Bureaucrats hide true price of Obama Presidential Center as taxpayers hit with infrastructure bill

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
FIRST ON FOX: Former President Barack Obama once declared that his presidential center would be a «gift» to Chicago, but taxpayers are on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars in hidden costs related to the beleaguered project.
A Fox News Digital investigation shows taxpayers are now stuck footing the bill for surging public infrastructure costs required to support the project — and no government agency can provide an accounting of the total public cost, despite months of queries and FOIA requests.
«Illinois Republicans saw this coming a mile away. Now, right on cue, Illinois Democrats are leaving taxpayers high and dry and putting them on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars to support the ugliest building in Chicago,» Illinois GOP Chair Kathy Salvi told Fox News Digital. «Illinois’ culture of corruption is humming along with pay-to-play deals to their allies and friends while lying to Illinois voters.»
When the project was approved in 2018, Obama pledged to privately fund construction of the expansive 19.3-acre campus in historic Jackson Park through donations to the Obama Foundation – a commitment that remains in place as the center’s construction continues to be privately financed.
But the extensive infrastructure required to make the campus operationally viable — including redesigned roads, stormwater systems, and relocated utilities — is publicly financed, and without those changes, the center could not function.
At the time, projections placed public infrastructure costs at roughly $350 million, split between the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago.

Eight years later, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) told Fox News Digital that approximately $229 million in infrastructure spending was tied to the site, up from its earlier estimate of roughly $174 million.
The $229 million figure reflects state-managed spending, which may include federal transportation funds routed through IDOT.
Meanwhile, Chicago officials have failed to produce a reconciled total showing how much city taxpayers have committed or how current spending compares to the roughly $175 million discussed when the project was approved.
A paper trail without a total
Fox News Digital submitted records requests and press inquiries to every agency involved in the infrastructure work, including the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), Chicago’s Department of Transportation (CDOT), the Office of Budget and Management (OBM), the Mayor’s Office and Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s administration.
Not a single office provided a unified, up-to-date accounting of total public infrastructure spending tied to the project. The investigation involved months of FOIA requests, partial disclosures and repeated follow-ups.
No single agency appears to oversee the full scope of the infrastructure work, and neither the state nor the city has assembled a reconciled accounting — a fragmentation that has made the overall public cost difficult to determine.
Instead, agencies provided partial figures, declined to clarify whether city and state totals overlap or insisted that no consolidated total exists.
The Illinois Attorney General’s Public Access Counselor (PAC) is reviewing whether multiple agencies complied with state transparency laws following Fox News Digital FOIA requests.

Construction costs soar
The center sits on 19 acres of historic public parkland carved out in a controversial transfer for just $10 under a 99-year agreement, making the question of public infrastructure spending particularly sensitive. Legal challenges to the land transfer, including lawsuits arguing the arrangement was not in the public interest, were ultimately dismissed, although the merits of the arguments were not adjudicated on.
The center — though commonly referred to as a presidential «library» — will not function as a traditional facility operated by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), and former President Obama’s official records will be maintained by NARA at a federal site in Maryland.
While the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago is expected to provide digital access to archival materials, it will not serve as a federally operated records repository.
Instead, the Chicago complex will be operated privately, without rent payments, by the Obama Foundation, the former president’s nonprofit organization, which oversees leadership programs and civic initiatives aligned with his values and policy priorities.
Construction costs for the facility itself have ballooned from early estimates of roughly $330 million to at least $850 million, according to the foundation’s 2024 tax filings, although these expenses are being borne by private donors.
Meanwhile, a $470 million reserve fund — known as an endowment — that the foundation promised to fill to protect taxpayers should the project go belly-up, has received only $1 million in deposits, Fox News Digital previously reported.

