I’m so excited for this!

When this is all over, and I hope soon, I’ll remember Meidas for the brilliant wall to wall coverage of the corruption and destroying state regime media. Thanks for your service to the resistance!

RESISTANCE IS NOT FUTILE!

I feel like we are making history alongside them, especially those who have been watching them since 2020+. ❤

Hey, apparently Lawrence O’Donnell is leaving MSNBC. dint know where he’s going. Can you guys snag him? He’s the only one in major media with the balls to call trump an idiot.

Amnos Storm's avatar

Thanks for the news! Wouldn't it be a nice reunion if Lawrence partners with @MeidasTouch just like Katie Phang does and they can do some shows together too

Candace Lucas's avatar

That would be fabulous. Rachel Maddow is also leaving now that MSNBC is becoming MS NOW (?) but she apparently has plans where to go. I couldn’t find anything about Lawrence. I would hate to never see him again. Work a deal, Ben.

Please provide receipts on both RM and LoD leaving MSNBS, nothing about it on any media I can see. Reader comments are not references.

LindaThalman's avatar

What's your source for that? Yikes if true. And Rachel Maddow? Share your receipts on Lawrence leaving MSNBC (new name? MS NOW?)

Candace Lucas's avatar

I saw a link posted in comments in another Meidas story. ...

I will say that when I clicked on the link it looked like it was malware, so beware. Which also means the story could be false too.

However, there was also something on yahoo dated four months ago that said he wasn’t, so that’s the reason I had a ? In my comment.

The new name for MSNBC is MS NOW.

I’m hoping Ben and the guys look into it.

Nice to exchange info on this. May I gently suggest you might have "jumped the gun" on suggesting Lawrence was leaving MS NOW. I would suggest that If and when either Lawrence or Rachel leave, they will have a scathing "good bye and f... you" message on their last shows... sort of like Colbert. I watch both every day from here in France. Both are award winning reporters in my book. Cheers Candace.

Candace Lucas's avatar

yes, it seems i got a bad piece of info. mea culpa. I would HATE for either Lawrence of Rachel to leave whatever the new program is called. Sorry, commenters. didn't mean to mislead anyone.

Absolutely! When I get too stressed, I just watch a couple of the Police.Series videos like this: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/r4z1KgTGiqs?feature=share

I am still trying to figure out what the lead dancer is carrying on his back (each group leader is carrying something different). Yah, yah, I know... frivolous, right? But when I get overwhelmed, it helps me to snap out of it 😊

I watch animals, mainly happy dogs and purring cats, when I am not watching Sean on Midlife Stockman use his edger and power sweeper! Have just added the Native Habitat Project, too! We do what we gotta do!

So Candace, I read the same info, somewhere, about MSNBC rebranding to MSNOW. Don’t know where but sounded plausible to me...you know, I think it was a you tube video (which I rarely watch), I can search my history and find source. Later.

Gist was NBC wanted their name back, so that’s going. MIcrosoft I guess doesn’t care about the MS anymore so it stays. The NOW is News, ____, World. Shit. There was no timeline given for dismantling my old favorite network, prior to being swept off my feet by MTN!

And no mention there of Lawrence leaving (no! And yes! MTN must have him!) nor of Rachel’s plans. Both favorites. It hurts contemplating their absence.

That’s my two cents, source to follow.

Follow both of them matter where they go in the world and make their podcasts for Midas Touch.

Debbie Moody's avatar

I love him! He's not afraid to stand up to tRump and call it like it is.

Candace Lucas's avatar

I know. He regularly calls trump the stupidest president in history yet trump hasn’t called for Lawrence to be fired like he has others. Makes me think Lawrence has something on the orange windbag .

Candace Lucas's avatar

Yes, he’s the only major media person I religiously watch. He knows his stuff, he’s insightful and not afraid to call trump what he is: a lying sack of shit.

i love lawrence ❗️❗️❗️

did not hear that rumour

he calls trump out in a

mature fashion deservedly

love from, 🇨🇦

MaryTR's avatar

No, he hasn't. The report stating that he was leaving is 8 months old. Please do not spread rumors. Here is a report he gave on TUESDAY: https://youtu.be/x3fhgLCx84Y

PatchyGroundFog 🐎's avatar

The only thing I saw was back in June his contract was set to expire and he was looking around. But since he's still on MSNBC, looks like he decided to stay.

Candace Lucas's avatar

That must be what occurred. The little bit of info I was able to find mentioned his contract expiring

Cat C's avatar

I can’t find anything credible about Lawrence leaving, and just a couple weeks ago Rachel quashed the rumour on her program that she is leaving—happy where she is and staying.

Candace Lucas's avatar

Yes, I wasn’t sure either. There was contradictory info on the internet. I hope he’s staying but if not, meidas should snap him up.

Cat C's avatar

Absolutely! We need Lawrence where ever he is—keeps me sane!

Candace Lucas's avatar

There’s no one else like him. I look forward to his shows that I watch the rerun every morning and miss him the mornings he’s not on. And he’s 100% with the meidas boys. He won’t let the Epstein files thing drop. He brings it up every show, hammers it home. Meidas should invite him on, if that’s possible. It sure his contract would allow it.

We're celebrating here in Ottawa, the nation's capital. I work in government and the offices and halls are cheering, we just spread the news.

Charlie, if it weren't for you, the world wouldn't know that we aren't just polite and reserved. We can move mountains if that's what it takes to defeat fascism. Let's make Ben and Meidastouch proud!
