0:00 Donald Trump is now panicking as the Midas Touch Network is leading the boycott against Donald Trump's State of the Union. That's right. Midas Touch has partnered with Move On and we will be hosting the people's state of the union when the State of the Union is taking place. That is our counterprogramming. And we already have about 19 senators and members of the House of Representatives who will be boycotting the State of the Union and will be joining us at the Midas Touch Network. This is unprecedented in history. Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans hate what we are doing. Right-wing media has been attacking the Midas Touch Network as has MAGA for the fact that we've been
0:47 putting on this event. But frankly, I don't care. And I expect that the number of senators and Congress members to grow and perhaps even be around double what it is right now. 19 will be joining the Midas Touch Network's boycott. I expect that number to look more like 30 to 40 in the coming days, but we will see and keep you posted. Here's our official flyer right here. the People's State of the Union, February 24th, 8:30 Eastern time. Although we'll probably end up starting earlier than that. You can watch it here on the Midas Touch YouTube channel. But it's not just the lawmakers who are going to be here on the Midas Touch network. Uh they're also going to be alongside heart and soul of this
1:33 country. federal workers, immigrants, and other Americans impacted by Donald Trump's policies will also be at our event, they'll be speaking. And again, this has never really existed. There's no historical precedent for it. Um, but we have to lead by example, and that's what we always do here at the Midas Judge Network. And Trump and his regime, as I said, absolutely hate this. Few housekeeping matters. As you can see, we're very close to 6 million subscribers. Hit subscribe right now. Help us hit six million subscribers before the State of the Union. Let's make a statement there. Also, go to midasplus.com. That's our Substack. Join that right now. So, here's how it's being reported in the press. Democrats
2:19 plan counterprogramming during Trump's State of the Union. That's from The Hill or USA Today. People's State of the Union. what Democrats plan for Trump's speech. And all these members of Congress have been announcing they are going to be joining the mightest touch event and skipping the State of the Union, boycotting the State of the Union. Here's how New York Times reported it. Democrats plan to counter Trump's speech to Congress with rally. And it says, "The event, which is being coordinated by the left-wing advocacy group Move On and Might as Touch, a progressive media company, will feature Democratic lawmakers speaking with people who have been negatively affected by Mr. Trump's economic and healthc care policies, as well as federal workers who lost their jobs and immigrants who have
3:05 been targeted by the Trump administration. It will be hosted by the liberal political commentators Joy Reid and Katie Fang. It's always funny to me when corporate news uses these labels, the liberal hosts and the progressive. I I mean, look, at the end of the day, we don't like fascism. And it's a pretty easy decision for us not to stream live the State of the Union and to support the boycott and to use our massive platform here at the Midas Touch Network to lead that effort in terms of bringing the distribution of it to the American people. Why would I want to watch a fascist who's covering up a child sex trafficking ring with a bunch of other pedto protectors that that are there um
3:54 uh mocking the American people? Lie after lie after lie. No, I I'd rather host and use this incredible platform that we've all built together with you. host people talking about policies and hearing from uh Americans and immigrants and people who can share their experiences. I don't know that that that's what I would like to see and frankly when we hear from the American people that's what they want to see as well. I I don't know if you saw this, but uh you know, now that they're in a partial government shutdown yet again because the Trump regime refuses to negotiate with Democrats over the Department of Homeland Security demands, the DHS demands that its ICE and Border Patrol, Gestapo, its Nazis, its SS, it's
4:42 uh paramilitary, that they always be able to wear masks when they terrorize communities. no body cams at all, masks, and no judicial warrants, and they want to make sure they're there at the polling places come the midterms. Look, you want to know my view? My view is we need to abolish ICE and Border Patrol, and we need to prosecute each and every one of those people who have been involved in torturing and terrorizing the American people and others in this country. The Democrat demand is is a little more moderate than what I just suggested, but okay. Okay. What do I know? They're suggest they they just say here, body cams, judicial warrants,
5:28 don't be at the polling locations at the midterms and no masks. But for the MAGAS, they go, the Maggas are like, that's a non-starter for us. We can't ever agree to that. Those are non-starter. Those are non-starters for you. Let's hear from what the American people are saying. Here's a Missouri voter probably who will be watching the Midas Touch People's State of the Union, the real State of the Union that people are going to be watching. Here's a Missouri voter yesterday calling into C-SPAN. Here's what he has to say. Trump needs to be removed. Let's play it. >> He needs to be removed. Trump needs to be removed. and everybody that is uh cowtowed to him, Patel, Bondi, and all
