If there ever was a two bit punk, it’s Jesse Watters.

Jessica Tarlov runs circle around Jesse Watters ! Would love to see her on MTN but guessing not possible with Faux contract? That would surely send Watters into orbit !

No offense to two bits which still has more value than Jesse Watters. Jesse Dimes?

I'd like to give Waters my two cents: wipe that smirk off your stupid face.

Keep up the great work pounding these evildoers. I’m 76 years old, so is my husband. We worked and saved but we do rely on our Social Security. I believe they are going to take a wrecking ball to it. But we will fight these bastards every step of the way.

I'm 89 yrs old and I worry about my little teeny bit of social security too. I can't get out and do things like I used to but I am a subscriber on Meidas for as long as I live. I look forward to it everyday. It gives me to courage to hope for righteousness once again.

Good for you. There are 75million others like you that wait on a monthly check.

Boomer here.

The Boomers are here in force.

Boomers are the OG of civil protest

The black civil rights movement, womens rights, gay rights, the Vietnam War, the Grape Boycott (who remembers the grape boycott?)

Boomers are the OG of Civil protest.

With that said, our spirit is willing but our bodies are weak (we do not have the vim and vigor of our youth). What we boomers CAN do is subscribe, become a paid subscriber to MeidasPlus.

Only $10 a month (cancel at any time)

Our monthly small contribution is just one blade of grass in the great grass roots movement, just one blade of grass. But growing shoulder to shoulder with others we become a great carpet of grass roots exceeding the prairies of the great plains. WE are the great grass roots.

Yes we do call and e-mail and write letters, and sometimes show up for protests if they are in our area. We are helping in the ways we are able to now.

Boomers remember our youth and how WE did change the culture and society.

We know it can be done, we can put Trump in check, we just have to put our shoulders to the task and do now, that which we still CAN do.

If you are not already a subscriber please subscribe.

You will feel good about it.

Only $10 a month (cancel at any time)

You will feel good about it.

At 66 I'm more the vanguard of GenX, but the Bommer protests is what I grew up seeing as a normal course of affairs, and I know peaceful protest works. I'm not flush and don't get around as well either, but I spend a lot of time encouraging those younger than us about how this actually works. I hate that I'm more useful for cheerleading than playing the game, but it has to be done. The difference I see now is that during Nam most of the protests were done by the younger generation who didn't want to die in a pointless war, or POC demanding they be treated equally. Now the protests are attended by every generation that is mobile enough to be there. It only takes 3.5% of a population to make change, and we'll get there very soon, I think. It's a matter of time and keeping up the effort.

very encouraging comments for the resistance

Expand full comment

I completely agree with all your observations.

But how did you come up with the 3.5% figure?

Curious.

Expand full comment

Me too.

Expand full comment

Look up the 3.5% rule

Expand full comment

Okay I will do it.

But please give me some search terms to use.

I can't just google "The 3.5% rule"

I need something more, thank you.

Expand full comment

It's called the 3.5% rule. You don't need more.

Olderwoman (I'm one, too), I'm not as spry as I used to be, but it's time we stood up (or sat down) for ourselves. I can't march any more. So I just bought a folding camp stool and when the young ones march, I sit. My presence is as important as marching--maybe more so because it's obvious I had to work hard to get there.

Expand full comment

Love this! So true. We can do much good by encouraging those who have the energy to do more.

Expand full comment

We can do much good by supporting them--financially, and by writing and calling our legislators. Everybody must do something!

Especially if you create a good sign!

I collected protest signs from the women's march in 2017. One of my faves was of a very beautiful, well dressed old woman sitting in a wheelchair holding up a handmade sign that said: "Honey, your gun doesn't make your dick look bigger. It makes you look like a bigger dick."

17yrs in '65 in the middle of Voter rights protests for Pete's sake..

almost 60 yrs later still protesting for rights, who would've thunk 🤭

Expand full comment

One of the protest sign pix I collected from the 2017 women's march was hand written and held by an old woman in a wheelchair. It read: "Ninety, nasty, and not giving up!"

Another one read: "My arms are tired from holding up this sign since the 1960s"

More for inspiration:

"2/3rds of Trump's wives were immigrants, proving once again we need immigrants to do jobs most Americans wouldn't do."

"Immigrants are more thoroughly vetted than Trump's cabinet"

"So bad even introverts are here"

"My vagina has had better lineups than Trump's inauguration (sad!)"

And this one was held by a young woman dressed as a suffragette: "I time traveled for THIS?"

Already subbed for a year. Already feeling very good about the idea that I might be helping (just a little) to turn the tide against RWNJ media.

Keep calling out the liars, and keep fighting the good fight.

Hi Sharon, I just celebrated my 70th birthday and feel the same. It helps me somewhat to know that so many Maga cultists will suffer under the felon! Not much of a consolation, but it does make me smile!😄👍

Trump is already manipulating the stock market, changing the tariffs daily, telling his billionaire supporters how to day trade on his inside trading schemes using tariffs. Like in 2008 citizens 401k' will be 201k's. Billionaires draining citizens savings and putting it into their offshore tax haven accounts. Of course the SEC will be 'investigating'. Oh wait the SEC headed by some Trump sycophant. What is really sad is that even Nancy Pelosi joined in with insider trading when legislation was proposed a few years ago to stop it. She actually said that insider trading should be allowed by her and her house members and senate members and presumably the president and cabinet members. She said this was because she is a "Capitalist".

Well, the Stock Market is not liking anything that is happening. The Dow closed donw over 400 points today. The NASDAQ down almost 500 points and the S&P 500 down over 100 points.

Tesla stock closed down another $15. It had a high at the end of 2023 of over $400 per share and not it's down to $263 per share. Musk's net worth has dropped from over $400 Billion dollars last Fall to 347.7 billion USD today. His worth is not in cash, but on paper, so the value of his stock portfolio and his companies changes his net worth every day.

Target is down as well... the price hikes they announced to cover tariffs, the 40 day boycott and other announcements and they are not performing very well.

So sad for them all.

Expand full comment

They earned it and they deserve even worse. May they continue to crash.

Then Musk no doubt will try to make up for it by stealing more government contracts from his competitors using all the data he downloaded from govt. databases. Most of his money originates from our tax dollars and govt. loans. Huge welfare queen.

We have seen worse... JFK assassination on Thanksgiving day, 11/22/1963. Assassination of Medgar Evers 6/12/1963, Malcom X 2/21/1965, Martin Luther King, Jr. 4/4/1968, Robert Kennedy 6/6/1968. Then there were the rallies that resulted in shootings, like at Berkley, called "Bloody Thursday" on 5/15/1969. Then there was Kent State, called the Kent State Massacre on 5/4/1970. The 1967 Detroit Riot, the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests, the 1968 King Assassination Riots, the 1967 Watts riots, and the 1968 Protests.

There are more, but this was a decade of severe division in this country, severe unrest and a lot of people took to the streets. We were all young back then and I don't know about you, but I remember a great deal of this chaos, mayhem and unrest. We fought for our rights then and we all, including our young people will fight for them now!

As the "elderly" - we can share all this with everyone to let them know this is not a first by a long shot - after all, it was severe civil unrest and disobedience that formed this country. Does anyone actually believe that the people that live here are a bunch of passive acceptors? If anyone does, they are sadly mistaken!
