Obamas Share ‘Never Seen Before’ Photo
Former President Barack Obama has made an interesting move just days after he admitted that his political activism in speaking out against President Donald Trump is causing “genuine tension” with his wife.
Rumors have circulated for years that Barack and Michelle Obama’s marriage is in trouble and that they have been having issues. (Obama accused of committing treason for act against Trump)
Despite the former first family denying the rumors, they have persisted.
The former president shared a “behind-the-scenes” photo of himself with his wife Michelle Obama and their two children in a Mother’s Day tribute. (Photo of Barack goes viral for all the wrong reasons)
“Wishing all the moms out there a wonderful Mother’s Day! To @MichelleObama, I’m grateful for all the ways you’ve shown up for our daughters and our family over the years. We love you,” Barack captioned the image, which appeared to have been taken from early on in his political career. The photo showed the former politician sitting at his desk in a brown leather chair with his youngest daughter Sasha in his lap.
Last week, Barack Obama told an outlet that Trump’s policies and actions are causing him to remain more involved in politics “than I would have preferred.”
That said, his renewed political involvement in left-wing causes has come at a personal cost.
“She wants to see her husband easing up and spending more time with her, enjoying what remains of our lives,” Barack said of Michelle in an interview with the New Yorker.
“It does create a genuine tension in our household, and it frustrates her. I’m more forgiving of it, in the sense that I understand why people feel that way, because people aren’t looking at me in historical comparison to other presidents. They don’t care about the fact that no other ex-president was the main surrogate for the Party for four election cycles after they left office,” he said, making the issue all about himself, which is par for the course with him.
Obama went on to falsely claim that he had held back from criticizing Trump since the latter took office in 2017. In reality, Obama has frequently criticized Trump and his policies, though he hasn’t actually referred to Trump by name.
The latest example was a speech he gave at the late civil rights icon Jesse Jackson’s funeral, where comments he made were widely regarded as being directed toward Trump.
“We are living in a time when it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions, another setback to the idea of the rule of law, an offense to common decency. Every day you wake up to… to things you just didn’t think were possible,” he said during the speech.
“Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other, and to turn on each other. And that some Americans count more than others, and that some don’t even count at all! Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength! We see science and expertise denigrated, while ignorance and dishonesty, and cruelty, and corruption ,are reaping untold rewards! every single day we see that and it’s hard to hope In those moments,” he continued.
“So it may be tempting to give to get discouraged, to give in to cynicism. It may be tempting for some to compromise with power, and grab what you can, or even for good people to maybe just put your head down and wait for the storm to pass. But this man, Reverend Jesse Louis Jackson, inspires us to take a harder path,” Obama droned on.
“His voice calls on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope, to step forward and say, ‘Send me!’ wherever we have a chance to make an impact, whether it’s in our school, or our workplaces, or our neighborhoods, or our cities. Not for fame, not for glory, or because success is guaranteed, but because it gives our life purpose. Because it aligns with what our faith tells us God demands. And because if we don’t step up, no one else will. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call,” he concluded.
The comments were so partisan and over the top that Jackson’s son, Jesse Jackson Jr., rebuked Obama and other former presidents Bill Clinton and Joe Biden for using the occasion to be political.
For the record, Trump spoke highly of Jackson, despite Jackson’s Democratic political leanings, noting that he was a “force of nature like few others before him.”

Spencer Pratt SURGES POSTING VIRAL LA Animal Ad And THIS Happens As He NOW Leads Over Karen Bass
In an unprecedented turn of events, the Los Angeles mayoral race has taken a dramatic twist as reality television star Spencer Pratt emerges as a serious contender against the incumbent mayor, Karen Bass.
The campaign has gained national attention, with Pratt wrapping up a media tour in New York City that has propelled him into the spotlight.
As the election date draws near, the race has become increasingly competitive, with recent polls indicating a neck-and-neck battle between Pratt and Bass.
Matt Finn, reporting from Los Angeles, highlights the tense atmosphere as both candidates ramp up their efforts to secure votes.
Karen Bass, the Democratic incumbent, has been actively campaigning, holding rallies and events to galvanize her supporters.
At a recent rally at the SEIU Union Building, Bass addressed her opponents, including Pratt, whom she referred to as a “TV reality star villain.”
Her remarks drew laughter from the crowd as she emphasized the importance of choosing a leader who truly cares for the community rather than a celebrity figure.
Bass’s campaign is focused on her experience and commitment to addressing the pressing issues facing Los Angeles, including homelessness and public safety.
However, Pratt’s campaign is gaining traction as he appeals directly to mothers and animal lovers, positioning himself as a candidate who will prioritize the needs of families and pets.
In a recent interview with Fox News, Pratt stated, “Moms are getting me elected because I’m saying, ‘Oh, as mayor, I’m going to enforce the law and make sure moms and kids can use their parks again.’”
He emphasized the need to combat illegal encampments and restore safety in neighborhoods, presenting himself as a candidate of change.
Pratt’s message resonates with voters who are frustrated with the current state of affairs in Los Angeles, particularly regarding homelessness and animal welfare.
His campaign has gained momentum thanks to a viral advertisement that highlights the plight of animals in the city’s shelters and on the streets, particularly in areas like Skid Row.
In the ad, Pratt draws a parallel between the unconditional love of dogs and the need for compassion towards all living beings, stating, “There’s a reason dog is just God backwards.”
He criticizes Bass for neglecting the animal crisis and vows to put an end to the suffering of animals in the city.
The advertisement has garnered significant attention on social media, with many praising Pratt for bringing attention to the issue of animal welfare.
As the polls tighten, Pratt’s campaign is reportedly outpacing Bass in fundraising, raising concerns for the incumbent as she intensifies her efforts to rally support.
Bass has been seen actively soliciting votes, providing instructions on how to vote and encouraging constituents to participate in the electoral process.
Amid the heightened competition, Pratt’s campaign continues to gain traction, with reports indicating that he has surpassed Bass in some polls, leading to a surge of excitement among his supporters.
With just days left until the election, the stakes are high, and the outcome remains uncertain.
Pratt’s campaign has sparked discussions about the influence of celebrity in politics and the potential for a reality TV star to become a legitimate political leader.
As both candidates prepare for the final push, the Los Angeles mayoral race is shaping up to be one of the most closely watched elections in recent history.
The implications of this election extend beyond Los Angeles, as it raises questions about the future of political leadership and the role of public figures in shaping policy.
In the coming days, voters will have the opportunity to make their voices heard and decide the future of their city.
With the election fast approaching, all eyes are on Los Angeles as the race unfolds.
As Spencer Pratt continues to gain momentum, the question remains: can a reality star truly lead a city, or will the political establishment prevail once again?
Regardless of the outcome, this election has captured the attention of the nation and may set the stage for future political dynamics in America.
The Los Angeles mayoral race serves as a reminder of the power of grassroots movements and the impact of public sentiment on the electoral process.
As the candidates make their final appeals to voters, the future of Los Angeles hangs in the balance, and the city awaits the decision of its residents.
