What is the significance of Trump’s Memorial Day message and how does it ignore fallen heroes?
It's Memorial Day where we honor our troops who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. But Memorial Day for Donald Trump means to make demented social media posts attacking judges and spreading his conspiracies and overall just embarrassing and humiliating the United States of America and not mentioning our troops at all. This says we've now learned that. Federal judges, because of Donald Trump's attacks, don't even trust the U.S. Marshals anymore who are supposed to protect them from the threats, since they technically uh work for the executive branch and they want their own special protection or they're just gonna go out of pocket. Folks, we're not in a constitutional crisis. We're well beyond that.
We're in an authoritarian regime where we need to resist and oppose. And call it out. And clarity is needed where Donald Trump gives a deranged speech at a West Point Army graduation and starts talking about trophy-wives and starts comparing himself to Al Capone, says that he doesn't like stealth technology because he doesn't like the shapes. And he thinks he gave a speech at the Ohio State University where he gave a speech in Alabama. We here at the Midas Touch Network call it out and make it a big deal because it is. And it's having real-world ramifications on our lives as this maniac destroys our country, destroys our alliances, destroys our economy. Also, today it's gone underreported, so we should highlight it here.
Donald Trump pardoned a corrupt Virginia state. Sheriff who was found guilty of taking bribes to hand out badges to people in the business community in Virginia. This was someone who was sentenced to 10 years. And the Trump D.O.J. even bragged about the sentencing back in March of 2025. But Donald Trump said that this was a Biden witch hunt and Donald Trump putting more criminals back on the street. I think it's also important we talk about the Trump budget disaster as well, in the sense that the MAGA Republican senators who were making weekend news appearances said that they're not going to be uh supporting it. We'll see ultimately if that takes place, but that's at least what they said. We'll talk about that and more on this episode of the Midas Touch podcast.
Brett and Geordie, how are you guys doing?
I'm doing great. It's great to be here with everybody and welcome everybody to the special Memorial Day edition of the Midas Touch podcast. I hope everybody's having a a powerful day, a reflective day filled with gratitude for all the brave young men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. And it's a reminder of the reason why we are always, you know, doing this, why we get up every day and we all work so hard in order to get these messages out here because we're We want to live up to that, right? That's the same. We want to be able to defend those same values. So um today we honor them. Thank you for making us part of your day here. It's not just a day off, it is a day to reflect and a day to continue the fight.
So we appreciate you being with us. Jordy, how are you doing? I'm doing well, brothers. Mightus mighty.
Great to be here. I'm excited to get into the show today. And so with that, Benji, where do you want us to lead us off?
Well, let me reflect on the Memorial Day parade in my town, just at the outset of this episode. You know, it was uh an overall great parade, but there was one part of the parade where the town republican club had their own kind of crew, and they made it so Trumpy. And they had the Trump flag and they had all of the Trump stuff and all of this language. You know, DEI is bad. We hate DEI. And it was a little bit wild too, because as I was watching some of the people in the group, it wasn't just all kind of white people, and it was like a small group. And it was just, you know, coming into my town where we have a Democratic assemblyman, a Democratic senator, uh in a in a blue state, and just to see them making Memorial Day about Donald Trump with the Trump flag, and they were playing the
The YMCA song. It just left a certain feeling with me, which is why I'm talking about it.
