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:

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?

NBC President Says Ronan Farrow’s New Book ‘Motivated Not By Pursuit Of Truth, But An Axe To Grind’
NBC News President Noah Oppenheim is not exactly what you’d call a fan of Ronan Farrow’s new book, “Catch and Kill,” calling it an “effort to defame” the network, one which is “clearly motivated not by a pursuit of truth, but an axe to grind.” Those comments were part of an email that was sent out by Oppenheim to all of the employees of the NBC News network on Monday morning. Check out the details from Fox News: The lengthy memo obtained by Fox News rejects Farrow’s reporting that suggests NBC wasn’t truthful regarding knowledge of alleged sexual misconduct by former “Today” co-host Matt Lauer, and that the network refused to expose Harvey Weinstein as a sexual predator because he leveraged information regarding Lauer. “Now that we’ve read Farrow’s book, it’s clear – his smear rests on the allegation that NBC’s management knew about and took steps to hide Matt Lauer’s misconduct before his firing in November of 2017. Without that, he has no basis on which to rest his second conspiracy theory — that his Harvey Weinstein reporting was squashed to protect Lauer,” Oppenheim wrote to staffers. Oppenheim and NBC News chairman Andy Lack have been accused of a “massive breach of journalistic integrity” by Farrow’s former NBC News producer Rich McHugh. Farrow has long claimed that NBC News stopped his reporting in an attempt to essentially cover for Weinstein. The situation has been a public relations nightmare for NBC and Oppenheim’s memo to staffers is the latest attempt to discredit “Catch and Kill” before its Tuesday release. The highly anticipated book details Farrow’s side of the story and the Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter has already caused NBC executives to release statements and hold staffer sit-downs prior to its official release on Tuesday. Oppenheim went on to write in his…
Residents of the city of Providence woke up this morning to find that a statue of famous explorer Christopher Columbus had been vandalized by individuals who aren’t exactly fans of the historical figure. The statue was covered in red paint and featured a sign that read, “Stop celebrating genocide.” The word “genocide” was scrawled on the back of the statue in orange paint. Check out the details from the Washington Examiner: The vandalism marked Columbus Day, a federal holiday commemorating the explorer’s arrival in the Americas in 1492. Columbus Day has grown contentious in recent decades after activists began pushing to change the day to Indigenous Peoples Day. The Indigenous Peoples Day movement sprung up around the 1992 quincentenary celebration of Columbus’s first voyage to the New World when scholarship of the Italian explorer was growing. The movement gained traction around the idea that Columbus sparked centuries of mass killings against Native Americans. Columbus’ voyage to the New World, at that time unknown to Europe, marked the beginning of centuries of mass immigration from Europe to the Americas. The explorer completed four voyages from Europe to the New World and earned the title “Admiral of the Ocean Sea” before his death in 1506. Columbus Day, and Christopher Columbus himself have become controversial in an era where political correctness, infecting the halls of higher education, have convinced young people that Columbus is a villain rather than the hero he’s been celebrated as being for hundreds of years.
