We haven’t heard much from liberal blowhard Michael Moore lately, but he has found a way to work himself back into the news.
Moore has rewritten the American Pledge of Allegiance, in an effort to insult Trump supporters. He replaced nationalism with a focus on globalism and even managed to work in a reference to pie, something we imagine Moore likes to eat as often as possible.
You couldn’t make this up.

Michael Moore Floats Left-Wing Rewrite of Pledge of Allegiance Attacking ‘MAGA Heads’
Radical left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore thinks he has a better idea for the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance, one he says can unite progressives against the “MAGA heads” he despises.
Moore debuted his new pledge on his substack account where he claimed he was trying to “fight for the survival” of the country even as his ideas tear it down.
“For you. For me. For the people and for the country that deep down — in spite of its MAGA-heads, in spite of its insanity — we’ve decided to fight for its survival, holding onto a belief that we can make it better, that we can fix it, that we can end the madness and create a true Democracy for which it stands,” he wrote as an introduction to his new pledge.
This is Moore’s new pledge:
I pledge allegiance to the people of the United States of America. And to the democracy for which we all stand: One person, one vote, one nation, part of one world, everyone! A seat at the table! Everyone! A slice of the pie! With liberty and justice, equality, and kindness and the pursuit of happiness for all.
Law Professor Jonathan Turley commented on this at his blog:
As an initial matter, I fail to see how the nation is embodied by a run-on sentence that has more exclamation marks than a pre-teen’s text to bffs.
The call for unity is particularly curious from a person who has labeled Republicans as racists and consistently engaged in rage rhetoric. Among his prior unifying, “slice of the pie” declarations was that white people “are not good people” and are inherently dangerous.
The Moore pledge has all of the elements that would unify any gathering on Rodeo Drive. It replaces nationalism with globalism and introduces a pastry-based patriotism.
Moore is an idiot who craves attention. This dumb story should get him through a few days.
