filled soon thereafter byMark Lloyd, an Alinskyite and a former senior
fellow at the Center for American Progress.
Jarrett
also helped recruit Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, who supports the
Fairness Doctrine and has argued that Americans should “celebrate tax day.”
Without
Jarrett’s patronage, the self-identified communist revolutionary Van Jones
would not have gotten his appointment as the Obama administration's green jobs
czar in March 2009.
A White House official told Politico that Jones “did not go
through the traditional vetting process.” Instead, Jarrett interviewed Jones, a
signal that she pushed for his appointment. Indeed, Jarrett gushed to the
Netroots Nation conference in August 2009:
“We
were so delighted to be able to recruit him [Van Jones] into the White House.
We were watching him…for as long as he’s been active out in Oakland. And all
the creative ideas he has. And so now, we have captured that, and we have all
that energy in the White House.”
Moreover,
Jarrett's office approved the September 2009 invitation of Jameel Jaffer, the
head of the ACLU's “national security project,” to a White House Ramadan
dinner. According to The American Spectator:
“Jaffer
is a cause célèbre to the far left for his career of litigating against the
United States in support of terrorists and radical Islamists, and has proudly
touted his awards from groups like CAIR.
“'We
had other names on the list for invitations, but Jarrett's office wanted Jaffer
in the room. We were told it was important,' says a White House source. 'It was
made clear that his presence was something senior folks here wanted to happen.'
“Jaffer
has filed lawsuits challenging the FBI's 'national security letter' authority
[and] the constitutionality of warrantless wiretaps.
[He] has been a leader in
pushing for the shut down of Guantánamo Bay,
and providing legal rights to
terrorists held by the United States overseas in such countries as Iraq and
Afghanistan.
His efforts enabled the leaking of 'torture photos' out of Iraq
and Afghanistan, and some sources inside the Central Intelligence Agency
believe he was one of the lawyers who provided legal advice to the Department
of Justice to pursue an investigation into enhanced interrogation techniques
used by the CIA."
Collaborating
with the National Endowment for the Arts to Advance the Obama Agenda
On
May 12, 2009, numerous employees in Jarrett's office—and possibly Jarrett
herself—helped co-host a strategy meeting organized by the Nathan Cummings
Foundation.
At this event, some 60 artists were—in the words of one of the
meeting’s organizers—“challenged to come up with promising and attractive ideas
about how artists can work for the [Obama] administration’s agenda.” For
details about the meeting and its attendees, click here.
The
meeting was led by a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) official (Mario
Garcia Durham), two representatives of First Lady Michelle Obama (Joseph
Reinstein and Trooper Sanders), White House arts czar Kareem Dale (who reported
to Valerie Jarrett), and three members of what was then known as the Office of
Public Liason (headed by Jarrett). Those three were Buffy Wicks, Tina Tchen,
and Mike Strautmanis (President Obama’s former chief counsel and a onetime
paralegal at Michelle Obama’s law firm).
In
the meeting, Strautmanis encouraged the group to think of “ways to communicate”
the Obama administration’s agenda “with people and how to motivate them
culturally.”
Buffy Wicks asked briefing participants to “think through how their
networks and organizations can participate in areas such as the arts in
education, healthcare and preventative care, energy and environment, or
economic opportunity.”
And Tina Tchen added, “The administration wants to
sustain energy from the election process and turn it toward the agenda.”
The
notes of the meeting seem to suggest that Valerie Jarrett was present at some
point as well.
Other
noteworthy attendees included:
Sally
Kohn: This community organizer was a senior campaign strategist at the Center
for Community Change and a former Ford Foundation employee. She likened the
artists’ efforts to “a movement to create a climate for change, banging down
that door.” In September 2007, Kohn had written an entry at Daily Kospraising
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for “speak[ing] some blunt truths about
the Bush Administration” and the “horrors” for which it was allegedly
responsible.
Alli
Chagi-Starr: With ties to such groups as Green For All, the Ella Baker Center
for Human Rights, Global Exchange, and Code Pink, this activist helped bring
protesters to the violent anti-WTO demonstrations in Seattle in 1999.
