Obama Center's opening ceremony ridiculed for far-left ritual before star-studded show

At Thursday’s ceremony marking the beginning of the Obama Presidential Center’s opening weekend, the master of ceremonies began with a left-wing "land acknowledgment ritual," for which the entire event was promptly mocked. 

Valerie Jarrett, the former senior advisor to Obama when he was president and the current CEO of the Obama Foundation, kicked things off.

"We’d also like to take a moment to recognize the original inhabitants of the land upon which we are gathered today," she said.
