Why do the hosts say it’s time to move from grieving to resisting Trump’s threats right now?
The election is over and obviously not the results that anybody wanted. It's okay to reflect on what happened, but there is simply no time to look back right now. What is important that we here at the Midas Touch Network, that this community is on the front lines of resisting fascism, of resisting authoritarianism, of calling out the Trump administration and all of his lackeys at each and every Turn and to make sure our voices, our heard, our institu our institutions remain strong. And that is our commitment to you. We are going nowhere, and we will be here to protect our fundamental rights, your fundamental rights, and we will not stop. We will continue on with our mission together. Let's call in Brett and Jordy right now.
Brett Jordy, good to see you here. Not the episode that I wanted to have. I did not want to be in resistance mode. I wanted to be in let's build upon accomplishments mode. But here we are. These are the cards that are now dealt, and we have no choice but to reflect on what happened, what can improve. And how we move forward together. And that's what we are going to do here. We've seen the importance, I think, of uh and the power of the media, of corporate media same washing and both sidesing everything of uh uh investments, massive investments on the right wing in digital media platforms that worked on Gen Z and worked on certain communities to try to influence their voting behavior and shift voting behavior.
But but here we are. We here at the Midas Touch Network, this is not a network of the blame game or wagging our fingers. We have to learn the lessons. And we have to grow. Brett and Jordy. Uh, how are you doing? Obviously not ideal, but good to see you both. And good to be here with all the mightest might.
Not not ideal is uh is one way to put it. You know, these last few days have been tough, but I know it's been tough on all of you out there as well, and and and we share in those feelings. Um, you know, in the past few days I've I've raged, uh I've shed tears, I've been it's been hard, it's been difficult. But you know what? I've I've picked myself back up and I'm ready to get back in the ring and make sure that we're doing everything possible. And what we need to do now is we need to Rebuild this network, rebuild this community into the strongest force possible to confront the issues that we are going to face. We've identified the threats here over and over and over again. We have spread this message far and wide, but not far enough.
And now we actually have to confront those threats head on. And so our mission from here on out is to confront that, is to actually Actively serve as a resistance where these policies uh go in the bad directions that we expect them to go. And we are going to be a check on power. We are going to be unapologetic. And that is our promise. And I, by the way, I totally get those people who are like, This is I I can't take it anymore. I need to take a rest. I totally understand. But whether you're taking a break now or whether you're taking a break tomorrow, or if you already took a few days and you're back. back in action. We will always be here for you, ready to fight by your side. That is our mission. That is our promise to you.
Jordy, what's new?
Brett said it perfectly. Ben said it perfectly. We are not going anywhere. We love this community too much. We love this country too much. And right now, this community is genuinely that. It is the best pro-democracy community out there. And so to Brett to Brett's point exactly, I understand if you need a week, if you need a day, if you need a month, if you need a couple, we're going to be here for you no matter what. Because we love this country and this community too much to ever back away.
You know, look, we've already hear Donald Trump and the campaign uh people and and his surrogates right now. I mean, they're still talking about deportations. Caroline Levitt talk uh talked about mass deportation. She was Donald Trump's spokesperson. Um Byron Donald's talked about these deportations, which Donald Trump said was going to be bloody.
