Michael Moore Posts July4th Tweet Hoping to Stir Trump ‘Resistance.’ Here’s What Happened Instead

Notorious liberal “filmmaker” Michael Moore was true to his radical roots this Fourth of July, opting to hit up Twitter and drop a tweet designed to stir up the resistance against President Donald Trump, but it doesn’t seem his brief message had the desired effect he was going for.

Instead of gathering his like-minded band of merry left-wing trolls, folks who actually value freedom and understand what the Fourth is really about came out to give Moore a valuable lesson he’d do well not to forget.

Sometimes, just sometimes, Twitter is awesome.

In a tweet that makes less sense the longer you ponder it, Moore did the thing that the Left supposedly hates: he “appropriated” Independence Day by doing a little revisionist history and rebranding it for the #Resistance:

Happy Resistance Day!
The revolt continues, some 242 years later.
C’mon, people! Let’s finish this!

Happy Resistance Day!
The revolt continues, some 242 years later.
C’mon, people! Let’s finish this!

While many of Moore’s fans seemed to understand the tortured analogy, the mocking responses, as noted by Twitchy, came fast and furious. A few highlights, including the first one out the gate:

Don't worry, with your party going full on Castro/Chavez, the Dems are finished.

Yeah, let's see how that works out in November. PLEASE double down again on Abolish Ice!

Are you actually encouraging an armed insurrection? Or secession?

What tyranny are you rebelling against exactly? I'm not entirely convinced you have any real idea of what you want.

You would have protested the founding fathers.

What does that even mean?

Seems pretty clear that Moore needs both a refresher course on the Constitution and one focusing on the unrevised truth of American history and our founding, because he’s got the facts a little mixed up in his head.

The whole point of our revolution, of our dissolving the bands of Great Britain’s rule over our nation was so that we could be a free people who governed themselves in the family unit without needing the government to stick their noses in all of our business. This way of thinking is the only way to keep government chained up and out of the way so our society can thrive.

It certainly wasn’t about the fight for expanded government, which is what the left seems to be under the delusion it means. No, it was about limited government and the free market, something Moore knows next to nothing about.

Maybe one day he’ll retire from the public square and find the truth for himself. We can hope, right?

You can tell a lot about a White House by the extracurricular nonsense that hits the press surrounding it.

For instance, after one of President Joe Biden’s dogs began biting random people on the grounds, we started hearing murmurs of just how terse and stressful the place had become, with dog behavior experts suggesting that the mood at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue might have a lot to do with the aggression.

This week, the Biden administration beget more bad behavior, but this time it wasn’t from one of the First Pets.

Two U.S. Secret Service agents in South Korea were sent stateside ahead of President Biden’s arrival following their involvement in an off-duty alcohol-related incident.

The two agents, whose identities have not been made public, are on their way back to Washington, D.C. where they will face disciplinary action, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News.

Both agents apparently became intoxicated while not on duty. One of the agents then got into an altercation with a cab driver.

There could be more trouble coming, as well.

In South Korea, officials send mediators to the scene of low-level disputes and then determine if criminal charges would be filed.

One of the agents was interviewed by authorities and no charges have been filed.

The government released one of its usual, dry, boilerplate-esque missives.

“The Secret Service is aware of an off-duty incident involving two employees which may constitute potential policy violations,” USSS chief spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told Fox News. “We have very strict protocols and policies for all employees and we hold ourselves to the highest professional standards.”

There is a history of poor behavior from the Secret Service during Democratic administrations, with a notable incident having occurred in 2012, involving Barack Obama’s agents and a Colombian prostitute.
