IMPORTANT Message from Meidas Founder

By Ben Meiselas

Hey Meidas Mighty. It’s Ben Meiselas, co-founder of the MeidasTouch Network. I wanted to send this message this morning, with all the recent developments, to just check in on you and say hello. I wanted to let you know you are doing an incredible job holding the line against this Trump regime. There has been a lot thrown at you in the past 20 days, and I truly believe this community is stronger than ever.

From the invasion of Venezuela, to the invasion of Minnesota, to threats of invasion of Greenland, and the cover-up of the Epstein files, it’s been manufactured chaos by the regime to cover up its massive failure. The American people are not being fooled and have shown incredible resiliency. Trump’s approval continues to plummet, and it has culminated in his humiliating trip to Davos, Switzerland.

In times like this, I always think it’s important to focus on the things we can control and make sure we execute on the tasks under our control each day. At the most basic level, we can control our commitment to democracy and freedom and empathy and a better tomorrow. We can control our commitment to never give up. We can control our pursuit of the truth and our commitment to resist and fight against fascism.

We can build from there. As a news network, we’ve seen major growth in 2026. We’ve built out our Washington, DC bureau, and Pablo Manríquez has been doing incredible reporting from the steps of Capitol Hill. We’ve built out our on-the-ground reporting in Minnesota. We’ve got reporters headed to Greenland. We’ve had reporters on the frontlines in Ukraine. I think I’ve done close to 100 interviews already in 2026, from governors to senators to members of Congress and candidates for office. The MeidasTouch Network was once again the most viewed and downloaded video and audio podcast network in the country.

We have other major plans for 2026 that I hope to announce soon, which I am diligently working on with our incredible team. As I said, we can control what we can control, and every ounce of energy will be spent making this network stronger and better able to meet the moment and help get us out of this fascist dystopia for generational change that restores democracy and freedom and normalcy and empathy.

Anyway, I just wanted to check in this morning to say hello and to thank you and to let you know your efforts are making a big difference. Let’s keep fighting.
