Former President Barack Obama’s office released a statement Monday supporting the protests going on around the country, and speaking out against discriminating against individuals because of their faith or religion, saying “American values are at stake.”
Kevin Lewis, spokesman for Obama in his post-presidency, said that Obama — who has been threading the balance between the tradition of presidents deferring to their successors and coming out against President Donald Trump on specific issues he considered core values — “is heartened by the level of engagement taking place in communities around the country.”
It is Obama's first statement since leaving the White House.

What took zero so long to speak out?
American values are at stake. Thank goodness for President Trump.
Why is it always “american values” they cite whenever they want to do some liberal retarded thing? Like importing worthless people who want to kill you?
I wonder what Obama’s phone bill be for this last week ?
‘American values are at stake’
YES...
THEY ARE....
So glad we didn’t go after this fraud’s photoshopped birth certificate /sarc
If he is still in the Bahamas, he could do with some extreme vetting himself upon his return.
Funny how he didnt feel the same way when he imposed the SAME BAN in 2011
They learned that half of American voters will believe and worship ANYTHING the Fraud says, and indoctrinate or ostracize their friends in support of their god.
“Abortion is an American value”, the intolerant murderers tell us.
The first public statement, but it is only the beginning for this communist community organizer.
Obama wrote the EO identifying the seven countries
Trump is enforcing it, for just the next 90 days
Someone send OBowma a paper bag to put over his head
Did he comment on his ban?
Hey, Obama, that’s why we’re doing it, meathead.
Sounds impersonal.
Shut up, and stay out of our business. The seven countries were on your Terrorist List, Obozo, but unlike you, who never used that list because you were always on “the Muslim side,” Pres. Trump takes seriously the security of the United States.
FORMER president 0bama can go take a big bite of what made him. And also, shaddup, you irrelevant halfbreed bastard...
The Fake News Media won’t report 0bama’s ban, the sheeple might get suspect.
Hes using Obamas own eo’s. Barry? You awake buddy?
Its just about crushing your enemy.
There is no requirement we take a single refugee. Great platform democrats, make America Muslim.
