Watch: Michael Moore Releases Unedited Footage of Alleged Bomb Suspect at a Trump Rally

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic filmmaker Michael Moore on Sunday released raw, unedited footage he captured for his latest film, “Fahrenheit 11/9.” Moore claims to have footage of the suspect behind the bombs sent to Democrats and CNN, Cesar Sayoc.

Moore detailed how he acquired the footage in a blog post on his website. He also took the time to place blame on Trump for Sayoc’s actions (emphasis mine):

My crew first encountered Cesar Sayoc, the mail bomber/terrorist, 20 months ago when we went down to Melbourne, Florida, to film Trump’s first “Trump 2020 Re-election Rally” — just one month after his inauguration. My direction to my producer Basel Hamdan and our longtime collaborator Eric Weinrib was to NOT film Trump, but rather only film the people who came out to see him. My feeling was, after one month in office, we didn’t need to hear anything more from Trump’s mouth — we already knew everything we needed to know about him.

Who we needed to understand were our fellow Americans, lost souls full of anger and possible violence, easily fed a pile of lies so large and toxic that we wondered if there would ever be a chance that we could bring them back from the Dark Side.

Our footage of Mr. Sayoc would never make it into the final cut of what would be the film that is now in its last week in cinemas across America. But I’d like to share it with you, if only to give you a momentary glimpse of him in action (all are free to use this video and share it).

Ha! Michael Moore’s Anti-Trump Film Is Tanking

/0 Comments/in , /by

Liberal activist filmmaker Michael Moore is trying to influence the 2018 midterms with his new films Fahrenheit 11/9. It’s anti-Trump. It’s Moore. It’s a story that’s billed as ‘how we got here and how we can get the hell out.’ He uses more colorful language, however:

Michael Moore has released an explosive poster for his new film Fahrenheit 11/9, opening Sept. 21.

According to the documentary’s official synopsis, “Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 11/9 is a provocative and comedic look at the times in which we live. It will explore the two most important questions of the Trump Era: How the f**k did we get here, and how the f**k do we get out? It’s the film to see before it’s too late.”

. . .

It’s a follow-up to his 2004 film Fahrenheit 9/11, which sought to influence that year’s presidential election as well. That film dissected, or what Moore thinks is dissection, the Bush administration and what was our military action and occupation of Iraq. It became the highest grossing documentary of all-time. But it did not have an impact on the 2004 election. Bush won—and thank God he did. . .

Fahrenheit 11/9 limped to an eighth-place finish in North America with $3.1 million from 1,719 theaters. Prerelease tracking had suggested at least $5 million to $6 million. Moore’s satirical anti-Trump film marks the first release from Tom Ortenberg’s new company, Briarcliff. (Ortenberg worked with Moore on Fahrenheit 9/11 while stationed at Lionsgate.)

Michael Moore Wishes Karl Marx a Happy 200th Birthday

/0 Comments/in , /by

Documentary filmmaker and A-list leftist, Michael Moore, took to Twitter Saturday to wish Karl Marx, the author of “The Communist Manifesto,” a happy 200th birthday, to thank the late 19th century thinker for his contributions, and to defend Marx against those who might seek to “distort” Marx’s legacy by pointing out that it’s resulted in the deaths of millions of people.

Seemingly unaware that he, himself, is a multi-millionaire and easily among the “super-rich” (at last count, during his divorce proceedings several years ago, Moore was the owner of at least eight separate homes in various parts of the world), Moore praised Marx for his denigration of the “super-wealthy.”

Then, comparing Marx to Jesus Christ, Moore claimed that Marx’s legacy was one of equality, and that the only reason Communism has killed millions is because “ruthless men” have distorted Marx’s sweet vision of equality. Real Communism, Moore seems to contend, has never truly existed.

Those European countries are able to provide “socialist” services because they partake in the global financial market, as does Moore, who has made millions doing a job — filmmaker — that simply doesn’t (and couldn’t) exist under a Marxist regime, since “artists” don’t contribute meaningfully to the means of production. At best, Moore would be a propaganda minister (though some might contend he already is one). (Read more from “Michael Moore Wishes Karl Marx a Happy 200th Birthday” HERE)

Michael Moore’s Anti-Trump Broadway Show Fails

/0 Comments/in , /by

Michael Moore’s politically-charged Broadway show failed to bring in the big bucks at the box office.

Moore’s “The Terms of My Surrender” brought in $4.2 million during its 13-week run, according to BroadwayWorld.com, but the site reports that’s less than half of what the play had the potential to make.

The show closed this last weekend.

The liberal documentary maker’s play focused on Moore’s life and criticism of President Trump.

In comparison, “The Glass Menagerie,” the play that ran at the same theater before Moore’s show, brought in $5.4 million with 85 performances. Moore’s show had a total of 83 performances. (Read more from “Michael Moore’s Anti-Trump Broadway Show Fails” HERE)

Michael Moore Says Trump Supporters ‘Not Racist’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Liberal political activist Michael Moore defended white Trump supporters Friday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, saying, “they’re not racist.”

“They twice voted for a man whose middle name is Hussein,” Moore said referring to Trump supporters. “That’s the America you live in.”

Moore’s comments were in response to Eddie Glaude Jr., chair of the Department of African American Studies at Princeton, after Glaude asserted that “at the heart of this country is some deep racial animus that animates the very communities that we’re trying to lift up.”

