Trump Looks Horrible in NY as Term Comes Crashing Down

2:30Ben Meiselas:Just look how awful Donald Trump looks, how grotesque and ghoulish he looks right there as he's spending the weekend watching the Ryder Cup golf tournament in Long Island in a town called Bethpage. Meanwhile, Americans are suffering while Donald Trump is posting videos of himself using our taxpayer dollars to fly over where this golf match is taking place. As the plane is landing, Donald Trump's approval going in that same direction, down, down, down. According to the latest APNORC NORC poll, Trump remains underwater on every single issue. I previously reported this past week on the Quinnipiac poll, which has Donald Trump's approval plummeting to only 38 % on what he considers to be his strongest issue.

3:32Ben Meiselas:Immigration, he's at 41%. On the economy, he's at 38%, 39%. Americans despise what he is doing. But according to his son, Eric Trump, who just announced that he and his daddy are making a new product they're selling, Trump vodka is being re-released this week. The Trump family announced as Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump, was advertising her new fashion line using the White House as the backdrop to sell$130 sweatshirts to MAGA. Eric Trump says, buy the dips. When it's buy the dips, that sounds like what a Ponzi schemer would say. As our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski says, okay, put more money in his crypto scheme so he can scam you more.

4:25Ben Meiselas:Speaking of scam you more, Donald Trump's out there claiming, making these posts one more time that he's ended seven wars in seven months. He just makes up wars that he had nothing to do with or that weren't even wars. Kosovo and Serbia, he stopped that. What are you even talking about there? The Congo, there's still a war going on there. People are getting killed. It's not peaceful in Congo right now. Israel and Iran. Iran has its nuclear capabilities restored. You did nothing. It was a performative, ridiculous, failed strike right there. Well, how about India and Pakistan? India said you had nothing to do with it.

5:03Ben Meiselas:But what's really happening right now is that we know from the NBC report on Friday that the U.S. is preparing options for military strikes on what they're considering drug targets inside Venezuela, sources say. Although Donald Trump has not approved any action and the U.S. and Venezuela are talking through Middle Eastern intermediaries, the United States is planning military strikes in Venezuela. This as the war continues to rage in Ukraine, as atrocities continue in Gaza. And didn't Donald Trump promise he was going to make all of that great right away? Wasn't that his promise that he was going to in 24 hours solve all of these issues?

5:42Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump is a con artist. on Friday also, we saw that the biggest rise in headline PCE in the past 16 months was reported. So that's the Fed's preferred inflation marker. It's called PCE, and it paints a picture of a very bad inflation situation. PCE heated up to 2.7 % year over year. It's a six-month high, well above the 2 % Federal Reserve target. And no wonder we also have the weakest consumer confidence since May. And by the way, it was very low in May. You go back past May, it's some of the weakest consumer confidence in the past 20 to 30 years. But don't worry, folks. The United States is planning to bail out Argentina.

6:36Ben Meiselas:Yes,$20 billion bailout for Argentina because he's a MAGA puppet, this Javier Malay. He has so mismanaged the currency in Argentina and he so destroyed their economy. Basically us giving that$20 billion to him, you might as well put that money in the trash. So while Americans are struggling to afford health care, as Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, as six million Americans aren't able to pay their student loans and are going into default, meaning that their credit is being hurt and they're not going to be able to participate in the economy. Right. As groceries are rising, the American taxpayers are freaking bailing out Argentina.

7:25Ben Meiselas:Argentina? Why are we bailing out Argentina? And not only that, it's not even going to work. We're going to be throwing that$20 million into an incinerator. Talking about throwing things into an incinerator, that's what Donald Trump's doing to the credibility of our country because every reason. But one thing I'll report from yesterday, which needs to get more attention. So Laura Loomer, right-wing extremist, she said some of the most vile, racist, hateful things, 9-11 conspiracy theorists, anti-Muslim, anti-gayers, just horrible things, horrible person. So she posted that based on her alerting Donald Trump that Lisa Monaco used to work at the DOJ, is working at Microsoft now as their president of global affairs, that Donald Trump needed to get now private citizen Lisa Monaco fired from Microsoft.

