Chapter 1: What are the warning signs about Donald Trump's health?

0.031 - 20.159 Ben

Donald Trump physically and mentally deteriorating and rotting before our eyes. The bruising and discoloration on his right hand now is on his left hand. And it's even worse than while Donald Trump held a meeting with a group that he called the Board of Peace, which is really the access of evil, just Trump and a bunch of authoritarian regimes.

0

20.46 - 29.312 Ben

He basically had to stop for a little bit to put makeup on his hand to cover up the bruising and the discoloration. We'll break it down. Donald Trump

Chapter 2: What was the context of Trump's 'fake deal' on Greenland?

29.292 - 57.46 Ben

continued to break down america's relationship with nato while in davos switzerland he continued to attack our allies mock our allies and just behave like a complete and utter idiot and you can see that mental cognitive decline taking place during what may have been the worst speech i've ever seen at davos or on the international stage donald trump continued to confuse iceland with greenland he referred to greenland as a block of ice as well

0

57.44 - 79.914 Ben

and said, I need it, I need it. And then when the day was over, Donald Trump announced a fake deal that he claimed he entered into with NATO to do something. There was no details regarding Greenland, and he was happy about it. He then leaked out to the press that the US was going to control certain areas in Greenland. It would become sovereign territories of the United States.

0

79.954 - 99.851 Ben

Well, that was utterly bogus. Denmark said it's rubbish. Greenland had no clue what he was talking about. Mark Rutte, the Secretary General of NATO, said, we don't know what the hell you're talking about. Just another fake and demeaning deal by a demented individual in Donald Trump. Also, we've been seeing more horrifying image of the ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo.

0

100.172 - 103.478 Ben

They are now using children as bait

0

103.458 - 129.567 Ben

in order to attack the parents we saw them use a five-year-old returning from preschool wearing like a pokemon cap as bait to lure out the father then ice and border patrol gestapo kidnapped both and moved him to a detention center or concentration camp in texas you're also seeing more chemical agents being deployed on the peaceful populations in minneapolis and st paul

129.547 - 154.373 Ben

we'll break down for you everything that's going there and trump relentlessly trying to prosecute our friend don lemon as well we also learned about uh a whistleblower complaint that was sent to congress showing that the ice and border patrol gestapo have ordered their gestapo on the ground not to follow the fourth amendment and to conduct searches and seizures without warrants

154.353 - 174.539 Ben

to instead use administrative warrants that they basically fill out for themselves and then go into homes without judicial warrants. We'll talk about that. Special Counsel Jack Smith testified on Capitol Hill today. Once again, the MAGA Republicans look so utterly foolish. They were too scared to really even talk about January 6th.

174.559 - 192.14 Ben

They kept on talking about Cassidy Hutchinson the entire time and also didn't mention that she was Mark Meadows' top aide, like she was a top aide in the Trump White House. And they're like, well, what do you think about Cassidy Hutchinson talking about Donald Trump attacking people in the suburban? What do you think about that, Jack Smith?

Chapter 3: How is Gavin Newsom positioning himself on the global stage?

192.38 - 212.322 Ben

She was on your witness list. Doesn't this show, Jack Smith, that you're not credible? Jack Smith's like, what? Because she was on the witness list. What are you even talking about? Jim Jordan, who doesn't have a bar license, who's not licensed to practice law, who the MAGA's placed to lead the Judiciary Committee. And also, just in a typical Donald Trump day,

0

212.302 - 240.756 Ben

He's sued JP Morgan Chase, he claims for debanking him. He sued JP Morgan Chase for $5 billion. He's threatening to now sue the New York Times or amend some one of his millions of lawsuits against journalists and reporters to add claims that the New York Times Sienna poll, which shows Donald Trump's approval rating at 40%. Trump says, I don't believe it. That's defamation. I'm suing you for it.

0

240.736 - 264.735 Ben

The New York Times poll shows that Donald Trump is underwater on basically every issue from the Epstein files where he's negative 44 points to the economy where he's deeply underwater as well. Donald Trump ranting and raving like a lunatic there. We've got a lot to discuss. Brett and Jordy, this is the Midas Touch podcast. Great to see you. What in the world is going on?

