Obama’s brother drops ‘Big Mike’ question on X

Barack Obama’s half-brother Malik Obama has started a firestorm on social media by asking his followers to comment whether they thought former First Lady Michelle Obama was a man or a woman.

In the post, Malik tweeted, “Is Big Mike a Man or a Woman?” sparking a wave of reactions and fueling discussions online.

This comment referenced the name ‘Big Mike’, a label often levelled by skeptics at Michelle Obama in support of the theory that she is a man.

The tweet quickly gained traction, with some users denouncing it as offensive and others amplifying the theory, which has circulated for years.

This is not the first time Malik Obama has made headlines for statements or positions differing significantly from those of his famous half-brother. Malik, who has a complex history of public disagreements with Barack Obama, previously endorsed conservative figures and has openly supported some “right-wing” narratives.
