URGENT Sunday Message from MEIDAS FOUNDER

By Ben Meiselas

Hello Meidas Mighty.

I want to start my Sunday message by thanking the Riverside County Democrats for inviting me to their JFK Award Luncheon in Palm Springs yesterday.

I am grateful for being named their Independent Journalist of the Year. I got to bring my family to Palm Springs for the ceremony, and my 15-month-old daughter loved the desert. Thank you, Leigh McGowan, aka PoliticsGirl, for introducing my award.

Next, I want to thank our subscribers to this Substack. I gave you all a shoutout during my award speech. You’re the backbone of this network and you’ve allowed us to expand and grow so that we now get more views and engagement on digital platforms than Fox and all cable news.

For those who aren’t yet subscribed, we hope you will subscribe now and help the MeidasTouch Network continue to grow and expand. Please subscribe now if you can.

I am drinking a coffee this morning from a nearby coffee shop called KOFI in Palm Springs. It’s my usual black coffee.

I was able to walk around Downtown Palm Springs last night where I met so many Meidas Mighty who came up to me. It’s incredible to hear how much this network has meant to your lives. I was so touched hearing your stories.

This has been one of the most important weeks in the history of the MeidasTouch Network. We’ve taken a significant lead over Fox in the digital ratings.

As you know from earlier posts, the combined attacks on us from Trump and Fox backfired on them. They are weaker than ever, and the MeidasTouch Network and the pro-democracy movement are stronger than ever.

Trump and the GOP will continue to unravel. There will be more resignations in Congress by GOP Members in the coming months. There will be more serious infighting in the GOP caucus before the year is done. Trump’s approval will continue to plummet.

During my trip to Palm Springs, the one thing I kept hearing over and over is that Democrats and those who love democracy are feeling hope again. The energy we need to take back our country from this fascist regime is back.

There is no doubt that Trump has caused grievous harm to our nation and the world. But I think for the first time in a long time, people are starting to think about and reflect on a world with no more Trump in the future, where we can rebuild and focus on bringing love and joy and empathy and truth back.

These are my reflections on this Sunday from Palm Springs. I am grateful to call you all my friends and grateful to be in this fight with you. Thanks for all you do.

And for those who haven’t yet subscribed, MeidasTouch needs you now more than ever, so please subscribe if you can.

Thanks again, everyone.