6:16 those people need to be removed and prosecuted for their crimes against the public. And the fact that he's taken all our medical money to finance ICE is totally ridiculous. It's sick. >> Okay, what about a Tennessee voter who called into C-SPAN talking about the importance of affordability? play this clip. >> I think there's, you know, probably very little doubt that affordability and health care is the major thing going around here in Tennessee, especially in a small town like I live in. Uh, you know, the loss of people's substances is forcing. I know a lot of people now say they just don't have no healthc care. You know, they can't afford it. And the price of everything is going up around here. Heck, that gone car battery is
7:03 costing $300 now. that you know just a few few years ago two or three years ago was about $15 battery people just affordability cuz we're low we're a low wage state or county and uh our biggest uh thing right there and of course Epstein files I don't know what they'll ever come up you know of because if we just turn the all these wealthy people loose that's just turn them you know freedom anybody do to our children what they want to if you got money of course that's the way that that works But definitely affordability of groceries. G groceries. You know, you see stakes bringing $25 a piece here, you know, out of the grocery store. Well, this little county can't afford that kind of stuff. And like I said, healthc care, a lot of
7:49 people lose their lives over that cuz they make a decision now whether they buy groceries or medicine. What about this independent voter who talks about the ICE facilities that are being built in Baltimore right now and how they're taking people off the streets, kidnapping him in the masks and throwing them into these warehouses where they terrorize and torture people. Here, play this clip. >> You know, they're building a uh, you know, an ICE facility out in Harrisburg. Not Harrisburg. uh well out west and they're uh you know taking people out in Baltimore and um I think the the biggest issue not to be glib is you know stuff like um you
8:34 know the Epstein files and the corruption of the federal government um where our resources are being put towards you know things that don't reflect our values at the state and federal level like people being disappeared off the streets. Uh, you know, it would be bad enough if they were just not citizens, but including citizens being disappeared off the streets by men in masks while at this to who knows where without a record available to the public while at the same time people in the highest positions of power, including the president of the United States, is covering up, you know, the distribution of release of, you know, files about trafficking people. >> Yeah. I mean, did did you see some of this incredible reporting by ProPublica? Hat tip to our friends over there at
9:20 ProPublica. They're doing such a great job. They've documented how Trump's Nazis, his ICE and Border Patrol, Gustapo, rounded up the little children that are in these uh detention centers, these concentration camps, and stole their writings and their drawings and their letters because ProPublica published them before. And so now the Trump Gustapo stole the ability of these children to write letters. Did you hear the story about the two-month-old with bronchitis who almost got killed, was at that Dilly detention center facility, and uh there was no doctor on site despite it being run by a private uh company that taxpayers fund to the tune of billions of dollars. This this little
10:07 kid almost died. They brought him to the hot two two months old. It's all this kid knows. And then they brought him to the hospital. Almost died there. Barely survived. And then the Trump regime Juan Juan Nicholas. Then they immediately deported him to Mexico right away trying to trying to kill this two-month-old. Uh ProPublica also reported on some of the messages coming out from these kids and they're tortured. They're suffering. They're being starved to death that the the water is making them sick. You know, the the atrocities. I mean, there are tons of people who are dying at these concentration camps. So, so, so no, I'm not going to play live the authoritarian fascist state of the union because the state of our union
10:53 is a it it our union has been destroyed by this authoritarian regime. We we'll rebuild it. We'll rebuild it. But I ain't playing that. I ain't playing. They could they could attack us. The rightwing could go after us all they want. I ain't playing it. We're going to be hosting our own event. That's what we do here at the Midas Touch Network. By the way, Lane Brown, Oklahoma, he posted this. This is incredible. People were being arrested for speaking out against AI data centers. This is in Claremore, Oklahoma. Claremore, Oklahoma. This is very Trumpy area. former Trumpy MAGA area and Trump and Trumpers keep trying to throw
11:40 these data centers into these communities. People don't want these data centers there. There are so many issues right now and I keep saying this that aren't Democrat Republican issues. People are wising up that these framings that media wants these liberal, conservative, this or that are ways to divide us. Right now, a lot of these issues are good versus evil, harmful versus helpful, right? Things that make people sick and destroy versus things that help people prosper, right? We need to recognize these things. I mean, it's not a political thing that the Trump regime is covering up a child sex trafficking ring. It is an evil,
12:27 despicable thing. That's what it is. And what you see here in Claremore, Oklahoma is what we're seeing across the country in quote unquote liberal cities, conservative cities, independent people don't want these data centers which are eating up the energy, causing energy bills to spike, making people sick in the area and also fueling AI that's taking away people's jobs among other things and other health concerns. Take a look at what happened in Claremore. Play this clip. taking jail. >> You're arresting HIM. >> WHAT? >> OH, channel 8. Channel 8. NOTE HOW THEY LET THE PERSON positive go over his time. >> You're shameful. YOU'RE SHAMEFUL.
