"It Definitely Wasn't Barack's First Time": Obama's Crack-Fueled Gay Tryst Accuser Talks To Tucker
Ever since Barack Obama biographer David Garrow revealed that the former president told an ex-girlfriend that he "repeatedly fantasizes about making love to men," the internet has been abuzz over Obama's sexual orientation - and whether Michelle Obama is actually a dude.
In his latest interview on X, Tucker Carlson sat down with Larry Sinclair, the man who for 25 years has maintained that he and former President Barack Obama engaged in drug-fueled sex acts, once in the back of a limo and another in a hotel room in Gurnee, Illinois.
Of note, Sinclair has a long rap sheet - including convictions on forgery, fraud and larceny charges. He's served prison time in Arizona, Colorado and Florida - a history which has been widely used to discredit Sinclair's claims which he first made in 2008 when Obama was running for president.
"You're just a guy who's in town for the night and it sounds like you're looking to party?" asked Tucker of the alleged encounter, in which he says a limo driver introduced him to Obama after asking for help finding someone to 'party' with.
"There's this guy that's introduced to me as Barack Obama," Sinclair replied.
"I had given Barack $250 to pay for Coke," Sinclair continued. "I start putting a line on a CD tray to snort and next thing I know he's got a little pipe and he's smoking."
To which Carlson then asked: "Even though you had sex with him twice, you did cocaine with him, watched him smoke crack twice, you had no idea who he was?"
"I had no idea who he was," Sinclair replied, adding "It definitely wasn't Barack's first time and I would almost be one to bet it wasn't his last." — ZeroHedge

Our Take: “Typically, I tend to stay away from the more sensational fare when it comes to the alleged infidelities and ‘trysts’ of the so-called ‘elite,’ and not because I don’t see it as credible or fair game, but rather because it’s secondary to the core point, which is that their debauchery is some mix of cover or side effect for the true evils they visit upon the world through the implementation of communist, even Satanic ideology.
BUT … this one is pretty good, because this one is pretty funny.
Also, should we officially start the countdown of when the Establishment left is going to start deploying Overton’s Goalpost, claiming we ALWAYS knew Obama was gay and that ‘Big Mike’ was, well, exactly what all the memes suggested sHe was?” —
Republicans Reject Motions To Dismiss Impeachment Articles Against Texas AG Ken Paxton
The Texas Senate chamber was turned into a courtroom for the historic impeachment trial of state Attorney General Ken Paxton, which kicked off Tuesday morning at the state Capitol in Austin, Texas.
After the swearing-in of the 30 senators who will decide whether or not to remove Mr. Paxton from office, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick began ticking off the pretrial motions before hearing opening statements.
Mr. Paxton was impeached on 20 articles in late May by the GOP-led House of Representatives in a vote of 121–23. He is only the third sitting official to be impeached in the state's nearly 200-year history. The last impeachment case was more than a century ago.
The articles of impeachment include allegations of abuse of power and bribery, among others. Mr. Paxton and his lawyers have maintained that all of the accusations are false.
The suspended attorney general is known as one of the most conservative lawmakers in the state of Texas. He has filed more than two dozen lawsuits against the Biden administration since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021.
Dozens of Paxton supporters wearing red shirts showed up to witness the proceedings. — The Epoch Times
Our Take: “Attorney General Ken Paxton is the only AG in the nation to seriously investigate evidence of election fraud. So, of course, they’re impeaching him.
It’s become increasingly clear that the regime isn’t just coming for Trump, but for everyone who stands with Trump and everyone who stands for America First.
The fact that Texas Republicans are standing opposed to AG Paxton tells you everything you need to know about Texas Republicans. The party establishment is still very much opposed to the people — across the nation. America First.” —
Blinken, in Kyiv, Says U.S. Will Send $1 Billion More in Aid
Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken announced more than $1 billion in new American aid to Ukraine, speaking in Kyiv during one of the highest-level visits by an American official to the Ukrainian capital since President Biden made the trip in February.
The U.S. aid goes beyond security assistance for Ukraine’s counteroffensive and includes financial and humanitarian aid to help “rebuild a free, resilient, thriving” country after the war, Mr. Blinken said at a joint news conference with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba.
The new American aid includes $300 million to help Ukrainian law enforcement “restore and maintain law and order in liberated areas,” and the United States’ first delivery of mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles, or MRAPs, to Ukraine’s border guards and police, Mr. Blinken said. The United States has already delivered MRAPs to the Ukrainian military. — The New York Times
Our Take: “Sunday night, I posited that, following Kolomoisky’s arrest as part of Zelensky’s anti-corruption probe, we’d see a public about-face by the MSM on Ukraine, specifically re: money.
