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, I probe 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.

The other day on my podcast I read aloud 121 names of members of Congress, all of them Republicans. They each share two things: 1. On January 6, 2021, they all voted to illegally overturn the 2020 presidential election, effectively participating in an attempt to stage a coup, overthrow the U.S. government, prohibit Joe Biden from entering the White House & reinstall Donald J. Trump as an unelected president of the United States; and 2. On November 8, 2022, their actions to stage this coup & commit sedition were rewarded when the voters in their mostly gerrymandered districts returned them to a new term in Congress that begins two weeks from this Tuesday. And now, on January 3, 2023, all 121 of them will each put their hand on a Bible and, lying through their teeth (perfectly fixed & whitened, thanks to their free socialist Congressional health care), will “swear to protect & defend the Constitution of the U.S. against all enemies, foreign & domestic.” Does this strike anyone as a bit odd? Doesn’t it seem like if you tried to overthrow the gov’t you should no longer be allowed to be a part of it? That if you provided aid & comfort to those who ransacked Nancy Pelosi’s office and spray-painted “C**T” on her wall, or if you, as a member of Congress, stood and voted for sedition through legislative action (either to secede from the Union or to prevent an elected President from taking office), you are Constitutionally prohibited from taking your seat on January 3, 2023? Yes, that is exactly what the 14th Amendment of the Constitution says, ratified by both Houses of Congress AND three-quarters of all the states in the summer of 1868. 14TH AMENDMENT Section 3: Disqualification from Holding Office “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress who, having previously taken an oath as a member of Congress to support the Constitution, shall have [then] engaged in insurrection or rebellion or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof…” There are few clauses in our Constitution, though written & amended through more than two centuries, that could not be more clear and more relevant to the threat we face today… Continue reading at MichaelMoore.com

He has literally lied about everything. All that’s left is that, in the next 24hrs, we will learn that George Santos is not his name and that in fact George Santos doesn’t exist. This is the Republicans doing a nuclear test. They wanted to see, because they’ve gotten away with lying for so long, what if they ran a candidate that not only lied about everything all the time, but it turns out his actual existence was a lie? How many millions would believe that this was OK — as long as there was an “R” by his name on the ballot? When does Homeland Security declare them a terrorist organization?
Friends — 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. Please give a listen to this episode of my Rumble podcast! I provide a play-by-play review of this mad, insane day, 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 going to Democrat Hakeem Jeffries for 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. Listen at MichaelMoore.com. Enjoy! Please share. P.S. The Clown Show in Congress resumes today at 12pmET.

In spite of our Blue Wall midterm success, the truth is that dark clouds hang above us. The disgraced, fascistic ex-president still looms large despite his electoral losses. White supremacists are trying to blow up our electrical grid. Overseas, a group of current & ex-military personnel were caught planning a coup in Germany. And back here, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene promised the next Capitol insurrection will be armed & it will succeed. But most frightening, 128 U.S. Senators & House members who voted on Jan 6, 2021 to overturn the election, thus overthrowing the gov’t, will be re-sworn into Congress just 3 weeks from today. On this episode, I take a deep dive into our biggest terrorist threat — us. Specifically, the fact that 1 of our 2 major parties is led by hundreds of elected officials who still want to overthrow the gov’t by overturning the 2020 election AND suppressing the votes of Black Americans. I call these efforts an act of treason. Plus, the current (twice-impeached) leader of that party has now called for the “termination” of the U.S. Constitution—and demanded that he be installed as our unelected dictator. Madness! But it’s real. And on 1/3/23, 118 House members & 10 Senators—all of whom voted on the night of 1/6/21 to overturn the election—will be sworn into our 118th Congress. This sacred headquarters of our Democracy will house 128 traitors who tried to overthrow our gov’t. What are we to do about this? To help create & cement the historical record, I name the names of each one of these traitors. Please listen. Then pass it on to everyone you know. We mustn’t forget their names til every one of them is thrown out of office & held accountable for their actions. And each one of us must remain active, vigilant & ready to use every legal & nonviolent means to preserve our fragile Democracy. A good start? The DOJ should arrest the chief ringleader—or at the very least enforce the 14th Amendment which states that any citizen who has “engaged in insurrection” shall be permanently barred from ever holding any elective office again. Like it or not, it’s 1933 my friends. And this is the fork in the road. Listen at MichaelMoore.com
If there is one shining example of how we were all able to stop the much-predicted “red wave” of the Trump-backed Republicans winning the midterm elections in landslide fashion, the blue tsunami, the blue wall created by the voters in the state of Michigan must be recognized for what it did to help save our Democracy. In Michigan last month we had a record voter turnout for a midterm election. The voters created a full Democratic sweep of Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State AND BOTH the Michigan Senate and the Michigan House of Representatives. This completed a Democratic trifecta for the first time in Michigan in 40 years. In addition to this, the voters in Michigan will be sending a majority Congressional delegation to DC (7-6), also for the first time in many years. This is in addition to Michigan’s two Democratic U.S. Senators who continue to serve in the United States Congress. And, on top of all of this, we in Michigan on November 8th codified the absolute right to abortion INTO THE STATE CONSTITUTION. We also overwhelmingly passed two other ballot proposals enhancing voting rights and tracking the money politicians raise in our elections. Thousands of Michiganders worked hard for these victories, and millions of voters showed up — but there was one other linchpin that allowed for those red dominoes to fall. On this episode of Rumble, I share the one big, key thing Michigan did to overcome the red grip on our otherwise blue state, and what I believe other states — red or blue — can do, starting right now, to ensure that every voice is heard, every vote is counted, and Democracy is securely protected in their state from this point on.