Roads removed, routes rebuilt
Taxpayers often fund routine improvements near major civic projects — such as turn lanes, utility hookups or upgraded traffic signals — but the scale of the work surrounding the Obama Presidential Center is far more extensive.
By comparison, other modern presidential libraries required only limited public infrastructure upgrades and did not involve the removal of a major roadway or the wholesale redesign of a historic park’s traffic pattern.
Much of the publicly financed work reshaped the roads and utilities that once ran through Jackson Park.
Cornell Drive — a four-lane roadway that bordered the center’s east side by the park’s lagoon — was permanently removed under the center’s site plan and enveloped by the campus. Traffic that once ran alongside the lagoon has been rerouted farther west, reducing the number of public roads directly adjacent to the complex and creating a more unified campus footprint around the center.
Crews also tore down trees, relocated water mains, sewer lines, and electrical infrastructure and installed new drainage systems tied to the facility’s structural needs as part of the public infrastructure project.
City and state officials say the changes were necessary to manage traffic and visitor demand. Critics argued the redesign altered long-standing park infrastructure to accommodate the foundation’s preferred layout.
What’s clear is that without those road closures, reroutes and utility relocations, the project would not function as designed.
The Obama Foundation, which is funding the center’s construction, defended the project in a statement to Fox News Digital.
«The Obama Foundation is investing $850 million in private funding to build the Obama Presidential Center and give back to the community that made the Obamas’ story possible,» said Emily Bittner, a spokesperson for the foundation.
«After decades of underinvestment on the South Side of Chicago, the OPC is catalyzing investment, from both public and private sources, to build economic opportunity for residents through jobs, housing, and public spaces and amenities.»

The number no one will state
IDOT, which controls the state’s funding for the corridor and signs off on major transportation contracts tied to the project, acknowledged approximately $229 million in state-managed infrastructure spending but did not produce a consolidated accounting reconciling that total across all project phases.
«With all the main parts of this aspect of the overall project awarded, to date the state via IDOT has contributed approximately $229 million,» an IDOT spokesperson told Fox News Digital in July in its latest release. «Approximate breakdown of these funds: $19 million in preliminary engineering; $24 million for construction engineering and $186 million for construction activities.»
The spokesperson said that the initial $174 million figure was from a «2017 was a preliminary cost estimate.»
CDOT, which carried out the roadway closures, traffic rerouting and utility relocation work inside Jackson Park, acknowledged Fox News Digital’s Oct. 7, 2025, FOIA request and took a statutory extension but never issued a final determination or produced the requested records. The department also did not provide a unified city total or clarify how Chicago’s capital allocations overlap with the state’s spending.
OBM, which oversees the city’s capital allocations, did not say whether the city’s $175 million estimate remains current and directed Fox News Digital to the Capital Improvement Plan. Chicago’s most recent 2024–2028 Capital Improvement Plan — the city’s multi-year infrastructure budget — lists more than $206 million allocated to roadway and utility work surrounding the project. However, much of that funding is labeled «state,» and neither state nor city officials could clarify how those allocations overlap with IDOT’s reported total.
In a FOIA response, OBM said it «does not have responsive records» showing any cost overruns, reallocations or a breakdown of spending across major components of the Obama Center infrastructure work.
The agency also could not explain how Chicago’s $206 million budget line relates to IDOT’s $229 million figure or how much of the city’s amount is actually paid by Chicago rather than the state.

Pritzker’s office gave conflicting responses and ultimately produced no records showing the state’s total infrastructure spending.
Meanwhile, Mayor Brandon Johnson’s office did not respond to repeated requests for the city’s total infrastructure spending tied to the project or for how much more Chicago expects to commit.
Without updated reconciliations from both levels of government, taxpayers still have no clear accounting of the financial obligations associated with the center.
What is clear is that Obama’s «gift» to Chicago comes with a hefty public price tag that has grown more complex — and without updated cost projections, the true total cost remains unknown.

