Progressive filmmaker and activist Michael Moore accused President Biden of ruining his legacy and leading America “right into World War III” in a scathing open letter to the president.
Moore, who told Biden last month he could leave the White House as “a hero” by ending aid to Israel and forgiving all student loan debt and medical debt, once again addressed Biden in a letter published to his Substack on Saturday. This time, Moore attacked Biden for not heeding his requests and going in the “opposite direction.”
“My suggestions were all about cementing your status as a ‘Great President’ — about shaping your legacy, making you an unforgettable figure in the pantheon of all 44 White men who’ve presided over this country before you (and also your former boss). You, on the other hand, seem to be trying to cement your legacy as a war monger — doubling down on some of your worst mistakes and worst impulses,” Moore wrote.Â
“So I’ll ask again, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?” he asked.

Moore said Biden was dragging America into foreign conflicts instead of “help[ing] the American people” during his final days in office, by authorizing the delivery of weapons to Ukraine, allowing Ukraine’s military to use U.S.-provided long-range missiles on targets inside Russian territory, and signing off on sending anti-personnel mines to Ukraine.Â
“LAND MINES, Joe? Seriously? THIS is your legacy? This is how you want to go out? In a blaze of horror? Like, if Joe’s gotta go, we all gotta go with him… right into World War III?” he fumed.
Moore also attacked the Biden administration for selling weapons to Israel and vetoing an United Nations Security Council draft resolution that demanded an “unconditional cease-fire” in Gaza.Â

“The only country speaking out in favor of more death and destruction was the one you and I are citizens of. This is your legacy, Joe?” Moore griped.
The filmmaker ended his screed by begging Biden to once again use the “power of the pen” and make “real and powerful change,” starting with passing the Equal Rights Amendment, or “ERA,” which would create a constitutional right to abortion.
Moore argued that the ERA would “finally” recognize women as “equal citizens and human beings” and should be the “law of the land.”
“You have the power to do this, Joe. You have the power to make this your legacy,” he pleaded. “So, Joe, I’m really telling you for the last time: JUST DO IT.”

Moore, who confidently predicted that Vice President Kamala Harris would win the election, previously lashed out at voters after President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.
“If you stop and think about it, we’ve come up with a lot of doozies in our history,” he wrote in a post on MichaelMoore.com. “Like the genocide of 20 million Native Americans. Or the enslavement of 12 million kidnapped Africans. Or us invading Vietnam and killing 4 million Asian people for no reason at all. We are not a good people.”Â
