In the shell game that is continually played by the White House many people are focusing on Obama’s new Chief of Staff, Jack Lew, regarding his tenure as CEO of Citibank’s hedge fund of credit default swaps. The financial tool that devastated the housing equity market and created the subsequent economic collapse. But that’s the diversionary shell they want you to focus your attention on. Watch the other hand. There is a much more recent position in Lew’s resume’ that confirms our earlier, more looming, prediction.
Prior to his position as Budget Director (comical considering Obama has never had a budget) Jack Lew served as State Department Director under Hillary Clinton. It was Lew’s influence that shaped and positioned the failed Obama foreign policy toward the Middle East. Specifically toward Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya during their upheavel and shift to radical Sharia compliant Islam. Lew’s skillset as a radical leftist ideologue will be very useful in framing the narrative for the upcoming re-election strategy of attacking Iran. Putting Jack Lew into this position ahead of the election confirms the intention to attack Iran as part of Obama’s re-election strategy.
The marble intention is under the other shell no-one is paying attention to.
(Weekly Standard) President Obama’s first chief of staff Rahm Emanuel once sat on the board of troubled federal mortgage giant Freddie Mac. Bill Daley, the president’s chief of staff whose departure was announced today, was previously a top executive at financial firm J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. So of course there should be little surprise that Obama’s latest chief of staff, announced today by the president himself, also has deep ties to the financial industry himself.
From 2006-2008, Jack Lew was chief operating officer of Citibank’s alternative investments division. And it was his division that made billions of dollars betting “U.S. homeowners would not be able to make their mortgage payments,” as the Huffington Post reported.
The piece also reported: “Lew made millions at Citi, including a bonus of nearly $950,000 in 2009 just a few months after the bank received billions of dollars in a taxpayer rescue, according to disclosure forms filed with the federal government. The bank is still partly owned by taxpayers.” (read more)
