That’s right, just like the Obamas, the dynamic duo from New York will be making sure Americans get indoctrinated by their leftist values. Don’t miss this.
Failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her daughter Chelsea are preparing to launch a Hollywood production company, according to a report out Thursday.
According to Bloomberg News, the Clintons have already met with studios regarding financing options for the company, which will focus on “stories by and about women.” The unnamed company is still in the early stages, two sources familiar with discussions told the business-centric news outlet.
Though Hillary Clinton isn’t terribly experienced with working in Hollywood, she did, as executive producer, join forces with mega film producer Steven Spielberg to bring author Elaine Weiss’ The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote to television. The book chronicles the fights waged by female activists to give women the right to vote under the 19th Amendment.
Reports of Clinton’s planned foray into Tinseltown comes nearly one year after former President Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama struck a mega deal to produce content for Netflix. The Obamas’ production company, Higher Ground Productions, announced in April that it is teaming with the video streaming giant to release a movie on Frederick Douglass, adapted from David W. Blight’s Pulitzer Prize-winning biography.
Speaking last year at a Las Vegas tech conference hosted by cybersecurity company Okta, Obama said he wanted to partner with Netflix to help “train the next generation of leaders.”
“We want to tell stories. This [Netflix deal] becomes a platform. We are interested in lifting people up and identifying people doing amazing work,” Obama said. “We did this in the White House.”
“I’m putting my money on the latter way,” the former president went on. “That’s what we hope to be a voice to, through Netflix and through my foundation, where we’re identifying and training the next generation of leaders here in the United States and around the world. So they can start sharing their stories and cooperating.”
Many Americans are leery about the Obamas, and now the Clintons, controlling programming that will push their radical leftist values.
The former first lady also announced the project, saying, “We think there’s something here for everyone — moms and dads, curious kids and anyone simply looking for an engaging, uplifting watch at the end of a busy day. We can’t wait to see these projects come to life — and the conversations they’ll generate.”
The Obamas are also developing a half-hour show for preschoolers titled “Listen to Your Vegetables & Eat Your Parents.” It will instruct kids about food. We know Michelle is really keen on this show.
However, who isn’t keen are many Americans who don’t see the Obamas’ motives as pure entertainment. More like indoctrination. Though Obama associates have said it is unlikely for the Netflix programs to be overtly partisan, there are still plenty of people on social media voicing their displeasure with the news — some threatening to cancel their Netflix subscription.
“I pay for Netflix and you can be sure I will not use my money to watch the Obamas. Even seeing him on that fleeting David Letterman trailer upsets me,” posted Twitter user “4aFreeUSA.”

“This project was announced by the former first family last year. Former President Obama said last May that he would use the Netflix deal to “train the next generation of leaders.” …..the day this BS actually happens….is the day I cancel,” tweeted “Gverb1219.”

“@Netflix Just NO. Obama already had his bite of the apple for eight years of dividing us. #NeverAgain,” tweeted “Unearthing America.”

As you can see, the deal was quickly met with conservative backlash from those who threatened to cancel their Netflix subscriptions. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings has also been critical of President Trump in the past and supported Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election.
And just like the Obamas got a ton of backlash, we bet Hillary and Chelsea will too. In the end, Americans just want to be entertained, not indoctrinated. We don’t see Hillary and Chelsea going far in Tinsel Town. No, they won’t be getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
