    Ep. 291: Approval Ratings? Nobody Approves!

    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."

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

    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.

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

    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.

Love it. Drop it on them.

You really got me

Wow, if only wishes came true! Well I guess if we don’t put it out there, there’s little chance of it happening. (Fox News closing up shop). My birthday wishes for you are that you never lose your keen intuition and your God given Irish sense of humor.
Happy Birthday, Mike!

Thank you

I have thought the same of republicans since Eisenhower.
I am 76. My lifetime has been the stench of the gop.
