The Democratic powerhouse duo of Obama and his esteemed wife signals a unified front as Harris, our fearless nominee, gears up for a fierce battle against the dangerous and divisive force that is former President Donald Trump.

As the convention unfolds under the apt theme, "A Bold Vision for America's Future," Obama's speech tonight is expected to inspire and galvanize the nation, evoking the transformative spirit that defined his own presidency.

The Democratic National Convention, held in the vibrant city of Chicago, serves as a critical launchpad for the Harris-Walz campaign, a call to action for all Americans who yearn for a more equitable and just future.