Judith
F. Baca: This artist once noted that some of her Los Angeles-area public murals
“were about drug abuse, including the government-supported influx of drugs into
the communities, including the Las Tres issue in Los Angeles, where three
people were imprisoned for shooting a narcotics agent who was bringing
narcotics into the community.”
John
Malpeade: This founder of the Los Angeles Poverty Department traveled to Bolivia
in July 2009 to perform Agents & Assets, a play focusing on “CIA
involvement in cocaine trafficking into the Los Angeles area in the 1980s in
order to support the Contra war in Nicaragua.”
He once declared, “The hoarding
of wealth and power results in the gross inability of American society to
efficiently allocate its abundant resources to generate social capital or
well-being for its citizenry.”
Ian
Inaba: The co-executive director of Citizen Engagement Lab, Inaba
produce drapper Eminem’s videos “Mosh” and “White America.” As a blogger for the
Guerrilla News Network, he eulogized Gary Webb, the man who, in a series of
articles for the San Jose Mercury News, popularized the false story of the U.S.
government selling crack to inner city youth to finance the Iran-Contra
scandal.
Dudley
Cocke: This director of the Roadside Theater in Kentucky proudly boasts of
having worked “with organizers with some training in the Saul Alinsky school --
for example, the Industrial Areas Foundation.” Cocke shares their ideology.
Rha
Goddess: This female hip-hop artist and Code Pink ally declares, “I use my art
as a vehicle for liberation and social change.” She co-founded the Sista II
Sista Freedom School for Young Women of Color and is the former international
spokeswoman for the Universal Zulu Nation (UZN), a group whose beliefs are
expressed in a manifesto that echoes the Nation of Islam’s “white devils”
theology:
“To put one race over the other because you feel your one race is
better than the other race) is wrong and when you do this, you indeed have
become a race of Devils, causing destruction to everything that is life or
truth on this planet so-called Earth or in the Universe.” UZN's doctrinal
statement contains numerous references to “this planet so-called Earth,” and to
“bloodsuckers” in “secret societies.”
Kim
Hastreiter: This editor and co-founder of the PAPER Publishing Company once
wrote: “I kept thinking about how after September 11th, every artist I knew
agreed that the horror we had witnessed was actually a major piece of
performance art that could not possibly have been conceived by a lawyer or a
politician, but more likely by a jihadist with a wild imagination and an
artist’s mind.”
Matthew
Brady: He is the creative director of Global Inheritance, a group that seeks to
use “the power of creativity to create and push for progressive social change
while rejecting conflict.”
Milly
Hawk Daniel: She was vice president for communications at Policy Link,
a self-described “national research and action institute advancing economic and
social equity.”
Also
in attendance were Maria Teresa Petersen, founding executive director of Voto Latino;
Caron Atlas and Ryan Friedrichs of State Voices; Robert “Biko” Baker, executive
director of the League of Young Voters; Michelle Miller, manager of popular
media organizing at the SEIU; Denise Brown, executive director of the Leeway
Foundation; and Michelle Coffey, senior philanthropic advisor with the Tides
Foundation.
More
Examples of Jarrett's Influence on the Obama Administration
When
President Obama publicly stated that Massachusetts police had acted “stupidly”
in arresting Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates for disorderly conduct in July
2009 (click here for details), Jarrett urged Obama to walk back those remarks
because she worried that they would be perceived as disrespectful to police.
In
his book Leading From Behind, author Richard Miniter reveals that Jarrett,
prior to the May 2011 U.S. killing of Osama bin Laden, repeatedly urged
President Obama not to kill the al Qaeda leader, prompting Obama to cancel the
mission on three separate occasions—in January, February, and March of 2011.
Jarrett
was concerned about the political damage that could result if the mission were
to fail.
In
2010-11 Jarrett promoted the California-based solar-power company Solyndra,
where one of her wealthiest Chicago connections, billionaire George Kaiser—a
leading Obama bundler—held a 35% share in the company. On Jarrett's advice,
President Obama famously visited and publicly extolled Solyndra in 2010, even
though auditors were already warning about the abysmal state of its finances.
In September 2011 the company declared bankruptcy, but not before it had
received a $535 million government-backed loan.
