All Black males, Why is that?  Are they racists and are they spreading 
racial hate. Because a group doing RACIAL good would include all races 
and/or do their work out in the open, wouldn't it? Instead it's all male 
and all Black and it's with the HATE MONGER Louis Farrakhan in the 
Basement SCIF room of the Capital Building.  What is there about being 
Black or it being Racial is so secret that it needs to be done in a SCIF 
room, was it a NATIONAL SECRET BEING PROTECTED or was it a secret Cabal 
meeting that needed to be hidden?

Obama is a traitor to the U.S. Constitution, which he swore an oath to 
protect.

-That's Karma-

*IF YOU'RE READING THIS YOU ARE A SURVIVOR*
*The first rule of SURVIVAL CLUB* is we talk about it, we hate 
censorship. Never trust what Democrats or Marxists tell you. Make them 
prove it with actual verifiable facts and science. And if you didn't 
find the duplicitous lies in what the Marxist-Democrats told you then 
you didn't dig deep enough. The *Gruber* *Doctrine* is the 
Marxist-Democrat plan that says it's "to the Democrats advantage to have 
a lack of transparency and then lie about everything".
