    And just now, I was reading about another Little “magic wand” that our President is going to be waving, or has already waved, and the magic will be taking effect soon.
    Apparently , before Obama left office, he was able to schedule more free vacations for himself and extended family, all paid for by the American public, over the course of the next 20 years after he left office.
    When President Trump found out about these expense-paid trips, he cancelled the whole thing (which he has power to do), and also cancelled any SS protection for the Obama family if they leave the UNited States.
    Here is a copy of what I was just reading, and it was verified by Snopes, so you know it has to be true.......

    TRUMP JUST ENDED OBAMA’S VACATION

    Obama was going to stick us for 2.1 billion or so.
    Before Obama left office, he arranged with the State Department for a series of "official visits" to foreign countries spanning the next 20 years. Using discretionary funds from the Office of Presidential Visits and Vacations, Obama was planning to weasel what would have been another $2.1 billion in free vacations for him and up to 24 members of his family plus staff and even a dog sitter until the year 2036.
    He would have, that is, until Donald Trump put a stop to it. Trump, who is always looking for ways to save money, was presented with a ledger that contained all of the Obama travel plans and expenses. The ledger was found by one of the workers Trump hired from outside the typical White House staff. Trump immediately canceled the plans and recalled all Secret Service agents scheduled to protect the Obama’s anywhere outside of the United States.
    The Obama’s are also facing another new challenge at the hands of Trump. They're going to have to repay the government for all of those vacations that weren't official state business. The bill, after some small allowances, for days that were possibly work related, is for $214 million. Of the 692 days the Obama’s spent on vacation, almost none included any work at all. They ate, slept and golfed and Michelle was given shopping allowances from the Office of Discretionary Gifting Funds, which is supposed to be used to buy presents for visiting dignitaries.
    Feel free to share this. Many Americans will appreciate it!
    This was verified as true by the Soro’s-funded Snopes website.

    Did you verify it on Snopes.com or did the thing that you were reading say that it had been verified by Snopes.com? The reason I ask is that I am seeing the opposite. -- Did Trump Just End Obama's Vacation Scam? (Snopes)

    No, I actually was just posting the article, and it said that it had been verified by Snopes, so my comment was just joking about that part (that it had to be true). Actually, I would expect Snopes to deny this, true or not; so (to me) that they did deny it was true does not make it false either.
