Hey Midas Mighty, Ben Mycelis here from the Midas Touch Network and the Midas Touch Podcast.

That's our substack where we post daily articles and where our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski, provides what I think is the best daily recap of the events of the day. And he posts that almost every single day. The only days he doesn't post are Wednesday and Saturday. He does a full weekend recap on Sunday, and then every other day of the week, you will get a post from Ron Filipkowski. Once again, that's at MidasPlus.com. I'd like to just spend a little bit of time with you, if I may, to read you a message that I posted online. on our sub stack at MidasPlus.com on Saturday morning. I'd like to read it to you so you can hear it to all of our new podcast listeners and older podcast listeners and everyone else. I just wanted to share with you this entry.

It's been really popular on sub stack, so I thought I would share it with you. I call it a message from the Midas founder. Let me read it for you right now. Hey, Midas Mighty, it's Ben Mycelis, co-founder of the Midas Touch Network and host of the number one most downloaded podcast in America with my brothers, Brett and Jordy. Yes, we officially dethroned Joe Rogan this week in monthly podcast downloads. Thank you to all of our Substack subscribers for fueling this organic growth. Please subscribe to the Substack if you can. Then I go in and I say the following. Let's not mince words about what is taking place, okay? Trump and Musk now lead a repressive and authoritarian regime. America is no longer a democracy under them. Trump and Musk are engaged in a constitutional coup to shred our founding documents and remove the separation of powers. They are tyrants. Republicans in the House and Senate are complicit co-conspirators in the coup. These are evil people who hate our democracy and hate our freedoms.

They want us to be sick, weak, poor, starving, angry, begging, and Russian. Let's be clear-eyed and not talk around this. Why are they doing this? Because they are sick and cruel people. That's why. For them, money isn't so much even a measure of wealth. as it is a tool to inflict suffering, which gets them off. In Putin, they see the ultimate manifestation of evil that they relish. The torture, pain, and hate are not a bug, it's their desire and their final solution. Once we identify the problem with clear language like this, we can solve for it, just as one must identify the disease before devising the cure. We cannot normalize the behavior we are witnessing or treat it as business as usual.

And I believe one of the reasons the Midas Touch Network has been growing is because we call it what it is. Even if that pisses people off, so be it. This is a time for fearless resistance. Trump and Musk did not believe America was capable of mounting an effective resistance to their shock and awe campaign of government bulldozing. For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen in place, expecting politicians and institutions to do something, anything at all. Americans were used to checks and balances and guardrails working. That didn't happen. But recently, something clicked. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands.
