BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear Judge Virginia Kendall and the Dirksen Federal Staff,
Happy Federal Friday
This is for tomorrow, I think I understand my jaw pain issues
Today I am issuing a public request for transparency, accountability, and disclosure regarding matters associated with the Obama Presidential Library project and any related organizations, contractors, agreements, and financial obligations.
Over the past several months, I have received numerous reports, allegations, concerns, and observations from individuals in Chicago regarding what they describe as significant issues occurring behind the scenes. Because these claims continue to circulate, I believe the public deserves answers supported by documentation rather than speculation.
Accordingly, I am requesting that all appropriate agencies identify the proper jurisdiction responsible for reviewing, investigating, auditing, and documenting matters involving the Obama Presidential Library project, its funding, construction, management, contracts, and related operations.
Specifically, I am requesting a comprehensive financial review that includes:
• A complete accounting of all contractors, subcontractors, vendors, consultants, and affiliated organizations.
• The total amount paid to each contractor and vendor.
• Any outstanding balances, invoices, liens, disputed payments, claims, or financial obligations.
• Copies of receipts, invoices, payment records, and supporting documentation where legally available.
• A detailed report identifying which contractors have been fully compensated and which contractors remain unpaid.
• A review of all litigation, claims, disputes, settlements, or pending actions related to the project.
For any claims presently being asserted by any party, I request disclosure of the factual basis, supporting evidence, status, and outcome of those claims as permitted by law.
I am also requesting disclosure of all organizations associated with the project, including:
• Organization name.
• Organizational role.
• Scope of responsibility.
• Contract value.
• Compensation received.
• Current status.
Additionally, I request a complete review of all land acquisition records, lease agreements, development agreements, easements, permits, approvals, and related documentation associated with the project.
Public reporting has referenced land-use agreements and lease arrangements associated with the project. I request that all relevant documents be produced for public review so that citizens may understand the terms, obligations, responsibilities, and long-term impacts of those agreements.
I further request disclosure, to the extent permitted by law, regarding project plans, construction specifications, infrastructure systems, maintenance obligations, and asset inventories sufficient to allow taxpayers and interested stakeholders to understand the nature and value of project assets.
Should there be any future public expenditure, default, financial restructuring, insolvency proceeding, foreclosure action, asset transfer, or recovery action involving project-related assets, the public should have access to a complete inventory identifying those assets and their estimated value.
Finally, if any governmental agency has conducted investigations, reviews, audits, inspections, monitoring activities, compliance reviews, or oversight actions related to the project, I request disclosure of those findings as permitted under applicable law.
This statement shall serve as a public request for transparency and accountability. The purpose of this request is not to accuse any individual or organization of wrongdoing, but rather to seek verified facts, documentation, and public records so that questions may be answered through evidence rather than rumor.
The American people deserve transparency.
The taxpayers deserve accountability.
The historical record deserves accuracy.
