We will feel total relief once Mark Carney becomes Prime Minister Carney..........and Trump North Poilliever is sent on a one way trip to Mar-a-Lardo to hang with Musk and Alex Jones....his endorsers.

A- I agree Wholeheartedly 🥰🫂🇨🇦

This crap that goes on at PPs rallies?!..

Charlie Angus has been anazing.......He was one of the main leaders of the Stop Adams Mine coalition that defeated Waste Managament Inc's plan to dump Toronto garbage in a northern abandon open pit mine. That took a massive coalition of norther farmers, natives and citizens to pull off.He knows what to do in a politica fight.

PP has been getting fed by right wing trash from that Rebel News and Fraiser Institute........Sun Media bullshit......doing the Chtistian "fake Christian" right wing mega church tours.........such a titty-baby piece of crap.

I cannot wait to, hopefully, never have to see Pierre Pollievre's face again. His MAGA style bullshit and the actions of his supporters is so vile, and so un- Canadian. He spews lies like the words were coming straight from the orange blob's mouth. Elbows up Canada! Carney for PM, Bruce Fanjoy for Carleton. Get rid of useless, vile PP once and for all!🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁

I agree. 100%. 🥰🙌❤️🇨🇦❤️

The Emperor has no clothes and the people are waking up and are unafraid to tell. The fact free ecosystem that MAGA have been living under is unraveling as fast as Trumps mental state and is now offering a new distraction in Trump 2028 hats on his website. Pete Hegseth thinks he is safe because the boss is telling him to keep fighting, but Trump is going to use firing him as the next distraction from his falling poll numbers and his abandonment of Ukraine which little Marco has previewed. The GOP is in for a disaster next year.

Exactly! One hundred percent what he does and MTN brings the receipts every time he tries to do it.

Trump is so predictable, spot on!

That's exactly what I keep thinking, even when he drops the tariffs, these greedy, big corporations not going to drop prices. Just like after covid, the economy is not going to change, HE ruined us, the damage is done and we have to pay the price! He can cry hero all he wants when/if he drops the tariffs it's too late. Our america will never be the same!

I agree 100 %. The only thing I hope is that we, as a nation, out of the ruins of this Presidency, are able to build a stronger, more responsive, more competent government, and not slip back to old habits that got us here. One thing Trump and his ilk have shown us is that we have things to fix beyind what they did.

Elsie Bells McGuelsie's avatar

I agree with you Craig. What I am wondering though, is how do you see this happening? How do we 'fix things beyond what they did?' You might agree that what we are experiencing now is the culmination of 4 decades of planning. I have been trying to put out there that we need a plan, not just to protest but to tell people what we actually want, people, not just candidates but also people so that we can come to an agreement on what we do want. How can we fix this including project 2025 without actually writing our own document and sticking to it? I have been beating this drum for a month now putting out what I think and asking others to agree or disagree and the response, at least to the methods I have been using, Facebook pro-democracy groups, my blog Patrick's politics from 80,000 feet, comments to nearly all the independent media leaders and followers, has been bupkis, Zero interest, no involvement, Nada, squat. I just don't get it. How do you see it?

I am not yet confident democracy is saved. Russell Vought at the Office of Management and Budget was a major architect of Project 2025; however, you, the rest of the Substack, and traditional media are ignoring him. In part, this is due to his sneakiness. He is smarter in the ways of the reactionary, fascist revolution. He is quieter, more subtle, more undercover. Watch out for him and his foot soldiers.

Concerned Citizen's avatar

And isn’t Stephen Miller part of that project 2025 crap? I’ve been saying all along that we also have to look out for those authors, including Peter Thiel. And we can’t assume JD Vance is going to be any better as a president if this one goes. We need to get rid of him as well.

Cath62's avatar

Amen! It's the side minions that whisper in tRump's ear that are the most dangerous. The whole regime needs to be taken down and that is going to take significantly more work. The battle has just begun.

Bluesmurf's avatar

Stephen Miller has been glued to Trumps side since before the 2016 election and stayed with him during the Biden Administration. He is the main hater of black and brown people and has Trump's ear for all things. I am sure he eggs him on and Trump knows he is loyal to a fault so he lets him have free rein. He and many others are lawyers, so even if he did or did not author parts of Project 2025, he probably has written a large number of the executive orders.

There is also a suspicion that miller writes the somewhat coherent instant messages that come out of Trumps social platform. He is a problem, but one that will go away when Trump goes away.

I swear Stephen Miller is a reincarnated SS officer from the 3rd Reich. There is nothing human behind his eyes

AdrianB's avatar

The “Project2025” should be renamed “Mein Drumpf2025” !

