During a rally Trump said that his political ally Elon Musk had an advanced understanding of the voting machines used in Pennsylvania, a critical swing state that was key to Trump's victory in November.
"He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers," Trump told the crowd. "And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."
"Did Donald Trump just say that Elon Musk helped him rig the election?" journalist David Leavitt asked. Jasmine Crockett of Texas also took to X to ask if Trump was "confessing to yet another damn crime." Another Democratic congressman, Daniel Goldman of New York, also called for an investigation.
According to Greg Palast and Thom Hartmann if all legal ballots were counted, Trump would have lost the states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Vice-President Kamala Harris would have won the Presidency with 286 electoral votes.
Conservatively, hundreds of thousands of potential registered Democratic voters did not vote. This can be established via expert witness testimony. That conduct constitutes crimes -- election intereference under state and federal law.
And it doesnt include the admissions. The Russians admit, even brag about it.
That has been the question since Novemeber 6. Biden never reported the extent of voting interference. Same thing is happening in Europe. Musk may be dodo ("agency") here but in Europe, he may have put his head in a noose. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEnJORtSUB0
Elonia was the money man to the swing state voters! some given 100 bucks might feel obligated to vote for the bought raffle entry seller? he later admitted the million dollar winner was "pre chosen" so? what else was?
but hold on? what members had already said in the electoral college they were leaning towards the Donald? remember Don Jr. 's email to Mark Meadows reporting on the fake electors the last time? so next time some loyalist electors! no need for a question Mark Donald boasted about it!
Yes, he did! Thank you Daniel! This as well as what Joe Rogan stated on his podcast that "Elon was" screwing "with his phone all night on some app or something and around" 9pm "he shows me his phone and says HE WON," he left the party and when home"
Ben's optimism is, to a degree, warranted. Right now, however, I'm concerned about Hegseth's appointment. As of today, we've elected a felon and rapist to the Presidency, and have just place the security of the country in the hands of a drunk.
"No big deal" some might want to believe; except, of course, for the potential massive loss of life of our uniformed service people, men and women. Because of a drunk's ill-informed, uncaring and muddled decisions.
We're a long way from turning things around, Ben. As a former senior Army officer, I worry about our men and women in uniform; and our uninformed, clearly uncaring, current leadership, starting at the top.
On another site, I said the tattoos are disqualifying -- indicia of membership in a racist death cult.
He openly advocated violation of the Code of Conduct and the Geneva Conventions. Should have a couple of Article 15s over that. Wonder who was his commanding officer?
Republican women in the Senate in effect, acquiesce to sexual harassment. Ex Col/ Ernst, Marsha Blackburn, Katie Britt, Shelley Moore Capito, Deb Fischer, Cindy Hyde-Smith. Cynthia Lummis, and Ashley Moody are political whores.
You ain’t the only Veteran who feels that way. I feel as though I am watching the destruction of our constitution and way of life and I cannot stand even looking at that bastard in the White House. He IS the person referenced in the oath of office when it says “All enemies, foreign AND domestic”. He certainly fits that bill. His tongue should have turned Black when he recited that Oath of OFFICE. He’s a damn Traitor.
I am not a veteran but every generation of my family have served. Thank you All. My people are shouting down from heaven at the disgusting display they are making of our military. Saddest week in US history. Hands down
Agree instead of making important decisions he might be busy curing his hangover. Plus this position will be high stress which will lead him to drink more.
I'd like to know if and when Veterans march against this animal. I am 100% disabled from my service yet I would BE there! Damn eight. He's after us too, big time.
My granddaughter is currently in basic training, Airforce and I am very worried about her and what will happen with that alcoholic and sexual predator in charge.
First of all: Please do not use the name of our chrisian God in the context of your curses!
God stands mostly for love, grace and mercy. There is nothing f-ing in his context.!
Second: Every service member is permanently affected by the the decisions within their chain of command. What people are expressing here are only apprehensions which they (maybe wrongly) deduct from their experiences connected with what they see and know.
I think we all strongly hope, we won't see these to come true. But they exist and we talk about them.
Third: I cannot match your 1938-remark to Peru.
The same remark wirh regard to France, I am tempted to match to the so called "Case Green" (german annexation of Czechoslovakia). Here you should rather have a look to german politics at that time and compare it with recent american announcements. As far as I am concerned, I am absolutely afraid of some "Case White" (american annexation of Greenland / Denmark) which absolutely will affect not only the mentioned service-members.