8:18Ben Meiselas:off. So Donald Trump on his retribution and vengeance tour, right? He filed that ridiculous and frankly frivolous indictment of James Comey in the Eastern District of Virginia after firing a Republican federal prosecutor, a career prosecutor who said there was no evidence. Donald Trump then replaced that career prosecutor, Eric Siebert, with his stooge, someone by the name of Lindsay Halligan, former beauty pageant contestant, now a 36-year-old insurance lawyer who's Donald Trump's personal lawyer, who Trump, zero federal experience, never been a federal prosecutor. I don't even think she's tried a case in her life, yet alone be a federal prosecutor and try those cases.

9:03Ben Meiselas:So she's the one who's brought this ridiculous thing. By the way, I can announce this here on the Midas Touch Network tomorrow. Midas Touch Network exclusive with Andy McCabe, former top employee at the FBI. And he's going to drop some bombshells. We have him on tomorrow because according to the indictment, it says that James Comey lied to the Senate when he said that he did not authorize somebody at the FBI to leak information back on October 29th, 30th-ish to the Wall Street Journal. He said, I did not authorize it. And so a lot of people the Republicans are pointing to and saying, well, Andy McCabe said that James Comey authorized it.

9:51Ben Meiselas:Well, Andy McCabe previously said that James Comey didn't authorize it. And we've got Andy McCabe on to set the record straight. And I'll just give you a hint. It's consistent with what we've known before that this is a frivolous case. So check that out on Sunday, Andy McCabe exclusively. That's a big get exclusively here on the Midas Touch Network. And shout out most importantly to Alison Gill from the Mueller. She wrote the MSW Network because she's the one who got that interview and she's bringing it on the Midas Touch Network. So shout out to Alison. Anyway, so as part of Donald Trump's vengeance and retribution tour, Donald Trump then posts, this is what he posted on the social media.

10:28Ben Meiselas:He goes corrupt and totally Trump deranged Lisa Monaco, a purported pawn of legal lightweight Andrew Weissman, was a senior national security aide under Barack Hussein Obama and lawfare and weaponization obsessed deputy attorney general under crooked Joe Biden and Lisa Puppet's boss, attorney general Merrick Garland, who were all architects of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, Russia, Russia, Russia. She then goes, Monaco has been shockingly hired as president of global affairs for Microsoft, a very senior role with access to highly sensitive information. It is my opinion that Microsoft should immediately terminate the employment of Lisa Monaco.

11:08Ben Meiselas:Thank you for your attention to this matter, DJT. As our editor-in-chief Ron Filipkowski has made clear, he goes, a pattern is emerging. Those who stand up to this regime leave with their reputation intact and they're able to defeat the regime. Those who bend the knee, those who capitulate lose. They have their reputation in tatters and Donald Trump comes for you again. So if you think you can appease this guy with whatever, nope, he views that as weakness and he's going to come for you over. You need to stand up to him and you need to call out this authoritarian regime for what it is. Give a shout out to the House Oversight Dems led by Democratic Congress member Robert Garcia.

11:54Ben Meiselas:A third batch of Epstein files was obtained not from the DOJ. They're in cover-up mode. Donald Trump has said, do not turn over the Epstein files. Three terabytes, four terabytes of information being concealed by the Department of Justice. But from the Epstein estate, Democrats have got a new batch of documents, and I've done a lot of takes on it. But the new documents show meetings with Epstein and Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, and a potential visit to Epstein Island for Elon Musk and Prince Andrew appearing on the flight manifests as well. But by the way, in addition to Donald Trump forcing out Eric Siebert, that Republican prosecutor, this is that very high profile right in Virginia, because he then replaced her with Lindsey Halligan, the stooge, never been a federal prosecutor, but he's doing this across the country.

12:42Ben Meiselas:Like this New York Times article, Trump fired U.S. attorney who insisted on following a court order. Top federal prosecutor in Sacramento was fired hours after she reminded a Border Patrol chief to abide by court order restrictions on immigration raids. It talked about how for 15 years, Michelle Beckwith oversaw some of the toughest federal prosecutions in California. She went after transnational terrorists, sex traffickers, and the Aryan Brotherhood. She became the acting United States attorney, but her career crumbled last month after she just issued a warning to one of Donald Trump's ICE Gestapo leaders, Gregory Bovino, the California face of Trump's immigration assault, we should call it.