In
September 2011, Jarrett said the following about what she viewed as the proper
role of government: “We have to give people a livelihood so they can provide
for their families.... His [President Obama's] is a moral vision. It's a vision
based very deeply in values and taking care of 'the least of these.' And making
sure that we are creating a country that's a country for everybody, not just
for the very, very wealthy. We are working hard to lift people out of poverty
and give them a better life, a footing, and that’s what government is supposed
to do.”
A
September 2012 New York Times report identifies Jarrett as the person
responsible for a number of controversial Obama Administration policy
decisions, including: (a) the Affordable Care Act's call for an insurance
mandate for contraceptives, abortifacients, and sterilization procedures; (b)
President Obama's decision to sue the state of Arizona for its immigration-enforcement
statute (SB-1020); and (c) the president's decision to allow illegal immigrants
to apply for work permits.
In
March 2012, Jarrett was a major presenter at J Street’s Third Annual
Conference.
In
an interview with Walter Isaacson at the 2012 Aspen Ideas Festival, Jarrett
recalled a meeting in which she had participated a year-and-a-half earlier with
four "Dream Act kids"—young illegal immigrants who had walked from
Miami to Washington, DC as part of the 2010 “Trail of Dreams” program sponsored
by such groups as Students Working for Equal Rights and the Florida Immigrant
Coalition. Said Jarrett:
“I
call them kids. They’re actually young adults. They walked from Florida to
Washington. Walked. And they wanted to see the president. And of course they
couldn’t come into the White House because they’re here illegally, and they
would have been picked up. And so I ventured across the street, across the
park, to a church and I met them in the church. And I’ve now met with them four
or five times. And each time I would leave in tears. Because they are exactly
the kind of people we would want in this country.... They are the best that we
have.”
In
October 2012 it was revealed that for several months, Jarrett, who had no
experience in international negotiations, had been leading secret negotiations
with representatives of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, in an effort to
develop normalized relations between the U.S. and Iran.
A
few days before the November 2012 presidential election, a representative from
Jarrett's office quoted Jarrett as having told several senior staffers the
following: “After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone
not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The
ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they
deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us
this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges
ready to go.”
Reports
of Jarrett's Role in Leaking the Information That Sparked the Hillary Clinton
Email Scandal
In
early March 2015, it was reported that throughout her entire four-year
(2009-13) tenure as Secretary of State (SOS), Hillary Clinton -- in blatant
violation of government regulations --had never acquired or used a government
email account, and instead had transmitted all of her official government
correspondences via a personal email address that she registered on the very
same day as her confirmation hearings for SOS began.
The personal email address
--hdr22@clintonemail.com -- traced back to a private email server that was
situated inside Mrs. Clinton's home in Chappaqua, New York.
In mid-March, longtime author and
journalist Ed Klein reported that according to his sources, Valerie Jarrett had
leaked this information -- embarrassing and potentially damaging to Clinton's
political aspirations -- to the press. According to Klein, Jarrett "did so
through people outside the administration, so the story couldn’t be traced to
her or the White House."Added Klein:
"In
addition, at Jarrett’s behest, the State Department was ordered to launch a
series of investigations into Hillary’s conduct at Foggy Bottom, including the
use of her expense account, the disbursement of funds, her contact with foreign
leaders and her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation.
Six separate
probes into Hillary’s performance have been going on at the State Department.
I’m told that the email scandal was timed to come out just as Hillary was on
the verge of formally announcing that she was running for president — and that
there’s more to come...."
"The
sabotage is part of an ongoing feud between the two Democrat powerhouses. Last
fall, during the run-up to the 2014 midterm elections, Jarrett was heard to
complain bitterly that the Clintons were turning congressmen, senators,
governors and grassroots party members against Obama by portraying him as an
unpopular president who was an albatross around the neck of the party.
Jarrett
was said to be livid that most Democrats running for election refused to be
seen campaigning with the president. She blamed the Clintons for marginalizing
the president and for trying to wrest control of the Democratic Party away from
Obama. And she vowed payback."
"My
sources say Jarrett saw an opportunity to hit back hard when Monica Lewinsky
suddenly resurfaced after years of living in obscurity. Jarrett discreetly put
out word to some friendly members of the press that the White House would look
with favor if they gave Monica some ink and airtime."