0

264.935 - 278.108 Brett

What in the world is going on? Indeed, I just got word that Geordi lost power, so it looks like me and you battling against the elements here, but the show does not stop. We keep on going. I'm doing well, Ben.

0

278.128 - 301.896 Brett

I think, you know, I feel like, you know, every episode we have obviously examples of this, but in the past 24 to 48 hours or so, we've even seen an escalation of just the pure evil of this regime and the pure evil of the party who is propping him up. And we're seeing the ramifications of that evil as it is inflicted on the entire world and as it is inflicted here on the American people.

301.916 - 320.305 Brett

It's complete and total disgrace. I am looking forward to speaking about it, talking about just the horrifying things we did. We broke a big story here at the Midas Touch Network earlier when we noticed immediately when the White House posted an image of one of the protesters who entered a church in Minneapolis.

320.285 - 341.303 Brett

uh posted a picture after arresting this protester and they used artificial intelligence to edit the image in order to make it appear like she was crying in order to make it appear that she was distressed and had tears streaming down her face i mean the stuff we're dealing with right now is just super safe i will go into it in more detail at some point probably but I'll just show you this image.

341.323 - 359.443 Brett

This is the image that the White House posted. As people are seeing it here, as I describe for audio listeners, you see she looks like she's in distress as she's being arrested by the officer, tears streaming down her face. We immediately, our team said, this picture does not look right. Let me see if we could find if this was AI. There's something about it.

359.804 - 383.274 Brett

Sure enough, we found the original photo that was posted by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. that shows she is making no such face. And this is just one of so many examples of how deceitful this regime is, as to how evil this regime is, to how this regime does not care at all about justice or following the law or doing right by the American people. They just want to cause terror.

Chapter 4: What disturbing tactics is the Trump regime using with AI?

552.096 - 573.871 Ben

Caroline Levitt, Donald Trump's chief propagandist, goes, no, he didn't, Libby. His written remarks refer to Greenland as a piece of ice because that's what it is. You're the only one mixing anything up here. Okay, I mean, look, we have the videotape. we saw that Donald Trump repeatedly was calling Greenland Iceland.

0

574.271 - 588.33 Ben

There was a point where he also, in calling Greenland Iceland, said that it is a piece of ice, but on multiple occasions, Donald Trump talked about wanting to acquire and take over Iceland. Like, we have the tapes.

0

588.31 - 612.327 Ben

so here's one of those tapes then i'll play you another one but let's just play it so we can all say hey caroline you are a liar but like they lie about the most brazen things like like we hear him here play this clip but the problem with nato is that we'll be there for them 100 but i'm not sure that they'd be there for us if we gave them the call

0

613.538 - 637.177 Unknown

Gentlemen, we are being attacked. We're under attack by such and such a nation. I know them all very well. I'm not sure that they'd be there. I know we'd be there for them. I don't know that they'd be there for us. So with all of the money we expend, with all of the blood, sweat, and tears, I don't know that they'd be there for us. They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you.

0

637.518 - 647.352 Unknown

I mean, our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland's already cost us a lot of money. But that dip is peanuts compared to what it's gone up.

648.194 - 656.168 Ben

And we have an unbelievable future. Then he said it again and said, it is a piece of ice, but he says Iceland again as well. Let's play that other one, Brett.

656.188 - 676.619 Unknown

But in doing it, I'm helping Europe, I'm helping NATO. And until the last few days when I told them about Iceland, they loved me. They called me daddy, right, last time. Very smart man said, he's our daddy. He's running it. I was like running it. I went from running it to being a terrible human being.

678.32 - 690.392 Unknown

But now what I'm asking for is a piece of ice, cold and poorly located, that can play a vital role in world peace and world protection.

690.652 - 709.849 Ben

Okay, so you heard him. There were so many disgusting things that were said there as well, which I'll address. Number one, when he says NATO won't be there for us, the only country that's ever invoked Article 5 of NATO is the United States, and the NATO nations were there with the United States, particularly Denmark.

