President Obama was campaigning across the country over the weekend.
He always makes it plain and clear what’s at stake in the election.
This might be the best Barack Obama sound bite EVER! Seriously. https://t.co/QTVCxOxxgc

It’s actually worth listening to this whole segment. Because this is the central point: if you want to be an elected public official it must be b/c you have plans to serve the ppl & to solve problems – not b/c you’d like access to a microphone to tell us your rambling thoughts. https://t.co/oXyxayWvoX

Obama: But I have to speak the truth. Which is these days it is just about every Republican politician seems obsessed with just two things, own the libs, hey, let's own the libs. And getting Donald Trump's approval. That is their agenda. pic.twitter.com/iDZrmBDIFQ

Obama: Some of them said, they will impeach Joe Biden. When you ask them what for, they’re not sure yet. You’re laughing but it’s true. Now here’s the question, how is that going to help you? pic.twitter.com/dYnZqYTP1U

Candidates like @StaceyAbrams, @SanfordBishop, @BeeForGeorgia, and @ReverendWarnock care about the issues you care about.
They’ll protect our basic rights, strengthen our democracy, and build an economy that works for everyone – not just those at the top.

As President Obama said, Georgia voters have a choice. Do you want somebody who carries around a phony badge like a kid playing cops and robbers? Or do you want proven leaders like Reverend Warnock? pic.twitter.com/S96MwpYt02

Obama: The other day of video came out of Whitmer's opponent claiming that Democrats have been working for decades to topple the US because they are still upset about losing the civil war. Covid restrictions were part of some massive plan to do this. First of all, what? pic.twitter.com/ej5bFFLZga

The man remains as incisive a communicator as ever. This whole speech really does a brilliant job cutting to the biggest hits of why not to vote for Republicans this cycle. https://t.co/s9YkQNPSk7

THREAD
The same Obama asked you to vote during midterms in 2010 and you didn’t. He told you he would take it as a personal insult if you didn’t vote for Hillary in 2016 and you didn’t. So spare me the “wow” and “every dem needs to be Obama” hot takes. We don’t believe you!
— Nkem™️ (@nkem) October 30, 2022
Bottomline is there no question Obama is a phenomenal human being and a truly gifted orator the likes that have never been seen before. However, that doesn’t absolve you of the work YOU need to do. So get to it.

Tonight at midnight, Atlanta Medical Center will close its doors for good. For over 100 years, it has served GA residents – critically, as a stroke unit and Level 1 Trauma Center. There will now be only ONE Level 1 trauma hospital in ATL and North GA. Brian Kemp has failed us.
Marisa Pyle (@marisapk) tweeted at 7:57 AM on Mon, Oct 31, 2022:
What does this mean?
– worse outcomes for patients
– longer wait times and travel times for care
– stress on GA’s already overburdened remaining hospitals
Kemp’s refusal to expand Medicaid and address GA’s hospital crisis is deadly. In ONE WEEK, we can vote him out.

So do you guys know that The University of Alabama, is trying to get a general education core approved that eliminates the need for students to take a single history course, a single literature course, and also eliminates foreign languages. Madness.
Juan José Ponce Vázquez (@jjponcevazquez) tweeted at 9:04 PM on Sat, Oct 29, 2022:
I should add that they also reduced the need of students to take writing intensive courses from 2 to 1, because you know, student come to college with excellent writing skills that don’t need to develop. Who needs writing anyway?