"Relations
have gotten even frostier in the past few months.
After the Democrats took a
shellacking in the midterms, the White House scheduled a meeting with Hillary
Clinton. When she showed up in the Oval Office, she was greeted by three people
— the president, Jarrett and Michelle Obama. With his wife and Jarrett looking
on, Obama made it clear that he intended to stay neutral in the presidential
primary process — a clear signal that he wouldn’t mind if someone challenged
Hillary for the nomination. 'Obama and Valerie Jarrett will go to any lengths
to prevent Hillary from becoming president,' a source close to the White House
told me. 'They believe that Hillary, like her husband, is left of center, not a
true-blue liberal.'"
"'With
Obama’s approval,' this source continued, 'Valerie has been holding secret
meetings with Martin O’Malley [the Democratic former governor of Maryland] and
[Massachusetts Sen.] Elizabeth Warren. She’s promised O’Malley and Warren the
full support of the White House if they will challenge Hillary for the
presidential nomination.'"

It’s
the vast left-wing conspiracy.
President
Obama’s senior adviser Valerie Jarrett leaked to the press details of Hillary
Clinton’s use of a private email address during her time as secretary of state,
sources tell me.
But
she did so through people outside the administration, so the story couldn’t be
traced to her or the White House.
In
addition, at Jarrett’s behest, the State Department was ordered to launch a
series of investigations into Hillary’s conduct at Foggy Bottom, including the
use of her expense account, the disbursement of funds, her contact with foreign
leaders and her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation.
Six
separate probes into Hillary’s performance have been going on at the State
Department. I’m told that the email scandal was timed to come out just as
Hillary was on the verge of formally announcing that she was running for
president — and that there’s more to come.
Members
of Bill Clinton’s camp say the former president suspects the White House is the
source of the leak and is furious.
‘OBAMA
AND VALERIE JARRETT WILL GO TO ANY LENGTHS TO PREVENT HILLARY FROM BECOMING
PRESIDENT.’

“My
contacts and friends in newspapers and TV tell me that they’ve been contacted
by the White House and offered all kinds of negative stories about us,” one of
Bill’s friends quotes him as saying.
“The Obamas are behind the email story,
and they’re spreading rumors that I’ve been with women, that Hillary promoted
people at the State Department who’d done favors for our foundation, that John
Kerry had to clean up diplomatic messes Hillary left behind.”
Then,
according to this source, Bill added: “The Obamas are out to get us any way
they can.”

President
Obama canceled the operation to kill Osama bin Laden three times before saying
yes, because he got cold feet about the possible political harm to himself if
the mission failed. Instead of listening
to advisors from the U.S. military, Defense, or even State, Obama was acting on
the advice of White House politico and close friend Valerie Jarrett. Valerie Jarrett?
This
account comes from Richard Miniter's upcoming book Leading From Behind: The
Reluctant President and the Advisors who Decide for Him. Miniter has written a half-dozen books on the
war on terror. He is relying on an
unnamed source within the U.S. military Joint Special Operations Command who was
directly involved in the operation and planning of the Osama bin Laden kill
mission.
Is
the story credible? According to Edward
Klein, a reporter once asked Obama if he ran every decision by Jarrett. Obama answered, "Yep. Absolutely."
Edward
Klein, former foreign editor of Newsweek and editor of the New York Times
Magazine for many years, describes Jarrett as "ground zero in the Obama
operation, the first couple's friend and consigliere." Klein -- who claims he used a minimum of two
sources for each assertion in his book on the Obama presidency, The Amateur --
writes in detail about Jarrett opposing the raid on bin Laden. She told Obama not to take the political
risk. Klein thought Obama ignored
Jarrett's advice. Miniter tells us he
listened to her, three times telling Special Operations not to take the risk to
go after bin Laden.
We
need to understand the role Valerie Jarrett plays in Obama's private and
political life.
"If
it wasn't for Valerie Jarrett, there'd be no Barack Obama to complain
about," starts Klein's chapter on Jarrett.
