Well, well, well. Look who's finally waking up to reality. Former President Barack Obama — the architect of the very progressive policies destroying America's cities — now calls Los Angeles' homelessness crisis "morally and ethically speaking, an atrocity."
Speaking on YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen's podcast Monday, Obama expressed shock at conditions he helped create through eight years of federal overreach, social justice warrior policies, and the systematic dismantling of common-sense governance that actually works.
The audacity is breathtaking, folks. This is the same Obama who championed the "fundamental transformation" of America, pushed radical housing policies through HUD, and created the regulatory nightmare that made affordable housing impossible to build. Now he wants to play concerned elder statesman?
The Obama Blueprint for Urban Decay
Let's refresh Obama's apparently failing memory. His administration:
• Pushed "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing" rules that destabilized communities
• Expanded federal programs that incentivized dependency over work
• Supported the defund-the-police mentality now plaguing Democrat cities
• Appointed judges who go soft on crime and enable the chaos we see today
"It's morally — ethically speaking — it's an atrocity," Obama said, as if he's some innocent bystander watching from the sidelines.
Meanwhile, President Trump's second-term agenda is already delivering results. While Obama pontificates, the Trump-Vance administration is implementing real solutions: securing the border to stop the flow of illegal immigrants straining city resources, cutting federal red tape that prevents housing construction, and supporting law enforcement to clean up the streets.
Too Little, Too Late
Here's what really gets under Patriots' skin: Obama and his progressive allies created this mess through decades of failed social experiments, then act surprised when reality hits. California Democrats have had YEARS to fix Los Angeles, armed with Obama's full support and blessing.
Instead, they've made it worse with sanctuary city policies, permissive drug laws, and the kind of virtue-signaling governance that prioritizes feelings over results.
Sorry, Barry, but Patriots aren't buying your sudden concern. We remember who wrote the playbook that turned America's cities into third-world hellscapes. The question is: will Democrat voters finally wake up and demand real change, or keep falling for the same tired act?
