The former senior advisor was even nicknamed 'Night Stalker' by her White House colleagues who believed she would spend her nights at the family's residence whispering into their ears and influencing policy. But Jarrett insists the threesome were simply chatting about their lives, drinking cocktails and eating open-faced BLT sandwiches prepared by White House chefs and watching movies. ...Obama's favorite movies had complicated plot lines that involved suffering and ended with everyone dying. 'I think the contrast to real life made him feel better', she writes.Jarrett admits that while being Senior Advisor to the President came with 'a host of responsibilities, it also came with some cool stuff'.That included trips to Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Germany and Normandy.In Saudi Arabia, they stayed at King Abdullah's ranch where she found a large gift box in her villa that contained a huge, green leather briefcase made from reptile skin and filled with emeralds and diamonds, a necklace, earrings, a ring, two watches, a bejeweled pen. ...
Valjar has always been Bammy's puppetmaster and always will be.
Daily MailWere those expensive gifts illegal? Is Obama a sociopath for enjoying movies where everyone dies? Does ValJar live with them now, I wonder?
