I won’t do it. The TV is off. And last night, instead of Maddow and O’Donnell, I watched some mindless episode of Dateline. I just can’t hear the Orange Hitler’s hideous voice or see that hideous face. I am done. Can’t do it. Won’t do it. Him and his MAGA scum buckets have wasted too much of my LIFE and I’m not wasting another second on them.
And I rebuke each and everyone who bows their knee and is complicit. Let's remember the "Good Germans". I'm done with the MSM trying to be fair. Give me the news. Leave the opinions, polling and entertainment out! I'm truly pissed off!
I'm now at the point where I can spout by heart almost every Law & Order and NCIS script! That's what the MSM and MAGA have done to me. If I up my antidepressant, can I send the bill to trump? Ha!
Have been watching all of the Christmas movies on Hallmark, movies that I hate, every one of them, Every single one has exact same story line, even same stars. Same towns, streets, houses, gazebos,,gingerbread houses……… just need something as far from that man and everyone around him !! I do turn on Nichole Wallace and Lawrence ODonnell but that is alll I can take. I even had a full week of I had a full week of non stop Tachycardia and one trip to ER with Blood Pressure at 239/203. Many on social media have texted similar things. The shock, disbelief at discovering how many Americans will
Not see what is happening in this country. I am old, but so afraid for my children and grandchildren, and all of our grandchildren. Will not keep my head in the sand. After a break and recovery from heart problems I will contribute whatever I can for as long as I can to save our Democratic Republic. My grandfathers, my father, uncles, spouse, cousins fought in WWI, WWII, Viet Nam , some died, some stuck in mental hospitals, some committed suicide, I can’t let that be in vain. They saved Democracy for us, now it falls to us. A new Christmas Shiwnis beginning……
This has been the best decision I've made recently. I am able to keep abreast of what's going on but also able to ignore corporate msm and all of the faux outrage at what it is that they created.
If you stick with YouTube, make sure its algorithm does not decide you want all political content. You might get some Trump and some other Maga content.
Agreed. Beware of letting any machine curate your news. For that matter, beware of letting any person other than yourself curate your news. This requires investment of time. There is no alternative.
But everyone remember there's so much going on internationally. I watch BBC World News America, DW (out of Germany) , and keep an eye on the PBS News Hour - though the latter in particular tread too close to sanewashing for much of 2024; and too close is way too close.
Seriously people! I think we who are affected by Elon musk’s interference and incompetence using his money and A.I. to fool the country. How despicable!! 😠
WE THE PEOPLE! Should sue this guy who’s already the richest, from government contracts. That’s our tax dollars! 🤷🏻♀️
Intelligence and money do not elevate an evil man. While others have drooled over his "intelligence", I saw him as an egomaniac, vulgar and a certifiable AH!
The idea of “America vs. Elon Musk” highlights how much people are feeling left behind or manipulated in the face of his growing influence. At the very least, there should be stronger regulations to ensure public resources and technology aren’t being exploited for personal gain. It’s a complicated issue, but raising awareness and demanding transparency is definitely a step in the right
I completely understand the frustration—it does feel like there’s too much unchecked power and influence concentrated in the hands of a few, especially when public money plays a role in their success. The use of AI and social platforms to manipulate public opinion is deeply concerning, and it makes sense to call for accountability.
Seriously, if I knew how, I’d make an app that converts any mention or picture of Tiny Hands into a gif of a braying jackass, and substitutes a squealing pig for any appearance of Hilbilli Vanilli’s name or image. There could be plug-ins for other members of the Trump mob— Kristi Noem would be a puppy with a gun to its head, for example.
There is a browser extension available that replaces the name Trump with insult names. And you can also set it for other names such as Putin, Spicer, JDVance, etc. I have it installed on my laptop and am using the Firefox browser. It makes me laugh every time I see it. It is so helpful in keeping me sane. You can also install it on cell phone browsers. The name of the extension is Detrumpify, and it's on https://toolsofourtools.org/detrumpify-about
In the gay community, “bear” means something rather specific. So now I keep thinking of Donnie as a large, hairy gay man. It doesn’t make me dislike him any less, but it’s kind of funny, given how homophobic his cult is.
Actually, I'd love a new channel to come on board that just gives me the facts of what's happening out there, in the US and the world. No talking heads. No 24/7 opinions. Just the facts, ma'am, just the facts. The AP is part the way there. BBC is just ok, but trying. And PBS/NPR is sad and too much into "both sides ism". Can someone please come up with a new channel. I'd be happy to pay!!!
