Ep. 155: Rick Snyder's Crimes Against Humanity (feat. Jordan Chariton)
After more than six years of no accountability for former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder for his actions leading to the poisoning of the city of Flint, Snyder was arraigned on Wednesday for two counts of willful neglect of duty. He is the first of Michigan’s 49 governors in 184 years to face charges related to their time in office. If convicted, he could face up to one year in jail and up to $1,000 in fines. Snyder is among nine senior officials who are facing a total of 42 criminal charges for their actions that caused a deadly Legionnaires’ disease outbreak in Genesee County, and caused permanent, irreversible brain damage due to lead poisoning to thousands of Flint children. Michael is joined by investigative journalist Jordan Chariton who had doggedly reported on the plight of the people of Flint and the wide-ranging cover-up by Snyder and his henchman. They discuss why it's taken this long for any sort of legal action to be taken against Snyder, why his misdemeanor charge is not enough, and what we must do now.

Ep. 154: How To Stop The Coup Klux Klan (feat. Daryl Johnson)
They knew. The government knew and law enforcement knew that what took place on January 6th, 2021 was not an isolated incident or a total surprise. Not only were right-wing organizations, led by Donald Trump, planning this attack out in the open, but as far back as 2009 a Department of Homeland Security threat assessment warned of the growing right-wing domestic terror threat within America. Rather than heed the warning, the author of the post was attacked by the right-wing, the Obama administration was forced to retract the report, and everyone who worked on it was eventually out of their jobs. The author of the report was a former DHS analyst named Daryl Johnson, who joins Michael to discuss the rising terror threat from within, why it won't end anytime soon, how Trump "poured fuel on an already burning fire," and what we all must do to defend ourselves and protect humanity. Plus, Mike shares his thoughts on Impeachment Day #2, the awful press conference held by the Department of Justice and FBI, and the long overdue news that charges will soon be filed against former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and his associates for the poisoning of the water and the children of Flint, Michigan. Daryl Johnson: I warned of right-wing violence in 2009. Republicans objected. I was right. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/posteverything/wp/2017/08/21/i-warned-of-right-wing-violence-in-2009-it-caused-an-uproar-i-was-right/?

EP. 153: RUMBLE LIVE - The Terrorist Attack Is NOT Over
Many of the attackers are still in D.C. They were aided and abetted by certain members of the police, military and Republican party. And Wednesday's terror attack was just a dry run for what they are planning next. Michael Moore shares his latest, urgent thoughts on the terror attack that occurred this week and the one we must prepare for. This episode was first recorded as a Facebook Live.

Ep. 152: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM - "We Were Sitting Ducks" (feat. Congressman Dan Kildee, D-Flint)
Flint, Michigan Democratic Congressman Dan Kildee has been friends with Michael Moore since they were both teenagers. Throughout the terrorist attack on the Capitol yesterday, he was in frequent contact with Michael about what was transpiring. He joins Michael on Rumble to describe how it felt to not know if he would live or die as he was trapped inside the House chamber, why Members of Congress told family and staff to not show up at the Capitol yesterday, how law enforcement failed to protect them, and why Trump must be removed so he doesn't do more damage in his final 13 days in office. Rep. Kildee also described walking through the damaged and ransacked Capitol building, his disgust with his House and Senate colleagues for aiding and abetting the terror attack, and how white men with American and Confederate flags can literally get away with treason. "I just felt that we were fucked. We were sitting ducks." - Rep. Kildee Here's the video Rep. Kildee filmed from the House Gallery during the terror attack: https://twitter.com/MMFlint/status/1346986292891045889?s=20 Follow Michael on social media for real-time updates: Twitter: https://twitter.com/MMFlint Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mmflint/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michaelfmoore/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rumble-with-michael-moore/message

EP. 151: EMERGENCY PODCAST SYSTEM - The Trump Coup
Michael Moore was in personal contact for five hours during this terrorist siege with Congressman Dan Kildee of Flint, Michigan, who was among the 30 members who stayed inside the House chamber as it was stormed by the armed mob. He shares this first-hand account as the Members hit the floor in fear of their lives. Shots were fired. A woman died. We need to deal with these traitors in the most aggressive way so that this never happens again. And their traitorous leader, Donald J. Trump, MUST be arrested tonight. No excuses. NO mercy.

Ep. 150: The Godfather Don Trumpleone
Our SECOND SEASON of RUMBLE begins today! Donald Trump is a thug, a gangster, and a menace to society. His latest crime might be his most shameless: on a call with Georgia's Secretary of State this Saturday, Trump pushed, threatened, cajoled, and begged the State of Georgia to give him more than 11,000 votes in order to overtake Joe Biden in the State's election count in the hopes of overturning the election. In this episode of Rumble, Michael shares the full, raw, unedited hour long audio recording of Trump, along with his Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and two lawyers, using mafia boss-tactics on his call with Brad Raffensperger, Georgia’s secretary of state, and his office’s general counsel, Ryan Germany. This all occurs on the eve of Georgia's two Senate special elections, which will determine the balance of power in the United States Senate, and whether the Biden administration will stand any chance of accomplishing anything in office.

Ep. 149: Best Christmas Bombing Ever!
Michael Moore discusses two of the most recent acts of terror in the United States: Anthony Q. Warner's suicide bombing in Nashville, Tennessee and Army Green Beret Duke Webb's shooting and killing of three people at a bowling alley in Rockford, Illinois. Mike also addresses the Wounded Knee Massacre which occurred 130 years ago today, part of America's genocide of the native inhabitants, and the beginning of a long line of violence which continues today.

