“It’s his job,” said Carmel Martin, a former Obama appointee who is now executive vice president of policy at the hate group,\u00a0Center for American Progress which is funded by George Soros. “I think it’s … not just appropriate but necessary for the current president to keep moving forward. President Obama is trying to leave the house in good working order.”<\/p>\n

Since the Democrats lost the election in November, President Barack Obama has strategically appointed 56 people to boards, commissions and offices in the hopes that they obstruct Donald Trumps’ policies for years to come. Obama\u00a0recently reduced the prison sentences of 79 federal inmates and made a mockery out of Presidential Medal of Freedom by giving the nation’s highest civilian honor to 21 of his personal friends\u00a0who Obama\u00a0said personally made an impact on his life.
