Los Angeles Lakers’ forward LeBron James may be an uneducated, mush-mouthed inarticulate dummy who could not spell C-A-T if you spotted him the first two letters but he is being propped up and fed his lines by the devil incarnate.
The pervasive and sinister influence of Barack Obama continues to contribute to the radicalization of the left and the deteriorating race relations that he has promoted.
The former president largely stays hidden in the shadows but his presence can be seen in burning cities, looted businesses, in hate-crazed mobs, and in the increasingly political arena of professional sports.
Now it appears that Mr. Obama has been involved with the NBA’s decision to boycott their own games to protest the shooting of a violent criminal by police in Kenosha after he fought with them.
Mostly, Obama has the ear of China’s mouthpiece and self-styled racial philosopher-king LeBron Janes who was reportedly ready to call off the entire NBA playoffs so he could hit the campaign trail to stump for the Harris-Biden dream team.
According to a report by sports website The Athletic, Obama spoke with King James and other players after they called off their games in the Orlando bubble on Wednesday out of frustration that their silly social justice campaign didn’t prevent Jacob Blake from being shot while resisting arrest.
LeBron James led small group of players who sought advice of Barack Obama on Wednesday, and the former President offered them guidance to continue playing with plan of action.

Via Fox News, “Obama advised LeBron James, other NBA players to resume season: Report”:
Former President Barack Obama advised a group of NBA players led by Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James to return to the court this week after a brief boycott to protest the shooting of Jacob Blake, according to a report Friday.
James reached out to Obama shortly after a tense Wednesday night meeting in which the Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers informally voted to boycott the rest of the NBA playoffs, The Athletic reported. On the phone call, Obama advised James and his fellow players to detail the demands they had in order to resume play.
The players broached the possibility of forming a committee for player action with Obama’s involvement, according to the report. Other participants on the call included NBA All-Star Chris Paul, who serves as president of the National Basketball Players Association.
The status of the NBA’s season restart inside the bubble at Wat Disney World resort in Orlando was in doubt earlier this week after the Milwaukee Bucks decided not to take the court for their game against the Orlando Magic. The NBA postponed playoff games scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday and initiated meetings with players and owners to determine the league’s next steps.
Following their consultation with the race-baiter in chief, James and the NBA players demanded that their empty arenas be turned into polling places as a condition of their return.

Via Politico, “NBA, players association agree to turn arenas into polling places”:
The National Basketball Association will work with local election officials to turn its arenas into polling places for November’s presidential election, the league and its players’ union announced Friday.
As part of an agreement with National Basketball Players Association union, the NBA will convert franchise-owned-and-operated arenas into voting facilities targeted at communities particularly vulnerable to the coronavirus pandemic, the league and union said in a joint statement. If the deadline for setting up a polling place in a particular state has passed, the league will use its local arena for other civic engagement purposes.
The agreement comes after players went on strike earlier this week to protest the shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man, by a white police officer in Kenosha, Wis., on Sunday. The strike started Wednesday when the Milwaukee Bucks sat out their playoff game with the Orlando Magic, a stance matched over the course of this week by all of the teams remaining in the NBA playoffs and the entire Women’s National Basketball Association, as well as multiple Major League Baseball and National Hockey League teams.
The heads of the NBA and NBPA said in their joint statement Friday that players, coaches and team governors met Thursday to discuss ways to advance civic engagement and social justice. The parties agreed to resume playoff games on Saturday if the league established a social justice commission, opened its arenas for voting locations and promoted civic engagement through advertising space.
The NBA is now not even bothering with the pretense that it isn’t an unofficial arm of the Democratic party – it also bears mentioning that the NBA was the first league to halt play due to the coronavirus setting off a chain reaction that resulted in the economically ruinous lockdowns and loss of tens of millions of jobs.
Like Satan himself, Obama is noplace and everyplace at the same time.
