Despite my fears as a as an 85 year old woman, I believe in freedom and democracy. I am very appreciative of you and your brothers and the community of the Medias Mighty😎💖
As a 66 year old woman, I couln't agree more. I truly appreciate the efforts the Meidas brothers and all of thier ally's are persuing and helping ensure our country has a chance. Right now, my 2 young adult grandaughters do not have the same rights in Texas that I had when I was their age. That can not be allowed to stand. We must stay informed and stay engaged.
I am new to Substack, but started with Medias before we hit1 million subscribers. I was into the Peace Corps in Colombia mid 60s. On my return, as a nurse/ nurse practitioner, I did rural and migrant healthcare and women’s healthcare before and after Roe. I now do exercise/ strength training for older adults.
You have made my morning bright with all your likes💖
I exercise in a class, I'm retired, I play in a concert band. Nice to make your acquaintance. I spent my entire career in engineering and technical. I was with Meidas 5 yr ago. Isn't Substack wonderful.
I’m 84, and I agree completely. I only hope those working to save our democracy have proper protections in place. MTN are the true patriots, we have been grateful for their leadership in the past, but in the future we will need each other more than ever.
After seeing who he’s picking for the Cabinet, it’s getting even worse. The word to describe the situation is kakistocracy, in other words, government by the worst people.
Thank you MTN for sharing information we need to go forward.
Hello Sharon welcome. Thank you for your comments. We are in this to share thoughts and feelings, to form strategies and push backs. Adelante! Forward in Spanish!
The demagogs like to quote Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream”inappropriately. The more relevant quote from that speech is “Willful ignorance and conscientious stupidity are the greatest threats to democracy “.
Ben, Brett, Geordie and the incredible Meidas community,
Thank you for all you’re doing in this fight for our lives. We’re with you and will get through this pending nightmare and come through the other side.
720 days to the midterms and a ton of work to do between now and then!!
"The Meidas Mighty" is perfect. This has been a great gathering point, and I'm so glad to see it grow into true relevance. At the age of 88, this is my go-to read in the morning. Delighted to be a subscriber.
I find it encouraging to see how so many of us in our 80's are voicing support for resistance and are willing to be an active part of it. We've both seen and remember a lot of history so we know what's at stake if we do nothing. Together we can cause a lot of "good trouble" for a wannabe dictator and his fake patriots.
Yes, I’m a Meidas Mighty follower for the past three years and at 81 I don’t intend to be bullied by MAGA pssants - I’m on a limited income but I can do a lot that doesn’t cost much to slow down the X-45/47 train…
Absolutely!!! I lost my veteran of war papa April 23, and it’s so comforting seeing all of u out and voicing your wisdom and love✨🫂🤘✨ Any info/wisdom any of u want to toss out here and there for us to have to share with our younger generations will not go over looked I’m absolutely sure❣️ As I’m also sure alot in the world don’t have or have never had the opportunity to learn and grow from all y’all’s experiences and wisdom🥰✨🤘
I agree but a good balance besides here is next level soul podcast and Sons Of Liberty 😉 Reminding us all to stay in our light and become fully one and a breath of anger for the atrocities that are coming and happening ✨🫂🤘 I hope we all gather on discord also to stay together!!!
Sadly, in this era of Trump, death threats indicate that you are doing a good job - stay vigilant, Ben & your brothers & team members, your wives and children - you are very special people whose dedication to normality & democracy are an inspiration to so many. Although I live in the UK, my blood runs cold at what is in store for the good people of the US and I fear for the repercussions Trump and his fascist cronies will unleash, not only on the US, but around the planet.
I’m in the UK as well Nigel. And having just made 85 worry so much not for myself but for my children and even more so for my grandchildren. It is interesting that so many of the responders here are in our 80s - we have lived long enough to be able to know right from wrong - even if we haven’t quite managed that in our own lives ❓❗️I will remain subscribed to MIDAS - keeping me to remain hopeful 👍
Keep up the fight Ben! You have got an extra package now who's going to grow up and realize how great her dad is and what he did for democracy.
We will get there eventually, there's just too many feckless morons right now for us to see how bright that future is.
I think sometimes people forget that great leaders are great because they understand the responsibility to their own humanity and how vital that is to be shared with others. It might make you feel vulnerable, I don't think it does. Its gonna make you a cool and "hip" dad.
Hi! New subscriber here. I’ve canceled my NYT and WaPo subscriptions. I no longer trust corporate media (haven’t for some time now). Meidas will be my #1 source (as well as a few others like Jeff Tiedrich). I am happy to be apart of the Meidas+ community. Good day, all!
Don’t forget the rest of the mighty network and a few great others like democracy now, Brian Tyler cohen, Walter Masterson, sons of liberty, rebel hq, impact this now, really american, Luke Beasley, occupy democrats is👌 too, and hoping to see AOC start using her twitch channel more✨🙌✨I would also suggest checking out next level soul as a means to keep us guided in staying in our light🙌✨ Which is so vital! I’ve not heard of Jeff so I will check him out 😉
Ben, joined in 2016 when Frump got elected and saw you grow. As despicable as this is, it means you and the brothers have a place - and it’s visible! Let’s regroup and organize, battle lost but live to fight another day! Keep safe. ❤️🩹🫶🏽
Damn right, Ben. We are all in this together and pushing back with facts and actual real feelings is how we take back America. Onwards, together! Meidas Mighty!
So thankful for everyone at Meidas Touch and all you do.
We learn so much more than current political events and climate. We are, also, gaining an education in law, public demeanor, and strong moral support amongst the Meidas Mighty.
I am thankful for you and for all our members 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

