Did CIA create the Obamas?
We know Obama uses Fake ID, and grew up in Indonesia. But when we delve into his past, we get stuck. Is that because Obama is a typical CIA agent, installed to babysit us while we get robbed (via TPP) and disarmed (via Fake Shootings)?

El Chapo, that guy whose life is so undeniably similar to the plot of the greatest AMC series you’ve never seen, is still running from those not keen on his most recent prison escape.
