Academy Award-winning filmmaker and political provocateur Michael Moore offers his subversive and humorous take on the issues of the day and talks to a wide range of people from comedians and politicians to the people who’ve tried to kill him. Plus various mischief with Mike’s friends, family and the neighbors who don’t work for the NSA.
- 327 - Ep. 327: Trump Is the American Bibi. The World Does Not Need a Double Bibi.
Even One Bibi, Who After the Slaughter of October 7th Then Created the Slaughter of October 8, 2023-October 7, 2024, Is Too Much. The Current Slaughter Is the One You and I Fund and Arm. Who Will ForgiveUs? Vice President Harris, Please, Tell Us You'll Fix This.
One year ago today, Michael Moore (and the rest of us) awoke to the devastating news that over 1200 civilians — mostly Jews — had been slaughtered in Israel, and lay dead in the streets.
On today's episode, Michael not only reflects back on that fateful day, but he also uncovers the uncomfortable truths that surfaced in the days, weeks and months that followed, that led us to where we are today: Our tax dollars funding & arming an off-the-rails Netanyahu and his mass slaughter of innocent Palestinians — and now us Americans on the brink of being dragged by Netanyahu into a war with Iran.
Also, only 4 weeks away from November 5th, Michael covers the latest lies and vitriol coming from the American Bibi, Donald J. Trump. Michael reveals the negative effect of our unwavering support of Netanyahu on Michigan voters, and pleads with Vice President Harris to do whatever she can, right now, to end the madness in the Middle East. Or, at the very least, tell the American people, the majority of whom support an immediate ceasefire, that she is going to do right by us and fix this as soon as she holds power.
Finally, today is the LAST DAY TO REGISTER TO VOTE in the following states:

Or just the ones in Springfield, Ohio?
For some bizarre, candidacy-ending reason, Trump is frightened mostly by visitors from Catholic countries.
Is it the germs? Or is it the geese?

Mon, 09 Sep 2024 - 14min - 324 - Ep. 324: Michael Moore is Feeling Pretty Damn Good
Michael Moore can't believe how the tables have turned.
Two months ago, the result of our upcoming 2024 presidential election seemed a foregone conclusion, and a second Trump presidency seemed inevitable. But now — just 71 days before the November 5th election — Michael dares to feel hopeful that we may just elect not only our first woman president, but our most progressive!
Also on today's episode, Michael discusses the one stain on an otherwise spotless Democratic Convention: Their disrespect of Palestinian-Americans by not letting a single one of them speak on the stage. Shame! We, their allies, will not be silent about the slaughter in Gaza.

Mon, 26 Aug 2024 - 47min - 323 - Ep. 323: HERE IS THE PLAN TO REMOVE TRUMP, ELECT HARRIS. Steps 1, 2, and 3
The first steps in using Michael Moore’s 2024 Election Toolkit are easy:
1. Get your head on straight and put your game face on. Own this one important fact: YOU belong to the Majority! Most Americans have had enough of Trump. Most Americans believe in what Kamala believes in: women’s rights, basic freedoms, Justice for all, a home of one’s own, economic democracy, peace, and a fair shake for all.
2. Go Public! Take today and write your personal declaration to your friends and family as to why you’re voting for Kamala Harris and the Dems on November 5th. Put a sign in the yard. Sign up to volunteer at your local Democratic Party. There’s much work to be done!
3. Never forget: You are not alone! But if you vote alone, we lose. Join with other groups and like-minded people to make this election a historic movement to save our Democracy!

There are more of us than there are of you! 79% of the voters in November will be either female, people of color or under 39 yrs old or a combination of all three!

A message from Michael Moore:
"It’s definitely a unique strategy: Defeat Trump by letting Biden have a stroke (or worse).
Here is the podcast version of my written plea for someone to please step in and get President Biden the medical evaluation and help he so obviously needs. An amazing one out of five of our 45 previous presidents have NOT made it to the end of their term. The Founders anticipated this and created an easy solution. We all voted for her in 2020 just in case of and for exactly this reason. Stop wasting another minute! We need every one of the next 122 days for the millions of us to be out there doing the work we must do to block Trump from returning to the White House.
President Biden, thank you for the good you have done. You will be remembered throughout the ages. But not if you let your enablers hound you into doing what your body is begging you not to do. Be the one who not only stopped Trump, but also the brave man who gave us our first woman in the Oval Office. She will complete your mission — and we will stand beside her. THIS is your moment in history. Let the doctors examine you. Then do the right thing."

Last week the state of Louisiana enacted a new law requiring the Ten Commandments be posted in every classroom in every school in the state — from kindergarten to the final year of college.
But it looks like Louisiana will be posting the wrong 10 Commandments. God has recently updated his original 10 from the Bible. He/She/They spoke to Michael Moore and asked him to share the New 10 Commandments 7.0 with his podcast audience…

Michael Moore offers his own running commentary with his annotated verbal notes on where Biden has it right, and where he has it so weirdly, mistakenly wrong (see: Old White Dude vs Ancient White Man or Michigan v. Delaware, 2024).

It's a Novel Idea: Let The Students Speak
On this week’s episodes of Michael Moore’s podcast, Mike and his crew disobey the college presidents and NYC’s Mayor Adam’s orders to “outsiders” to stay off the campuses and to stop trying to “radicalize” our youth (because young people don’t have a mind of their own). Mike’s crew (Angie, Donald, and “Anonymous”) paid a visit to protest encampments made up of students from Columbia, City College, City University (CUNY), NYU, etc. to hear directly from the brilliant student organizers of these historic demonstrations. These are the voices you won’t hear on the mainstream media. Listen here to their eloquence and passion as they take a stand for the Palestinian people.