That's what our Resistance needs to be called "The All for one club"

Sharon, thanks for teaching me a new word. “Kakistocracy” coming,”
resistance already here.
The quote is from the Three Musketeers by (I think ) Dumas.

Correction on spelling - apologies Jordi💕
I have 2 emotions — sad and mad. Well that second one needs an intensifier. I’m FUCKING mad. We ARE the Meidas Mighty!

Not 80 yet. Only 70 but my political curiosity and activism started when I was 8.
Love Meidas mighty

Simon Rosenberg says we are calling it the opposition- stronger than the resistance. I’m in at 71.

We are all in this together, and we thank you for all you do!
I am so sorry for the threats. You have done so much for this community, and I am grateful for all of it. Protect yourselves and your families.

You are the lifeblood of the truth.
Keep up the fight Ben! You have got an extra package now who's going to grow up and realize how great her dad is and what he did for democracy.

Be safe and please continue to inform us of the truth! It matters! A fan and a paid subscriber!🙋🏼♀️💙🇺🇸
Hi! New subscriber here. I’ve canceled my NYT and WaPo subscriptions. I no longer trust corporate media (haven’t for some time now). Meidas will be my #1 source (as well as a few others like Jeff Tiedrich). I am happy to be apart of the Meidas+ community. Good day, all!
May I suggest you check out Heather Cox Richardson as another reliable source?
Hi! I follow her and Joyce Vance. ☺️

Hi! Yes thanks. I follow most of these folks on YouTube. They have kept me sane. ☺️
I agree
Love this pro-democracy movement. Keep up the good work!!

Me too.
Please stay safe. I don’t know where we all would be without you, Ben.
Question: Under Trump administration does the FBI investigate domestic terrorism at all?
No, they won't. They normalized it. Over half of Americans are good with it.
He's planning to try and eliminate the FBI.
And it’s the FBI that is investigating all the threats against trump
We have your back Ben!
MeidasMIghy span the entire planet and we all stand with you Brett.
You have Churchills spirit...."We will never surrender"
Damn right, Ben. We are all in this together and pushing back with facts and actual real feelings is how we take back America. Onwards, together! Meidas Mighty!