The next day, the NYT ran a headline about ‘vanishing billions’ and blamed it on Ukraine MIL grifting.
Today,
brought a Bannon clip to my attention in which they laid out the mechanisms behind the US Deep State money laundering scheme.And then … the NYT follows it up with a FRESH piece about the US (Deep) State Department sending another billion their way.
We’re about to see open Info War between the MSM and Ukraine—a sort of alternating Narrative shell game regarding who’s got the stolen US taxpayer money under their mattress.
Game on.” —
EU To Seize On Xi, Putin Absence At G20 To Woo Africa Closer
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping’s absence from the upcoming G20 Summit in New Delhi likely has a number of Western heads of state breathing a sigh of relief, given some sensitive agendas could more easily gain consensus in their absence.
China’s new premier, Li Qiang, is taking Xi's place, while Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is representing Russia. EU officials will reportedly move to endorse the African Union’s bid to become a permanent member of Group of 20, while presenting themselves as the more stable path forward when it comes to Africa investment and engagement.
Bloomberg has reported that this will be the goal of a high-level meeting with African leaders on the summit's sidelines. This comes at a very sensitive moment for Europe given the coup events in Niger.
More broadly, the past years have witnessed a series of junta governments come to power voicing anti-colonial sentiment, aimed particularly at France. — ZeroHedge
Our Take: “The tug of war for Africa continues, and it appears the massive continent is the jewel of the Great Reset to the New World Order. As we reported earlier this week, Xi is snubbing the G20. In his absence, the EU is going to try and convince the Africa Union not just that they still matter, but that they’re the better bedfellow.
This appears as an afterthought for the established order, particularly in light of the significant groundwork that China and Russia have been laying in the region. I continue to believe that the African people will reclaim their sovereignty from the two terrible suitors.” —
GOP Governors Say 'Not Happening Here' After Maryland School Implements N-95 Mask Mandate
The actions of one Maryland school - mandating n-95 masks after a tiny outbreak of COVID - has prompted fierce criticism from at least ttwo Republican governors.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, that it’s “not going to happen in Texas.”
Sarah Huckabee Sanders wrote on X:
“Rest assured that as long as I’m Governor, Arkansas will not force our kids to wear masks in school.”
Presumably, the school has not had a chance to read the latest studies
Crushing COVID Claims: Scientific Review Challenges 'Fact' That Masks Reduced Transmissions
UK Study Finds "No Evidence" Face Masks Protect Vulnerable Against COVID
Watch: Fauci Squirms As CNN Anchor Confronts Him With Data Showing Masks Don't Work
But then again, 'science' is match for ideology and religious zealotry. — ZeroHedge
Our Take: “It can be true that the Establishment is planning to TRY to bring back mandates, lockdowns and COVID-23 terrorism as the most obvious bit of Hegelian doom mongering we've seen from them yet ...
AND that Ron DeSantis and the Con Inc. brigade stalwartly standing opposed to this attempted rollout in grandiose fashion are representing 'opposing' sides of the same systemic machine.
Opposing authoritarian mandates as a political stunt doesn't codify one as America First. It is now the bare minimum.” —

Spending Billions of our hard-earned tax dollars to fight a proxy war in Ukraine in order to keep the Pandora’s box of [their] corruption sealed. However tightly sealed that cover once was, it is loosening more and more; the winds of Truth, with increasing force, will blow it off. The chaos of [their] own making will boomerang and we will witness, with great satisfaction, how they flounder and thrash about in the spotlight of real and fair and terrible Justice.
For well over a century, the Marxist / “Progressive” agenda conspired and schemed in secret…then we learned their playbook. Larry Sinclair’s interview gave a perfect example: [They] found a charismatic black guy to campaign on healing racial problems…and then they did the exact opposite!
Thank you, Badlanders for the Daily Briefs and Takes which I look forward to every weekday morning ❤️🇺🇸🙏
Regarding Obama on the Coke and Hershey Highway: The MSM has for years denied the existence or possibility of the pictures of Michael and Barry together. They gleefully accepted the childishly photoshopped birth certificate. There is NO LEVEL OF PROOF strong enough for the lamestream left to accept.
WHY? Because they do not want to.
They will not allow the downfall of their heros. Look what they did to prop up Clinton. All the women. All of the Drugs during the Arkansas days. EVERYTHING about Lewinsky. All of it shushed and covered up.
And Bill was no Barrack.
Keep sharing all!
