The myth of Obama’s ‘disappearance’

The myth of Obama’s ‘disappearance’
Excerpt: ... Obama is doing far more to shape the political landscape than is visible. In fact, for an ex-prez, he’s taking an unusually active role in politics, including helping radical protest groups fight Trump and his policies and devising a scheme to flip the GOP majority in the House and permanently turn red seats blue. From his sprawling DC office not far from the White House, where he oversees a full-time staff of 20, Obama has held regular meetings with Democratic lawmakers, as well as DNC chief Tom Perez, whom he personally helped install to run the Democratic Party. Obama has also met with his attorney general, Eric Holder, to craft a strategy to redraw congressional district maps in Democrats’ favor, according to Politico. Holder now runs the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, which Obama helped his old friend launch. (Not "former" attorney general? Holder needs to answer for Fast and Furious and Obama for....well, 8 years of hell. Needs to open his records not just say stored electronically. Should never have been allowed to run for office without vetting. --Barb)
