Summary
Stunned by his refusal to stop funding Netanyahu’s slaughter in Gaza with our tax dollars — an action that may return Trump to the Oval Office — thousands in Michigan who are demanding an immediate ceasefire, including the statewide teachers union, the United Auto Workers, the National Nurses Union and the union of flight attendants(!) plus many others on Tuesday will vote “Uncommitted” to help save Biden from himself… and save the rest of us from a 2nd Term Trump. As Michelle Goldberg wrote in the Times on Friday, "Biden is in danger of losing Michigan and, with it, the whole election."

| 0:00.0 | The people want peace. That is thoroughly and utterly clear. They have seen enough since October 7th when Hamas militants invaded Israel from Gaza and murdered over a thousand people. |
| 0:45.5 | It was a terrible day and of course there was no one there to help the people who live in the Cabotz here on the Gazan border. |
| 0:58.8 | I have people I know, friends who live in a cabibbutzer too and Israel, especially the ones down there by Gaza. You have to understand the people that live there generally the past majority of them are they believe in peace |
| 1:07.6 | They believe in human rights |
| 1:10.1 | They hate Netanyahu. They didn't vote for him. They don't want to vote for him. They want him out of there just like over 80% of Israel wants him out of there. |
| 1:22.0 | And yet, because he's a butcher, he's not going anywhere. |
| 1:29.7 | And because we hand him all the tools that a butcher needs to slaughter what will probably |
| 1:38.3 | by the morning be now over 30,000 people, Palestinians, civilians, two-thirds of them, children, women, a lot more who are older, elderly people. |
| 1:57.8 | And the IDF, the Nen Yahoo cabinetahu cabinet, the war cabinet, they don't give a rats ass who dies just as |
| 2:09.5 | long as they're Palestinians because you know they're guilty because a few hundred of their |

| 2:31.3 | race to kill the people they see as their captors, |
| 2:36.2 | their jailers, the people that have kept them |
| 2:38.4 | in this open-air prison for 14, 15, 16 years. |
| 2:47.2 | And it just continues every single day |
| 2:51.8 | and we fund it, we Americans fund this and Joe Biden. President Biden. You are the topic |
| 3:01.8 | of discussion today again on my podcast |
| 3:04.4 | Rumble with Michael Moore and I don't know if I mentioned this at the beginning. |
| 3:10.6 | I am Michael Moore and I voted for you Mr. Biden. I'm probably as I've mentioned |
| 3:21.2 | before one of the few people listening to this |
| 3:23.5 | podcast right now that has been to Gaza in person, been to Palestine, the West Bank, |
| 3:39.7 | had Israeli soldiers firing weapons at me and the other journalists who were there to see what was going on and report what was going on. This first trip was back. 39 years ago. 39 years ago I was there and I saw the truth. |