Yes, and we will be paying his cabinet members, every Republican MAGA , paying them to destroy us. Guess we pay for their lunches , served with $1000 dollar bottles of wine!!!!
First, I have no idea how any sane person can sit through 5 minutes and they are on for 4 HOURS!!!
We knew they were in the tank for Trump way back in 2016, they are not fooling us.
It felt like gut punch to hear, they not only did an interview, but they RAN TO HIM at MAL as Mica adoringly refers it, her favorite place to be.
We only have ourselves now!! All networks including NPR are straight Trump. We will rally around and support independent networks, like yours. I support Midas Touch, I love the work you all are doing.
The second hour is a reply of the first hour, and often Joe and/or Mika aren't there. I quit watching a long time ago when Mika started drooling over Joe and lost herself.
I watched their show until after the election. They immediately began normalizing the failed businessman, thief, rapist, TRAITOR to the USA so I stopped watching them. Their bowing to him is no surprise to me, but disgusting, never-the-less. More so, they are filthy rich so they don’t need their jobs. They just did it for their egos.
My heart is broken. We were big fans of Morning Joe. It is still very unclear as to WHY they thought they had to meet with him. The obvious is so that their show would not be canceled? Bewildered and so disappointed! WTF J&M!
Mika....went on the View in tears for womens rights........they need to ban/shun her from any future appearances..........she now supports a serial rapist, a cabinet full of pedophiles and sexual deviants.........will Morning Joe sit back and watch Mika get gangbanged in the oval office by the Trump cabinet???
I think NBC, their bosses, told them they had to and they didn't have the balls to refuse. And....Florida should not have been the venue. Should have been neutral turf if it was going to happen.
Until I saw this, Morning Joe was a show we watched. Now, it’s off the schedule permanently! We are just average, educated & informed members of the real world.
He did the same thing he accused Ms Lindsay, McCarthy, Cruz and others of doing so pardon us Joe for using our own brains to make a decision for ourselves that we learned individually happened to be the same as our brothers and sisters across America who stood and stand together for our democracy and our constitution!!!! He always insults us when we don't agree. We should have left his show years ago. Trump told his business about cheating on his wife with Mika. Lawdty Joe grow a spine!!!
I witnessed this live yesterday morning. When I heard them say they went to visit Trump in Florida I was furious. Who in the hell do they think they are? These are two individuals that are worth $45 million. They don’t need to grovel to anyone.
The last time I will watch this program was this morning because I wanted to see their response to all the pushback to their knee bending trip to Florida. I hear Joe insult their viewers. Don’t believe that they received all these congratulatory phone calls. BS.
This is their pathetic attempt to revive their morning show and remain relevant. Backfire.
Good luck descending into the trash heap of mainstream media. Maybe they can get a job at Fox.
Wow! So very well said!! Can’t believe how some people are Turncoats, where are their morals and standards? Don’t people in 🇺🇸get embarrassed by doing a 180* so publicly? They obviously have enough money - so why?
Well said and well put. Journalism is one thing but meeting up with Trump to kiss the ring is completely different.
Goodbye, Joe and Mika! You are no different from FOX.
It’s time to fold. Joe how do your music and Mika do over 50 stuff, you’ll be good we Americans on social media will take it from here.
Anyone know where I can purchase a “Trumpless”TV? 🤷🏻♀️
Oooo, if only someone made one!
They’d be rich! Seriously though, I need one so I don’t have to look at that horrific face and hear his disgusting voice
I won’t do it. The TV is off. And last night, instead of Maddow and O’Donnell, I watched some mindless episode of Dateline. I just can’t hear the Orange Hitler’s hideous voice or see that hideous face. I am done. Can’t do it. Won’t do it. Him and his MAGA scum buckets have wasted too much of my LIFE and I’m not wasting another second on them.
I cannot bear to watch the news anymore. I have switched to Substack as an alternative to TV/Cable media.
Me too
Exactly! I rebuke Donald Trump period. 🤷🏻♀️
And I rebuke each and everyone who bows their knee and is complicit. Let's remember the "Good Germans". I'm done with the MSM trying to be fair. Give me the news. Leave the opinions, polling and entertainment out! I'm truly pissed off!
Me too! I'm living on Netflix and old re-runs. I get my news here and skip any videos with the orange turd. 🤷🏼♂️
I couldn’t agree more! 🤷🏻♀️
I'm now at the point where I can spout by heart almost every Law & Order and NCIS script! That's what the MSM and MAGA have done to me. If I up my antidepressant, can I send the bill to trump? Ha!
Me too!!
I watched the Waltons last night-enough with the cesspool of news 😞😞
Have been watching all of the Christmas movies on Hallmark, movies that I hate, every one of them, Every single one has exact same story line, even same stars.