On this episode of Michael Moore’s podcast, we learn about the UAW’s history-making plan to bring union wages, union benefits and a paid vacation to every working class American. You in? Your grandparents had a pension.
Working people have been put through the grinder. Now it’s time that the wealthy paid for their sins.
Also — thank the universe for the protesting college students of America. As Netanyahu and Biden continue the slaughter of the innocents, young Americans are fighting back. It is an amazing and inspiring sight! Let’s support them in every way that we can. As their signs say on their encampments: SILENCE IS VIOLENCE.

On today’s podcast with Michael Moore, Mike answers the burning questions surrounding the disappearance of the Princess of Wales and then dumps a bucket of ice water on us so we can wake up and finally admit the Central Truths we didn’t want to acknowledge in 2016:
A. Trump is smarter than us. If you don’t think so, then stop right now and tell me how YOU could get elected President while sexually assaulting women (then bragging about it); lying about your worth in order to defraud banks and not pay your taxes; and finally ordering state officials to stuff a ballot box with 11,780 nonexistent votes for you. He may be an idiot and a bigot, but he’s also an evil genius (with the emphasis on genius).
B. Trump has never been convicted of a crime, and has never spent a single night in jail. How delusional do we have to be to believe that after a 50-year career of Trump committing one perfect crime after another that suddenly now his unbroken streak of evading the law is going to come to an end?!
C. The Special Prosecutor will not save us. Fani Willis will not save us. The Trump-appointed Bankers Boxes judge will not save us. The electoral college will definitely not save us. Joe Biden’s campaign staff will not save us. Stormy Daniels will not save us.
The only ones who can save us is ourselves.
Are you ready?

Mon, 18 Mar 2024 - 1h 01min - 310 - Ep. 310: Biden Must Save Biden From Himself. It's the Only Way to Ensure Trump Never Sets Foot in the Oval Office Again.
Over 100,000 Michigan voters in the Democratic Presidential Primary last week sent a message to Biden. Their message was strong and clear: End this war. Stop funding Israel's slaughter. Young voters in this 21st century will not support a president who funds a massacre, and if Biden continues to ignore the wishes of the vast majority of Americans, he will lose thousands of people in November who simply won't vote, and Trump will win by default.

Our descent into madness continues. The U.S. blocked a U.N. peace resolution calling for a humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza, three escaped Israeli hostages, waving a white flag, were gunned down by Israeli soldiers, and the U.S. House of Representatives voted to authorize an impeachment inquiry against Biden with zero evidence of wrongdoing — the very definition of a lunacy.
In this episode of Rumble, Michael Moore calls on Biden to stop backing Netanyahu, and recalls a conversation he had with former President Clinton, exactly 25 years ago, less than two days before Clinton’s impeachment vote.

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 - 37min - 301 - Ep. 301: Self Help For Frightened Liberals
You’re scared. You’re anxious. You’re coming unglued. We understand. The telly keeps shouting at you: “Biden’s approval rating has now dropped to 39%!” “Trump is ahead of Biden 47-46%!” “67% of Democrats believe Biden shouldn’t run because he is too old!” “52% of Americans believe Trump accomplished more than Biden has!!”
This is way too much to handle! Everyone needs to breathe deep and participate in some self help therapy to get through all this BS. So light a candle, turn on the lavender and eucalyptus aroma machine to mist up your room and let Dr. Mike remind you why the monster is not going to return.

In a brief Labor Day message, longtime union member Michael Moore (currently on strike with his fellow writers and actors) salutes the work that you all do, offers his support for the autoworkers who may go on strike in September, and thanks Turner Classic Movies, a channel on everyone’s basic cable, for having a special prime time Labor Day double feature on Monday night: At 8pm ET Barbara Kopple’s Oscar-winning “Harlan County, USA”, and at 10pm ET, his very first film from 1989, “Roger & Me”.
We hope you get to watch both of these and let your friends and family know about them. Both documentaries have been selected by the Library of Congress’ National Film Preservation Board as groundbreaking films that the Library and Congress will protect for future generations.

It’s a grab bag of insanity on Michael Moore’s podcast this week as he declares the Republican Party DOA (although he detects it’s still barely breathing and there’s no death certificate yet). Sooo…
Also, a big thank you to Fani Willis, the District Attorney in Atlanta for filing the indictment of indictments, a masterpiece of Justice. Her father was a criminal defense lawyer and a member of the Black Panther Party — she is the fighter we’ve needed. She’s gonna shut the whole Trump mob operation down.
All that and more on Episode #299 of Rumble with Michael Moore. Enjoy!