He quotes Michelle Obama on Jarrett's influence over her husband:
"She knows the buttons, the soft spots, the history, the context."
No
one outside Michelle has the access or power over Obama's decision-making like
Jarrett does. Here's an odd little fact
that gives some insight into what kind of president Obama is: Michelle,
Michelle's mother, and Valerie, and only a few others in Washington, are
allowed to call Barack by his first name.
After work, Jarrett joins Obama at night in the Family Quarters, where
she dines often with the First Family.
She goes on vacation with them.
Jarrett's
title is the weird mouthful "Assistant to the President for Public
Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs."
She is the gatekeeper, but she is also much more than that. She occupies Karl Rove's and Hillary's old
office and has an all-access pass to meetings.
She shows up at the National Security Council, at meetings on the
economy and budget. She stays behind to
advise Obama on what to think and do.
Obama uses her as his left-wing conscience. Klein's sources describe how at each pressing
issue, Obama turns to ask her, "What do you think the right thing to do
is?" As president, he likes to have
her next to him "as the voice of authentic blackness in a White House that
is staffed largely by whites."
A
longtime friend told Klein that Jarrett is the "eyes, ears and nose"
of the Obamas. She tells them whom to
trust, who is saying what, whom to see at home and abroad. Michelle wants her there: "I told her
... it would give me a sense of comfort to know that (Barack) had somebody like
her there by his side." As Obama
told the New York Times, "Valerie is one of my oldest friends. ... I trust
her completely."
To
understand why Obama relies so heavily on Jarrett, we must remember the
president's identity crisis as a black man, which is the main subject of his
memoir, Dreams from My Father. Valerie
Jarrett's adoption of the Obamas as her friends and protégés in Chicago's
upper-crust black society was one of the greatest things that ever happened to
Obama. Until becoming a community
organizer, Obama tells us he felt himself to be an inauthentic American
black. Nothing in his life helped him
understand or fit into the American black community.
Within
a few weeks of Obama's birth, conceived out of wedlock as he was, his mother
moved away to a different college, leaving Obama's African birth father behind
in Honolulu. There may have been a
shotgun wedding or not -- in the memoir, Obama says he is not sure. The only time Barack set eyes on his father was
a brief visit when he was ten. Our
president lived with his white mother, then with her and her Indonesian husband
in Indonesia from age six to ten. He was
so unhappy that he chose to leave his mother and live with his white
grandparents back in America. Obama's
America was the tolerant, wealthy American world of Honolulu's top prep school.
His
only black experience was his grandfather's creepy old friend, Frank Marshall
Davis, a card-carrying Communist and self-disclosed pederast, who was Obama's voice
of authentic blackness. One result of
this lonely and unhappy childhood as a mixed-race child was Barack Obama's envy
problem. The key to understanding
Jarrett's power over the president is that Obama didn't just envy people with
normal parents and loving, successful fathers.
He envied American blacks, especially those who grew up in intact black
families, knowing who they were, comfortable in their black skin.
Valerie
Jarrett reflects Obama in many ways.
Like himself, Valerie looks more white than black. Her mother had three white grandparents, and
her father was black. Like Obama, she
lived in the Muslim world for part of her childhood, when her father practiced
medicine in Iran. Like Obama, she is a
committed leftist. But there are crucial
differences. Her father was not a drunk
Kenyan polygamist like Obama's, but a famous pathologist and geneticist. Her mother was not a leftist expatriate like
Obama's, but a distinguished psychologist.
Valerie married into Chicago's black elite, the top rung of
African-American society. She went to
Stanford, got a law degree from Michigan, and became Mayor Richard Daley's
deputy chief of staff, "the public black face" of his administration.
When
Valerie Jarrett hired Michelle to work for Daley and befriended her, the Obamas
gained access to the exclusive world of upper-class black Chicago
politics. Valerie knew everyone whom it
was important to know in black and Jewish money circles. She gave Barack entrée and legitimacy. She financed and promoted his ambitions for
national office.
Obama
finally belonged. Not that Jarrett's
record in Chicago was anything to be proud of.
