Ep. 2421 - Obama’s Back And He’s Taking Control
"According to Axios, There is a new influential foreign policy group to help potential 2028 presidential candidates and bring together national security specialists who could staff the next Democratic administration. It's called National Security Action. It was founded by Ben Rhodes, who was the chief foreign policy advisor... and Jake Sullivan... they've now picked a person named Maher Bitar, who has worked for Democrats and on Capitol Hill and in the White House, to lead the group going into the 2028 primary season."
Shapiro reveals that Obama administration veterans Ben Rhodes and Jake Sullivan have formed National Security Action to staff the next Democratic administration, appointing Maher Bitar to lead it. Shapiro claims Bitar was a leader of Students for Justice in Palestine and worked at the Hamas-linked UN Relief and Works Agency, arguing this represents Obama's radical foreign policy apparatus reactivating for 2028.
