‘We’re fighting for you!’ Podcaster Ben Meiselas on taking on the Maga media – and winning the ratings battle His channel, MeidasTouch, puts out 15 videos a day exposing Republican failings – and it is getting bigger audiences than Joe Rogan’s. Is this the champion the American left has been waiting for?

I spoke to the hardest working man in podcasting: BEN MEISELAS of Meidas Touch, who's taking the fight to Maga (and beating Joe Rogan in the ratings), and doesn't mince his words about the state of US media, and its failure to meet the current moment.

NY AG Letitia James responds to indictment

So is Kash Patel investigating or is he too busy mourning Charlie Kirk?

Holy crap. Trump will make the FCC crucify Jimmy Kimmel for this.

Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.bsk... Of all the many, many questions Pamela Jo Bondi refused to answer today, the most incendiary was about whether she's seen photos of Donald Trump with unclothed underage girls. It is so damning that she couldn't just say, "No."

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror."

If Trump is allowed to murder civilians at sea, he is allowed to murder civilians in your streets. Charges need to be drawn up for his actions in the Caribbean and presented to a US court, military court, and international court. Everyone involved must also face charges.

If it isn’t a “red herring,” why hasn’t Johnson seated the new congresswoman already?

Dem Congressman James Walkinshaw (VA) won a special election September 9, 2025; he was seated Sept 10.

Adelita S. Grijalva (AZ) won her special election Sept 23, 2025 but has yet to be seated.

Khanna: "We have to understand how abnormal this is. You don't mock someone and put a video out about how they look. You don't ever mock people's ethnicity. How do you negotiate with that? And how have we made this normal?"

Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, were killed by an individual impersonating a police officer. -- Hortman was assassinated by a far right extremist along with her husband and dog. The man had a long list of Democrats he planned to kill, and was caught after shooting Minnesota Democrat John Hoffman and his wife Yvette who thankfully survived

Headline from time with a photo of Charlie Kirk at the event where he was murdered, smiling and waving at the crowd. The preview time has shared indicates that this will be the cover story of the next magazine. The headline reads The Killing of Charlie Kirk and the Political Violence Haunting America

The asymmetrical media response to political violence in America is, in itself, one of the most important contributing factors to how we arrived at this place of escalating political violence.

They dragged out more than 300 S Korean engineers & specialists. People flown in to help stand the place up so it could eventually employ thousands of Americans.

It wasn’t scheduled open until 2026. These workers weren’t taking jobs; they were building the factory that would create them.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans.

And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich.

Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

30 cases of voter fraud annually, and the GOP passes 104 voter suppression laws.
47,000 gun deaths a year, and the GOP does absolutely NOTHING.

Trump did this

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Blumenthal: "My stomach turned when I heard the president of the United States characterize Vladimir Putin as his fabulously good friend. Vladimir Putin is a war criminal."

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

And then that guy was "silenced" forever.

And now we will just not talk about anything else until they...