Moore continued:

Even though this country is only 12 percent black, the vast majority of this country, especially its young people — if you remember, it was really the only white demographic he won in ‘08 was 18 to 35-year-olds — they poured out in record numbers, they made that happen. But if you put people through another eight years where there’s no middle class jobs, they’re struggling to get by, the basic things like you said — the price of a box of cereal doubles. These are the things that are important to people because they are trying to get by, they’re living from paycheck to paycheck.

Though Moore has defended Trump supporters, and predicted that the Republican candidate would win, he has made it clear that he is not a fan. Yesterday he called Donald Trump an “illegitimate president” while touring Trump Tower in New York City, saying “the majority of people voted for Hillary Clinton.” He was referring to the fact that Trump won a majority of the Electoral College, which is what determines presidential elections, rather than the popular vote.

Moore also joined in on a social media trend comparing November 9, the day after the election, to September 11. The filmmaker tweeted “Fahrenheit 11/9,” a reference to his 2004 film Fahrenheit 9/11. (For more from the author of “Michael Moore Says Trump Supporters ‘Not Racist'” please click HERE)

Director Michael Moore Slams ‘American Sniper,’ Labels Chris Kyle as a ‘Coward’

/16 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: The Daily Caller By Derek Hunter. Leftist filmmaker Michael Moore is not a fan of “American Sniper.”

The biopic of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle directed by Clint Eastwood and staring Bradley Cooper is setting box office records, and the “Sicko” director is not too happy about that.

Taking to his Twitter account, Moore wrote, “My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren’t heroes. And invaders r worse.”

— Michael Moore (@MMFlint) January 18, 2015

Kyle, the most lethal sniper in military history, saved countless lives of American soldiers in his four tours of duty in Iraq. He was killed in February 2013 by a fellow soldier he was trying to help who was suffering from severe post-traumatic stress. (Read more from “Michael Moore Slams Chris Kyle as a ‘coward'” HERE)

Seth Rogen Says American Sniper is Just Like a Fake Nazi Propaganda Film

By Derek Hunter. Last month comedian Seth Rogen was the cause célèbre of Hollywood when terroristic threats caused Sony Pictures to cancel the release of his latest movie “The Interview.” Americans from across the political spectrum spoke out in favor of Rogen’s right to make any movie he wanted, and when it was released online, Americans supported the movie. Many may now regret that purchase.

American Sniper kind of reminds me of the movie that’s showing in the third act of Inglorious Basterds.

— Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) January 18, 2015

Rogen, like all Americans, was born with the right to say anything he wants, no matter how offensive. That’s why he was able to make a movie in which he kills the leader of North Korea. But that right is always under threat, to varying degrees, by outside forces. (Read more from this story HERE)

Michael Moore: Obama ‘A Huge Disappointment,’ Will Be Known As ‘First Black President’

/4 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: MEHDI TAAMALLAH / AFP / Getty ImagesAccording to left-wing documentarian Michael Moore, history will remember President Obama solely for the color of his skin.

Moore shared his frustrations in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter at the Toronto Film Festival, where he was celebrating the 25th anniversary of his first documentary, Roger & Me.

“When the history is written of this era, this is how [Obama will] be remembered: ‘He was the first black president.’ Okay, not a bad accomplishment, but that’s it. That’s it, Mr. Obama. A hundred years from now, ‘he was the first black American that got elected president,’ and that’s it.”

Michael Moore: General Motors ‘Criminals’ Deserve Death

Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore believes that whoever was responsible at General Motors for failing to recall a faulty ignition switch deserves death.

“I am opposed to the death penalty, but to every rule there is usually an exception, and in this case I hope the criminals at General Motors will be arrested and made to pay for their pre-meditated decision to take human lives for a lousy ten bucks,” he wrote.

Moore blamed former President George W. Bush’s Transportation Department for ignoring the problem in 2007 and praised new GM CEO Mary Barra for telling the truth about the problem.

“Only now, under the newly-configured GM — owned, essentially, by you and me from 2009 through last year — has the truth come out,” he wrote. “And my guess is that it has to do with the fact that a mother now runs General Motors.”

Michael Moore: ‘ObamaCare is Awful’

michael_mooreMichael Moore is not happy with ObamaCare.

The liberal documentary filmmaker marked the Jan. 1 launch of coverage under the Affordable Care Act with a scathing op-ed that declared: “ObamaCare is awful.”

This, he wrote in The New York Times, is the “dirty little secret many liberals have avoided saying out loud for fear of aiding the president’s enemies.”

Moore’s problems with the law, though, naturally are different than the complaints from Republican critics.

Filmmaker Michael Moore: ‘Guns don’t Kill People, Americans Kill People’

Photo Credit: APFilmmaker Michael Moore had a lot to say about guns to a paparazzo who caught up with him at LAX, the scene of a shooting last week that left a TSA worker dead.

“I think the NRA, they’ve got it half right when they say ‘guns don’t kill people, people kill people,’” he told the TMZ cameraman. “I change it to ‘guns don’t kill people, Americans kill people.’ Because we’re really the only ones that do it on this level, on this scale. Why?”

The cameraman asked Moore about his thoughts on the LAX shooting.

“Nothing changes. It’s the country we live in… Legally purchased gun, bullets. What are you going to do?” Moore said.
