They are Coming for Me…We are Ready

By Ben Meiselas

I am not afraid at all about what we expect will happen. Trump is going to attack independent news next. We are the leader of independent news. My sources tell me we are a daily discussion inside the White House now. They view us as one of the faces of the resistance. They want us destroyed. They won’t succeed.

We are more than a news network. We are a movement. If you eliminate me and my brothers, independent news will only grow stronger as Trump grows weaker. The spark has been lit on the proliferation of independent news, and the MeidasTouch Network and its ethos will always live on.

I think about the next generation of Meidas leadership—people like Adam Mockler and Aaron Parnas, and others taking the torch and running with it. I am proud of how we develop young talent at the MeidasTouch Network and do our part to support their platforms. It’s not just young talent, but talent across the board. It’s always been my top priority to help all the other creators who fight for democracy build their platforms. I don’t view it as competition. I view it as contributing to this necessary and existential ecosystem to replace corporate news. That’s what I want my legacy to be, after hopefully being remembered as a good dad and husband and friend and someone who helped others and fought for democracy and basic values like compassion and empathy and love and facts.

I am confident that whatever Trump throws our way, we will fight and win. We’ve got the top lawyers and the greatest movement in political history behind us. We are prepared for anything. We will continue to stay on top of the digital charts and we will continue to beat Fox News and Joe Rogan and all right-wing media combined.