Brevity's avatar

Exactly Andrew! It is important not to be distracted by the daily onslaught of Trumps bluster. I would like to see regular reporting from

Meidas focused on Vought, Theil, Miller-all the architects of P2025. In order to defeat P2025, we can’t allow them to hide. Meidas has the reach to inform with receipts.

Penny Boone's avatar

I am not ignoring Vought. He is the evil minion pulling the levers behind the scene.

Concerned Citizen's avatar

The other thing is the more coverage the orange fell and gets the more he rants. I know we need to keep our focus on him, but the media needs to stop propagating his lies. We need to fight the people behind the scenes. Don’t you think felon 47 would get upset if he wasn’t being covered as much as other people?

Bluesmurf's avatar

Absolutely. If all media were cut off and the Internet was shut down, and there was no phone service or other way to talk to people or get in the media, he would probably throw an on-going temper tantrum for the world to behold - of course, if all those things were true, the world would never see it. 🤣🤣🤣

Cutting off the attention he seeks and gets would have a profound impact on him.

I have begun to think that Trump needed to be elected and demonstrate his incompetence. His cult members will never give up on him. But people who still call themselves Republicans and Independents apparently had to burn their fingers on the hot stove to learn.

Apparently, we as a country had to FAFO. It’s too bad that we had to learn the hard way. I just hope that we actually are learning.

Yes. World War II came to an end, but the amount of damage and lives lost was unthinkable. But apparently we can’t learn from history.

Connie L's avatar

Stay focused. We’ve got this!! Together! It doesn’t matter who you are as long as we are fighting together. I’m proud of all of you and extremely grateful. If it’s being stubborn that drives you or anger, passion, compassion, empathy or love keep going everything we do helps. I love all of you. Thank you.

I still worry about Musk, he may be fading out of sight but he is not gone. I believe Doge has our PI already and is working on a central funnel through Starlink where the control over all of us will be omnipotent. We are all watching Trump but I think Musk is still someone to be reckoned with.

WJB Motown's avatar

You are so right.........Maga is not defeated totally........they may have lost some battles but the war is not over.........massive protests and massive oppostion to MAGA must only increase.........weekly if possible.

Jane kurtz's avatar

Thanks for a very movable letter. I cried and smiled at we can accomplish just by being strong and determined to save our USA. We can do this, but it takes the determination of us all together. Thank you everyone!

Mighty Meidas is the #1 defender of democracy. Together, we will prevail over fascism. I wrote a poem about the brave truth-telling brothers behind this wonderful platform: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/meidas-touch-poem

Never forget.....David Pakman has 3 million followers.........IHIPNEWS....close to a million.......many other democracy fighters are part of the massive coalition that must be recognized...........we as Canadians are proud of our own Juno Beach landing during D Day June 6.1944.........34 nations made up the Allies in WW2.

I am beginning to feel the shift. My hope is that this nightmare is over sooner rather than later. Keep up the great work MeidasTough.

If I were a catholic I would be sickened to know that Trumpolini will be attending the Pope Francis funeral. Such a blot on the landscape and already he is complaining that he won’t be seated in the front row trying to make it all about him.

Sharon Horton's avatar

He's attending the funeral because he goes wherever the cameras are, but we all knew that.

Susan Raquel's avatar

Hope he is in the back row on a hard seat. Just read that Italy has made massive plans: no planes or drones allowed, snipers, police, etc.

Yes tired and flustered is a man tired of his own BS that no longer works. Notice how in the pressers, he delegates the questions he can't be bothered to snswer to someobe else...eg. "Pam, you wanna answer that?, "Marco, you wanna answer that?", leaving him to take the soft pitch questions where he can filibuster and lie with gay abandon (no insult to Gays).

H O P E….don’t let them steal your joy. MAGA has none of their own.

N. Walters's avatar

We need to stay strong, keep the pressure ongoing. Run Trump out of Washington and back to Florida!

Cathy Delia's avatar

I live in Florida, but I still agree that he belongs here and not in the White House. There are plenty of nursing homes he could live in.

Carla Innis's avatar

Preferably one with bars.

Kitty's avatar

Why not back to New York, where they can deal with him better?

Stephen F. Duncan's avatar

Keep it up - keep your foot on the gas - dont let up. Tell the truth loud and clear.

JudiLI's avatar

As nice as it is to see Trump failing we must keep the pressure on. May 1st peaceful protests are coming up. Check Indivisible or 50501 for a protest you can attend or support. Thanks Meidas for keeping the faith!