And you don't need to shove your 'religious' crap at anyone. Keep it among your fellow 'christians'. I don't want to read it; if I did, I'd go to 'church'.
Every time idiot Peter cusses other users I report. Peter is a miserable human who really hates himself. A poor excuse of a human being. Most likely he lived in his mommy’s basement.
It's a good point. Musk infused huge money in PA. Using the "lottery" scam to buy votes was his doing. We clearly have an open-air, oligarchy-driven, authoritarian threat. We resent the obscene open capitulation of giants like Musk , Bezos, Zuckerberg. But you don't hear so much about the other radical rich, like Koch and Uihleins. They have spent decades funding right-wing radicalism. Murdoch transformed free speech into misinformation propaganda despite $$$Millions in lost lawsuits! We must find methods to neutralize big money. Repeat the disintegration of malicious people like Giuliani for his vicious attacks on people. This is the value of Meidas. Spread the word and organize.
Love having Sunday morning coffee with you…if you ever make coffee at home, try putting a big spoon of homemade whipped cream in the bottom of your cup before you add the coffee…it’s delicious! Thanks Ben, for all MTN does (just finished thanking Marc Elias for his amazing work too and thanks for highlighting his critical work so I would know to support him too)!!! My husband and I wear our anti-trump shirts everywhere we go and The Meidas Mighty might be interested to know that we get compliments all the time! People come up to us ALL the time and thank us for doing it! There are a lot of good people out there… a lot of people just like us and we can ALL make a difference in our own ways! ❤️
Judith, you might be pleasantly surprised. When Trump was first elected in 2016 I bought a cricket machine and I made us tons of anti-Trump T-shirts, the most popular of which had pro America anti Trump on the front as you can see in our picture. And on the back we wrote the truth in many different ways. The most popular shirt was the one on the back that said TRUMP: CORRUPT RACIST LIAR TRAITOR. We wore them every day on our bike rides through the most populated areas of market common in Myrtle Beach, as well as all along the beachroad. I was out of my comfort zone the entire time, but I’ll be 70 this year and I’ve lived my whole life in freedom, and I’ll be damned if my daughters and my grandchildren will grow up with less freedom than I had, at least without putting up a fight! Also, we had anti-Trump, anti-republican, and resistance car magnets plastered all over the car. We were the victims of road rage multiple times, but amazingly only had our car vandalized once! We attended countless protest marches across multiple states, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Washington DC, sent hundreds of postcards to voters in swing states, and contributed thousands of dollars to civil rights organizations, and democratic candidates. Right now our car is sporting our ‘DONT BLAME ME I VOTED KAMALA’ magnets, and it’s fun to look in the rearview mirror and see people‘s reactions! I see a lot of smiles and some folks take pictures while they’re laughing! In the beginning of his first term, people would come up to us in a store and whisper, ‘I love your shirts’, but by the end of his term people were shouting it loudly across the store! So you see, it DID have an impact! We felt it gave people hope that all was not lost…
My point in telling you all of this, is that everyone has different tolerance levels, plus we were already retired and had no bosses to worry about, but there’s always something you can do! It doesn’t have to be some of the dangerous and scary stuff we did and that we continue to do (thank goodness we saved all the original Trump shirts never thinking we’d use them again, but we kept them to make Freedom quilts for the grandchildren so they’ll know what their grandparents did when America called). Sending postcards to voters in swing states for example, is something you can do for the midterms! It’s not too expensive if you can afford the stamps and no one will know what you’re doing! So if everyone does something to help, I know it will move us forward, because it did last time! But I totally get your reluctance to wear the shirts, because you’d be crazy not to be worried about it! But the fact that you’re already part of the Meidas mighty family tells me that you’re already contributing in this way! Anything freedom loving Americans do to help the cause is more than welcome…ALWAYS!
We all need to help get RID of that Traitor and by wearing that T-shirt we can display our own bravery and send a message that plenty of people are willing to fight against that dangerous Bastard and his ignorant and destructive, psychotic actions against his own people. Yes WE can, without ever acting-out on that thought. Keep Wearing Those Shirts, with Pride!
Thanks for those kind words Ray…as long as we’re all doing something to help the cause of Democracy in America, there’s no way we lose in the long run! We all have to remember that this is a marathon, not a dash!