Blue Dots in a Red Sea Ep. 3: 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 my special 12-day mini-podcast Tsunami series spreading my strategy of how we can turn red into blue across the country, I help you find the people who already agree with you but would never call themselves a Democrat. This is how we win. Listen at MichaelMoore.com and share.

Congress has officially entered into a “lame duck” session, but on today’s episode of Rumble, I discuss why, over the next 40 days, the Democrats have the opportunity to be anything but lame. Already, within 10 days of the Senate being called, the Democrats are poised to pass historic legislation — codifying same-sex and interracial marriage into federal law. Democrats and conscience-bearing Republicans: build on this momentum! Be brave! Keep passing legislation that will make the lives of millions of your fellow Americans better. And Senators, bring some of these bills that have already been passed by the House to a vote. Listen at MichaelMoore.com
Blue Dots in a Red Sea Ep. 2: You Are Not Alone. There Is Blue All Around. No matter how isolated you feel living in your conservative town, how lonely it seems in your Trumpster county, how appalling it is to be in your Republican state, the truth is you are surrounded by thousands of like-minded people who voted for Biden and who will fight for change. It just takes the effort of finding them and then acting together. Isn’t saving this country worth the try? In this episode of my special Rumble podcast series, “Blue Dots in a Red Sea,” I tell you how to find your fellow travelers and the beautiful havoc you can all raise together to stop the madness, the hatred and the bigotry you’ve been drowning in from Florida to Texas to Montana. Those days are about to end. Listen at MichaelMoore.com and share with others.
You and I and millions of others in our Blue Tsunami this fall stopped the predicted red wave — and now what’s left of the Republicans finds them in complete discombobulation. And the January 6th final report is every bit as damning as we thought it would be. Now it’s time to take on the next job the pundits will proclaim we will have no chance at accomplishing: Start turning some red states and counties BLUE! I say it can be done — I’ve done it personally! — and there are so many examples of flipping red to blue in last month’s midterms that we must keep this momentum going! On my podcast, I’ve launched a 12-day, mini-podcast miniseries “Blue Dots in a Red Sea: How to Win When You’re Blue in a Red State.” I started on Christmas day, and every day til Jan 6th I will show you practical strategies that will keep the Republicans off guard and unaware that we are in the process of pulling the literal rug right out from under them in the 2024 election. If you live in a red area — or have family or friends who do — you won’t want to miss this blueprint I’m laying out for us to win and bring an end to most of the right wing madness. Check out Episode 1 at MichaelMoore.com & share with others! No one will see this coming! More fun! More Blue!
I hope you all are safe and warm this Christmas Eve. On this episode of my podcast, by the twinkling lights of my Christmas tree, I recorded a message to you — reflecting on Santa’s visits as a child, asking President Biden to grant my Christmas wish and free Leonard Peltier, and sharing what happened when I was recently faced with the opportunity to “love my enemy.” Plus I announce my newest Blue Tsunami series! Starting tomorrow, on Christmas day, I will release 12 days of mini podcasts that will lay out how we can turn red parts of our country into blue. Listen, enjoy, and share at michaelmoore.com — Mike

Blue Dots in a Red Sea Ep. 5: “Need Help? Call the Democrats!” On this episode of my mission to turn Red into Blue, I offer 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. I believe 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.

Mike’s Midterm Tsunami Truth #44: 40 Days to Do a 2-Minute Drill for Democracy. The odds are long. A Hail Mary pass or two is needed. The opponent is badly bruised from a whoopin’ they took on November 8th. They are left with what will be an anemic majority in the House. But that’s not til January 3rd. Until then, we have 40 days where we hold the lead and possess the power. If we choose to use it strongly, wisely and with a touch of cooperation from a teeny-weeny group of Republicans who are fed up with being the villains, we have a chance to do some good. In an amazing turn of events, a bill passed by the House last year to codify the 2015 Supreme Court decision to make same-sex marriage legal, has been shepherded by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer through the Senate where he convinced 12 Republicans to pass the House bill to make same-sex marriage the law of the land. So I got to thinking — how many other House bills have been passed in this session of Congress and are just sitting in the Senate gathering dust waiting for a vote? Turns out a lot! Many will need 60 votes for them to pass thanks to the anti-Democracy Republicans who keep the filibuster going. But some can pass with the 51 votes the Dems already have. Why not spend these 40 days and either convince a few Republicans to come along like they did with the same-sex marriage act or we just go ahead and pass the ones we can pass with 51 votes. Even if we only get one of these enacted as law, it’ll be worth it… Continue reading at MichaelMoore.com
Blue Dots in a Red Sea Ep. 4: 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 my special series this week (and next) of mini podcasts — “Blue Dots in a Red Sea” — I lay 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 at MichaelMoore.com 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.
