Corruption in the White House? Russian documentary hones in on Michelle Obama

'This is not fair-to forget about American corruption.'

Russian TV host Dmitry Kiselyov announced his upcoming documentary will focus on corruption in America. The announcement came complete with a 10-minute trailer focusing on First Lady Michelle Obama on a Spain vacation six years ago.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Kiselyov is a big host in Russia and has a prime-time show called "News of the Week." On Valentine's Day he described the documentary and released a 10-minute sneak peek. 

The documentary, titled, "Emperor Obama: The first US family spends taxpayers' money," is a CGI recreation of Michelle Obama's Spain vacation from 2010.

The First Lady vacationed with her daughters Malia and Sasha at the Spanish hotel Villa Padierna, where the hotel manager stated, "The information on our clients is strictly confidential" before admitting Obama stayed at their hotel.

"She was our most famous guest. Since then, we named one of our villas after her. Villa Obama has three floors, two bedrooms, one swimming pool and a big living room - here is Villa Obama."

A young female reporter is shown walking through the rooms, saying, "On the fourth of August 2010, the U.S. president celebrated his 49th birthday, and the very same day his spouse, Michelle Obama, arrived for her vacation in Spain."

The reporter skims the soft silk sheets and rare travertine marble as she says: "Here are the official numbers: for the week starting August 4, 131,000 Americans were fired, losing their incomes and jobs. At that moment, Michelle Obama was on vacation, and the taxpayers were paying $6,000 a night for this hotel suit."

She continued, saying Obama and her daughters brought 69 bodyguards from America and hired another 250 Spanish guards. To add insult to injury, the reporter announced: "At $11,000 per hour, Michelle's flight from Washington D.C., to the Spanish Malaga cost the US $150,000. The U.S. Air Force was suing for Michelle's unlawful vacation - and for the fifth year, the lawsuit drags on without any resolution."

The Obamas vacation each summer and Christmas season, which the reporter claims costs taxpayers anywhere from $10 million to $74 million annually. For example, the reporter explained the cost of a single family trip to Hawaii in 2014 cost $5,316,000.

The report didn't end there.

An American analyst appears in the video and asks about Flint, Michigan, asking, Did you hear what happened in Flint, Mich, where the whole town was poisoned? Kids, pregnant women...How much money did he spend on his vacations, you say? $74 million? But he gave Flint only $5 million - $5 million to the poisoned people...as much as the launch of two military drones!"

The trailer concludes with the cover of Culture of Corruption, by Michelle Malkin. The reporter either ignores or doesn't understand the English words "New York Times BESTSELLER" in bold yellow highlights on the top of the cover or the "NEW YORK FIVE's BEST SELLING" statement above the author's name, and says, "This book, with a cracked portrait of Obama on its cover, didn't become a bestseller in the U.S.

The strange CGI appears similar to PC game The Sims, with animated shots of red carpets, bodyguards with contorted, angry faces, cartoon paparazzi snapping photos and a photographer getting tased.

The video does not, however, retract from the fact that the Obamas have come under fire for their "whirlwind" vacation expenses and other questionable spending habits.
