Former President Barack Obama’s foundation set a goal last summer of raising $1.6 billion between 2021 and 2026 to pay for construction of his presidential center and an endowment to sustain it for years to come. The foundation’s total revenue for 2021 of $160 million, almost all of it from fundraising, only gets it 10% of the way there.
Have they checked all 57 states for donors? “Every corner”, all 57 states??

Just think what Pastor Brooks could do with that $160 million – how many lives he could impact.
But, no, instead donate to the Obama Temple, destroy part of Jackson Park, and kill park trees. That’s the Chicago Way!
Jackson Park belongs to the PEOPLE OF CHICAGO, not Mr. Obama.

It should be built on Martha’s Vineyard and Barack should donate his own land. We can let him live there in his house for 4 more years (during construction) and then offer him and his secret service retinue employment as tour guides. The sec. of transportation could inaugurate a few fast ferries from Provincetown and Long Island. And the Governor of Texas could supplement the work force with a weekly immigrant transfer. Lots of space for low-cost housing or tents on the beach. Elizabeth Warren could introduce the bill in the Senate!
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
What a waste of money on someone’s ego
