Shine a light on every aspect of the regime and point out every atrocity. Corporate media is concerned about profit and power. We want the truth and accountability.

Hope a lot of protesters will accompany Zalensky.

Since the "you don't have the cards" Trump gaffe, Russia is bombed nightly, the Russian army is losing troops by death, injury, and defection, and the summer Russian initiative has stalled, if not thwarted. By bombing oil refineries and arms factories, Russia is on the verge of banktruptcy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=lmp4C1bRpiM

Britan, France and Germany will be with Zalensky when he meets with McAnklesTacoTits and the Orange cult of narcissitic/psycopathic goons.

Correct spelling is Zelenskyy . So glad he is having his European allies with him. The treatment he received from trump and jigglydick Vance the last visit was horrendous.

I decided to see if there was an explanation for the two yy's. There is:

The last name of Ukraine’s president is correctly spelled: Зеленський.

"The reason behind the multiple spellings is that the Ukrainian language doesn’t use the same alphabet as English, so any rendering of Ukrainian names into the English language is a transliteration, which means we’re taking the Ukrainian spelling Зеленський and fashioning it into an English-like spelling that approximates how it is said aloud.

According to the US Library of Congress Romanisation tables, a character-for-character rendering of the Ukrainian president’s name into the Latin alphabet would result in the spelling: “Zelenskyy,” which according to his former spokesperson Iuliia Mendel, is the official spelling used by the Ukrainian Passport Service."

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/zelensky-zelenskyy-ukraine-president-spelling-b2037103.html

The article goes on to say there are several variations of the spelling and if you do a google search you will get more hits using Zelensky vs Zelenskyy.

Thanks for doing the research.

Double y was an error on my part.

Sylvia Sewell's avatar

Guess name was auto spelled correctly. Mine would have been wrong.

He’s bringing a lot of cards today! So hopefully this is a bad day for Putin and his puppet.

Good morning to all.

For everyone reading this: this isn’t just another newsletter, this is a war drum. Ben’s laying down the beat, but you are the chorus. Every call, every email, every protest, every share…those aren’t small acts, they’re battle formations.

Trump’s regime wants us exhausted, divided, too busy worrying about “what’s safe” to fight back. But here’s the thing: democracy doesn’t die from their lies, it dies when you stay silent.

So let’s flip this and use Jamess Wilson’s words above as your marching orders.

• Flood your reps with calls.

• Blast the truth in every feed and inbox.

• Drag corruption out into the sunlight until it burns.

Because fascism hates exposure. And that’s why this post isn’t just an update…it’s an alarm bell. And the fact you’re here, reading this, means you already heard it.

The only question left is: will you act?

I’m acting. Every damn day. That’s why I built www.xplisset.com to keep pulling receipts, stacking timelines, and shining the same light Ben’s talking about. If you’re ready to double the wattage.

The storm’s here. The only thing left to ask is: are you in, or are you out?

"Democracy doesn't die from their lies, it dies when you stay silent." Powerful words, simply stated but so frighteningly true. Thank you.

Robyn Reichling's avatar

I'm in. Keep up the good work, the good trouble.

Cindy's avatar

Well said! The Fight is the only option! I will always stand up for what is right. Power to the people!💪💪💙💙

Good Morning Ben And Everyone Well Said Ben. They thought this was going to be easy. They thought people were just going to sit back and do nothing. What they didn’t count on was The MeidasTouch and others like you to stand up to them. And for us we the people to stand strong and stay strong and fight against fascism and saving our democracy. Because unlike them we want truth and honesty and an America where we are all able to live in a country where there is peace equality and freedom. We don’t want any dictators. Because this American will be damned if someone like the evils in Washington controls her life. So let’s keep on protesting our rights and freedoms. And never give up keep on fighting. Stay Strong and Stay Safe 💯💯💯💯💪💪💪💪💪💪💯💯💯💯💯💪💪💪💙💙

I follow what the orange buffoon posts on his horrible “Trash” Social and I reply accordingly. I also troll maga on X (as much as I hate being on there) but feel I need to be to do my bit to “talk louder” than those maggot morons. We’re behind you all the way MTN!!

WJB Motown's avatar

Keep trolling the TacoTits..........Donable Lector.......McAnkles........Orange cult of "the uneducated"........Depends and Maxipad wearing Deplorables.........!!!!

