The Photo That Never Saw The Light of Day: Obama With Farrakhan In 2005
By Esme Cribb | January 25, 2018 2:16 pm



A journalist announced last week that he will publish a photograph of then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama (D) and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan that he took in 2005 at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting, but did not make public because he believed it would have “made a difference” to Obama’s political future.

The photographer, Askia Muhammad, told the Trice Edney News Wire that he “gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy.”

“But after the nomination was secured and all the way up until the inauguration; then for eight years after he was President, it was kept under cover,” Muhammad said.

Who said it, Calypso Louie or Barry Hussein: "If we don't make earnest moves toward real solutions, then each day we move one day closer to revolution and anarchy in this country. This is the sad, and yet potentially joyous, state of America."

Yes the lower right one circled is Farakhans wife.  its at some kind of photo op, the other women are all "first black woman to ...."

This version tells who the other women are:

So Obama was a racist crypto-muslim poser. Who knew.

Sounds like Obama was colluding and covering up things to tamper with an election. Get Mueller on the case immediately!

I sense that in the months to come, we may see numerous more items like this.

That is, long-covered-up bits of truth that reveal to us who obama really was, as distinguished from how he was portrayed to be by the democrat-communists and their fawning toadies of the media...

I think you're right.

Exactly. Every sensible person already knew this. I seem to remember Hannity going on and on about Obama's connection to Chicago radicals including Farrakhan. Am I misremembering? To me, this is old news.


On a different note, I fully expected Hussein to 'come out' as a full blown Muslim(which is what he is) as soon as he was out of office. And he probably would do that except that it would hurt him in the future if he decides to run for something, and it would affect his ability to throw support to other Democrats.


Eventually, sooner or later, Obama is going to admit openly that he is and always has been a proud Muslim.

Why is this surprising? This is the same anti-American stooge who had Al (diamond merchants) Sharpton as a trusted advisor on race.  That's like having Joseph Mengele as your advisor on medical matters.

Photojournalist Askia Muhammad released a photo this week showing former President Barack Obama and the controversial Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan from Obama's years as a state senator -- and the photographer revealed Thursday that the Congressional Black Caucus had pressured him for more than a decade to keep it hidden.

Muhammad told the Trice Edney News Wire last week that he believed that the image “absolutely would have made a difference” in the 2008 presidential campaign had it been made public.

The image taken in 2005 at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting on Capitol Hill showed then-Senator Obama, a young Democrat from Illinois, smiling side-by-side with Farrakhan.

Muhammad also said that Obama had, at some point, people from the Nation of Islam working on his staff and in his offices.

“In fact he had people from the Nation of Islam working on his staff and in his office in the Chicago, his Senate staff. The members of the Nation of Islam helped him in his Senate campaign and on the South Side of Chicago.”

No doubt that's part of the radioactive info in his sealed academic records...

What's surprising here is that the outlet publishing this scoop, Talking Points Memo, is a left-leaning site.

We might find out that he was born in Mecca.

There is still so much disconnect with Obama and the public, they think of him as nice and successful,  the media is just downright evil.

[Bigun]

I told anyone who would listen EXACTLY what Obama was for 9 years on this site.

[Sanguine]

WE knew who 0bama was, but this story is about a member of the media deliberately hiding evidence that 0 consorted with known racists and the media member didn't publish what should have been a big story so that it wouldn't harm 0 politically.

Must have worked because I heard he was kicked out of the WH a while back.

Yeah! After having 8 full years to destroy everything in his path!
