The secret weapon against Trump was independent media.

Now Trump is squirming.

He got corporate news to kiss the ring.

He underestimated the power of regular Americans using their voices to create media networks to expose his corruption.

The MeidasTouch Network is now Trump and MAGA’s worst nightmare. Thanks to our subscribers on this Substack (please subscribe now if you can), we have flipped the script on the news cycle.

I am proud to announce that in the past month, I conducted over 60 interviews with governors, senators, congress members, candidates, and labor leaders. That comes to two major marquee interviews each day, seven days a week, over the past 30 days.

In that time, we’ve also hit 350 million YouTube views in a single month, and we’ve received three times the podcast downloads as the Joe Rogan podcast this month (Remember to add the MeidasTouch Podcast on audio on Apple Podcasts and Spotify).

Our coverage of the protests, Democratic shadow hearings, and former President Obama’s speech at Hamilton College have all been successful.

We’ve done deep dives this week into Trump’s economic chaos and market manipulation.

We’ve analyzed every major federal court and Supreme Court ruling from every angle.

We have expanded our coverage to become one of the most-watched YouTube channels and podcasts in Canada and many other countries.

In addition, yesterday we became the fastest-growing network/user on Substack thanks to all our subscribers here.

This week, we saw a major Substack subscriber surge as Trump has looked weaker and more pathetic than ever before.

Trump has failed to stop our resistance and opposition. Trump looks weaker than ever as he traps himself in his own failed tariff stunt. World leaders look at him with disgust and mockery and see him for how weak he is. The MeidasTouch Network has never missed a single beat—or hour—in the day when it comes to exposing him and MAGA.

I have to keep this post short since I am about to interview New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy. Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, who was just appointed as the top federal prosecutor for New Jersey, threatened Governor Murphy yesterday by saying on Fox that she was criminally investigating him. What an absolute clown show (no offense to professional clowns) the Trump regime is.

I think it’s important that the MeidasTouch Network has been relentlessly fighting the Trump regime and MAGA leaders every second. The fact that we keep beating Fox News in digital views shows that the message is getting out.

We would love your help.

We are approaching 1 million subscribers on this Substack. Help us reach that goal and help us continue to expand our coverage.

You can even gift a subscription to someone you know. Check out my YouTube videos I made this morning.

And please subscribe to this Substack now if you can to help us stay the most-watched news network in America.
