Hey Meidas Mighty, Ben here.
Every Thursday at 1pm ET/10am PT, Brett and I go live for our Meidas Meet-Up on Substack Live over at the Meidas+ Substack. And if you missed this week’s episode, trust me—you’re going to want to catch the replay. We were joined by former U.S. Attorney and Deputy Assistant Attorney General Harry Litman, host of the Talking Feds podcast and one of the most respected legal minds in the country.
The main topic? Trump’s staggering national security breach and the even more dangerous cover-up that followed. Harry didn’t mince words—and neither did we.
We’re talking about real-time military operations being leaked on encrypted messaging apps by people in Trump’s orbit. According to national security expert Malcolm Nance (who Harry had just spoken to), this could be the worst breach of national security in U.S. history. And yet Trump’s Secretary of Defense and his lackeys are doing… absolutely nothing. No investigation. No accountability. Just deflection and lies.
Let me say it plainly: if anyone else—literally anyone not named Trump or in his inner circle—had done this, the FBI would be knocking down their doors. Instead, they’re gaslighting the public, claiming “there was no classified info” as if our eyes didn’t read the actual war plans. It’s insane.
This is what happens when autocracy and incompetence collide—and it’s exactly why we created the MeidasTouch Network in the first place: to shine a light on this madness and build a movement rooted in facts, truth, and real accountability.
Harry brought the receipts. From explaining how Trump is misusing the Alien Enemies Act to justify throwing innocent people in concentration camps, to dissecting a rare but welcome 7-2 Supreme Court decision upholding Biden’s ghost gun regulations, Harry gave us a front-row seat to the legal fight for our democracy.
We also talked about the resilience of the courts—because yes, despite the chaos, many judges are standing firm. But they’re under attack, too. Trump’s MAGA cult is targeting judges and even their families with threats and intimidation tactics.
Here’s the bottom line: Trump and his cronies are not just corrupt—they’re dangerous. And if we want to stop them, we need to stay informed, stay organized, and show up like never before.