Jarrett was known for her corruption and incompetence. Daley finally had to fire her after a scandal
erupted over her role in misuse of public funds in the city's substandard
public housing. She went on to become
CEO of Habitat Executive Services, pulling down $300,000 in salary and $550,000
in deferred compensation. Again, she
managed a housing complex that was seized by government inspectors for slum
conditions. The scandal didn't matter to
Obama. The sordid corruption was all
part of Jarrett's Chicago success story.
Every
insider in Chicago told Klein the same thing: Jarrett has no qualifications to
be the principal advisor to the president of the United States. She doesn't understand how Washington works,
how relations with Congress work, how the federal process works. She doesn't understand how the economy works,
how the military works, how national security works. But she understands how Obama works.
The
president turns to Valerie Jarrett for definitive advice on all these
issues. She has given him terrible
advice over and over, and still he turns to her.
Her
true job is to make Obama feel proud of himself. When Obama looks at Jarrett, he sees himself
as whole and good and real. He is no
longer the fake black, the fatherless kid flailing around in a white world,
tortured by the unfairness of it all.
She fills the emptiness at the core of his identity. She admires and adores him. Jarrett told New Yorker editor David Remnick
that the president is "just too talented to do what ordinary people
do." And the icing on the cake --
she shares his left-wing politics that project unfairness out onto white America.
Obama
relies on Jarrett to create the White House bubble he likes to live in, where
his narcissism is stroked and his desire to do the big, left-wing thing is
encouraged. Jarrett is the doorman. She runs access to the president. As Klein puts it, she guards him from meeting
with "critics and complainers who might deflate his ego." No one gets past Jarrett who has an
incompatible point of view.
Jarrett
pushed ObamaCare. At the beginning of
Obama's presidency, there was pressure on Obama to focus on the economic
crisis. Rahm Emanuel advised a small,
bipartisan health care reform with popular items such as coverage for young
adults -- to get it passed quickly and focus on the country's money
problems. Jarrett urged the president to
be true to his left-wing agenda. She was
all for having Reid-Pelosi create the ObamaCare assault on the American health
system and ramming it through on a one-party vote, using Chicago-style
politics, while Obama crossed the country doing what he does best: make
speeches. Obama liked Jarrett's
idea. Emanuel is now out of the White
House.
Jarrett
pushed the Solyndra fiasco. Jarrett
promoted Solyndra because one of her richest Chicago connections, billionaire
George Kaiser, a top Obama bundler, had a 35% share in Solyndra. Kaiser visited the White House sixteen times.
Larry
Summers, the director of the president's National Economic Council, warned
Obama that the federal government should not get involved in venture capital of
any sort. Summers understood that crony
capitalism sabotages economic growth.
Huge government funding distorts and destroys whatever market segment it
touches, replacing economic decisions with political ones.
A
member of Obama's finance committee warned the president that Solyndra was
going bankrupt. But it is Obama and
Valerie who see eye to eye, and they saw the value to Obama of rewarding his
political cronies. It worked fine in
Chicago. Larry Summers is now out of the
White House.
Jarrett
pushed Obama to take on the Catholic Church over contraception, arguing that it
would appeal to single women (she was right) and that religious freedom isn't
important (she was wrong). Bill Daley,
who had replaced Rahm Emmanuel as chief of staff, argued against Obama pushing
contraception on the Church and invited Archbishop Timothy Cardinal Dolan of
New York to meet with a displeased Obama, who didn't appreciate hearing from
the Church. Daley is now out of the
White House.
Valerie
Jarrett is the most powerful woman in Washington. She has guided the president's decisions on
health care, the budget, the stimulus, the deficit, foreign affairs.
So
when Jarrett told Obama that the mission to kill bin Laden was too politically
risky, and to play it safe, it is entirely plausible to believe that the
president listened to her. It is
consistent with everything we know about Obama's dependence on her. According to Miniter's source in the U.S.
Military Joint Special Operations Command,
Obama listened to her for four months, dithering and deciding no the
first three times the military told him that the time to get bin Laden was now.
In
The Amateur, Klein reports that another worry won out. Obama was even more scared of the political
fallout if voters learned he'd passed up the chance to get bin Laden. What decided him wasn't the national
interest, but politics. For once, the
president disagreed with Valerie Jarrett.