Chapter 5: What updates are there on Gaza and Jared Kushner's plans?

720.528 - 742.804 Ben

They died on the front lines. and that's just straight up defamation by donald trump against our nato allies and it's utterly despicable then you know donald trump saying they call me daddy they call me daddy again He's speaking at the World Economic Forum, and he looks so utterly insane during that whole entire process.

0

742.844 - 769.705 Ben

And then referring to Greenland, a proud country, as a poorly located block of ice, which he refers to as Iceland. is one of the most degrading and horrible things to describe a country also that you want to take over and acquire. It's so utterly offensive. So you have Caroline Leavitt saying he didn't say those things. Well, we heard him say those things also.

0

770.366 - 793.632 Ben

So everyone watching here and for those in audio listeners, I'm showing where Caroline Leavitt says he never confused Iceland and Greenland. Then regarding Donald Trump's hand, what Caroline Leavitt is saying is that, so at first Donald Trump's right hand was just completely bruised and discolored. And remember, she said that was caused by the handshakes.

0

794.506 - 816.99 Ben

Now, she's out there saying that his left hand, by the way, his left hand looks way worse than the right hand looked, and the right hand looked horrible. But now they're saying, oh, he knocked into the edge of a table, and because he's taking lots of aspirin every day, that when you take lots of aspirin and you bunk into tables, that's what happens to your hand?

0

817.15 - 820.193 Ben

No, I mean, I think one of the things it looks like

820.173 - 845.117 Ben

is it looks like an iv injection puncture site with edema and bruising consistent with iv infiltration this is an opinion let me be very clear but i can assure you that when someone says that the right hand looked that way from shaking hands and the left hand looks that way from knocking into a table when he was speaking with this access of evil that he calls the board of peace

845.097 - 872.472 Ben

That's not what is happening. Like stop gaslighting and lying to us like that. But then the Trump regime will do things like they'll make an announcement and say, Belgium has joined the board of peace. And then Belgium will put out a statement like, no, we haven't joined that. The countries that stood with Donald Trump In Davos, we're like Pakistan, Qatar, Belarus, though Russia wasn't there.

872.873 - 891.356 Ben

Russia's part of Donald Trump's access of evil that he calls the board of peace. Bahrain, Indonesia, Uzbekistan, no NATO allies, no one from Europe, no Australia, no Canada. This is what the United States has become under the Trump regime.

Chapter 6: Why is the prosecution of Don Lemon significant?

891.416 - 913.63 Ben

And then Donald Trump goes out there And Donald Trump says, after saying all those horrible things that you just heard him say, we're going to take over Greenland. We're going to take over. It's ours. It's ours. Trump announces that he did a deal on social media. He just writes it. We did a big deal with Greenland. He said we did a deal with NATO.

0

914.639 - 925.805 Ben

And then NATO says, and then no, the deal, I won't reveal the terms, but we've reached a framework to talk about a future deal with Greenland and Denmark.

0

Chapter 7: What key points were made during Jack Smith's testimony?

925.825 - 949.832 Ben

And NATO has assured me it's going to be great. Trump just made this up. None of that happened. Greenland didn't agree to anything. Denmark didn't agree to anything. The NATO commanders, we've heard from the NATO commander in that region who said NATO was never briefed on any deal that was made around this at all. It was just completely made up.

0

949.872 - 972.895 Ben

And then the Trump regime leaks things about it like, oh, well, actually what the deal is, it's going to give the United States sovereignty over its bases within Greenland and will control certain territory within Greenland. That's news to Greenland. That's news to Denmark. And that's news to NATO because that was never even discussed with Donald Trump at all.

0

973.415 - 991.8 Brett

And here's my thing, Ben, that I want to add here. If you're a media organization and Donald Trump says we made a deal, you don't have to make your headline Donald Trump made a deal, okay, or a concept of a deal, whatever it is. You don't have to follow this bullshit because if you've covered Donald Trump for even a day, you understand that this is his move.

