What if, when that escalator at the United Nations ground to a halt as soon as Trump stepped on it, THAT was the pivotal, split-second moment which marked the beginning of the end of the Trump Reign of Terror? A Terror that began — and ended — on an escalator…

My First Post-Trump Substack

When the escalator at the United Nations came to a sudden stop this past Tuesday as soon as Trump stepped on it, I would like to believe that future historians will record that as the pivotal, split-s...

Of Course He’s the Next Mayor!

In order to find the path to a better world and future, we must first be honest with ourselves about the true predicament we are in, acknowledging that we can’t get from Point A to Point B if we don’t even know where Point A is...

American Idiot(s)

There is an explanation to the madness we are witnessing — and, once again, the conscience of the country, the Pulitzer Prize winner Chris Hedges, tells us exactly what we don’t want to hear.

May 4th, 1970. Kent State University.

The war in Vietnam was a massacre. The students set up an encampment to protest this war crime against humanity. A genocide.

And the National Guard went in and mowed them down. 13 were shot. 4 were killed.

55 years ago...

Fifty years ago today, on April 30, 1975, Vietnam defeated the United States of America.

It’s called “The Vietnam War” — but the Vietnamese call it “The American War.” Because it was the Americans who invaded Vietnam to kill and dominate its people. www.michaelmoore.com/p/why-today-...

THE ENCAMPMENTS blew me away. This film completely transported me inside of the historic campus encampment movement last spring, right to the heart, a truly unprecedented look. If you can find a way to see it — DO IT! It's a MUST-SEE. @watermelonpictures.bsky.social #theencampments

I was utterly blown away by the Oscar-nominated doc SUGARCANE. A deeply personal look into the lasting generational effects of the atrocities committed by the Catholic Church against Indigenous children in their boarding schools, this POWERFUL and IMPORTANT film is a must see!

Michael Moore @mmflint.bsky.social · Feb 14

Oscar-nominated doc—NO OTHER LAND—is NOW IN THEATERS! The film follows friends Yuval, an Israeli journalist, & Basel, a Palestinian activist whose West Bank village has been fighting against their forced expulsion by the IDF. These voices need to be heard! Find tix here: nootherland.com/buy-tickets

This film made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective shows the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers and the alliance which develops between the Palestinian activist Basel and Israeli journalist Yuval.

Trump's fate, his downfall, and his doom is, as we speak, being set in stone.

None of Trump’s actions since January 20th have surprised me. He is the most “honest” President we’ve had in our lifetime. He has announced over and over what he was going to do should the American people let him back into the White House. He is transparency on steroids.