Se extiende la alerta por inundaciones repentinas en Hawái por la amenaza de la presa Wahiawa

El archipiélago de Hawái afronta una emergencia por inundaciones en la isla de Oahu, con miles de evacuados y amenaza de colapso en el embalse Wahiawa, tras lluvias extremas que se prolongaron desde el viernes 20 de marzo. La situación afecta a residentes de áreas como Haleiwa y Waialua, donde el sistema de emergencia estatal desplegó operativos de rescate y emitió órdenes de evacuación preventiva, según informó la agencia de noticias Reuters.
La Oficina de Manejo de Emergencias de Honolulu (OEM) informó sobre rescates masivos, con más de 230 personas puestas a salvo por equipos del cuerpo de bomberos, la Guardia Nacional y personal militar. El Servicio Meteorológico Nacional de EE.UU. (NWS) mantiene el aviso de precipitaciones intensas y advierte de la posibilidad de desbordes y deslizamientos en varias islas. El gobernador Josh Green y el director Rick Blangiardi confirmaron el despliegue de recursos estatales y federales, y subrayaron que no se han registrado víctimas fatales ni desaparecidos hasta el momento.
El embalse Wahiawa, construido hace más de un siglo, ha sido clasificado como de “alto riesgo” por el U.S. Army Corps of Engineers y el Departamento de Tierras y Recursos Naturales de Hawái (DLNR), debido a fallas estructurales y falta de adecuación a normas modernas de seguridad. Investigaciones de la publicación periodística Civil Beat destacan que el embalse enfrenta sanciones estatales previas por incumplimientos en el mantenimiento y la gestión de riesgos.
Las precipitaciones registradas desde el viernes 20 de marzo superaron los niveles habituales en la isla de Oahu, con acumulados de hasta 180 milímetros (7 pulgadas), de acuerdo con el NWS. El embalse Wahiawa alcanzó una altura de agua de 25,9 metros (85 pies), cerca del límite estructural de 26,8 metros (88 pies), generando el desborde del aliviadero y la evacuación forzada de comunidades aguas abajo. El NWS advirtió sobre la posibilidad de “inundaciones catastróficas” y potencial colapso del embalse, lo que implicó la activación de protocolos de emergencia coordinados por la OEM y la Guardia Nacional.
La alarma incluyó a más de 4.000 residentes de zonas como Waialua y Haleiwa, quienes debieron abandonar sus viviendas y trasladarse a refugios temporales habilitados por la Cruz Roja Estadounidense y el gobierno local. El director Rick Blangiardi afirmó en rueda de prensa: “El riesgo para la vida es real, por lo que pedimos a la población que siga las indicaciones oficiales y no intente regresar hasta recibir autorización”, según declaraciones recogidas por la agencia de noticias Reuters.
La Oficina de Manejo de Emergencias de Honolulu informó destrucción en infraestructuras clave de Oahu, con carreteras inundadas, cortes de electricidad, daños en escuelas y la evacuación de un hospital en Maui por acumulación de agua. Las estimaciones iniciales de daños económicos superan los USD 1.000 millones, según recopilación de datos de la publicación periodística Civil Beat. El gobernador Josh Green señaló que la prioridad es la protección de la vida humana y la restauración de servicios esenciales.
El NWS advirtió que las lluvias persistentes podrían agravar el panorama durante el fin de semana, con expectativas de nuevas precipitaciones de hasta 180 milímetros y ráfagas de viento de hasta 72 km/h. El terreno saturado incrementa el riesgo de deslizamientos y caída de árboles, así como interrupción de servicios básicos en los días siguientes.