Mon, 21 Aug 2023 - 1h 00min - 298 - Ep. 298: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM — INDICTED! RACKETEERING!! It Turns Out Trump Really Is a Mobster.
Just moments ago, as the clock was ready to strike midnight, Fani Willis, the District Attorney of Fulton, Co., Georgia, announced that a citizens Grand Jury has voted to indict former president Donald J. Trump and his 18 Co-Conspirators (including Rudy Giuliani, Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, lawyer John Eastman and others) on 41 counts of racketeering and other criminal acts for conspiring to form an “organized crime enterprise” which attempted to “illegally overturn the 2020 presidential election” through theft, fraud, forgery, impersonating law enforcement, impersonating electors to the Electoral College, and for conspiring with other top elected Republican officials in six other states, plus Republican leaders in the District of Columbia, to overthrow the election and re-seat Trump in the Oval Office for a 2nd term — even though Trump lost the election by 7 million votes. The prosecutor is charging Trump and his crime group under the RICO statutes that are used to convict and imprison those involved in mob-like crimes.
The 90-page indictment lists the commission of “161 overt criminal acts” — a breathtaking, comprehensive list of crimes in an enterprise led by Trump (click here to read the actual indictment). The DA spent nearly two years on her extensive investigation. It reads like no stone was left unturned, with a massive amount of evidence obtained by the prosecutors in her office. It also states that there are 30 other “unnamed, unindicted co-conspirators” who may be indicted at a later time. So at least 48 people joined Trump in forming his organized crime family to overthrow our Democracy. Unbelievable. How close did we come to losing this country?
This Emergency Podcast System edition of “Rumble with Michael Moore” offers an urgent, immediate analysis of this historic moment — and how We, the People, need to stay thoroughly informed and be as active as we ever have been as citizens of this country. This is not the time to have “Trump Fatigue.” This is the moment to put this traitor on trial and make sure that this criminal who has gotten away with EVERYTHING for over 50 YEARS, finally faces Justice.
Please take 18 minutes to listen to how Mike sees the events of last night — and what we must do to make sure this never happens again.

Tue, 15 Aug 2023 - 18min - 297 - Ep. 297: From Maui to Ohio, It’s a Wildfire of Immense Intensity
Whether it’s the Planet in collapse or a Party out of control, this is a summer of death and hope. Michael Moore breaks down the failure to protect the people of Maui but also the will of the voters in Ohio to stand up for women’s rights. The official cover-up has already begun in Hawaii as those in charge are unable to explain why over a hundred people (or more) had to die. The overwhelming vote last week to stop the Christian jihad against the majority gender was breathtaking, considering it happened in Ohio of all places. It portends a massive turnout in next year’s presidential election where, if we all do our job and the Democrats show some guts, there won’t be enough bankers boxes left to hide in at Mar-a-Lago.
In the meantime, let’s demand that our elected representatives send help to Maui, and each of us do what we can to contribute to the recovery.

Twelve days after the passing of Tony Bennett, Michael Moore shares his encounters with this truly great American. From the first time they met 33 years ago, to the times they often sat in attendance a grade school band concert, to Tony’s participation in the Selma March, his Bronze Star in the army in WWII for helping to liberate a Dachau concentration camp, to being there (along with Harry Belafonte) on the opening night of Mike’s Broadway show. For years, Tony was an accidental mentor to Mike and a source of wisdom on how to make it in this world. This is Michael Moore’s tribute to a good soul who meant a lot to many.

Mon, 17 Jul 2023 - 44min - 294 - Ep. 294: The Scoundrel Court
Michael Moore celebrates our country’s birthday week by going after the Supreme Court and suggesting ways to remove the Justices who have perjured themselves, been caught talking huge sums of money from billionaires and how all six right wing Justices have committed various ethical and financial infractions — but have not been sanctioned or removed. Oh, they’ve also taken wholesale rights away from women, the LGBTQ+ community and people of color. Plus, they’ve gutted the EPA, expanded gun “rights,” and killed Biden’s student loan debt relief plan.
The Supreme Court is now the most disliked and distrusted government institution in the land. Michael goes over how their removal of the Roe v Wade decision has the vast majority of the country against them now. And enough of the righties on the court are worried about their “legacy” or their possible removal from the court. The more we organize against them, the better it will get. Time to rock this not-so-supreme boat.

Mon, 19 Jun 2023 - 1h 15min - 291 - Ep. 291: Approval Ratings? Nobody Approves!
What is this — high school? These approval ratings are in a time where most of the country doesn't approve of virtually anything. This concept is so antiquated, the pollsters might as well ask the public, in the presidential race, to vote for "Best Dressed", "Most Likely To Succeed", "Cutest Couple", "Class Clown", "MVP", "Best Smile" and "Most Likely to Bring Back Canadian Beer Through the Windsor Tunnel."
In this episode of Rumble, Michael Moore discusses the stupidity of presidential approval ratings and why it doesn't matter how low Biden's is because there still aren't enough Americans willing to return criminal defendant #4913961R to the White House. Says Mike, "Biden could run somebody over in the middle of 5th Avenue and it still won't matter. He will get a second term — and your brother-in-law is still not invited to Thanksgiving dinner this year."

Sun, 23 Apr 2023 - 29min - 288 - Ep. 288: A Tale of Two Bills: How in just weeks, the majority of Americans have categorically ghosted the GOP
Because Republicans and Trumpsters know they are unable put down their own suicide pills, they soldier on in denying women (the majority gender) their basic reproductive rights — and they continue making it so easy for mass killers to buy as many assault rifles as they want (according to The New Republic, American citizens have now stockpiled 400 million guns in their homes, more than the entire US armed forces, Dept. of Homeland Security, and all local police agencies combined). And women, young adults and people of color, by a large margin, hate the Right for making this happen. On top of all of that, Republicans tried to remove from office two young elected Black Tennessee House members for standing up against this gun violence, thus denying 175,000 Tennesseans their voice in the State Capitol. Millions of young voters have sent their anti-Republican memes and TikToks everywhere and they will determinedly continue their decades-long rejection of this old, stale, rotten Party.
In this episode of his Rumble podcast, Michael Moore explores the impending end of a GOP hell-bent on throwing themselves over a cliff.
Plus, he shares his thoughts on a profound evening this week with Joan Baez.

