Ep. 310: Biden Must Save Biden From Himself. It's the Only Way to Ensure Trump Never Sets Foot in the Oval Office Again.

March 04, 2024 07:44 - 45 minutes - 84 MB

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.

Ep. 309: In Michigan Tuesday, We Ask the President to Listen to Michigan

February 26, 2024 07:34 - 1 hour - 116 MB

Stunned by his refusal to stop funding Netanyahu’s slaughter in Gaza with our tax dollars — an action that may return Trump to the Oval Office — thousands in Michigan who are demanding an immediate ceasefire, including the statewide teachers union, the United Auto Workers, the National Nurses Union and the union of flight attendants(!) plus many others on Tuesday will vote “Uncommitted” to help save Biden from himself… and save the rest of us from a 2nd Term Trump. As Michelle Goldberg wrote...

Ep. 306: A White Flag, a New Impeachment, and Me and Clinton outside the Port-O-John

December 19, 2023 01:36 - 49 minutes - 90 MB

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 ...

Ep. 301: Self Help For Frightened Liberals

September 11, 2023 03:55 - 22 minutes - 41.5 MB

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 lavend...

September 03, 2023 20:21 - 25 minutes - 47.5 MB

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 & M...

Ep. 299: GOP-RIP, Thank You Fani, Help/No help, for Maui, Traitors, T**** and the 14th Amendment

August 21, 2023 03:57 - 1 hour - 111 MB

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 ope...

Ep. 298: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM — INDICTED! RACKETEERING!! It Turns Out Trump Really Is a Mobster.

August 15, 2023 06:53 - 18 minutes - 34.3 MB

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 el...

Ep. 297: From Maui to Ohio, It’s a Wildfire of Immense Intensity

August 14, 2023 03:50 - 42 minutes - 77.4 MB

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 ...

July 31, 2023 03:55 - 1 hour - 118 MB

Twelve days after the passing of Tony Bennett, Michael Moore shares his encounters with this truly great American.

Ep. 294: The Scoundrel Court

July 06, 2023 03:39 - 1 hour - 167 MB

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 “r...

Ep. 291: Approval Ratings? Nobody Approves!

May 22, 2023 03:29 - 29 minutes - 53.7 MB

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 app...

Ep. 288: A Tale of Two Bills: How in just weeks, the majority of Americans have categorically ghosted the GOP

April 17, 2023 04:51 - 55 minutes - 102 MB

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, ...

Ep. 287: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM — Democracy Suspended in Tennessee

April 07, 2023 10:01 - 34 minutes - 63.6 MB

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 expel...

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. ...

Ep. 281: The Execution of Tyre Nichols: Another Cover-Up From The Lying Machine

February 05, 2023 21:24 - 1 hour - 62 MB

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 Rumbl...

Ep. 279: "Blue Dots in a Red Sea" Part 11: The Ballot Proposal. Yes, you can pass a law.

January 10, 2023 01:37 - 26 minutes - 24 MB

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.

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.

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.