13:28Ben Meiselas:And the dismissal of Beckwith is part of Donald Trump's vengeance tour right there. And also, I just want to remind everybody about some of these atrocities that are being committed. Folks, there are 1 ,200 people missing from the Alligator Alcatraz concentration camp. Nobody knows where these people are. They could be dead, sent to other countries. 1 ,200. We know about 20 people, 17 to 20 people have already been killed dead at these concentration camps across the country. That can be accounted for. 1 ,200 remain missing. Oh, and by the way, speaking about missing people, can we go back to the Guadalupe River in Texas a few months back?

14:12Ben Meiselas:Remember on July 4th, all of those young little girls who were killed in the flash floods there? And remember how just people just turn their attention away? I want to bring it up in this video because I just want you to think about how FEMA utterly botched that, how FEMA leaders, many of them quit and were forced out for calling out the fact that FEMA did not provide the urban search and rescue crews that were needed on time. They shut down the call centers. You had Kristi Noem. Where the hell was she? Now she has to sign off on any cost over$100 ,000 while the urban search and rescue teams were not deployed on time.

14:50Ben Meiselas:You had the kind of Republican localities there, stole money essentially from the federal government, which were for warning systems. They did not install the warning systems. Instead, they used it to pay themselves bonuses. A systemic MAGA Republican failure, hundreds of kids dead and missing. And then it just, whatever, it just doesn't get talked about anymore. That's why I'm bringing it up right now. What the hell? That's everything with MAGA. Just can you imagine if that happened as a result of Democratic leadership? There would be arrests, criminal penalties, people put to prison, perhaps for the rest of their life, for the criminal negligence taking place.

15:28Ben Meiselas:But when it comes to MAGA Republicans and mass casualties events, even back to COVID in 2020, it's like, yeah, whatevs, spread some conspiracy, just show up like Melania did and start wearing some bracelets or Donald Trump say, oh, you know, the waves were so big, you could surf it. That's how high the water was. You could surf it. I mean, the level of stupidity and dangerous and vileness just needs to be called out more and more and more. And it's just not. And you pair that, of course, with just, you know, the grift taking place again, more Kai selling her$130 sweatshirts or T-shirts. I'll leave you all with this as Donald Trump is watching more golf on the taxpayer dime.

16:12Ben Meiselas:We've now have more reporting from Dan Lamothe over at The Washington Post about what Pete Hegseth is doing with all of these military generals. He ordered all the top military generals and admirals and top military brass. They all have to leave wherever they are in the world and show up. They don't know why. Why are we showing up? Like, what do you want us? They want that they're going to go to Quantico in Virginia. And Hegseth ordered all these generals to travel on short notice. Now we know why. Because he wants them to hear him make a speech in person on military standards and the warrior ethos.

16:50Ben Meiselas:Multiple people familiar with the event told the Washington Post. It's meant to be an eyeball to eyeball kind of conversation. He wants to see the generals. The planning comes as Hegseth's order to appear for the speech drove confusion about whether anything else might be coming on Tuesday when that meeting set to take place. I don't know, like the Ba 'ath Party purge by Saddam Hussein in 1979 or what Hitler did in 1935 with his military generals. Confusion over the event has raised lots of questions about what the hell is even happening here. So, folks, that's what's going on. I want to give you the comprehensive update on everything as Donald Trump is there gallivanting with golf, playing golf as he's demolishing the White House to build a 90 ,000 square foot ballroom.

17:39Ben Meiselas:And by the way, can someone sue to stop that freaking ballroom from being built as Donald Trump's posting for UFC stadium memes in front of the White House and all this utter ridiculousness as Eric Trump is telling by the dip. Americans are struggling right now. And this regime is so not just out of touch, but vile and malicious and authoritarian. And we have to speak right now more than ever with moral clarity.