Mon, 17 Apr 2023 - 55min - 287 - Ep. 287: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM — Democracy Suspended in Tennessee
When you’re young, you can only take so much b.s.
And when you watch a bunch of older white racist Southern men — i.e., the Republican supermajority of the Tennessee House of Representatives — attack two young black elected House members for “improper decorum” when they spoke out against gun violence just two days after the mass school shooting last week in Nashville, well racist acts are nothing new to the state where the KKK was born.
So last night the Tennessee House Republicans expelled the two young Black Democratic representatives for daring to give voice to those too young to vote — but old enough to be killed at school.
It was a stunning moment in the fight against those who seek to destroy our Democracy. In this Emergency Podcast System episode of Rumble, recorded moments after the final vote, Mike reveals the silver lining: the more young adults who watch the footage of this travesty, the sooner we will witness the eventual demise of the white man’s Republican Party.

The last thing you expect to hear on a quiet Sunday afternoon in your Northern Michigan apartment two blocks off Lake Michigan, in the middle of winter, is the sonic BOOM of a fighter jet breaking the sound barrier. But that's exactly what Michael Moore’s neighborhood heard yesterday afternoon, February 12, 2023.
Why?
Because the U.S. Air Force was on its way to shooting down the 3rd UFO of THIS WEEKEND — this time over Lake Huron. All this and after that Chinese spy balloon last weekend.
WTF is going on? It's time to ask some uncomfortable questions...

A little over a week ago, Michael watched, along with millions of Americans, 5 Memphis police officers brutally execute 29-year-old photographer and father, Tyre Nichols — a 2nd-shift Fed-Ex employee en route home on his dinner break to sit at his mother’s table for some of her home-cooked sesame chicken — and felt…
Numb.
A week later, he finally realized why.
Under the guise of transparency, we are being lied to — including by Memphis police chief Cerelyn Davis.
On this episode of Rumble, Michael Moore pulls the mask off and exposes the truth: there are no heroes here, they haven’t scratched the surface of accountability, this is merely damage control being sold as “justice.”

Over 2 weeks ago, on Christmas Day, Michael launched his special Rumble mini-podcast series “Blue Dots in a Red Sea: How to Win When You’re Blue in a Red State” with ideas and strategies of how we can build on our Blue Wall momentum from the 2022 midterm elections, and turn even more red states, red counties, and red towns blue in time for the 2024 election.
On this final episode, he reflects on the lessons learned throughout the series, and looks to the road ahead…
What if we do this?
What would that Blue world look like?
Could we handle the joy?…

Wed, 11 Jan 2023 - 28min - 279 - Ep. 279: "Blue Dots in a Red Sea" Part 11: The Ballot Proposal. Yes, you can pass a law.
We are often told that we are led by a “government of the people, by the people, for the people.”
But being a liberal/left/progressive/Democrat in a red state, run by a red legislature intent on banning books, suppressing the vote of its Black and Brown citizens, and stripping women of their right to bodily autonomy, it can feel more like you’re living in a 16th century Christian state or last week in Alabama. And change seems at best improbable, but most often impossible.
Yet, 26 states — including a bunch of red states like Mississippi, Florida, Wyoming and more — offer a clear path for citizens to create change and pass laws themselves, through ballot initiatives. That’s how a red state like Nebraska raised its minimum wage by nearly 70%, how a red state like Montana legalized marijuana, and how Michigan was able to break free from its gerrymandered red chains and turn blue.
In episode 11 of Michael Moore's Rumble miniseries “Blue Dots in a Red Sea,” he encourage those that live in states (or the District of Columbia) that allow citizen-led ballot proposals to use this incredible tool in this 2024 election cycle. And for those that live in states that don’t, to implore their state legislatures — especially in blue states like New York — to change that!

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 - 26min - 278 - Ep. 278: "Blue Dots in a Red Sea" Part 10: Recruit and Run a Beloved Blue Winner
Perhaps the most important job your new Blue Man and Woman Group needs to do is to find candidates to run as Democrats and win! In a red county!
The last three national elections in 2018, 2020 and 2022 saw many liberal/left/progressive Democrats defeat Republicans in red states and counties across America. Every district, every county in the red states has thousands of people who are pro-choice, pro-earth, anti-racist, anti-gerrymandering and believe the way you believe.
If you are forming a new group of like-minded people in your area, make one of your first jobs be candidate recruitment. You must find the right people to run in 2024. Not the same old well-meaning folks who always lose. New blood! Fresh faces! Women, young adults, beloved citizens of your town. Not politician types. Just good people who will listen to voters and work hard to win their votes. Community heroes, progressive preachers, Girl Scout leaders, everyone’s favorite English teacher. When they run as Democrats, especially in red areas, now they often win. The effort to find the right candidates must happen now. Get with your friends and brainstorm a list. The right candidates exist on your street.
In this episode of Rumble, Michael Moore lays out how progressives can win in red districts. It all comes down to casting!

So you already live in a Blue city. What can you do to help those who don’t? Become sister cities! Reach out to each other. Share ideas on how to win. How to run the right candidates. Raise money for them in Idaho or West Virginia. Hold potlucks over Zoom. Get in the car and go visit them. At election time make calls and send postcards for their candidates. You can help turn a red area blue!
This act of solidarity is a sure fire way to unite the majority of us and create the world we want to live in. And it’s fun. Meet your new friends in Tuscaloosa!

