MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 4/18/25

Description

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: A powerful federal appeals court ruling delivers a major blow to Trump in the Abrego Garcia case, as a judge also finds probable cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt. We cover the tragic school shooting at Florida State University and the GOP’s continued inaction. Trump’s disastrous economic agenda is unraveling: from trying to defund Harvard for dissent, to wrecking years of American manufacturing growth under Biden, to getting crushed by China in the trade war he started. Oh, and of course he wants to get rid of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. All this and much more from the chaotic world of MAGA.

Donald, you lost nine to zero. Stop pretending like you won. Also, Donald Trump's regime was held in contempt, a probable cause finding by another judge. This one in Washington, D.C., federal Judge Boasberg found that the Trump DOJ was in contempt by not following the court orders when the court said return

The plane returned the migrants who you are kidnapping before you send them to an extermination camp in El Salvador. Give me a list of the lawyers who were involved in that. If you don't plan on fixing what you did, I will hold them in criminal contempt. And if I need to appoint a special prosecutor to prosecute those people in the DOJ because your DOJ refuses to prosecute them, I will do that.

Trump was asked about that. Trump threw the lawyers under the bus. I don't know anything about contempt. You're going to have to ask the lawyers. That's for Pam Bondi and the DOJ lawyers to figure out. Great work, lawyers. You got played and you're heading to contempt right now. You don't have absolute immunity the way the Supreme Court gave it to Donald Trump. Let's talk about that and more.

111.275 - 117.259 Ben Meiselas

You know, what we're seeing right now is exactly what I said we were going to see months and months ago.

133.251 - 138.655 Brett

It's something we've discussed on this show, and that's this idea of a reality deficit in the Trump administration.

139.395 - 165.738 Brett

this happened in his last administration so it wasn't like it was something that we had to like make up from scratch but trump lives obviously on his house of cards of lies that's what his entire administration that's what everything he does is propped up by by his bluster his propaganda this cult-like refusal to acknowledge objective reality it's the same things that autocratic governments do every single day they have to live in this bubble where facts don't matter only perception matters because that's how they exert their strength