On Christmas 2020, Michael Moore plays some of his favorite “Christmas” music as he recalls past Christmases, reads a Christmas Eve letter from a friend, and offers solace to those struggling during this holiday season.

Ep. 146: No Coup For You! (feat. Ruth Ben-Ghiat)
As Donald Trump's attempts to steal the election in the courts continue to falter, and as his legal team humiliates themselves at every turn, are we becoming too content in laughing it off and too comfortable in thinking our institutions are now stable? Historian and author Ruth Ben-Ghiat appeared in Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 11/9" to help warn of the fascist threat posed by Trump, and she joins Michael now to share her most recent ideas about the danger we are currently in and how leaders like Trump help us become our worst selves. She's written a new book looking back at fascists from Mussolini to the present day and finds many similarities between these leaders' use of propaganda, their endorsements of violence, and their projection of virility and masculinity to appeal to male and female supporters alike.

Ep. 145: Only In The Darkness Can You See The Stars (feat. Marc Lamont Hill)
The year 2020 has featured a series of monumental events: a once-in-a-century pandemic, historic protests in the aftermath of more police killings of Black Americans and a Donald Trump presidency and re-election campaign. In this time of massive unrest, despair, and darkness, might we be on the verge of something profound, positive and hopeful? Marc Lamont Hill is a scholar, author and activist, and he joins Michael to discuss the necessity and possibility for radical change in America, Marc's bout with COVID-19, and his unceremonious firing from CNN for daring to speak out for Palestinian human rights. Read Marc Lamont Hill's books: "We Still Here: Pandemic, Policing, Protest, and Possibility" https://bookshop.org/a/1381/9781642594539 You can pre-order his upcoming book, "Except for Palestine: The Limits of Progressive Politics" https://bookshop.org/a/1381/9781620975923 Listen to Marc's podcast "Coffee and Books" https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-and-books/id1522592619 Visit Marc's Bookstore in Philadelphia "Uncle Bobbie's" https://www.unclebobbies.com/ GEORGIA!

Ep. 144: Cinema Saves The World
Warner Bros. (which is now owned by AT&T, which also owns CNN, HBO, the Turner Networks, etc.) announced this week that all of it's 2021 films will be streamed immediately on it's new HBO Max streaming platform, bypassing the usual "window" that movie theaters get to run films first. While streaming all films is obviously necessary during the pandemic, this move is rightfully being interpreted as a death blow to movie theaters that movie studios (particularly ones owned by wireless phones companies) have been inevitably heading towards regardless of COVID-19. What is AT&T/Warner Bros. trying to accomplish with this move? What might it mean for the future of our streaming bills (and internet bills and phones bills)? And what does this mean for the future of movies? Michael Moore, whose debut film "Roger & Me" was distributed by Warner Bros. in 1989, and who runs two non-profit movie theaters in Traverse City, Michigan, shares his thoughts on this latest blow to the art of cinema.

Ep. 143: What's The Matter With Populism? (feat. Thomas Frank)
Thomas Frank is a historian and author behind classic books such as "What's that Matter With Kansas?" and "Listen, Liberal." His work has exposed the cynicism and corruption behind the conservative movement and Republican party, the cataclysmic failures of the liberal establishment and the Democratic party, along with the corporate elite that they all serve. He joins Michael to discuss the necessary defeat of Trump, what to expect from the Democrats, and how our only hope for real, positive change is through mass, democratic, citizen-led movements and not through the current political system or the Democratic party. The people must lead the politicians, not the other way around. Recent Thomas Frank articles: Ding-dong, the jerk is gone.

Ep. 142: An Appeal From Michael Moore To MAGA Nation -- "I Don't Want You To Die"
Michael Moore extends a hand to the 73 million Americans who voted for four more years of Donald Trump with a simple, heartfelt message - "I don't want you to die." As the COVID-19 pandemic rages and reaches its most deadly period, and with a vaccine on the horizon, Mike begs those who disagree with him politically to literally live to fight another day. Please don't become another COVID statistic. Don't give up. Don't give in. Let's unite behind ending this pandemic so we can go back to fighting each other (non-violently) in the battle of ideas.

Ep. 141: Make America California Again! (w/ Rep. Ro Khanna)
If Democrats are able to win the two Senate races in Georgia on January 5th, they will have control over the Presidency, the House and the Senate after Joe Biden is sworn in on January 20th. What can America accomplish with unified Democratic control of the Executive and Legislative branches in Washington? To get a picture of what that can look like, America can look to California for inspiration. California congressman Ro Khanna joins Michael to first explain what progressive, positive change has become reality in California due to Democrats controlling all levers of power in the state for the past several years. Then, they discuss what Democrats can get done in Washington if Democrats are able to take control of the Senate after the special elections in Georgia. GEORGIA Special Election Is On January 5th!

Ep. 140: Action Is the Antidote To Despair (feat. "Planet of the Humans" Filmmakers Jeff Gibbs & Ozzie Zehner)
In the aftermath of Max Blumenthal's explosive investigative piece about the green billionaires and their allies who tried to suppress "Planet of the Humans," Michael Moore welcomes back director Jeff Gibbs and producer Ozzie Zehner for their first reactions to this bombshell report. They also discuss why we have been unable to cut our reliance on fossil fuels, how economic growth is killing us, and why climate change is a negative symptom of a larger environmental crisis that we've been failing to address with a holistic approach due to our society's addiction to the profit motive. Additionally, they discuss how a Biden administration should address our planetary emergency, how to improve and expand upon the current Green New Deals that have been proposed and why growth, consumption and capitalism are at the heart of the “climate” problem.