You guys are the best. American democracy has made it this far because of people like you. The truth will prevail irregardless of the lies being told, as long as the truthful follow your lead. It’s time for boldness in the face of darkness. God bless America.
There are many organizations that sponsor this! The way it works is, you go to their website and sign up for however many you want to send. There is a charge for the postcards (around 7 cents a piece, but it can vary by organization and by how many you do). Then they send you the postcards, and a list of registered democrats and give you an idea what to say, and you supply the postcard stamps (which are cheaper than letter stamps BTW).
The one we used most recently was https://www.centerforcommonground.org/ (Randy says he likes this org because they assign one of their regional organizers to provide guidance for you)!
Now if you can't click on this then just type it in. Randy says they're gearing up for a postcard campaign to send postcards to voters in Wisconsin who will vote to KEEP their liberal State Supreme Court! We have sent them for both Presidential and Mid-Term elections, so this would be a specific mailing to help Wisconsin, that Randy is going to participate in, but you could contact them and ask to be contacted for the 2026 mid-term elections! Also, if you google 'democratic postcard campaigns' a whole list of potential organizations come up (PLEASE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE ORGANIZATION IS LEGITIMATE - IF YOU'RE NOT SURE SEND ME THE NAME AND I'LL CHECK FOR YOU). If you have any more questions about this, please don't hesitate to contact me here! We've done everything from letters, and postcards to phone banking too (phone banking requires a really high level of being able to handle rejection LOL...just warning you)! There are so many safe things people can do! And thanks for asking about this!!!
Hello, - I am Grateful 🙏 to you for your post here,, and for your courage as well as your work. I am still texting and sending fact-based messages and Medias videos to friends (that oppose my opinion) "THEY" - claim they don't watch the vids and of course in their reply back they focus the blame of everything on President Biden. I never dreamed a Good President that has done everything in his ability over 50 yrs of government work has not been given NEARLY the credit he DESERVES AND EARNED. Yes, he has made a few "Bad" calls, and I'm not with this brigade thinking Mr. Biden is perfect - BUT , Anyone with ANY real common sense could and should make that a major PRIORITY - And the bonus is : That would drive Frump even more bat-shit crazy, And maybe would land him in a straight jacket in an Asylum!! Yeah - THAT'S Where he Truly belongs !! -NOT- leading our Loving Home Country. / PS - 🙏Victory to UKRAINE FOREVER!! And maybe after that they'll name a newly built city - Zelensky!! I believe that'd be most deserved in honor of him AS well as Every Ukrainian Soldier.💕😃 And maybe even put soldiers names engraved in the cement walkways lining streets - or make a memorial building Dedicated to ALL their soldiers. And also a Memorial in Honor of All the citizens that have done work to help their soldiers in battle. I wish to see the war end AnD Ukraine be the Victor's !! They need help and support from any and ALL of us with a heart and soul.💕
I’ve heard of nuts.com, and that sounds amazing! I must confess to all of you serious coffee folks, I love coffee but am addicted to Keurig because I love the different flavors (and the instant delivery of fresh, hot coffee with minimal effort on my part 😬)! I admire those who grind their own beans and use a French press, and I LOVE the taste, but I’m afraid ‘LAZY’ gets in my way…LOL! Thanks for sharing and I’ll let my daughter know as she’s the one who used to make the French press coffee for me!
Ben reports Mexico refuses to let Trump's deportation planes land! Honor Mexican coffee! Made with 100% Arabica (Mexican) coffee beans and rum, Kahlúa coffee liqueur is one of the main ingredients in many of the world’s favorite cocktails.
From the White Russian, Black Russian and Mudslide, to the cocktail du jour… the Espresso Martini! Plus many more classics, old and new.
I use either Silk or Starbucks. They make almond milk flavored creamers. I am now trying the almond milk flavored creamer at Aldi. Not sure yet if my stomach will like that one.
We the medias family stands united. We don't back down and stand our ground. We fight like hell. We cannot let our country falter to the wayside. Grateful we have a pro-democracy outlet like Medias Touch. never surrender thank you Ben, Brett, and Jordy
I am so glad I found MeidasTouch. I will fight like hell for my future and the future of my children and grandchildren. My husband passed in July from stage 4 esophageal cancer. He was an honorable veteran who fought for this country. In a way I am glad he has passed so he can't see the disgusting way this country has disintegrated because of the orange clown.
