I’m a paid subscriber and will be forever . I took several journalism classes in college and learned the importance of a free and fair press is as important as having food, clothing , water and shelter . I spread the word about The MTN every day to everyone and anyone . Just do it , word of mouth is so very effective . Download it on your parents and siblings phones if you haven’t already . Our democracy depends on it . Ben, Brett and Jordy : Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your tireless excellent coverage of everything we need to know .

Ben, have you ever thought of contacting Colleges? I believe they all may have a broadcast channel. College students a plus.

Unrelated but important ! Rep Anna just shared this petition from Sierra Club about “Alligator Alcatraz”.

https://act.sierraclub.org/actions/Florida?

If you’re in Florida,please call your legislators about “Alligator Alcatraz”, the detention facility in the Everglades near the site of Native American burial grounds.Apparently DeSantis and AG Uthemeier planned this without including Fl legislators, just as he did when scheming to develop our beautiful state parks. We all know this isn’t true ⬇️

“Uthmeier said in the video that within just 30 to 60 days after beginning construction, the camp could be up and running and could house as many as 1,000 immigrants with criminal records.” They’ll put anyone in there !

📲📲📲 just like we did with state parks!

We'll send the press conference link to all of our American kin, and ask them to distribute it among their friends and family.

You have to remember who is actually running the show and that is the Republican's radical right wing lobby group, The Heritage Foundation. Pre-election, they sent their sister organization, Heritage out to tell every representative that if anyone tries to get in Trump's way will lose their jobs. In Vance's words, they won't fair well. The president of THF said in an interview that we are in a bloodless 2nd American Revolution if the left wants it that way. When Trump was going to run the first time, THF didn't want him in because they thought he was a clown. This time he is their golden nugget because they know he's easily manipulated especially with his cognitive decline. The battle is also with the behind the scenes cult that needs to be kept visible.

Only need 3 Congressional Republicans to blow up his agenda. Rand Paul, Ron Johnson are nutsy koo koo, but we'll take them.

Besides the Medicaid issue, there's Ukraine, and several others.

Where I live, we have 3 MAGA Cuban American House members who oppose Trump's immigration policy. We need to pressure them. I've published this several times. Miami healthcare CEO Michael “Mike” B. Fernandez wrote the following open letter to U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and members of the Republican Cuban-American Miami-Dade congressional delegation: U.S. Reps. Mario Diaz-Balart, Carlos Giménez and Maria Elvira Salazar.

"For decades, I have stood with you in defense of the freedoms we cherish, those we were denied in the country of our birth and found in the grace of this one. I know what it means to flee tyranny. Like you, I carry that history in my bones and that pain in my heart. But like a growing number in our community,

"I have watched with dismay as the very values we once found sanctuary in are now being attacked by a previously unthinkable threat — the sitting president of the United States."

Tennessee is full of Magats, so I'm quite sure my family members know many of them.

I'll send the links you provided.

My brother in law can be very persuasive, as he is a gynecologist, specializing in IVF and fertility issues.

He has a real interest in keeping his state closer to the center politically.

Thank you! The leadership of the Democratic party needs to become more vocal and more confrontational! I am very disappointed with Schumer and Jeffries. It's great to see these 3 Democratic House members stepping forward to criticize this horrible bill.

I wish I could fund more, but am on a small SS and have enough for essentials. If my circumstances ever changed, I would fund not only myself, but for many others. I really appreciate what you are doing for us. I would be lost without you. Thank you.

I’m in the same boat. I do downloads and watch on as many platforms as possible to help their numbers. I wondered if the approach colleges like someone mentioned earlier. Many all have radio stations that could play possibly?

In my state there are refunds for bottles and cans. When I go walking, I take a bag with me and pick them up. When I have to go to the store, I take them in, collect money, while cleaning up the environment, and used that money to join Meidas. That money is my emergency fund and these times are emergency times. I have been doing this for many, many years. I know that not everyone can do this and some think it's kinda crazy, but it works for me. With the tariffs, I will not find as many cans, I'm sure, but will keep trying.

I am glad to be a subscriber. I write postcards for Activate America. I attach labels that have your information on them. Since I was kicked off Facebook and I don't trust the other social networks this is my best way to broadcast about MeidasTouch.

Zuckerberg is the reason I am okay with being kicked off after I posted a lot of negative comments about Trump. Bezos is the reason I cancelled my Amazon account. I am now supporting Walmart after the owner posted a full page ad in the New York Times ahead of the No Kings rallies.
