Domestic Terrorists Were Obama’s Special Guests at Center Opening“Bring the revolution home, kill your parents.”June 23, 2026 by Daniel Greenfield “It’s a front-row seat to history, no matter where you are,” the Obamas promised everyone coming to the opening of their grim towering $850 million Obama Presidential Center.
But much like Barack Obama’s famously cynical slogan, “we are the ones we have been waiting for”, some had actual front row seats to the Obama post-history while others were out back.
Most of the three thousand or so people who flocked to serve as human props for the official opening of the massively ugly addition to the Chicago skyline were forced to squat in camp chairs on the dying grass of what remained of a once beloved neighborhood park, burning in the hot sun, while their betters, politicians and celebrities, watched the spectacle up close.
Media reporting spent a good deal of time spotting celebrities in the VIP section. There was a sprightly Tom Hanks in sunglasses, there was Oprah, on her fortieth diet, and girlfriend Gayle King, and there was Stephen Colbert, both of whose tenures at CBS had crashed and burned, and there was LA Mayor Karen Bass who had to return home after Los Angeles burned down again which seems to happen every time the politician with a 31% approval rating leaves town.
And then again there were the people who actually mattered, who had made Obama and the era of radicalism he brought into national politics, which has only intensified since, happen.
