Rahamim ‘Rami’ Shy, a former senior advisor in the Barack Obama administration, has been arraigned in Great Britain on child sex offense charges. Shy, who previously coordinated the U.S. government’s strategy against Al Qaeda and the Taliban, is accused of arranging the commission of a child sex offense and possessing indecent images of minors.
Shy, a U.S. citizen residing in New Jersey, served under Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, holding key positions at the Treasury between 2008 and 2014. He was most recently an executive at Citi, although the banking group now says he is no longer an employee.
Shy appeared before Luton Crown Court on Friday via video link from His Majesty’s Prison Bedford. He was not asked to enter a plea.
Following the charges, Shy has ceased employment with Citi. He is expected to be remanded in custody until at least June, and his trial is currently scheduled for August.
Several former members of the Obama and Joe Biden governments have run into difficulties with law enforcement over the last year. In November 2023, former Obama advisor Stuart Seldowitz was charged with a hate crime after a xenophobic rant against an Egyptian street vendor in New York. In May 2023, non-binary drag queen Sam Brinton, formerly an official at the Office of Nuclear Energy, was arrested as a fugitive from justice.
Brinton, whose role in the Biden regime was first exposed by The National Pulse, had top-level “Q clearance,” but was fired after being caught stealing women’s underwear from airport luggage while on government business.
