The protests this weekend have me feeling energized. How about you?
This week is not going to be easy, but the Trump regime has already started the week embroiled in another massive scandal, as we learned yesterday that Pete Hegseth was sending war plans to his wife and brother in another Signal text chat.
The Trump regime is rotting from within at an exponential decay level.
They can say “fake news” over and over to their perverse delight, but this regime is cooked crisp and heading toward the dumpster.
The schtick has run thin.
The all-caps vomit-inducing posts are just gross.
The lies and gaslighting are obvious.
The cruelty is pathetic.
The raw incompetence and idiocy are humiliating on an international scale.
Trump and his MAGA minions look so very small.
They look weird and perverse.
Yes, they are still dangerous, but they look and act like weak, pathetic, vile fools.
I want you to approach this week by appreciating your power.
You have accomplished so much already.
You’ve stood up to an authoritarian regime and you’re not going to stop, are you?
You’ve shown what true patriotism is about.
You’ve held the line.
You’ve shared your stories, or you’ve attended rallies, or you comforted others, or you’ve volunteered your time—or all of the above.
You’ve sacrificed so much already, and you are seeing the results you are having. Trump did not break us. He made us stronger. He fortified this community.
I expect difficult days ahead.
Trump has taken steps that our adversaries could only dream of to harm our economy, to harm our alliances, and to harm our functioning government.
I think we have to take this in two steps.
First, we have to save our democracy. And second, we have to rebuild.
Trump will not go out quietly, and as his power diminishes, he will inflict maximum damage on our country.
We must have each other’s backs.
We must continue to take to the streets peacefully and in bigger numbers.
We must grow the resistance bigger.
There will come a time when we will need to rebuild everything from the devastation that has been caused. That will be a generational project—and a worthy one.
But for now, we chop wood.
Day in and day out.
We don’t cede an inch.
The streets, the courts, the media. We win it all.
We control the board and push back with the force as if our life depends on it—because it does.
We will not let the Trump regime break us.
We will never submit. We will fight. We will win.
Our goal at the MeidasTouch Network is to meet the moment each day and then build for generations.
We worked closely with the 50501 leadership this weekend to make sure we covered the protests across the country and used our platform to amplify the true heroes.
Over a million people protested across the country, but apparently corporate news was too busy focusing on other things to cover some of the largest mass protests in American history.
Programming is about choices.
How you use your platform says a lot about you.
Are you agents of freedom and democracy or tools of the regime?
We know where we stand at the MeidasTouch Network.
We remain the most-watched news network on digital platforms in America and the most downloaded podcast in America precisely because we stand with the people. We are built by the people. We cover the protests, the town halls, the shadow hearings, and more.
Let’s start this week strong.
We would love for you to subscribe to the MeidasTouch Network now to help us grow.
The MeidasTouch Network is currently the fastest-growing Substack by subscribers in the world.
You’ve helped us beat Fox News and Joe Rogan on YouTube and in podcast downloads—even though they’ve got limitless resources.
Please subscribe today if you can, or gift subscriptions to people you know, and let’s keep growing.
Thanks, Meidas Mighty.
Let’s win this week!
I’m viewing all this from UK. What Meidas Touch and the Meidas Mighty are doing is amazing. Keep up the good work, and all the very best to each and every one of you.
Here’s an email I sent to my rep & 11 Senators this morning. Seems appropriate….
How many more examples of AMATEUR HOUR in the White House do we have to endure? A mistaken takeover letter to HARVARD. On & off tariffs against Canada and Mexico and then the WORLD. Give up on peace talks between Russia and Ukraine after a few weeks. Hegseth AGAIN! Pardon J6 defendants. I could go on… In less than 100 days DONALD TRUMP has thoroughly earned his third impeachment.
I wonder why I never get a response?