It’s been a a tough week for sure. So much craziness, as expected and the need to find balance between being well informed and staying sane stronger than ever for me. I so appreciate the ever present fact checking reporting done by all those I follow on MTN. But that being said, it’s hard not to feel scared with all that’s being dismantled in our government, the reckless approvals of his cabinet picks and the 🍊 felon’s inflammatory/imperialistic rhetoric pissing off our allies.
Thank goodness for Meidas Touch. It’s where I get my news.
I just saw a video about how consumer confidence is lower. Who knew when you MAGA folks elected a crazy person who is nominating other crazy people and committing ethnic cleansing that people might get a bit nervous and think maybe I should hang on to my money for now?
We are with you, Ben. I'm in my favorite recliner, looking out over the lake behind our home and enjoying my hot coffee with you. My advantage I'm 30 feet away from the microwave to keep my coffee always hot, just like the Midas Mighty' spirit! Looking forward to Legal AF, just so important during this time.
I'm so grateful for your efforts - it makes all the difference to know you're there fighting the good fight in this way. Your articles are heartening, and if you can eliminate some of the redundancy they will be shorter, more concise, easier to read. But really, endless thanks, please don't give up! I'm sharing this all over the place!
So grateful to you and all of independent media who didn’t “Scarborough” by obeying in advance.
“Scarborough” as a verb! Love it.

Trump needs to have his executive functions checked. A hint, those are located in the frontal lobes of his cerebral cortex..
Must be a real Swiss Cheese in there 🤦
Did Trump admit that Musk fixed the vote in Pennsylvania?
How about Europe? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEnJORtSUB0
During a rally Trump said that his political ally Elon Musk had an advanced understanding of the voting machines used in Pennsylvania, a critical swing state that was key to Trump's victory in November.
"He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers," Trump told the crowd. "And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-elon-musk-voting-machine-2017657
"Did Donald Trump just say that Elon Musk helped him rig the election?" journalist David Leavitt asked. Jasmine Crockett of Texas also took to X to ask if Trump was "confessing to yet another damn crime." Another Democratic congressman, Daniel Goldman of New York, also called for an investigation.
Trump claimed that the 2020 election was stolen by Democrats. However, he has not made allegations against the results of the 2024 election. Musk openly said it was easy to rig election computers. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/114387655.cms?utm_source=contentofinterest&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=cppst
Election Truth Alliance (ETA), a self-described nonpartisan nonprofit organization that was founded in December 2024, said its analysis in Clark County, Nevada, produced results "consistent with vote manipulation." https://fox4kc.com/business/press-releases/ein-presswire/776992724/analysis-of-2024-election-results-in-clark-county-indicates-manipulation/
According to Greg Palast and Thom Hartmann if all legal ballots were counted, Trump would have lost the states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Vice-President Kamala Harris would have won the Presidency with 286 electoral votes.
This does not include effects from Russian psy ops to intimidate, scare, threaten voters and election officials. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_interference_in_the_2024_United_States_elections#:~:text=Russia's%20efforts%20represented%20the%20most,society%20and%20foster%20anti%2DAmericanism.
Conservatively, hundreds of thousands of potential registered Democratic voters did not vote. This can be established via expert witness testimony. That conduct constitutes crimes -- election intereference under state and federal law.
And it doesnt include the admissions. The Russians admit, even brag about it.
Thank you for breaking it downconcisely.
Why did Kamala concede?
So when is all of this going to be investigated? That's what I want to know.
That has been the question since Novemeber 6. Biden never reported the extent of voting interference. Same thing is happening in Europe. Musk may be dodo ("agency") here but in Europe, he may have put his head in a noose. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEnJORtSUB0
Let’s hope so Daniel.
Hopefully a real noose
Same.
Elonia was the money man to the swing state voters! some given 100 bucks might feel obligated to vote for the bought raffle entry seller? he later admitted the million dollar winner was "pre chosen" so? what else was?
but hold on? what members had already said in the electoral college they were leaning towards the Donald? remember Don Jr. 's email to Mark Meadows reporting on the fake electors the last time? so next time some loyalist electors! no need for a question Mark Donald boasted about it!
We will find out that this was another steal by rescumliCons. Greg Palast has done tremendous research on this. 👍🏼
Classic Sociopathic behavior--bragging about being evil.
Open an investigation. Jasmine Crockett, brilliant girl, is raising an alarm. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
she isn't a GIRL. Children are not old enough to serve in government.
