Moviemaker and social activist Michael Moore is no fan of the president, and after the news of the latest NSA leak, he launched a portal on his website called Trumpileaks. This will be a safe space for whistleblowers to share information about “crimes, lies and general misconduct committed by Donald J. Trump,” according to Moore. On the website, he encourages employees in government, law enforcement, or the private sector to “blow the whistle in the name of protecting the United States of America from tyranny.” Moore is also venting his discontent with the president by making a documentary about the election and will star in a Trump-inspired Broadway show. People seem to have mixed feelings about Trumpileaks, and the project has been both criticized and praised.

I’m not a big Michael Moore fan and indeed, I’m still irked with him over his misogyny toward Hillary. BUT I’m glad he’s doing this: https://t.co/viRmPIPTe0
