Here’s a couple new yard signs we made up today:
Feel free to share. Thanks to the hundreds who've sent me your homemade yard signs. I’ll post them soon!
Thank you to all who contacted the Harris campaign this past week encouraging her to pick Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate! She had a good list to pick from. He was the best. If you saw his first speech as the VP candidate on Tuesday night, you know just how lucky we all are.
My favorite moments:
-
Walz saying that when it comes to controlling women and their bodies, the government and the Trumpsters need to follow the new Golden Rule: “Mind your own damn business!”
-
Harris telling us how Walz, when he was a public high school teacher and football coach, offered to be the faculty advisor to a new student group — the Gay-Straight Alliance Club — so the gay students had “a safe place” to meet.
-
Walz pointing out that crime was up under Donald Trump and — “that's not even counting the crimes he [Trump] committed!”
The rally was a true joy to watch. Here’s the link.
All day today it’s been more of the same with big crowds in Wisconsin and Michigan for Harris and Walz.
Check your email in the morning tomorrow (Thursday). I’m sending you something that should help the effort! Enjoy!
— Mike

** In order to have a troll-free, hate-free comments section — and because if there’s one thing I know about my crazy haters, they would rather spend an eternity in hell with Marjorie Taylor Greene than send me $5 if forced to become a paid subscriber — my Comments section here on my Substack is limited to paid subscribers. But, not to worry — anyone can send me their comments, opinions and thoughts by writing to me at mike@michaelmoore.com. I read every one of them, though obviously I can’t respond to all. The solution here is not optimal but it has worked and my Comments section has become a great meeting place for people wanting to discuss the ideas and issues I raise here. There is debate and disagreement, but it is refreshing to have it done with respect and civility, unfettered by the stench of bigotry and Q-anon insanity.
