Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Michael Moore: Prosecute Bush Officials for Iraq War

HeadlineMar 20, 2013

Appearing on CNN to discuss the Iraq War’s 10th anniversary, the filmmaker Michael Moore called for the arrest and prosecution of former President George W. Bush, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and other top officials in their administration.

Michael Moore: “He’s a war criminal, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t understand why he, Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz are still walking the streets. The fact that no one has paid for this, for this criminal act, that — why would an American, such as George W. Bush, send thousands of Americans off to their deaths? For what reason? And why doesn’t he have to answer for that?”