El embalse Wahiawa es una infraestructura centenaria bajo propiedad de Dole Food Company y Sustainable Hawaiʻi Inc.. Tanto el DLNR como el U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lo han clasificado como “de alto riesgo” por deficiencias estructurales y falta de adecuación a estándares modernos. En inspecciones recientes se detectaron problemas en la integridad de la presa y la carencia de planes de emergencia actualizados.
La transferencia de titularidad y la gestión del embalse han estado marcadas por resoluciones administrativas; el DLNR impuso sanciones por incumplimientos de mantenimiento y gestión de riesgos. Según la OEM en un comunicado recogido por la agencia de noticias Reuters: “El embalse no ha colapsado, pero sigue en riesgo ante la probabilidad de nuevas lluvias”. El monitoreo de los niveles de agua y la evaluación estructural del embalse continúan como tarea prioritaria para las autoridades estatales.
Los equipos de emergencia de Oahu realizaron más de 230 rescates, con operaciones que emplearon botes, helicópteros y vehículos especializados para acceder a zonas aisladas, según datos oficiales de la OEM citados por la agencia de noticias Reuters. El director Rick Blangiardi declaró a medios locales que “decenas, si no tal vez cientos de viviendas, han sido afectadas por la crecida”.
La Guardia Nacional desplegó unidades para apoyar las labores de evacuación y fortalecer los diques y estructuras críticas alrededor del embalse Wahiawa. Las fuerzas armadas, junto a la OEM y la Cruz Roja Estadounidense, mantienen habilitados refugios y centros de atención temporal para quienes debieron abandonar sus hogares.
Acciones clave de las autoridades:
- Monitoreo permanente de los niveles de agua.
- Evacuación preventiva en comunidades vulnerables.
- Refuerzo y protección de diques y estructuras críticas.
- Suspensión de actividades en dependencias públicas no esenciales.
La OEM y el NWS recomiendan evitar desplazamientos innecesarios, consultar canales oficiales y seguir todas las instrucciones de evacuación. La Cruz Roja Estadounidense habilitó líneas de asistencia y albergues temporales para los evacuados. El gobernador Josh Green destacó la importancia de priorizar la seguridad y advirtió que “la situación puede extenderse por varios días”, según cita de la agencia de noticias Reuters.
El NWS mantiene la advertencia de inundaciones para todas las islas principales, enfatizando la probabilidad de nuevas crecidas y deslizamientos, en especial en áreas de suelos saturados o con mal drenaje. Las autoridades reiteran que no se debe regresar a las zonas evacuadas hasta que se confirme oficialmente la seguridad.

El cierre de carreteras, la interrupción de servicios básicos y la evacuación de miles de personas han alterado la vida diaria en Oahu y otras islas. Se han cancelado y retrasado transportes públicos y vuelos, mientras que el acceso a servicios médicos y educativos se ha visto comprometido por la emergencia. El hospital de Maui que fue evacuado permanece bajo vigilancia, según datos de la OEM.
Las familias, trabajadores y empresas enfrentan la incertidumbre debido a la continuidad de las precipitaciones y los daños materiales. Autoridades estatales y federales coordinan esfuerzos para restablecer los servicios, aunque la valoración total de los daños podría demorar varios días, de acuerdo con Civil Beat.
La recuperación tras las inundaciones dependerá del comportamiento del clima y de la contención del peligro en el embalse Wahiawa. Las autoridades estatales prevén mantener los operativos de emergencia y las restricciones hasta descartar el riesgo de colapso de la presa o nuevos desbordes. El DLNR y el U.S. Army Corps of Engineers están abocados a la evaluación de la infraestructura y a la implementación de medidas correctivas.
El efecto inmediato se refleja en miles de personas desplazadas, viviendas dañadas y pérdida de bienes materiales. La reanudación de actividades normales en Oahu y otras islas quedará supeditada a la restauración de servicios y la estabilización de la infraestructura hídrica.

Warren warned Hegseth’s tattoo made him a potential ‘threat’ — now she backs candidate with Nazi-linked ink

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., sidestepped Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner’s Nazi-linked tattoo in her glowing endorsement Thursday, despite previously expressing alarm over Department of War Secretary Pete Hegseth’s Christian tattoos.
Warren, one of the Senate’s most liberal members who is seeking to recruit progressive candidates, endorsed Platner’s campaign in a video posted to social media Wednesday, calling him «the real deal.»
«Graham Platner has the grit to go against the grain and to fight for what is right,» Warren said. «And the people in Maine are fired up and excited for change.»
The 41-year-old oyster farmer has been widely criticized for having a chest tattoo of a skull and crossbones resembling a symbol associated with the SS. Platner has since had the tattoo removed and pleaded ignorance, saying he was unaware of the symbol’s meaning.