Thu, 05 Jan 2023 - 11min - 276 - Ep. 276: Madness and Pandemonium Consume House Republicans as Their Party Enters Its Final Year(s)
One by one, the wheels come off the clown car in the Best Comedy of the decade.
On the first day of the 118th Congress, in a performance not witnessed by this nation in nearly 170 years, the House Republicans chose to commit a mass murder-suicide of their last vestige of electoral political power, putting on a humiliating show to the world, and offering massive relief to all who worried about the damage they might do to the USA over the next two years.
We learned yesterday that the only true destruction these MAGA-heads are capable of now is taking their own running leap off the cliff of the Capitol Dome. The irony that these insurrectionist-loving traitors would, just two years later, conduct an actual uprising against themselves is pure, sweet Justice.
Michael Moore, on this episode of Rumble, offers his play-by-play review of this mad, insane day, brought to us live on C-SPAN, with the “losing” party in the House looking like the winners, running the show, providing the laugh track and winning every ballot with the most votes for Democrat Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker of the House.
Clowns may look scary, but sleep safe tonight America, this batch of Bozos is incapable of doing much harm to anyone other than themselves.

Local journalism in the United States is virtually dead. And when there's no free press, eventually there'll be no democracy. And if you live in a red state, it's even worse.
If you live in any red area, you can almost guarantee there is no journalistic watchdog keeping an eye on the local men with the money and the power. What better project for your new Blue group to do than to start up your own online local "newspaper." A little bit of reporting goes a long way, and it's a great place to share your opinions and to explain our agenda. This endeavor can be your public Voice.
Even if it's just a few of you, your neighbors will be happy to have a place to go where they can read about what's really happening in your town. Michael Moore explains how he did a similar thing when he was twenty.

Sun, 01 Jan 2023 - 11min - 273 - Ep. 273: "Blue Dots in a Red Sea" Part 6: Our Civic Duty — WE Must Attend!
On this Rumble episode of Michael Moore's special podcast series, “Blue Dots in a Red Sea,” Mike asks for all of us to attend one or two school board, town council or County Commission meetings this coming year — to be there as a Democratic/Progressive/Left witness to what the elected officials are up to.
In a red, Republican area, they are very used to no one showing up, especially not any liberals or the new Blue group you and your friends are forming. And all you’re doing is just sitting there, quietly observing, taking notes and minding your own business. You will report back to your Blue group via email and social media what happened at the meeting. Maybe nothing happened. That is, until all of a sudden someone on the school board proposed banning a dozen books because they contained “gay characters.” And then that’s your cue to approach the podium during the public comment section, introduce yourself as a representative of the local new Democrats (pause for a second so they can adjust their brains as they’ve never met anybody calling themself a “Democrat” in Red Snake County) and then kindly tell them that your group will not tolerate any kind of bigoted book banning and there will be many more of you at the next meeting.
And that’s how change happens. Simply because you showed up.
Have a safe New Year’s Eve. Say goodbye to 2022 and let’s get ready to rock the casbah in 2023! The Blue Tsunami is just beginning!

On this episode of Mike’s mission to turn Red into Blue, he offers a number of specific ideas for progressives and liberals (who are stuck in deep red parts of the country) to establish liberal Democratic outposts that provide real, everyday help to anyone in need, regardless of their political affiliation.
Mike believes that once a few people see how it’s the libs and the Dems who are truly here to help, a seismic political shift will begin. Nothing says “love your enemy” more than giving his kid a free winter coat or some tutoring help on his daughter’s history test. Soon the citizens of Red Snake County will see it’s the Democrats who are here to help.
This episode is a must-listen.
Send it to friends and families trapped in red districts.

Now that you know there are THOUSANDS of like-minded progressives, liberals, Democrats, independents and nonvoters in your red county and state, it’s time to get to work and have a gathering of this new Blue Tsunami movement. It’s time to either jump in and grow the existing local Democratic Party or, better yet, start your own Dem org if a seriously active and successful one doesn’t currently exist.
On this quickie episode of Michael Moore’s special series this week (and next) of mini podcasts — “Blue Dots in a Red Sea” — Mike lays out a simple plan to create a new Blue movement in your red town, county and state. It’s going to attract new people, young people, and we’re going to have fun flipping one red office holder after another. Please give it a listen and share with others — especially your sister who got transferred to Texas or your aunt who’s now wondering why was she so excited about retiring in Florida.

SPOILER ALERT! Your neighbors and coworkers are a lot more progressive than you think. They already agree with you on so many things. If you talk to them, not about Democrats vs. Republicans but rather about clean air vs. polluted air, or the Golden Rule vs. the Rule of the Bullies, or women being paid the same as men vs. not, you’ll find more agreement with each other than not. So your Blue army is much bigger than you thought.
In this third episode of Michael Moore’s special 12-day mini podcast series — "Blue Dots in a Red Sea" — spreading his strategy of how we can turn red into blue across the country, Mike helps you find the people who already agree with you but would never call themselves a Democrat.

Mon, 19 Dec 2022 - 34min - 265 - Ep. 265: House of Traitors, Trump Tower of Treason
On this episode of Rumble with Michael Moore, Mike dives deep into our biggest terrorist threat — us. Or, more specifically, the fact that one of our two major parties is led by hundreds of elected officials who still want to overthrow the government by overturning the 2020 election AND by suppressing the votes of Black Americans. Mike calls these efforts an act of treason. Plus, the current and still twice-impeached leader of that party has now called for the "termination" of the United States Constitution — and the demand that he be installed as our unelected dictator. Madness!
But it’s real, it’s still with us, and in 3 weeks 118 House members and 10 U.S Senators — all of whom voted on the night of January 6, 2021 to overturn the election — will be sworn in as part of our 118th US Congress. This sacred headquarters of our Democracy will house 128 traitors who tried to overthrow our government. What are we to do about this?
To help create and cement the historical record, Mike names the names of each one of these traitors.

