Mighty Meidas is a beacon of truth and empathy. Milken is also an oligarch, please tread carefully. Let’s defend democracy with the #1 independent media platform!
Agree, but let's defend the Republic given to us by our forefather's instead. There is a key difference between one and the other.
At the close of the Constitutional Convention on September 17, 1787, as Ben Franklin left the hall in Philadelphia, he was asked, “What kind of government have you given us, Dr. Franklin?” He replied: "A republic, if you can keep it."
Can we keep it? Yes. Will we? That is the question.
YES......All podcasters need to work together at this critical time........This is not 1776........muskets have been replaced with AR-15s.........feather pens with mobile phones.......MTN is our base........For final victory over the Orange menace a massive coalition is crucial.
Franklin also said “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy snd wise”. Someone ought to remind our Prez to do that so that he will start acting a little wiser. And it is a caution for all of you working so hard out there at this time. To investigate and report on the current state of affairs. Take care of yourselves!!
Milken is a convicted fraudster pardoned by Trump on February 18, 2020. The theme of this BS is "toward a flourishing future." Bessent said
"Mike Milken, like President Trump, is a visionary. In the 1970s, he had the rare combination of guts and intellect to defy the Wall Street consensus. With his heterodox approach to junk bonds, he pioneered a new asset class known today as high-yield bonds.
"By staying true to his vision, Mike overturned decades of economic orthodoxy. He bootstrapped entirely new industries by redirecting billions of dollars in capital to non-investment grade companies. His colleagues on Wall Street told him he was delusional and a fool. But history ultimately proved him right."
So early in the morning -- this Bessent drivel makes me want to barf on an empty stomach. I appreciate your quotes as a reminder to the "woke" among us.
I did a little research. Bessent has a history of losing in real estate deals.
In 2007, Bessent bought a house in Bedford Hills, New York for $11.3 million. He sold it in 2011 for $7.1 million, losing at least $4.2 million. In 2007, Bessent purchased a unit at One Sutton Place South that formerly belonged to a sister of John F. Kennedy, for $12 million; he sold it, at a loss, for $9.5 million in 2009.He took a loss on his unit at 720 Park Avenue, buying it for $19.25 million in 2017 and selling it for $15 million in 2021.
IMHO this makes him emminently qualified to take us into bankruptcy.
Excellent research and brilliant comment. I found on line a podcast by one of the spokes persons for the Brix alliance -- they were laughing at Bessent's attempts to "negotiate" absolutely anything.
We also have a big New Jersey Gubernatorial Race in November, plus there are special congressional races in September & November (plus Pennsylvania Supreme Court races)
We have a great candidate for NJ governor in Mikie Sherrill. She was a Navy pilot, a prosecutor and has a vision for our state fighting for us against the regime in Washington. I would really appreciate a conversation with her on MTN.
So proud of Adam. He has come so far in such a short period of time. He’s really putting that quick mind of his to work in the best possible way. He’s the real deal. Can’t wait to see where this young man goes in life.
Nebraska’s two largest cities are having elections this month. Just this past Tuesday, NOT ONE SINGLE REPUBLICAN WON ANY SEAT in the Lincoln city elections! Next Tuesday the 13th, my city of Omaha is holding the general mayoral and city council election. Go John Ewing for mayor!
Yay! This is where it all starts. We have to reclaim our local communities and all the boards, mayors, council people, district boards, school boards, library boards, water boards, recreational boards, city planning boards, county commissioners, sheriffs, county election boards, state legislators, AGs, Sec of State, Governors and everything else in between. We have to push out the hatred, bigotry, racism, phobia prone whackadoodles who want to tell everyone else how to live and get the message to go live your own life and let others live theirs. Oh, and 'to mind your own damned business.'
We can do this - this year, next year, and the year after that - and for years to come. Keep running our "freedom & democracy" candidates until we have it all back.
I thought we might dub the birthday parade for the orange felon; Tanks for Nothing DT ! LOL You keep leading the way Meidas. We are united against this regime.
Note the counter Veterans protest the week before in Washington.........Information online as they are planning it now......maybe a Meidas Mighty member can post all the information on this protest.
Personally, I’m exhausted from the “own the libs” and the thought of just bc someone is Republican or conservative, they must be a tRump supporter and completely lack in any ethics or values! THATS EXACTLY WHAT TRUMP SET OUT TO DO! Fascism 101…Divide and Conquer!
Finding MeidasTouch was a huge relief bc of its pro-democracy message that it’s not us against us, it’s us against the Greedy 1% that has infiltrated our government and wants to destroy us! I’m proud to have so much more in common with my fellow Americans than what divides us! You are all my people and I am grateful to each and every one of you!
Hi Ben!!! I am so grateful to you guys! I know it can't be easy. Not to ask for more, but Can you guys cover the data collection by Elon Musk and pound that story until people get it? I think it's the scariest thing going...
Heather Cox Richardson covered it today and I feel like my head is going to explode. Thanks
I just made more or less the same request at the same time. HCR's most recent is scary, even to those of us who already had some idea of what was going on.
After watching little Donald the last couple of weeks, it’s clear they can’t hide his diminished state of mind. When I say diminished, I mean he’s in serious trouble mentally. It’s clear they can’t hide it anymore.
He’s probably suffering from the same mental decay his father suffered- dementia that developed into Alzheimer’s disease.
I’m wondering when they start the process of hiding him from the public more often only allowing very specific people to be near him in public. A dangerous person will be more dangerous as his enablers allow him to try to do more damage.
We need to call this out now every day and keep harping on it. Maybe one day the corp media will finally open their eyes.
Hopefully he will not be enabled for all 4 years…. He himself by erratic and mercurial and sociopathic behavior can do so much damage in so little time. But there are many people around him that are truly evil minded (Stephen Miller for example) or incompetent (Pete Hegseth for example) and wedded to Project 2025, to pushing isolationist and oligarchic snd authoritarian agendas, raking in money and influence for themselves in the process. Every day we must be dismantling what they are putting together as the vision for our country.
I think that his sycophants, who are in office, will tread very carefully because Trump's basic personality will not allow them to try to smother him in any way. I think that if Trump perceives this he will just fire them. Others are always standing in line waiting to kiss his ring.
I'm sorry -- it's been common shorthand for "mainstream media" but more now are using the terms "legacy media" or "corporate media," so I shall adapt accordingly. Thank you. (:
Point is that nobody uses the language… It is Facebook cell phone texting bullshit. People under 56 think that a predicate is a new Taco Bell item… Sentence?? What is that. ?I am so sick of this anti “legacy news” bullshit. Being a podcaster with a bad bra, cheap microphone, and zoom does not make your Walter Cronkite
As a 75-year-od senior, it is so gratifying to see young people stepping up and into the fray. Their energies, enthusiasm, and demand for justice fueled an end to the Viet Nam war in my era and we can look forward to their continuing the resistance against irresponsible, reckless and uncaring government to ensure a secure future for themselves and their kids and grandkids.

