Jessie Cardiff: There it is- the game ball. All my life i’ve been waiting for this, it’s it’s a pocket hanger.

The Twilight Zone: A Game of Pool 1961

Back in the days when I was first going to CPAC I found myself in line to get into an event with Michelle Malkin (who graciously filmed a “hello” video for my brother). In the line behind me was a gentleman who claimed to have had an affair with President Obama. He was quite emphatic & gave interesting details but with only a single source & no corroboration it wasn’t a priority to me.

This was before his re-election and his “change of heart” on gay marriage.

It was about that time or maybe a few years later that I first heard the “Michelle Obama is a man” rumors. I dismissed them out of hand thinking that I’m not a fan of going after a first lady & anyways it would be so easy to disprove that it was to be ignored. It was for the same reason that I dismissed the same lines about the French president’s wife, which is now the subject of a lawsuit.

As you might know this weekend at the fight at the White House, one of the fighters, after his victory bluntly and loudly said that Michelle Obama is a guy.

I found this fascinating for a couple of reasons.

  1. It was done at the most public forum avaialble
  2. There seems to be no movement or effort by anyone to make the guy retract the statement
  3. There is every possible incentive for the Democrats to urge the Obamas to sue because
    • There is now a very long precedent of defamation suits by leaders, Trump has made an art form out of it.
    • The Obama library is in debt already & a settlement would help in that reguard
    • That this happened at a Trump event should make Democrats chomping at the bit to sue.
    • When the current first lady was defamed by the press her threat of a lawsuit brought a quick retraction.
    • Such a suit would mean that every republican running for office could be asked “do you believe it?”
    • It gets der Oysterfurher in Maine off the front page.
    • It would be the most easy thing in the world to prove as false

That last one is a kicker, a photo of a pregnant Michelle Obama, a hospital picture with the newborn kids, easiest thing in the world to produce, cripes even a DNA sample taken today could do it.

Yet not only has it not produced a suit or even a threat of a suit but it’s already off the front pages assuming it ever made it on the front pages.

Moreover on X one of the biggest Gadfly’s to the left has publicly said this:

Now this was posted to X where the fellow has 4 MILLION followers. Even if you weren’t interested in suing the fighter you could bankrupt & destroy this fellow who has been one of the strongest voices on the right for quite a bit. It would be a one foot putt or as Jack Klugman’s character Jessie Cardiff in the Twilight Zone episode a game of pool put it: “A pocket hanger”! It’s a shot you can’t miss. One tiny DNA sample & it’s game over!

I ask myself a simple question: “Why would the Democrats not go all in on this, particularly when the latest polls show their generic lead in the midterms dropping?”

There is a logical answer to this question. That logical answer isn’t evidence but it does make one think.

If anyone from the left has a more logical answer I’m ready to hear it.

Closing thought: Even if the party or the Obamas aren’t interested in doing so, there are a ton of leftists on X and/or Bluesky who would absolutely LOVE to take down Catturd & claim his scalp. It will be interesting to see if anyone on X files a complaint against him or talks about doing so publicly.

It would be more interesting if such a person was approached by the Democrat party & told not to.
