(Aug. 6, 2025) — At approximately 8:34 p.m. EDT, “Jesse Watters Primetime” host Jesse Watters declared Michelle Obama “did a birth certificate dive” while reviewing her latest podcast, “IMO” on the “Higher Ground” channel, in which she described how she allegedly learned about and became acquainted with her husband, Barack Hussein Obama.
As Watters spoke the words, they appeared in the chyron at the bottom of the screen which this writer was unable to capture in time.
The next chyron read, “Michelle didn’t buy Barack’s background.”
Whether intended to convey irony, unexplained inconsistencies prompted millions of Americans to doubt Barack Obama’s public life narrative which states he was born in Hawaii, went to live in Indonesia with his mother when he was six, and returned to Hawaii at age ten to reside with his maternal grandmother.
For more than a year, it has been rumored Michelle and Barack are “living separate lives.” An article published after the podcast aired Wednesday reports the two are “quietly working through the details of what sources describe as a private split.”
Michelle Obama described to her brother/co-host how she was introduced to Barack after he joined the Chicago law firm where she was employed, with her assignment to provide orientation and support to the newcomer. She said she was told Barack was from Hawaii and remarked how unusual it was for a “black” man to have been raised there.
At first, she said, she and Barack became “friends,” then “good friends,” until he “asked her out.” Her reaction, she said, was that it could not happen, but, she claimed, his insistence paid off and they enjoyed a first date.
In her July 16 podcast, Michelle and Barack appeared to deny the rumors they intend to divorce.
The Obama “birth certificate” instantly became a taboo subject after a “long-form” image purported to represent his original birth record was posted by the White House on the morning of April 27, 2011 but immediately thereafter denounced by a number of analysts as a poor forgery.
A five-year criminal investigation conducted by the Maricopa County, AZ Cold Case Posse authorized by then-Sheriff Joseph Arpaio declared the image a “computer-generated forgery” created “with the intent to deceive.” At a final presser in December 2016, lead investigator Mike Zullo revealed the findings of two forensic analysts, working independently and from different disciplines, reached similar conclusions.
According to lead investigator Mike Zullo in 2018, Barack Obama “was not in the United States at five; he was in Indonesia.”
While Fox News and virtually all other “mainstream” media outlets failed to report on the posse’s efforts and final determination about the birth certificate forgery, Watters and “The Five” co-host Greg Gutfeld have occasionally brought up the issue, though largely via tongue-in-cheek commentary.
I first entered the Obama ‘birther’ fray in 2008, writing to Phil Berg suggesting Obama WAS a U.S. citizen at birth due to 8 USC 1409’s ‘out of wedlock’ provision, conferring the mother’s U.S. citizenship if the child was born on foreign soil to a foreign father.
This enraged Berg, and also Orly Taitz who recently miscited INA law last week on the John B. Wells’ ‘Caravan to Midnight’ show.
I also worked with Dr. Jerome Corsi on the ‘Where’s the Birth Certificate’ book, who then referred me to Det. Mike Zullo.
While ‘deep diving’ into nationality law is important, the arguments and minutia are all moot because the mere fact Obama had a non-citizen father disqualified him from the presidency. Citizenship by ‘natural’ inheritance, by blood, required a U.S. citizen father. This was the law from when Article II was framed until Wong Kim Ark created ‘birthright citizenship’ in 1898. The 14th Amendment was the only exception, required because freed slaves were stateless, born to stateless fathers (and some Native Americans). That’s 108-years the law required a U.S. citizen father for citizenship, unchanged until 1898.
Wong Kim Ark and the 14th Amendment created new ‘citizenships at birth,’ but did NOT revise or amend Article II’s ‘natural born citizen’ requirement.
MICHELLE knows what Arpaiao knows and that Donald knows, and is counting her blessings that she can finalize her divorce and protect her assets before the Truth hits the fan! Good work, Sharon!
Why isn’t Jesse Watters, or anyone, talking about Obama’s use of a stolen Connecticut Social Security number?
Orders from higher up his chain of command.
Remember FOX NEWS’ Bill “No Spin” “Lookin’ Out For The Folks” O’Reilly? He stated that he had found THE PROOF that Obama was born in the United States. Furthermore, he said that he was too busy to look into the matter any longer. According to O’Reilly, the Honolulu newspapers published an announcement of Obama’s Hawaiian birth. Some “proof!”
A top elections official for the state of Hawaii, Timothy Adams, stated that NO RECORD OF OBAMA’s BIRTH EXISTED IN HAWAII AT THE TIME OF THE 2008 GENERAL ELECTION. If I am not mistaken, Mr Adams signed a sworn affidavit.
When Obama registered at Occidental College in Los Angeles after entering the United States, he did so under the name Barry Soetoro and citizenship Indonesian.
IT WAS AT THAT TIME THAT HE BEGAN TO BE GROOMED BY THE CIA AND PREPPED TO RUN EVENTUALLY FOR THE U.S. PRESIDENCY (AND ALSO FOR A LEADER OF THE SO-CALLED NEW WORLD ORDER). He stated that it would be his intention to TRANSFORM America (evidently regardless of what anybody else, such as We The People, thought about it).
In my humble layman’s opinion, the actions of Obama aka Soetoro and our country’s own Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) were nothing less than TREASON.
I doubt that the highest of all high crimes (treason) is “shortened” by any statute of limitations.
Oh, well, our criminal justice system, especially when dealing with political figures in government (presidents especially), is pathetically lacking in TRUTH, TRANSPARENCY, AND ACCOUNTABILITY. For them, practically anything goes. The proverbial “buck” apparently stops short of where we always have been led to believe.
He was registered as Barack Obama. His name and address were in the phone book. I believe he did take the four or five classes he took using a scholarship for foreign students.
My apologies, Susan. I was relying on my memory (fading!) of the writings/records of others from years ago. Nevertheless, I think that what I said about Obama aka Soetoro’s enrollment at Occidental was “in the ballpark.” To continue with my somewhat silly baseball analogy, I hope there was “no harm, no foul.” Tom Arnold.
I don’t believe one word from Big Mike. These people are carefully coached and rehearsed to make their lies seem SOOOO plausible. Big Mike will never be put under pressure to reveal the truth.