Can we keep it? Yes. Will we? That is the question.
Benjamin Franklin also said: "We must hang together, gentlemen, or assuredly we shall all hang separately." :-)
Indeed.
“We must learn to live together as brothers, or we will perish together as fools” -MLK Jr.
Great MLK response -- I had not known of it. Thanks.

Alas, he strikes me as someone who leans more toward this version:
"Early to bed early to rise, until you make enough money, to do otherwise." -Trump (probably)
Indeed. Avoid billionaires at all costs. We’ve all seen too many examples of where that can lead.

What he should ask is whether crooks like Milkin (i.e. Trump/Musk) can be prosecuted to fund the Treasury?
So early in the morning -- this Bessent drivel makes me want to barf on an empty stomach. I appreciate your quotes as a reminder to the "woke" among us.

So Trump hired a qualified loser, for once. The guy is disgusting
Excellent research and brilliant comment. I found on line a podcast by one of the spokes persons for the Brix alliance -- they were laughing at Bessent's attempts to "negotiate" absolutely anything.
To be fair, Milken is a long time, well known philanthropist. Which is more than you can say about his asshole peers.
We also have a big New Jersey Gubernatorial Race in November, plus there are special congressional races in September & November (plus Pennsylvania Supreme Court races)
We have a great candidate for NJ governor in Mikie Sherrill. She was a Navy pilot, a prosecutor and has a vision for our state fighting for us against the regime in Washington. I would really appreciate a conversation with her on MTN.
Hoping Ben will talk to Mikie Sherrill soon!
Yes, she’s been doing the media rounds a lot lately. She talked to Michael Popok recently
Fellow New Jerseyan here 👋
I’m not in New Jersey 😅 but I give you guys my full support
So proud of Adam. He has come so far in such a short period of time. He’s really putting that quick mind of his to work in the best possible way. He’s the real deal. Can’t wait to see where this young man goes in life.
Yes, we will stay number one because truth and being on the right side of history matters.

Going on a sign! Thanks!! Or rather… “tanks”!

Brilliant. :)

Absolutely! Tim O'Brien highlighted this about Trump, so every single day -- the MSM needs to do their job in this regard!!
What the fuck is MSM??

Thank you for your hard work and bravery. Resist.
