Obama Variant? Footage Show Maskless Guests Enjoying Former Prez Party

More footage has emerged from the (super spreader) event of the year: Barack Obama's 60th birthday party at Martha's Vineyard.

What was marketed as a gathering for "close personal friends and family" resulted in a crowd large enough to fill an EDM event ... though more masks would be found at EDM than at Obama's bash.

A video was released from Obama's event, filmed by someone we suspect is Erykah Badu in Rick James cosplay. Or the music artist named H.E.R. — which should actually be changed to T.H.E.Y. for its insensitivity.

The crafty cinematography caught Barack Obama and several attendees dancing in the set-up photos released by the Daily Mail.

OutKick's Clay Travis gave his thoughts on the video, detailing the hypocrisy of lead Democrats who harass American citizens and politicians who fight for a return to pre-pandemic normalcy.

Travis sums it up perfectly: it's all "total and complete bullish*t."

While reasonable Americans have refrained from condemning the former president because they would gladly participate in the festivities themselves, the hypocrisy and misleading rhetoric on display from those in Obama's camp continue to divide the nation. These people just can't follow the standards they set for everyone else.

CNN's Jim Acosta, who's only a policy away from marrying himself, criticized Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Republicans for their fight against continued COVID restrictions, suggesting that variants of the illness be named after them. It's all a tactic to blame them for any COVID death anywhere, even though Democratic governors like Andrew Cuomo of NY had a hand in rising COVID deaths.

Logic would lead CNN viewers — all 50 of them — to assign Barack his own variant name after seeing footage from the restriction-less party. Except CNN viewers don't use logic.