This week the world lost an incredible force of good, the godmother of the modern documentary, Julia Reichert, whose groundbreaking work inspired countless filmmakers that followed — including 17-year-old Michael Moore in 1971 when he drove his parents' car to Ann Arbor to watch her first film, Growing Up Female, a subversive feminist documentary, in an auditorium on the University of Michigan campus. Years later, they would become friends, and today on Rumble, Michael pays tribute to Julia.
Also, fresh off the United States Men’s soccer team’s loss in the 2022 World Cup, Michael shares his take on the world’s game of football, and gives one final push to Rumble listeners to Get Out the Vote for Senator Raphael Warnock before the final midterm runoff election in Georgia this Tuesday.

Last night, on November 29, 2022, a federal jury in Washington, D.C., found that indeed there was an actual conspiracy to commit sedition — the overthrow of our democratically-elected government — by a number of white male American citizens in the weeks leading up to the January 6th violent insurrection that ransacked the Capitol and sent 535 members of Congress and the lackey vice-president, plus their staffs, fleeing for their lives.
But it turns out the five Americans convicted of various offenses did not include their ringleader, Donald John Trump.
Until that happens, Justice has not happened.
In this episode of Rumble with Michael Moore, Mike probes the inner workings of the most heinous sedition in this nation’s history and what we need to do to have Trump finally pay for his crimes.

Thu, 24 Nov 2022 - 42min - 259 - Ep. 259: We Have Full Control of the House and Senate for 40+ Days! Let’s Pass these Laws!
Congress has officially entered into a “lame duck” session.
On this episode of Rumble, Michael discusses how, over the next 40+ days, the Senate Democrats have the opportunity to be anything but lame, and bring to a vote a series of bills that have already passed the House. Things like…
— Expanding the Civil Rights Act to include the LGBTQ+ community
— Extend the Child Tax Credit
— Expand Medicare to include hearing aids, dental and eye glasses
— End gerrymandering
— Protect DACA kids
— Cap insulin prices for everyone
— End the filibuster
— Give pensions back to G.M. employees

Thu, 25 Aug 2022 - 30min - 251 - Ep. 251: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM — WE ARE ALL IN KANSAS!
THIS JUST IN: The citizens of the State of Kansas — which is one of our reddest and most Republican states — has just voted in an overwhelming landslide tonight to keep abortion legal and available to all women!
Here Michael Moore sends the word out to all that those who seek to take rights away from women shall not succeed and will be defeated in this fall’s election.
Voters in Kansas came out in droves on Tuesday to tell the Supreme Court where they could go. Their message to the rest of us is clear: We have 3 months to work as hard as we can to save our Democracy. All Democrats must sign a pledge to make Roe v Wade the law of the land — and to eliminate the filibuster. All Republicans who voted against certifying the legal results of the 2020 election must go to wherever traitors go.

Last week Pope Francis visited Canada to apologize and seek forgiveness for the crimes committed by the Catholic Church against the indigenous peoples of Canada. He called that practice of Christianity “evil.”
On the first day of his visit Mike received an email from one of Canada’s most well known and beloved Native Canadians, the folksinger Buffy Sainte Marie. In it she explains why an apology isn’t enough.
Mike then asks the Pope (whom he’s met) to grant indigenous people everywhere a Papal Decree that’s long overdue.***************

Mon, 25 Jul 2022 - 48min - 248 - Ep. 248: Forget Me Not
When the news of the week’s events becomes so deafening, so monstrous, that it overwhelms us — we miss critical other events that will affect us greatly.
This week, filled with the Supreme Court declaring women second-class citizens, the January 6th Hearing confirming Trump sought to stage a coup, and mass shootings continuing nationwide, there were vital stories that went uncovered and ignored.
On today’s podcast Mike shares with his audience three big stories that were overlooked by the majority of the American public: the successful unionizing of the first Apple Store; the Israeli Defense Force shooting and killing an American journalist; and the Michigan Supreme Court on Tuesday unanimously blocking the prosecution of the Republican ex-governor for poisoning the water of Flint, Michigan.
Stories like these shouldn’t be buried.

In this emergency podcast released just minutes after the Supreme Court ruled that women will be forced to give birth should they become pregnant, Michael Moore joins women’s groups in calling for nationwide protests in cities across the country — today, tonight and every day until full rights are restored to women.
On this day of infamy, Mike asks friend and podcaster Francesca Fiorentini to read the first feminist proclamation from 1791 — “Declaration of the Rights of Women” by Olympe de Gouges. It’s sickening how little has changed. For her treason against the patriarchy, de Gouges was beheaded. A thought that must make this Court smile.

Mon, 20 Jun 2022 - 46min - 244 - Ep. 244: Repeal the Second Amendment
The night of the Uvalde massacre, Michael gave his first televised response to a mass shooting in over a decade. And what he said was so powerful, and so truthful, it frightened Democrats who are afraid to go all the way to stop this madness. It frightened Republicans so much, one their craziest, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), took to the House floor this week to denounce Michael by name during the debate on possible new gun laws. What did he say? Just the same thing over a hundred million Americans were already thinking but nobody on TV was saying. So, he decided somebody had to speak the unspeakable, that which no red-blooded American is supposed to say.
On this episode of RUMBLE, he goes ahead and says it again. And then he begs you to say it, too.