DEM SENATE CANDIDATE MOCKED AFTER CLAIM ABOUT DISMANTLING ICE GOES VIRAL: ‘UNMASK THESE THUGS’
When asked about Platner’s host of controversies, Warren largely brushed it off.
«Look, he has apologized for that, and he’s out there talking to the people of Maine every single day,» Warren told Huffpost on Thursday.
Warren’s remarks sharply contrasted with her scrutiny of Hegseth for his Christian tattoos. In the lead-up to Hegseth’s confirmation hearing in early 2025, Warren implied that Hegseth could be a traitor for having certain Christian symbols on his body.
The Massachusetts Democrat specifically referenced a Reuters report detailing Hegseth being removed from National Guard duty during former President Joe Biden’s inauguration by a supervisor, who appears to have made a dubious assumption that he could be an «insider threat» over his Christian tattoos.
Hegseth had volunteered for inauguration security as a member of the D.C. National Guard and had been employed by Fox News at the time. A senior National Guard member expressed concern over his tattoos of the Jerusalem Cross and the Latin phrase «Deus Vult,» which translates to «God wills it.»
Four years later, Warren used the incident to question Hegseth’s loyalty to the United States, despite his completing multiple overseas deployments and earning two Bronze Stars.
«We cannot have a Defense Secretary whose fellow servicemembers feel concerned enough about to report as a potential insider threat,» Warren wrote in a 33-page letter to Hegseth.
Fox News Digital reached out to Warren’s office for comment.

ANTI-ICE LAW SET TO TAKE EFFECT IN MAINE AS GOVERNOR FACES INCREASED CRITICISM FOR ALLOWING IT AMID SENATE RUN
Hegseth defended his tattoos in an exchange with Sen. Kristen Gillibrand during his confirmation hearing. Gillibrand, who chairs Senate Democrats’ campaign arm, is notably backing Gov. Janet Mills, Platner’s opponent in the Senate primary.
Both Mills and Platner are vying for the Democratic nomination to unseat longtime Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine.
The tattoo is spotlighted in a blistering new attack ad against Platner launched by Mills’ campaign.
The ad, which the Mills campaign says it’s spending six figures to run statewide, closes with video of Platner shirtless as the narrator in the spot says, «The closer you look, the worse it gets.»
Controversial comments Platner made over a decade ago on Reddit about rape are also included in the ad.
The Mills campaign’s spot highlights Platner’s comments while an actor — in a voice that resembles the candidate — reads the comment aloud. Among the comments is one from 2013, which Platner later deleted, saying people concerned about rape should not «get so f—ed up they wind up having sex with someone they don’t mean to.»
Four women in the Mills ad responded to the comments, calling them, «a horrible thing to say,» «disgusting» and «disqualifying.»
Platner apologized for his controversial Reddit posts after they made headlines last fall soon after he launched his Senate campaign.
«For those of you who have read these things and been offended, have read these things and seen someone that you don’t recognize, I am deeply sorry,» he said in a video that went viral.

The Mills ad was launched as Platner appeared to be gaining momentum while drawing large crowds at campaign events across the state. According to recent polls, Platner holds a large lead over Mills with less than three months until Maine’s primary.
Democrats view Collins as vulnerable as she seeks a sixth Senate term in the left-leaning New England state. The race is considered a must-win contest for Democrats as they try to claw back the chamber’s majority from the GOP in this year’s midterms.

