When the escalator at the United Nations came to a sudden stop this past Tuesday as soon as Trump stepped on it, I would like to believe that future historians will record that as the pivotal, split-second moment which marked the beginning of the end of the Trump Reign of Terror.
Happy to see your post. It has been a long time. I hope you are well and spending your time in fulfilling ways.
I look forward to Humpty Dumpty and his dumpster cabinet having a great fall. May the shards that are left be strewn to oblivion save for being correctly recorded for history.
Michael, I'd love to know what you as a truth speaker believe about the possibility that Trump stole the election. I'm sure you've seen Election Truth, Alliance, and Smart Elections efforts in Rockland, NY (and also other places.)
Everyone, I know personally thinks this. Yet, no one's publicly talking about it and it's driving me crazy. (Are politicians concerned about us losing our confidence in the electoral process?)
For me, it is obvious as the nose on my face. Has Trump ever gotten anything without stealing it?
Thank you, Michael, for the cherry thought; first I've felt in a long time. And I'll be marching on October 18th, but do wonder why the protests are so far apart. We should be building up to a general nationwide strike now, before he gets even more powerful.
It takes a lot to create a gigantic protest like Oct. 18. Once we get to 12 million protesters we can talk about a general strike. We're not there....yet.
I hear you but I am frustrated by the lack of leadership from all corners, Democrat, Republican, and even Independent. I can't fathom why someone with position and charisma hasn't tried to whip up a counter to this insanity. Why are hundreds of men being tortured in a hellhole in El Salvador when none have been indicted or tried for any crimes? And that is happening since March because our government wished it and paid for it with our tax money. And same with the not quite identified "terrorists" in boats being blown up by our military. Again, no indictment, no evidence, no attack on our ships; in fact, that first boat was turning around. I thought Project 2025 was a horrific return to some biblical pre-Civil War South where white men rule supreme over everyone but now I see that was only Act One. These crazies have two more acts and I fear they're going to turn US into a Roman Circus with horrors we can't imagine. Why? Because they already have more money and power than God and they need something to make them feel more, more power, more control - so they're causing organized institutional top-down pain.
So glad to finally see you back Michael! Reading your post gives me hope that I am not alone in envisioning how an end to this lunatic reign can, and I believe, will play out. You eloquently summarized what so many of us have expressed (usually not so eloquently) as we curse out loud (at least I do) when hearing about Trump’s daily delusional, psychotic, narcissistic and just plain stupid behavior. We must protest, resist, dissent, and most of all hit his supporters where it makes the biggest impact - their pocketbooks!
Since July, I have been asking myself and anyone who would listen, "Where in the world is Michael Moore?" Now you've come back with a - BANG - talking about all the things going on in my mind, too. Welcome back and don't be a stranger! In fact, I am inviting you to our two state NO KINGS protest in Wheeling, WV, October 18th!
I like the metaphor and I’ve been thinking the same thing! (and he was so paranoid that he thought that someone had done it on purpose just to him).
We need the hope, we need inspiration, motivation, and ambition to aspire to reach a constitutionally representative government by the people that works for the people. And as you said there’s more work to be done to include more Americans in the story!
Ha ha, you know a thought just occurred to me, maybe it WAS done to him on purpose by someone at the UN, it could have been a way to send a message to him
What I don't understand is, once the escalator stopped, why didn't Melania and Donald just use the adjacent escalator, which was functioning perfectly will. Melania stopped and then walked up, followed by Donald, why didn't they use the one next to it? But, of course neither of them are very bright.
My heart skipped a beat and a big smile came across my face when I saw Michael Moore posted on Subtack . You are a leader Mr. Moore and your voice is missed. What a beautiful tale you just told ,it was one of hope and possibility and I am on your bus. I do have hope and though there have been many dark days since 11/15 I have never given up that good will prevail. We must stick together and become one voice so loud and clear that there is no mistake that we will not let them take our country our freedom is ur democracy. A country for one and all We the People!
Good to hear from you Mike - I was thinking you were going to ask the question, "what kind of world do you really want to live in, once the Trump criminal enterprise implodes?" And it is imploding. I'm encouraged that neighbors in Chicago, from all walks of life, have organized an aggressive "in your face" ICE watch. No whimper here, we're making noise!
My father was in Silicon valley in the seventies and early 80's working on some of the first personal computers, but never thought computers were a good idea for mass daily use, I think he considered computers more like a tool among many tools, like a copy machine in an office or library. I really feel this technology is not sustainable. The cooling towers are taking more and more of our precious water for this garbage AI. It is time to shut it down or at least slow it way down! Bring back a few paper (made of hemp and other plant fibers) file cabinets (made of recycled metal or found at the second hand store) and get back to communicating in person! And revive the printing press and the newspaper kids on the street corner! Our teens and citizens need to go back to hanging out together at coffee shops and hip independent movie theaters and not sitting alone on their phones. The UN needs to stop more than the escalator!

Welcome back! How greatly we have missed you. But your escalator down to escalator up sad saga of The Donald was worth the wait.
Missed you Michael!

There is that fairy plus the one that someone on his staff sabotagedthe Teleprompter too!
Theory not fairy!
Lol, well his non teleprompter speech was certainly unhinged. So, whatever the reason, it certainly showed that the emperor has no clothes.

So happy you are back. You have been missed.
Thanks, Michael, hope you are well and that is a great story! Inspiring!