Mon, 06 Jun 2022 - 28min - 242 - Ep. 242: I Know There's a Number
This week was another sick celebration of the American way. And all week Michael has been haunted by this unanswered question — What is the number?
Columbine wasn’t enough… Sandy Hook wasn’t enough… Parkland wasn’t enough… Will Robb Elementary be enough? How many dead children before America will rise up and scream “THAT’S IT! THAT IS ENOUGH”?
On this episode of Rumble, Michael shares the brutal, honest truth — we are a violent, armed country, founded in genocide and built on the backs of slaves. But as history shows us, if we can face who we are, we can become the country, and the people, we want to be.

Riding through the tidal waves of emboldened Archbishops who are weaponizing & politicizing communion, a new viral outbreak (monkeypox WTF?!) threatening public health, and the corporate greed behind the real story of why there’s no formula milk that is causing American babies to go hungry, plus Biden saying he’d send troops to Taiwan if China invaded when he knows no American parent will offer up their son or daughter to go and die for such a crazy idea, Michael has had it. But any day now, the Supreme Court is about to set off their time bomb against an entire gender. Tick… Tick… Tick… the sound grows deafening… are we ready to stand for our Democracy?

Mon, 16 May 2022 - 1h 02min - 239 - Ep. 239: A Handmaid's Country (feat. Cynthia Conti-Cook)
Last week we blinked and opened our eyes to a vision of a different world. A nightmare foretold is to become our future — a U.S. citizen who becomes pregnant can be stripped of their bodily autonomy and forced, by the U.S. government, to give birth. Attempt to abort the fetus, and you can be charged with murder. The idea of that reality is draconian and horrific.
But what most people don’t know is that we are already living in a reality that is much more sinister. Confide in a desperate text to your friend your fears of being pregnant, or simply Google the word “abortion” before having a miscarriage… and you can be charged with murder.
On this episode of Rumble, Michael is joined by Cynthia Conti-Cook, award-winning civil rights attorney and current Technology Fellow on the Ford Foundation’s Gender, Racial, and Ethnic Justice team. She is an expert on the expanding use of surveillance technologies and talks with Michael on the current and potential use of technology to criminalize people who seek or aid abortions.

Mon, 09 May 2022 - 1h 08min - 238 - Ep. 238: David Letterman & Me
Long before he first hosted “Late Night with David Letterman,” Michael was a fan of David Letterman's wicked humor that was often based on his total lack of respect for authority, pomposity, and those who make life miserable for the little guy. When it was announced Letterman would have a nightly show on NBC beginning on February 1, 1982, Michael made his way from Flint to New York to see if he could get a stand-by ticket to sit in the audience during Letterman's first week on the air. He succeeded. Letterman's guest that night? Filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola. Michael couldn’t believe his luck. At that time it would be another seven years before his first film, Roger & Me, would be released.
In this episode Michael talks about what he learned about satire from David Letterman while sitting and watching him from Flint. And how Letterman impacted Michael (without knowing it) and the film and TV work he would eventually do. This episode of Rumble is a personal peek behind how Michael grew to reach his own audience thanks in part to the inspiration Dave offered him.

On this provocative episode of Rumble with Michael Moore, Mike speaks the awful truth about how our environmental movement has failed us and why we must change course — and leadership — immediately. Planet Earth is fed up with us, and from climate to coronavirus, it sees no choice but to throw an extinction event. As a follow-up to Mike’s Substack letter last week — “At Earth Day’s End” — he raises the stakes again after sitting through one more Earth Day that offered no hope that we are going to get this right. So a new kind of battle must now be fought.

After well more than a week to reflect on the lessons of Oscar night, Michael praises a rare movie authentically set in the working class that won Best Picture — and he gives his take on the vicious assault on Chris Rock that was followed minutes later with his assailant getting a standing ovation and an Oscar.
In this episode, Michael also tells the story of the threat of violence he encountered backstage just moments after his Oscar speech in 2003.

Thu, 07 Apr 2022 - 35min - 234 - Ep. 234: Justice Jackson and the Putin That Is Us
It's another week of mind-dumbing drivel and tragedy, beginning with the Senate Republicans' racist mansplainin' and prop-making of the brilliant new nominee to the U.S. Supreme Court — where, in the near future, this white privileged performance art will not exist any longer. Make no mistake — that hearing wasn't a hearing. It was a dry run for the Republicans' staging of this November's midterms — running their candidates on the Q-anon agenda and honing their election-stealing plans to perfection.
Mike also shares his latest thoughts on how the war in Ukraine is "progressing" — and suggests Zelensky should switch the narrative regarding the hapless Russian army and surprise Putin by now conducting a Ukrainian invasion of Russia. It's what a true satirist president would do. And it would make Putin's head spin out of control just long enough for the generals and the oligarchs to stage their coup and end this madness.

Mon, 28 Mar 2022 - 57min - 233 - Ep. 233: Temptations of War
It's been three weeks since Putin invaded Ukraine. Three... long... weeks. Three weeks of an endless, looping news cycle. Change the channel — same story, different pundits. But behind the horrific videos of tanks blowing up cars and dead bodies in the streets, behind the escalating, heartbreaking stories of refugees fleeing in terror and American journalists being killed, Michael senses something more sinister is at play.
We, the American public, who never met a war we didn’t like, are being manipulated by other Americans who are trying to take us to war. Politicians, pundits, ex-Generals and corporate masters looking for greater profits. And no heartstring will be left unplayed until they have our ear and we the people are demanding blood.
The only thing for us to do is to fight back and make it clear — No Americans in Ukraine, no air war with Russia, no World War III.