Stick with Substack and YouTube.

Absolutely!
And Bluesky....

It’s very difficult and nauseating 🤢
I have to mute and walk away, he's nauseating
Honestly, how do people watch that.?
So true
Seriously people! I think we who are affected by Elon musk’s interference and incompetence using his money and A.I. to fool the country. How despicable!! 😠

AMERICA Vs ELON MUSK
Intelligence and money do not elevate an evil man. While others have drooled over his "intelligence", I saw him as an egomaniac, vulgar and a certifiable AH!
This is a pretty good idea, I’m in!
Yes!

Agree, 100%. It is disgusting!

now there is a great Christmas gift!! I can't even get my echo show to stop showing me his repulsive face
I responded to an email for a "Trump Bear" with an expletive...
That remains to be seen however he’s under investigation for his involvement in our presidential election campaign. We have the receipts 🤷🏻♀️
In the gay community, “bear” means something rather specific. So now I keep thinking of Donnie as a large, hairy gay man. It doesn’t make me dislike him any less, but it’s kind of funny, given how homophobic his cult is.
Gary Cooper. Good to know, not my intention but appreciate the information...
Wow! Seriously? They came up with a modern name? Figures 🤷🏻♀️
A lot of men would love that 🤦🏻♀️
Not to mention everything they claim is tax deductible!! Having fun on our dime!! Make that dollars!! 🤷🏻♀️
Well she’s supposed to be in charge of homeland security? She can control the border? 😂
She’ll shoot everyone because they’re not behaving 🤷🏻♀️
America vs Elon Musk 🎇
Sue him for illegal election interference 🤷🏻♀️
At the risk of sounding like an election denier...I truly wonder if Musk had a hand in some type (or types) of nefarious covert operations.
Seriously ladies!! Do you remember the “STEPFORD WIVES” ? 😲
Now they call them “trad wives”, it’s the same thing.
Now it they are Handmaids

I'd be happy to pay!!!
Please share if you find one!
The most sickening about all this is we pay taxes so Trump can dismantle our country? Second is having to live under a dictatorship 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, and we will be paying his cabinet members, every Republican MAGA , paying them to destroy us. Guess we pay for their lunches , served with $1000 dollar bottles of wine!!!!
& on and on it goeth…Has putin yet rented his room at maraloco? No, it would be a gifted installment by the drump family grifters….
Please. Please. Let us know if you find out!!
I guess I have to resort to listening to music only because with dictator trump in charge, he wants control over the media. Like Russia etc…
Go figure 🤷🏻♀️
They are only allowed to watch what Putin allows. One channel?
when you find please let me know, I am also looking for one
Leave the country, sad but true.
😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve seen many platforms dedicated to Kamala Harris and there are ways to fight this before Trump takes office. The question is, will we do it 🤷🏻♀️
Now that he’s the president/dictator he wants to control what we see. Like a communistic government, I fear his ugly face is the ONLY “THING” WE SEE 😩
Thank you for the truth. Prayers to you at Meidas.
Stopped watching the day of the election. Stopped my streaming service and will not watch again. They should be ashamed of themselves.
Same except did it in 2016. Never trusted them after 2016.
Me too
I stopped years ago when my kids said “ just watch YouTube” I’ve never gone back, and don’t miss controlled propaganda.
First, I have no idea how any sane person can sit through 5 minutes and they are on for 4 HOURS!!!
We knew they were in the tank for Trump way back in 2016, they are not fooling us.
It felt like gut punch to hear, they not only did an interview, but they RAN TO HIM at MAL as Mica adoringly refers it, her favorite place to be.

Yeah, it’s really gross.
Joe who?
I watched them once. I couldn’t stand him talking over everyone else, I haven’t watched since.
Exactly. He is a bully. Birds of a feather down at 'MAL'.
Just another reason to turn the TV off.
MeidasTouch Network News Rules and so do you,Ron, and will reStack ASAP ☕💯👍
I watched their show until after the election. They immediately began normalizing the failed businessman, thief, rapist, TRAITOR to the USA so I stopped watching them. Their bowing to him is no surprise to me, but disgusting, never-the-less. More so, they are filthy rich so they don’t need their jobs. They just did it for their egos.
We will not normalize this 💩 ever!
My heart is broken. We were big fans of Morning Joe. It is still very unclear as to WHY they thought they had to meet with him. The obvious is so that their show would not be canceled? Bewildered and so disappointed! WTF J&M!
Mika....went on the View in tears for womens rights........they need to ban/shun her from any future appearances..........she now supports a serial rapist, a cabinet full of pedophiles and sexual deviants.........will Morning Joe sit back and watch Mika get gangbanged in the oval office by the Trump cabinet???
Makes you wonder if they want to attract MAGA followers?
OR are they playing Trump at his own game? Only time will tell however, still disgusted.
I really hope that there is some validity to that. I doubt it, but hope stands on its own.
I think NBC, their bosses, told them they had to and they didn't have the balls to refuse. And....Florida should not have been the venue. Should have been neutral turf if it was going to happen.
Thx for sharing!

Is this a joke? Or is this country turning into the “STEPFORD SOCIETY” 😱
Be aware people! Every other person you see are probably Trump supporters.
Listen up men! Most women are turned off by Trump lovers because we know that you most likely share his views which is an automatic rejection 🤷🏻♀️
But too many women voted for him....so let's face that.
I witnessed this live yesterday morning. When I heard them say they went to visit Trump in Florida I was furious. Who in the hell do they think they are? These are two individuals that are worth $45 million. They don’t need to grovel to anyone.
