I am a UK watcher. So you can totally discard this. But get as many people on the ground talking to those in the LA fires exposing the lies, talking to the fire fighters etc.

Also, more coverage of how other countries are fighting the right wing in their own countries may just show that no one is alone in the fight for democracy!

Thanks again for all you do! Best channel on YouTube! We need the equivalent in the UK so please expand eventually 😅

That kind of boots-on-the-ground reporting is the best way to counter disinformation - even when it's unintentional. I'm still chuckling over Musk's own goal the other day when he 'interviewed' firefighters about 'how bad Newsom's response has been' and got his backside handed to him.

Thank you for fighting against your own version of MAGA in the UK. Farage is the same kind of jumped-up street hustler and Putin-backed carny barker as The Felon. But, sadly, the appeal of those types can't be underestimated, especially when a large part of society are looking for someone else to blame for the mediocrity of their lives.

Writing from Germany where a party that comprises many neonazis is gaining more and more voters (with a little help of their friend Elon and associated sycophants...), I can only echo what you are saying - we need something like Meidas in Germany, too!

We still have a very critical and diverse press landscape, but I have the feeling that the rejection of the AfD (the very rights party including many authoritarian-loving, Putin-, Orban-, Trump-friendly and often nazi-style members and voters) is not as strong as it has been. There is already something of a both-siding going on. This is also the fault of the weakness and lack of competence of the old parties, but it is therefore not less spooky.

My very old parents who are extremely grateful for the allied forces liberating Germany are wringing their hands and saying that they would never had thought something like that would ever happen again, not in Germany and not - almost everywhere - in the whole world.

Voices like those of the Meidas Touch network contributors are getting more important by the day! Worldwide! There should be (no, there needs to be) an organised network exposing almost in real-time Fox's lies almost and those of their political representatives, i.e. the Republicans and similar parties members from other countries.

I 💯 agree with you. It shocks me that the AfD and parties like it (in the UK we have Reform) are not called out on the lack of facts, their hateful rhetoric and the lack of knowledge when it actually comes to government policy and economics!! We need to call them out!! I also hope that the EU swiftly ban twitter in favour of blue sky and any other platform that has promote disinformation!

So many countries are suffering the rise of far right koo koo's. I LOVE the idea of a united alternative that believes in the power of the individual and "all the freedoms" vs. an authoritarian state.... like the NATO nations have done to support Ukraine's efforts to defend itself--but including people from other countries with the same challenge even if not in NATO? Maybe MTN is a good place to start, and if so we must all up our game in attracting more subscribers (from all over).

THE RESISTANCE COMETH: Former Biden-Harris officials will help launch on Inauguration Day a new legal response center to bolster the fight against Trump’s impending executive orders, our MYAH WARD reports. The new effort, funded by the national legal organization Democracy Forward — formed in 2017 during Trump’s first term — will analyze the president-elect’s executive orders to support legal and political challenges to his agenda.

The group, which announced the effort Thursday, has already identified more than 200 “emerging threats” that the orders pose.

Get an interview with Michelle Obama. That should push Fox over the edge altogether. As an extra plus it also will get some of the other "good picks and picker" to go nuts. Maybe a group interview with Michelle Obama, AOC, Liz Chaney, Hillary Clinton and a few other women leaders together and watch them kick some backside for sure. That group of women should really start a seismic eruption of macho Republican men. Of course they are only macho when they are raping, grabbing, drugging, photographing the victims and showing the photos around or bragging about doing this.

YES! Far too many maga voters (and even some "traditional" gop) bought the orange lie that he "didn't know anything about P2025 or the people involved"..

She is part of the huge mainstream media campaign that badgered President Biden to step down from his campaign. Even knowing what she knows she still did that. She, of all people, knew that America was not in a position to elect a woman - much less a woman of color - so she is just part of the large cog of MS media all kissing the ring. She's just less obvious if someone is not paying attention.

But you know - on second thought - I would like her to be interviewed. I want to know if she still sleeps well at night knowing that she contributed to the orange clown getting back into the oval office.

Hi Ben et al, Personally I covers to being very tired of reading how angry you are to not be #1. I really like Meidas and am a long time donor and subscriber but at this point there are people who I’ve referred to Meidas who are telling me that they can’t deal with and are totally turned off by the constant fundraising emails like the one I got today. They are going elsewhere for their news. I have to say that I don’t care what is happening on other channels. You have lots of followers and have built a great network. Please stop sending out so many competitive “I’ve got to be #1 “emails. This is a stressful enough time for all of us without a daily reminder of trying to beat a network of lies and deceit. They know they are getting to you by your angered responses. Anger and fear are first cousins. The fires are terrifying and I’m so so sorry that you and your family and so many have such difficult times ahead. So please get back to a focus that matters… not beating out what has become a somewhat mythic bogeyman.

With great respect and admiration, Carol

Claudia's avatar

I agree with Carol. I’m a new subscriber and feel as if your angry screeds are sounding similar in tone to what I see on Fox (even though I completely agree with your sentiments). How about finding new ways to share the truth about the fires? Interviews with locals, firefighters, forestry and water officials, anyone who can tell the truth in a humanizing, compelling way. Stories about people helping each other, stories about people from far away helping. Maybe even some stories about how people in California helped some of the red states when they were in dire need after similar emergencies? What we need now is to re-humanize ourselves as a country and help people come back together, not pull us further apart. Organizations like Braver Angels are doing that work, which runs counter to the us vs. them that Fox et al. continue to successfully push. Thank you for your dedication and passion, Ben.

Liz, all caps telling someone their comments are myopic and naive is rude. And if you want to win, then don't be rude to a fellow commenter who also wants to win. There are several excellent substacks out there. Meidas is one of them. But most of us have only so much discretionary money to spend. And with more substacks coming in like Jennifer Rubin's The Contrarian, people are going to make the choice about where to subscribe because msm is such a lost cause. What keeps me here is Ron Filipkowski's excellent news summation. But what will win ultimately is electing tougher Democrats who are fighters. It won't be because you beat FOX News as number one.

Sarah May's avatar

First I have to disagree and say there's nothing that shows they have to be number one. Second, what they did was explain to you the reason they are reaching out. They not only discuss their frustration with the lies being number one but also asking us for advice on what we believe as their subscribers, would be good to see and push. They also cannot get people on the ground and communicating and talking with real people without paying them. So they have to have a goal and get new subscribers. Many people don't understand how much money actually goes into putting a show on and it's not just him and it's not just his brothers. It is a network of people they have to pay. Fox doesn't have this issue which, I believe but could be wrong, is the point he was making. The fact he is able to beat Fox without all of the money that they have shows him and his brothers that what they're doing is valuable and it's reaching far enough. The problem is when the competition that has a lot of money is creeping up at the top that means Midas Touch has to push harder because of the lack of reach and resources. They want to make truth number one. I do agree that the wording probably could have been done better but I think the passion that they have they sent this out as soon as they had a moment because they feel the sense of urgency. Of course I don't know this for a fact these are just my opinion thoughts based off of how I see them as dedicated people to democracy and the truth. I just wish people would see things as more of a positive and understand why they have to put emails out in regards to money. We got to stop misreading in a negative form. The problem with Fox is their actions and their words and the truth never coaline. We don't have that with Midas Touch so maybe go a little easy until we see them become people like fox. Then give them hell. Right now we need to not pick them apart for not being perfect and Catering to our sensitivities. They're doing the best they can with what they got and unfortunately they need to ask us for help to give us more.