Fri, 11 Mar 2022 - 1h 01min - 231 - Ep 231: Empire Down
Late Wednesday night —at least, late at night here in the states — Russia launched a full-fledged assault on Ukraine. Refugees have fled the country in droves, and Putin’s army has moved in on or around nearly every major city in a matter of 36 hours. It’s a nightmare scenario.
But there are those already beating the drum for the United States to “do more.” More? More of what? No, you don’t want us anywhere near this. The United States, which for the past half-century, has only made things worse every single place we have sent in the bomber jets or the troops who are about to die for all the wrong reasons. We can no longer claim the moral high ground (if we ever could), and after Iraq we’ve been sent to the time-out room to think about the misery we’ve caused this world.
So today on Rumble, Michael sifts through his thoughts on this crisis, and talk about why, above all else, and no matter what — the United States cannot involve itself in this war. Let the smart people find every way possible to crush Putin without firing a shot.

Thu, 03 Feb 2022 - 1h 03min - 228 - Ep 228: Gen U: Generation Union (feat. Jaz Brisack & Casey Moore of Starbucks Workers United)
There's a new hit item on the menu at Starbucks stores across the country: a signed union card. The workers at multiple Buffalo, NY-area Starbucks stores formed Starbucks Workers United this August, in response to dangerous COVID working conditions, unequal pay, and inadequate benefits. In less than half a year, they've managed to already unionize two Buffalo-area stores, in Elmwood and in Genesee, at a company notoriously aggressive in their anti-union tactics.
This is huge, a game-changing pair of victories — even in a year full of strikes and COVID walkouts. To hear the story of how these incredible Starbucks Workers United organized this victory, and how you can organize your workplace, Michael talked with the Starbucks workers Jaz Brisack & Casey Moore — or, as the Orwellian Starbucks PR calls them, “partners” — two young women who helped lead the organizing effort and succeeded in slaying the giant.
During the interview, Casey and Jaz encouraged Michael to cold-call the CEO of Starbucks. And when he does, someone in Nicaragua picks up the phone. A true Rumble moment.

Fri, 21 Jan 2022 - 1h 17min - 227 - Episode 227: 5G and Year Two of Joey B
It’s another one of those weeks: 5G gives you better reception but possible plane crashes, Biden trusts Trump’s Postmaster General to get us our COVID tests, and the Supreme Court blocks a federal mandate to get everyone vaccinated. Plus, the voting rights bill is on its death march.
We’re at the first anniversary of Biden’s presidency. Republicans are licking their chops. Cable news has written Biden’s obituary. They’re missing one thing - the majority of Americans don’t want a Republican anywhere near the White House. The majority want paid family leave, a living wage, free pre-K, free community college, police reform, and a serious fight to save planet Earth. And the majority wants Biden and the Dems to quit dinkin’ around and crush the party of the coup.

Thu, 20 Jan 2022 - 57min - 226 - Episode 226: "It's Still January 6th" (with Rep. Dan Kildee D-MI)
A year ago tomorrow, outgoing President Donald Trump gave an hour-long speech to a large crowd of his most ardent and agitated supporters, encouraging them to march down Pennsylvania Ave. to the Capitol and demand Congress "Stop the Steal" -- the "steal" in this case being the Congressional ratification of an election he lost fair and square, and an integral part of the peaceful transition of power. What followed was a violent attempted coup of the United States, one in which an essentially all-white mob stormed the Capitol building, threatening the lives of countless workers and staffers in the building, elected representatives from every state in the union, and even the Vice President who ran alongside Trump on his losing ticket.
This grim day of white terror was brought about by months of President Trump egging his supporters on with baseless claims of a fraudulent election, all while his own party worked tirelessly to continue to erode voting rights across the country. But unfortunately, this trend of white right-wing violence in America far predates Trump.
To try and make sense of all this a year later, Michael spoke with Rep. Dan Kildee of Michigan -- the US Congressional representative for Flint, and Michael's longtime close friend. A year ago, Rep. Kildee talked to Michael on Rumble in the immediate aftermath of the riots, after calling Michael from the Congressional floor during the insurrection -- with gunshots and rioting in the background.
Today, Michael & Rep. Kildee talk about what has changed in the past year, what hasn't, and what we can do to stop this from happening again. They also talk about how this experience has impacted both of them very personally, and unpack how right wing violence and voting rights are inseparable issues.

Just in time for the holidays, Mother Nature has given us her biggest pandemic surprise yet. Yes folks, Omicron is everywhere – and that includes right under your Christmas tree, as you get ready to gather with your grandparents and your unvaccinated baby nieces or nephews. To help you navigate the holidays, know a little more about how to stay safe while living with Omicron, and about what can be done in the fight for vaccine equality across the world, we're joined by returning Rumble guest Dr. Peter Hotez, Co-Director for the Texas Children's Hospital Center for Vaccine Development, and Dean for the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine.
Michael & Dr. Hotez talk about why we might be assuming a bit too much about Omicron being more "mild", whether healthcare workers and the vulnerable might need another booster, vaccine inequality across the world, and what the Biden administration – and you – can do about it.