"Donable Lectur'. funny

Jeff's avatar

We had a dog named Max. On his dish was his name: Max E Pads. I give permission to the WH to use this name for our captain bone spurs 🦴🍖🦴

WJB Motown's avatar

So cool....LOL.......Max would never stick a pad on his ear...........only Fauxwashed morons do that!!!

Stephanie Thompson's avatar

Some older folks may need Depends ( thankfully, not me…yet ) but that doesn’t mean they’re stupid and in the Taco Titty Baby cult. So many of us have been activist protesters since the 60’s; we’re just sad and angry that it’s necessary AGAIN! And some of us don’t have the physical capabilities we had then, but, if we can, we donate money!

Debbie E's avatar

I couldn't stomach that so thank you for taking it for the team.

Janell's avatar

Cecilia, it is good you troll those other places. Can't get myself to do it. Do you know if Joe Rogen is still kissing the orange wanna be dictator's ass or is he coming around?

Cecilia Rodriguez Griffin's avatar

Ugh…I don’t follow Joe Rogen…I guess I should to troll him back. 🤢 I have seen some shared posts that show Joe Rogen is against Drump’s ICE policy.

Love it. Thank you. MAGA are followers with no independent though. They have a daddy fetish.

Freedom is not free. We have to fight for it. Thank you Ben for being the force to lead the way for truth and democracy.

Gene Wood's avatar

Thank you Meidas .. I am so sad and mad when I see video of the fat white boys, usually 5 or 6 on one, slam a brown person to the ground, beat them up and haul them off to god knows where .. the last one I just saw was a delivery person, working .. you white racists supremacists said it was all about getting the “bad people” off the streets .. well, you keep showing who you think the bad people are .. you are not Americans, you are American gestapo agents!

We must find a way to intervene when we see these, surround the assholes and take them down, and help them disappear!

Richard D Frost's avatar

More like American TRAITOR gestapo agents. I would not honor such scumbags by calling them Americans! Most are either criminals, or wanna be criminals as well as former insurrectionists Taco Tits pardoned! All of them are showing WHO they are by even working with those NAZIS! THEY ARE ALL TRAITORS! TREAT THEM AS SUCH! GLOVES OFF!

Roberta Houle's avatar

Gene Wood. “We must find a way to intervene when we see these, surround the assholes and take them down, and help them disappear.” I think that’s a great idea. People in various areas are doing it successfully. But people have to be ready to join the fight.

Catherine Voight's avatar

Thank you for all the important coverage. While corporate media goes blank on weekends, MT carries on and brings important developments to light. There is a reason Trump releases his bombshells on Fridays. He knows there is minimal coverage on CNN and MSNBC. Bring it on, MT! This is going to be a big day. Stay Strong Ukraine!

We will stand with you every day all day no matter what. I swear I want to change my career path to help what you guys do. Very grateful for what you guys do.

If you have the attention of fox and others, you are certainly making an impact that makes the sean hannity $20,000,000 a year contracts nervous! At some point those lying, trump, sycophants will need to look for some honest employment. Keep making them nervous and keep up the good fight!

Bombay Troubadour's avatar

It is almost impossible to make a Sean Hannity understand, when his paycheck depends on him NOT understanding.

MPT's avatar

Well put! Upton Sinclair is nodding in agreement.

Roberta Houle's avatar

Are you saying he makes $20,000,000 a year? 20 million dollars. Am I reading this correctly? WTF???

MPT's avatar

Sorry, I forgot about his radio show. I was being conservative. AI: Sean Hannity earns approximately $25 million per year from Fox News and an additional $20 million from his radio show, totaling around $45 million annually.

And that doesn't include private gigs and appearances. No wonder he'll lie and talk nonsense all day, everyday! It not surprising he is a trump bobblehead at those ridiculous salaries.

Roberta Houle's avatar

That is absolutely vile. I guess people sell their soul for a lot less. He’s pretty much sold everything for this. What a bobble head is right. 🤬

Meidas models the journalism that I learned about in high school and have valued ever since. Keep it up!

As an older youngster Ben & an American 🇺🇸 Canadian 🇨🇦 to boot I stand with you & the freedom fight for Democracy. Thankyou stay the course with fierce resistance and humanity.

Sunlight is the best sanitizer. Keep pulling the liars, cheats, and defilers of our Constitution into the sunlight. Keep yourselves and loved ones safe

Karen Johnson's avatar

Wow, that's the way to break out of the starting gate hard and fast on a Monday morning! Who needs coffee when Ben fires up the engines like this? Oh, wait, coffee still helps... but the Meidas Mighty are ready to face the week with power and resolve.