Técnicos de tenis dominicanos se preparan para los Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe 2026

La República Dominicana acelera su preparación de cara a los XXV Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe, que se celebrarán en Santo Domingo entre el 24 de julio y el 8 de agosto de 2026. En este contexto, el Comité Organizador y la Federación Dominicana de Tenis (Fedotenis) iniciaron la capacitación de alrededor de setenta técnicos, quienes, durante tres días, reciben formación especializada en el arbitraje de tenis con el objetivo de garantizar un nivel técnico adecuado para el evento regional.
Las jornadas, que se desarrollan en el Pabellón de la Fama del Deporte Dominicano, están a cargo del juez de silla salvadoreño Diego Navidad. El taller aborda las reglas principales del tenis, así como los procedimientos y deberes del arbitraje que exige la Federación Internacional de Tenis (ITF). De acuerdo con una publicación del medio Al momento, Navidad enfatizó en la importancia del proceso formativo, señalando que para los Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe se requieren al menos 65 jueces de línea altamente calificados. “Con este taller estamos garantizando la calidad técnica para los técnicos dominicanos”, expresó el facilitador.
El curso, que inició el pasado 19 de marzo, tiene como finalidad fortalecer las competencias de los jueces de silla y de línea, quienes desempeñarán un papel clave durante la justa deportiva. En la apertura participaron Nelson Ramírez, encargado de desarrollo y capacitación del Comité Organizador, y Persio Maldonado, presidente de Fedotenis. Asistieron también Sergio Tobal, vicepresidente de la federación; Alexis Alcántara, tesorero y responsable de los cursos de arbitraje; Tony Mesa, director de gerencia deportiva de los Juegos, y Francisco De los Santos, presidente de la Asociación Nacional de árbitros de Tenis (ASONATE).
La capacitación de técnicos y jueces de tenis es parte de un plan más amplio que abarca distintas disciplinas deportivas. Alrededor de 200 técnicos de cuatro deportes distintos participan en cursos similares durante este periodo, como parte del programa de adiestramiento que busca fortalecer el talento humano y la organización general del evento.

(Facebook: Centro Caribe Sports)
El proceso de preparación se enmarca en el ambicioso proyecto que lidera el Comité Organizador de Santo Domingo 2026, el cual ha priorizado la formación de jueces, voluntarios y responsables técnicos en todas las áreas. La villa de los atletas, recientemente supervisada por delegados internacionales, ha sido catalogada como una de las mejores para este tipo de competencias. Las obras principales, como la remodelación del Estadio Olímpico Félix Sánchez, el complejo acuático, los recintos de voleibol, tenis de mesa y otras instalaciones, avanzan conforme al cronograma original, bajo la vigilancia de las autoridades deportivas y gubernamentales del país.
El presidente del Comité Organizador, José P. Monegro, ha remarcado que la organización de los Juegos se basa en los principios de austeridad, modernidad e integración, con el objetivo de optimizar los recursos y aprovechar la infraestructura existente. La edición de 2026 coincidirá con el centenario de Centro Caribe Sports, lo que añade un valor simbólico especial a la cita.
De acuerdo con datos oficiales de la República Dominicana, se espera la participación de 6,220 atletas de 37 países en más de 40 deportes y unas 57 disciplinas. El impacto de los Juegos no se limita al ámbito deportivo: las autoridades estiman la llegada de cerca de 100,000 visitantes a Santo Domingo, lo que impulsará el turismo y la economía local. En paralelo, el programa de voluntariado ya ha capacitado a más de 500 personas, y la mascota oficial, Colí, representa el compromiso con la identidad y biodiversidad dominicanas.
El gobierno dominicano, a través del presidente Luis Abinader, ha reiterado su respaldo a la organización y ha subrayado la importancia de mantener los avances en la planificación y ejecución de las obras. El Comité Organizador, en colaboración con el Ministerio de Deportes, el Comité Olímpico Dominicano y otras entidades, busca asegurar que la justa se desarrolle bajo los más altos estándares internacionales y que represente un legado duradero para el país.
El esfuerzo por profesionalizar y certificar a los técnicos y jueces de tenis constituye un paso fundamental para que la República Dominicana consolide su prestigio como anfitrión de eventos deportivos regionales.
