From Kingmaker to Court Jester: Obama’s Relevance Problem I feel like a prophet sometimes—not the fiery, staff-wielding kind, but the kind who just calls out the obvious while everyone else is distracted by shiny objects. Case in point: Barack Obama. People have spent years debating whether he’s the puppeteer pulling Joe Biden’s strings. Spoiler alert: Obama isn’t even the puppeteer of his own Netflix queue. Here’s what I wrote recently: [START]
For years, many people have insisted that Barack Obama is the puppeteer behind Joe Biden’s presidency, labeling it Obama’s "third term." The idea has become a refrain among political commentators and average citizens alike. But let me be clear: Obama is no puppet master. In fact, he isn't even in control of his own home—let alone the White House. Imagine being the former leader of the free world and your wife can make you crap your pants when she yells or gives you "the look." That statement isn’t meant to be an attack on Michelle Obama, nor am I suggesting she’s an abuser. But everybody knows she could kick Barack's behind.
[END] Let’s unpack that. Obama was once hailed as the cool, collected rock star of politics—a sort of "Hope and Change" Mick Jagger with less hair and more teleprompters. But now? He’s more like the aging pop star who insists on playing his new album while everyone’s just waiting for the hits. Democrats still treat him like he’s the political Elvis, but by 2012 his star power was dimmer than a flashlight with a dying battery. Sure, he’s still out there, signing books and giving speeches, but does anyone care? His relevance is like a Blockbuster card in a Netflix world: quaint, nostalgic, and entirely unnecessary. Even his attempt to rewrite history falls flat. Obama once bragged that his administration was scandal-free. This is the same guy whose tenure included Fast and Furious, the IRS targeting conservatives, Benghazi, and let’s not forget, his healthcare website worked about as well as a screen door on a submarine. Then there’s his recent speech at the Obama Foundation's Democracy Forum, where he tried to drop some wisdom about pluralism and democracy: [START]
"Pluralism is not about holding hands and singing ‘Kumbaya.’ It is not about abandoning your convictions and folding when things get tough. It is about recognizing that, in a democracy, power comes from forging alliances and building coalitions and making room in those coalitions not only for the woke, but the waking."
[END] Really? The woke and the waking? Sounds like a rejected tagline for a bad zombie movie. And let’s talk about the gall it takes for Obama to accuse anyone else of weaponizing the judiciary or targeting political opponents. That’s rich coming from the guy who turned the IRS into his personal attack dog. Miranda Devine nailed it when she said, "It’s over for Obama. The spell is broken."

[SEGMENT 1-2] Obama is done 2 If I prove you wrong on Obama, would you believe me on other matters?   Buck Sexton chimed in with "Ever since his last minute desperate smear of Trump with the ‘very fine people on both sides’ lie, Barack Obama has been slowly realizing his status as false prophet of the Democrat party is no more." Obama’s fall from grace isn’t just poetic; it’s downright Shakespearean. He’s like King Lear, wandering the stormy heath of irrelevance, shouting about pluralism while the world moves on. The Democrats needed a star, a unifying figure to rally behind. Instead, they’re stuck with Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the ghost of Barack Obama, still trying to relive his 2008 glory days. But here’s the punchline: Obama isn’t the problem. He’s the symptom of a party that’s all style and no substance. They’re the political equivalent of a fancy French pastry that looks amazing but collapses when you bite into it. And Obama? He’s the powdered sugar on top—pretty, sweet, and entirely superfluous. So no, Obama isn’t pulling the strings. He’s not even in the room. At best, he’s the guy in the nosebleeds, watching the game and occasionally yelling advice no one listens to. And honestly? That’s probably for the best.

"Welcome to The Kevin Jackson Radio Show, the only place where common sense gets served hotter than McDonald’s coffee in the '90s. We’re here to dive into the absurd, untangle the outrageous, and remind you that the world doesn’t need saving—it needs a sense of humor. If you’re not laughing, you’re crying… and let’s face it, tears don’t pay the bills. So let’s start laughing a the lunacy of Leftism. Where do we start? I know. Leakers. And I’m not talking about Joe Biden’s need for depends, though rumors are that Old Joe can’t control his bladder anymore. But this latest leak is different…   Matt Gaetz Ethics Leak So, apparently, a hacker didn’t release the dirt on Matt Gaetz. Nope. Turns out, Congresswoman Susan Wild—top Democrat on the Ethics Committee—just casually hit 'send.' Shocking, right? Democrats leaking? That’s like finding out a Kardashian got another cosmetic procedure. Predictable! Wild deserves to be brought up on charges, but don’t hold your breath—it’s D.C., where the only thing that gets punished is honesty."   Mitch McConnell’s Fall "Mitch McConnell fell inside the Senate, aka 'Sunset Acres Senior Living'. Don’t worry, though; the Senate comes equipped with stairlifts and pudding cups for emergencies. At this rate, they’ll be holding votes in between bingo games. Mitch’s next bill should be titled, ‘Help, I’ve Fallen, and I Can’t Get Up Act.’"
Daniel Penny Acquittal So, Daniel Penny gets acquitted for defending himself on a New York subway, and the NAACP declares it’s open season on Black folks. Funny, because a Black man helped Penny subdue Jordan Neely, and a Black woman testified on Penny’s behalf. But hey, why let facts get in the way of a good ‘burn-the-city’ fundraiser? Meanwhile, Neely’s dad—who abandoned him decades ago—suddenly shows up to play the grieving father. If hypocrisy were a sport, the Left would’ve won the gold decades ago!" Cue the ‘Burn Everything Down Tour 2024.’"
  [SEGMENT 1-4] News of the Day 2   [X] SB – Daniel Penny [X] SB – AOC on Daniel Penny That tells us everything. If we don’t want violence on our subways…justice system is supposed to remedy this. He didn’t express remorse   Does he sound like some deranged white supremacists who was hunting Black people?   Liz Cheney’s Legal Warning "Liz Cheney warned that investigating the January 6th Committee will result in sanctions. Liz, honey, your career is already sanctioned—by the voters. Investigating you is like digging up a time capsule from the Bush era: full of bad decisions and forgotten relics. But sure, threaten lawyers. It’s not like anyone takes you seriously anymore—except maybe MSNBC."
WNBA and White Privilege "So, Caitlin Clark wins Time’s ‘Athlete of the Year’ and apologizes for being white. Girl, you play in the WNBA—there’s already a limited audience, and now you’re alienating the rest? She says the league was built on Black players. Sure, Caitlin, but you’re the one putting up numbers while most folks are Googling, ‘Is the WNBA still a thing?’ Next time, just take the award and smile. Nobody asked for the guilt monologue."  
Syria’s Dress Code "In Syria, Islamist rebels told a Christian woman she can’t leave the house without a male guardian and must wear a hijab. Look, if your revolutionary government starts sounding like a bad sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale, it’s time to reevaluate your life choices. Next, they’ll ban fun, freedom, and probably Wi-Fi—because tyranny loves a dead zone."
Elon Musk on Homelessness "This is The Kevin Jackson Radio Show, where Elon Musk tweets what we’re all thinking. Musk points out that ‘save the homeless’ NGOs profit by keeping people on the streets. Of course, they do These NGOs are the ambulance chasers of social justice: the more misery, the better their margins." "Elon Musk pointed out that ‘save the homeless’ NGOs make