Girl/woman.. depends on YOUR age/perspective!! Regardless, I like her a lot.. she’s good!
Yes, he did! Thank you Daniel! This as well as what Joe Rogan stated on his podcast that "Elon was" screwing "with his phone all night on some app or something and around" 9pm "he shows me his phone and says HE WON," he left the party and when home"
Investigate musk, space x communication satellite. Trump may be off limits but musk is not.
Yes, we know that CCF (Chief Convicted Felon) Dumpster cannot stop flapping his big fat mouth.
Ben's optimism is, to a degree, warranted. Right now, however, I'm concerned about Hegseth's appointment. As of today, we've elected a felon and rapist to the Presidency, and have just place the security of the country in the hands of a drunk.

He wouldn't even touch the Bile. That says a lot!
Bible! I agree.
We should call out fake religious people as CHINOs
.. Christian in name only
Agree instead of making important decisions he might be busy curing his hangover. Plus this position will be high stress which will lead him to drink more.
He will go a day without…then sneak one, to temper himself. Then he will make excuses and say I’m at home and just having one.
Then it will be more.
Unless he’s aggressively treats and gets help, he’s not going to be able to do it.
There was never any real admitting of any problems, just… won’t drink at work. Well..idiot, you’re on call 24 hours.
Ask any drug and alcohol counseling and they will tell you that quitting “cold turkey “ is very unlikely. It is the exception rather than the rule.
Cannot believe the Republicans approved him. I always voted for the man, not the party, but this is too much!!
Sandee - I couldn’t agree with you more.
I'd like to know if and when Veterans march against this animal. I am 100% disabled from my service yet I would BE there! Damn eight. He's after us too, big time.
My granddaughter is currently in basic training, Airforce and I am very worried about her and what will happen with that alcoholic and sexual predator in charge.
My Granson just completed basic training. I know exactly how you feel.
FAFO. You have no idea . Wash out your mouth with soap.
First of all: Please do not use the name of our chrisian God in the context of your curses!

Shriveled amigdala doesn't help
Then why are you here?
Yes, Peter, piss off. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
My words would be stronger. Like this Peter person who has a filthy mouth on his brainless head
Every nasty comment Peter makes I report. That hateful troll needs to be banned.
Thanks Leah!
You may be dlstinctive. But try to refrain from aggression...
Because their aggressive behaviour makes the contact to the real hard core Trumpers so difficult.
We don't want to run their playbook. And we still can reject them. And only when we are attacked, we should think about retaliation...
I see Peter's comment as a clear provocation. But we should not fall for that. 💙😉
He DM ed me! Not even opening it. Hater
Not worth the distraction
Thanks to whoever pulled his BS 👋
Point taken. But I'm all out of nice stephan. If i did ANY of these things were I live. I would be in big trouble.

What kind of postcards? And what would you write on it?
Thinking of doing this.. just me.😢

If you have any more questions about this, please don't hesitate to contact me here! We've done everything from letters, and postcards to phone banking too (phone banking requires a really high level of being able to handle rejection LOL...just warning you)! There are so many safe things people can do! And thanks for asking about this!!!
Wear it under another shirt!
Hello, - I am Grateful 🙏 to you for your post here,, and for your courage as well as your work. I am still texting and sending fact-based messages and Medias videos to friends (that oppose my opinion) "THEY" - claim they don't watch the vids and of course in their reply back they focus the blame of everything on President Biden. I never dreamed a Good President that has done everything in his ability over 50 yrs of government work has not been given NEARLY the credit he DESERVES AND EARNED. Yes, he has made a few "Bad" calls, and I'm not with this brigade thinking Mr. Biden is perfect - BUT , Anyone with ANY real common sense could and should make that a major PRIORITY - And the bonus is : That would drive Frump even more bat-shit crazy, And maybe would land him in a straight jacket in an Asylum!! Yeah - THAT'S Where he Truly belongs !! -NOT- leading our Loving Home Country. / PS - 🙏Victory to UKRAINE FOREVER!! And maybe after that they'll name a newly built city - Zelensky!! I believe that'd be most deserved in honor of him AS well as Every Ukrainian Soldier.💕😃 And maybe even put soldiers names engraved in the cement walkways lining streets - or make a memorial building Dedicated to ALL their soldiers. And also a Memorial in Honor of All the citizens that have done work to help their soldiers in battle. I wish to see the war end AnD Ukraine be the Victor's !! They need help and support from any and ALL of us with a heart and soul.💕
So true! Biden was absolutely the most productive president of my lifetime! And I’ll be 70 in October…
Me too. I’m surrounded by MAGA’s
👍✊❣️
I get my coffee beans from Nuts.com. Best coffee and I use almond milk creamer. The whipped cream is wonderful. I have tried that a couple times.
