    It's in a bank in Iran, Obama sent it there and nobody asked any questions about it. It was a regular everyday presidential thing to send billions in cash to an enemy.

    The Obama's changed their minds on buying a home in Rancho Mirage.
    To many guns in the neighborhood and MAGA hats.
    Also Palm Springs was just to gay for Obama.
    Having to take a dump on a California green PC toilet may have been the final factor on not buying that home in Ranch Mirage.

    You would think he would not spend $14.85 million for a house that supposedly will be under water in ten years! It's about politics, not science or climatology!

    Where did Obama say that he agreed with the extreme 10 feet in 50 years estimate. He's concerned about global warming but as a reasonable and pragmatic guy, it looks like he's going with the more prevalent estimates and doing the math. Therefore, he knows that he can safely enjoy the beach house. No fraud there ... just a smear attempt that's lamer then the Fauxcahauntas shtick.

    Did the Obama’s ever say how much and how fast the oceans would rise?

    Difference is Trump doesn't push the AGW agenda and sea levels rising as he spends 15 million on beachfront property like Obama did.

    fake news, that was their money, we were holding on to it, they purchased weapons from us and we never delivered

    if we were gonna deal, made sense to give it back to them

    Trump ended the deal, so basically they got their money back and now do not have to honor the deal.... and now Trump doesn't have that bargaining chip anymore, not smart

    First you say it's not true then make excuses for it. If sea level rises anywhere near as fast as the cult predicts Obama will lose his beach in less than a decade and his property will be worthless as people see it is losing its most prime acreage in front of their eyes. Obviously Obama doesn't think that's going to happen or he is extremely stupid. Take your pick.

    Even the most conservative cult predictions means his beach will start going underwater immediately

    If my country just walked out of the Paris accord, there is no way I'm going to live in a tent to reduce my carbon footprint when my sacrifice won't change anything and our nation doesn't want to acknowledged the problem.

    If my local schools were crumbling, and my community voted down every bond that came up, I wouldn't give my money away to the school.

    We act together or not at all. I don't believe in objective morality and instead believe that we should act in our self-interest. However, making a sacrifice together is often better for all of us, but I'm not making a sacrifice for everyone if we aren't doing it together.

    Can you explain how affirmative action confers a magnum cum laude graduation status without actually being earned?

    Source? And please tell me you aren't misrepresenting Iran's frozen funds that we released back to them. Though that is probably what you are going for.

    So it's live in a tent or purchase beach front property for 15 million? That's your two choices? Try again.

    The same reasoning against the 15 million property also justifies ditching cars and houses all together. If you are against a 15 million property because of the carbon footprint, houses and cars are also very bad, just not as bad, and we need to ditch those too.

    Look, obviously climate change is a hoax, and this proves it.

    What we really have to worry about is the cancer that windmills cause.

    You would have to ask a person of color to explain that.

    How long do you expect they will live there? You have absolutely no grasp of the facts. Why do you have opinions but no knowledge?

    I have been unable to verify this story as everything seems to rely on a single TMZ piece and that is unreliable at best. I would appreciate any actual data on this.