13:13 SHAMEFUL. >> OKAY, we >> Everybody take a picture of this. >> Disgusting. >> We need to get through the meeting so that everyone can >> Yeah. Why don't y'all quit arresting people? Would you make a note that they let their guy speak over, >> you know, and then with all this taking place, what's Donald Trump doing? He's posting photos of the ballroom that he wants to build, the freaking Golden Ballroom, right? where he remember the reporting I did on the Golden Ballroom as well where Trump's now arguing it is a national security matter because if we don't build the ballroom it's going to make him sick because he destroyed the
13:58 East Wing and there could be asbestous there now and the rubble and the Secret Service can't get by. So Trump argues, I kid you not, that it is his life is at risk if the East Wing Ballroom is not built right now. He also said that there's major national security implications if the Golden Ballroom isn't built. And he submitted two declarations that were classified, classified declarations. And as I said before, one of the things he wants to do there is build that bunker underneath the way Hitler built a bunker underneath or wanted to build a bunker underneath his ballroom. You know, Trump's posting things like this as well. He goes more on the will be the greatest ballroom ever. But you you got MAGA posting
14:45 things like this. This is what the Republican the GOP accounts. This is what they wrote yesterday. Wages are climbing. Costs are falling. Our economy is thriving. This is the Trump effect. It's my Howard Lutnik impression of saying it. Uh wages are down, costs are up, and the overall state of the economy is not resilient, and it's not doing well right now. Stop gaslighting the people right now. Stop it. 14 million households now owe past due utility bills. There's no energy boom. It's an affordability crisis. As Aaron Black explains, this isn't leadership, it's neglect. Americans are far more
15:31 dissatisfied with Trump's handling of the economy than ever before. Just think about it. The amount of delinquencies in credit card bills, in utility bills, the amount of delinquencies in commercial leasing arrangements right now where banks are having to foreclose on commercial leases at numbers not seen since great recessions. And with all of this taking place, we're now preparing to go to war with Iran. A massive war, weeks long. US, Israel, that's it. None of our other allies there. They don't exist any. It's US and Israel. Trump says he's 90% in the next few weeks going to launch this
16:17 strike. And that it can take weeks. Israel is preparing for war within days. We have two aircraft carrier groups there. What the hell is going on? We don't Who wants this war? No one wants this war right now. We We just want to help people get housing here in the United States. Just want people to be able to have health care in the United States. That people to be able to have jobs with dignity, not just a living wage because they ain't even getting a living wage. A wage with dignity that they deserve. That's what people want. Roana, Democratic congressman, writes, "Trump is positioning two aircraft carriers, a dozen warships, and hundreds of fighter
17:04 jets to prepare for possible war with Iran. I first got into politics to end the Iraq war. I won't let Trump launch a disastrous war without Congress voting to stop it." They're saying there's a 90% chance of strikes. So Thomas Massie and Kana, they did a war powers resolution and they're saying, "Look, we're going to we're going to try to block Trump from doing this. A war with Iran could be catastrophic. It's a complex society with 90 million people, significant air defenses, military capabilities. We have 30 to 40,000 US troops in the region. What are we doing here? What are we doing here?" And all the while, you've got the Trump
17:49 kids hosting a crypto conference yesterday, whining about being cancelled. Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy. Bunch of freaking whiners. Here's what they said. We've been dealing with the conflict of interest stuff for years. I mean, they tried all this nonsense the first time around. Frankly, it's gotten old. They were the ones that put us into this position by creating legislation to try to put us out of business. We just fought back. We weren't willing to sit in a corner uh curl up in a ball and die like they would love us to do. That's not how we function. That's not how we operate. And you can see that whether it's my father or us. That's never going to happen. We're going to do what we need to fight back. You know, it's a crazy law of like unintended consequences. If you look at what they tried to do when they threw my father off of Twitter and and they did the same to Don and myself and pretty much everybody else in our family. They took
18:35 us off of Twitter. They took us off Facebook. They took us off of Instagram. They took us off of YouTube. They took us off of Google. They skewed all the searches. They did everything they could to suppress. So guess what we did? We went out and we formed Truth Social, you know. Then not too long after that, you know, all the banks, they started canceling us left and right. Every single one of them, every single one of the big banks, they started canceling us. Guess what we did? We went out and we got into DeFi because we realized it was future finance. And and you know, the the great irony is half of the very executives that called us back in those days to cancel us are actually in this room right now. It's kind of it is a law of unintended consequences. And I think, you know, for a long time they fought it and I think at at at this point they realized they can't fight it. Uh the train has left the station. uh this is happening worldwide. The whole world is adopting crypto in a very very big fast manner. Uh and they'd much rather be on
19:20 the side of something that's clearly the future uh than be trying to fight it in perpetuity. I don't think >> by the way here's the list of 19 senators and congress members who are going to be joining our event at the the state of the union, the people's state of the union. I expect there to be many more, but here's the list right now. Senator Ed Marky, Senator Jeff Mkeley, Senator Chris Murphy, Senator Tina Smith, Senator Chris Van Galand, Congresswoman Anzari, Congresswoman Balon Casar Escobarheims Jacobs Gyipal Larson Cameliger Dove Pine Gree Randelle Scandlin Ramirez Watson. I I expect there to be many more. I expect there to be many more.