I’ve heard of nuts.com, and that sounds amazing! I must confess to all of you serious coffee folks, I love coffee but am addicted to Keurig because I love the different flavors (and the instant delivery of fresh, hot coffee with minimal effort on my part 😬)! I admire those who grind their own beans and use a French press, and I LOVE the taste, but I’m afraid ‘LAZY’ gets in my way…LOL! Thanks for sharing and I’ll let my daughter know as she’s the one who used to make the French press coffee for me!
Ben reports Mexico refuses to let Trump's deportation planes land! Honor Mexican coffee! Made with 100% Arabica (Mexican) coffee beans and rum, Kahlúa coffee liqueur is one of the main ingredients in many of the world’s favorite cocktails.
From the White Russian, Black Russian and Mudslide, to the cocktail du jour… the Espresso Martini! Plus many more classics, old and new.

Daniel, that’s awesome! I missed Ben’s report on that! How clever of Mexico! Thanks for sharing that…
I love Mexican coffee. That’s a great idea,
What kind of almond milk creamer do you use? Once I look at the ingredients it’s hard for me to use. But I tried making my own and it wasn’t so good.
I use either Silk or Starbucks. They make almond milk flavored creamers. I am now trying the almond milk flavored creamer at Aldi. Not sure yet if my stomach will like that one.
Whenever I feel hopeless about our Country, I come to Meidas... Thank you.
We the medias family stands united. We don't back down and stand our ground. We fight like hell. We cannot let our country falter to the wayside. Grateful we have a pro-democracy outlet like Medias Touch. never surrender thank you Ben, Brett, and Jordy

amen to that
I am so glad I found MeidasTouch. I will fight like hell for my future and the future of my children and grandchildren. My husband passed in July from stage 4 esophageal cancer. He was an honorable veteran who fought for this country. In a way I am glad he has passed so he can't see the disgusting way this country has disintegrated because of the orange clown.
Very sorry for your loss
E Pluribus, Unum!
I will upgrade to a paid subscription as soon as I can! Thank you for everything!
So grateful for Meidas Touch!
Keep bringing it to Trump and Fox! Every. Single. Day!
But be careful that this kind of crowdsize-topic doesn't become the main goal...
Thank you, Ben, for welcoming the Meidas Mighty to visit during a caffeinated Sunday chat.
It’s been a a tough week for sure. So much craziness, as expected and the need to find balance between being well informed and staying sane stronger than ever for me. I so appreciate the ever present fact checking reporting done by all those I follow on MTN. But that being said, it’s hard not to feel scared with all that’s being dismantled in our government, the reckless approvals of his cabinet picks and the 🍊 felon’s inflammatory/imperialistic rhetoric pissing off our allies.
I totally get what you said...if it weren't for MTN and the Meidas Mighty I don't want to think of how I would get through the day.
I really enjoy you taking us on your coffee runs.
Thank goodness for Meidas Touch. It’s where I get my news.
I just saw a video about how consumer confidence is lower. Who knew when you MAGA folks elected a crazy person who is nominating other crazy people and committing ethnic cleansing that people might get a bit nervous and think maybe I should hang on to my money for now?
Good morning, Ben!
You are still invited to Illinois!
Working on an idea...

We are with you, Ben. I'm in my favorite recliner, looking out over the lake behind our home and enjoying my hot coffee with you. My advantage I'm 30 feet away from the microwave to keep my coffee always hot, just like the Midas Mighty' spirit! Looking forward to Legal AF, just so important during this time.
I'm so grateful for your efforts - it makes all the difference to know you're there fighting the good fight in this way. Your articles are heartening, and if you can eliminate some of the redundancy they will be shorter, more concise, easier to read. But really, endless thanks, please don't give up! I'm sharing this all over the place!
Love Meidas Touch - gives me hope. I always have a shot of espresso in my coffee in the morning - gets me going.
Looking forward to those ‘espresso charged’ videos. Fight on..
😎
