Mail Bomb Suspect Footage Was Cut From 'Fahrenheit 11/9'
It would appear that Michael Moore's most recent documentary film Fahrenheit 11/9 contained footage of the suspected pipe bomb mailer Cesar Sayoc.
Sayoc is appearing in court later this week on charges of allegedly sending upwards of 14 pipe bombs through the mail to promenant Democrats, as well as the CNN offices. There was an additional package addressed to the cable news network this morning (Monday, October 29th), in fact.
Moore revealed in a post on his website that Sayoc was included in a scene cut from Fahrenheit 11/9. The footage is from President Trump's first Florida "Re-Election 2020" rally, and Moore said:
Our footage of Mr. Sayoc would never make it into the final cut of what would be the film that is now in its last week in cinemas across America. But I'd like to share it with you, if only to give you a momentary glimpse of him in action (all are free to use this video and share it).
You've seen the photos of him on the news over the past couple days– a slight, normal, everyday American. But those are from before. Here with our footage I can show you what he had actually become — overdosed on steroids in what looks like some desperate attempt to hang on to what was left of his manhood. Men, people like Cesar have been led to believe, were and are under attack by the likes of Hillary and Michelle and all those "feminazis" who've had but one mission: political castration. The theft of power from the patriarchy that had been in place for 10,000 years. The end of men.
Here in this outtake from "Fahrenheit 11/9" is 3 minutes and 38 seconds of raw, unedited footage — and you can see what Sayoc had become by early 2017, his body grossly deformed into what he thought a man should be, muscles the size of basketballs, he's wearing a sleeveless white T-shirt, holding a big anti-CNN sign and, along with his fellow Trumpsters, is yelling at the journalists who had gathered in the media pen. You'll see him two or three times, each for a few seconds, but if you pause on him you will also see something profound. Underneath his threatening Hulk-like exterior, there is fear in his eyes and, for a quick moment, you can see he is already gone, a lost dog with no direction home.
