Ben Rhodes, like Valerie Jarrett was considered “Obama’s brain” during his eight year reign of terror. Now Rhodes who recently was hired by NBC to spew his anti-Trump, left wing propaganda has revealed that the Saudi monarch gave “only” David Rhodes suitcases full of jewels, with several hundreds of thousands of dollars. Doesn’t this sound like a bribe, which I thought was illegal to government officials? I guess this explains Obama bowing to the Saudi king in April that year. Rhodes wasn’t the only member of the Obama regime to receive suitcases full of jewels either. Fishy fishy.

Saudi Arabia gave White House aides jewellery worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in large suitcases, according to Ben Rhodes, former speechwriter and deputy national security adviser in the Obama administration.
In his memoir The World As It Is, published on Tuesday, Rhodes recounts a trip to Saudi Arabia in June 2009 soon after Barack Obama became president.
He says on arrival he and other US officials were taken to housing units in a compound owned by the monarchy in the desert.
“When I opened the door to my unit, I found a large suitcase,” Rhodes recounts.
“Inside were jewels.”
The trip to Saudi Arabia was the beginning of Obama’s first tour of the Middle East as president, and preceded his famous Cairo speech which he intended as a message to the Muslim world.
Rhodes says at first he thought the bagged treasure was a bribe, to influence him as he wrote Obama’s speech.
However, he soon learned he was not the only member of the delegation to be lavished with such expense.