0

992.121 - 1008.973 Brett

And this is especially his move when he views that he needs an out of something. He needs to weasel his way out of something because Donald Trump's back was against the wall. And I want to give a shout out to Canada. I want to give a shout out to Europe. I want to give a shout out to all the nations who stood strong

0

1008.953 - 1020.41 Brett

up to the United States and said, get the hell off our back, respect our sovereignty, and stop acting like a dictator. And Donald Trump, and especially all the other moves they did, right?

1021.251 - 1036.935 Brett

Getting rid of the kind of the pension funds that affected, you know, US bonds, the trade bazooka that was threatened against the United States, all of the other sort of trade partnerships that these European countries and Canada were undertaking to further isolate the United States.

1036.915 - 1054.985 Brett

The US stock market crashing because of all this and because of Donald Trump's moves, his back was against the wall and Donald Trump does not like to look like a loser. So he comes up with a fake win. He says, I have a deal. Here's the deal, everybody. I'm going to call off those tariffs that made the market tank.

1055.005 - 1071.95 Brett

I'm going to call off all this craziness because I got a deal and this is going to be great. So, your job as a media entity isn't to go, Donald Trump got a deal, everybody. No, it's to say that this is his out. It's to call out the scam, to call out the fraud. He's a con man. He was adjudicated as a con man.

1072.25 - 1086.851 Brett

Everyone knows this man is a fraud and he perpetually commits various frauds upon the American people and upon the world. So, call this crap out and do not give him the headlines. Obviously, you're going to have those right-wing entities like Foxx. right?

Chapter 8: How is the public reacting to Trump's recent legal challenges?

2218.669 - 2219.67 Donald Trump

But it's really encouraging.

0

2219.65 - 2238.459 Ben

it's really encouraging she says at the end but it's really encouraging this may be like the us and puerto rico where are you getting that from where are you getting that from you're just making you Nothing that she's saying or that Will Cain, it's not even tethered to reality. I wanna give a hat tip.

0

2238.98 - 2258.567 Ben

I'm not gonna play the clip here though to politics girl, Lee McGowan, who's on the Midas Touch Network. She's channeling all of us. Remember when Scott Jennings was like, why do we even care about the Epstein files? So just a little bit of noncompliance. And then she's like, a little bit of noncompliance. She goes, why the hell are you talking like that?

0

2258.547 - 2282.412 Ben

it's just a little bit of sex trafficking who do we care it's like what are you talking about you're covering up child sex trafficking and you're like don't get all worked up about this don't get all worked up about this it's just enough of this crap the exact quote by scott jennings is even more let's not get our knickers in a twist is what scott about about the epstein files and the cover-up of a child sex trafficking ring but

0

2282.392 - 2304.484 Brett

you know i think when we look at all this stuff and you look at fox that's a multi-billion dollar operation that's designed in order to push state regime talking points social media apps like x that's a multi-billion dollar operation and algorithm in order to push particular talking points to try to brainwash the american people

2304.464 - 2315.238 Brett

And I believe that these platforms have made our country very sick because in a healthy country, in a healthy nation, we would run these people the hell out of this country. We would not accept this BS.

2315.278 - 2334.429 Brett

I know our viewers don't accept this BS, but in a normal country, it would be like 96% of the country not accepting this BS, not just like 75% of the country or 70% of the country wanting to run these people out. but it would be like 95, 96%. These people are, they're lunatics. And it really is a battle of good versus evil.

2334.769 - 2346.435 Brett

And we'll get to like the Jack Smith of it all later, but you really just see the evilness on display and their desire to constantly rewrite history and to try to shift the narrative.

2346.415 - 2374.043 Brett

to try to just outright lie to people in order to create their own version of reality they took that concept from trump's first term with kellyanne conway when she called it alternative facts and they made that their mo they made that their whole shtick we're just okay reality sucks for us we're not very good at governing we're not very good at anything we cause terror everybody would actually hate us in any sort of normal world so we got to create our new our own reality we got to pump all this money into these networks these social media apps
