Are You Ready?! Important Message from Meidas Founder

By Ben Meiselas

Hey, Meidas Mighty. I will keep this message short. Are you ready for 2026? Are you ready to fight? Are you ready to take back your country for yourself, for your family, for your friends, for all those who cherish democracy, and for future generations? Are you ready to continue rising to the challenges we all face so we can look our children and their children in the face and tell them when we were called into action to save our country from fascism, we met the challenge and we won’t back down?

This is the last week of 2025, and what a year it has been.

We started off the year with a strong country but with little hope, as the inauguration in January was fast approaching. Now we exit the year with a weak country but with lots of hope that Trump is collapsing, his cover-ups are being exposed, and his weakness is apparent for all to see. These are distressing and chaotic times, no doubt, but we can now peer into a horizon where there is a future world with no Trump, where we can get back to being Americans again and remove this orange stain of shame.

They threw the oligarchs at us. They threw DOGE at us. They invaded our cities and towns with the military. They covered up child sex trafficking rings. They stole our healthcare. They created wars across the world. They made things less affordable. They stole our housing. They promoted dehumanization and cruelty at every turn. They betrayed our allies. They made our soldiers get down on their knees and roll out a red carpet for Putin. They destroyed essential services in government. They created alligator-infested concentration camps. They promoted war crimes and mocked the corpses of the dead. They persecuted comedians. They scammed and stole and terrorized.

Yet they failed.

Yet they are losers.

Yet they have left the year weaker than ever.

They knew our institutions would break. But they never thought the people would hold the line. They thought everyone would fall in line and behave like zombified weirdos like MAGA Mike Johnson and Jim Jordan and all those demented MAGA sycophants. The people were the heroes in 2025. The people will lead the way in 2026.

Don’t be scared. Look what we’ve done together in 2025 against all odds. Heck, we rebuilt the freakin’ news media together after corporate news capitulated. We built national and international alliances to fight for democracy. And our movement is only getting stronger.

So I ask you, are you ready? If you need a brief rest before the New Year, take it. But when this next year starts, we will make 2026 the year of democracy. 2025 was the appetizer of what people power can accomplish. 2026 will be the main course. Let’s reclaim our democracy and perhaps enjoy the just desserts thereafter—the taste of accountability. We will win. We must win. And we will always do it together!
