In fiery speech, Obama names what’s at stake.

November 5, 2025VotingTheresa Drift

In a powerful speech Saturday night, former President Obama praised Virginia Governor candidate, Abigail Spanberger. He also took the current president and the GOP to task for their continued policies and the harm they are doing to our country and fellow citizens.

Excerpts from his speech:

“We’ve got a president who deployed the national guard in American cities and claimed to be stopping crime waves that don’t actually exist,” Obama said. “We’ve got masked ICE agents in unmarked vans pulling people in off the streets, including US citizens, on the suspicion that they don’t look like real Americans.

“It’s like every day is Halloween except it’s all tricks and no treats,” Obama said.

“As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the Rose Garden so folks don’t get mud on their shoes, and gold-plating the Oval Office and building a $300m ballroom,” Obama said. “So Virginia, here’s the good news. If you can’t visit a doctor, don’t worry, he will save you a dance.”
