In short

The episode argues that Donald Trump is “losing it” after Midas Touch exposed alleged missing Epstein-related records from the Southern District of New York (SDNY). The host claims at least one million, possibly 1.2 million, records were imaged in 2020 and were already accessible in SDNY electronic discovery workspaces, implying DOJ/SDNY knew and delayed or failed to turn them over. Key claim: Trump’s posts call it a “hoax”/“witch hunt,” while the episode says it retraumatizes survivors and signals cover-up. Notable example: a 2020 SDNY prosecutor email describing “approximately 1.2 million records currently being imaged.” Guests mentioned: Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia (House Oversight ranking member) and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (Oversight committee; discharge petition leader).

He was forced to acknowledge the Midas Touch reporting where we exposed that there were one million records at least that are missing from the Southern District of New York regarding the Epstein files that had not been turned over to the DOJ.

1:36Ben Meiselas:It's my belief that the Southern District of New York had been trying to turn it over to the Department of Justice, but I believe the Department of Justice has been covering it up since we are aware that the DOJ and the Southern District of New York knew about these documents, these million plus records that the Midas Touch Network identified back in 2020. So here's what Donald Trump just posted. And again, the Midas Touch Network was the first to break this story. A reminder to hit subscribe here. We're on our way to 1 million subscribers. You see the power of independent media. And so you can also help us out by going to our substack, MidasPlus.com.

2:12Ben Meiselas:You see the stories were breaking while corporate news bends the knee and while they break. Here's what Donald Trump posted moments ago. Now, one million more pages on Epstein are found. DOJ is being forced to spend all of its time on this Democrat inspired hoax. When do they say no more and work on election fraud, etc.? The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans. release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our country. The radical left doesn't want people talking about Trump and Republican success. Only a long ago, dead Jeffrey Epstein, just another witch hunt.

2:59Ben Meiselas:So once again, Donald Trump is referring to the Epstein files as a hoax. He's saying that it is a witch hunt. The amount of re-traumatizing of survivors is hard to even put in words what's taking place when Donald Trump continues to make posts like this and his behavior is like this. And it obviously speaks to a vile cover up. Also, you have Donald Trump saying, go after the Democrats, embarrass them, shame the Democrats and shame them. This is not a political thing. This is not about shaming Democrats, Republicans, independents. What it is about is exposing this child sex trafficking ring and all of the perpetrators who have been involved.

3:48Ben Meiselas:And the Trump regime has been treating the perpetrators, the individuals who are co-conspirators, the individuals who had been hanging out with Epstein as though they are the victims while engaging in this heinous conduct against the victims. As we posted here on the Midas Touch Network, this move is deeply offensive to Epstein's victims and treats a serious criminal investigation as a political prop, underscoring how Trump continues to mock the justice system while panicking over revelations tied to his own dark, dark past. And Donald Trump was once a Democrat. When Donald Trump was friends with Epstein, Trump was a Democrat.

4:31Ben Meiselas:And I don't care what your political party was or your affiliation is, you deserve to be exposed and held accountable for engaging in this conduct and behavior. Now, as you know, it was several days back when the Midas Touch Network reported on the missing one million emails. Here's what I wrote. And Trump's now got to respond to it. And he's panicking. He's losing it. I wrote this email from Epstein SDNY, Southern District of New York prosecutors in 2020 suggests that there are approximately 1.2 million records being imaged in just one hard drive. I wrote there are likely other hard drives as well.

5:11Ben Meiselas:I would not be surprised if there are actually tens of millions of records. You see this email Friday, October 30th, 2020. The subject is phone call follow-up. It's from prosecutors to contractors in the Southern District of New York who are likely working on document production and document review. And it says, good afternoon, following up on our earlier phone conversation, a hard drive with the following production is being sent to SDNY via FedEx with the following production in the U.S. versus Epstein workspace. Then it lists one through seven SDNY production eight through SDNY production 14 with SDNY production 11 having six sub parts, six part production in SDNY 11.

6:00Ben Meiselas:Then the drafter of this email goes, there are approximately 1.2 million records currently being imaged. The images will be available on Monday, November 2nd, 2020 at the earliest. The production of the records will begin as soon as the images are available in the workspace. The workspace is the electronic discovery tools that are being used to review these millions of records. So in fact, it's very easy to access these records. Why? Because they're already uploaded on a workspace. So all it would be doing is accessing the software where these files are uploaded, which SDNY certainly has, and then moving them to whatever document software is being used here to make this production.

6:45Ben Meiselas:And of course, the DOJ was aware about it. They had access to this email. They produced this email, so they could have reached out to SDNY. And also, didn't Pam Bondi say that all the files were on her desk as of February of 2025? Remember that? And remember when they said there were no co-conspirators, but now we know there were at least 10 co-conspirators who the DOJ were thinking about charging? Democratic ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, Robert Garcia. And again, they're leading the investigation here into the Epstein files. They credited the Midas Touch for making this discovery, which Donald Trump is now freaking out about.

7:24Ben Meiselas:Garcia wrote, Congress member Garcia wrote, new media organizations like Midas Touch are now critical to holding the administration accountable. Their reporting is making an impact. Now, Donald Trump's post moments ago about the million Epstein files that are missing or that have now been discovered, which were always there to begin with, that the Trump regime was covering up. Also responds to Trump's Christmas message, where he goes, Merry Christmas to all, including the many sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein, gave him bundles of money, went to his island, attended his parties, and thought he was the greatest guy on earth, only to drop him like a dog when things got too hot, falsely claimed they had nothing to do with him, didn't know him, said he was a disgusting person, and then blame, of course, Donald J.

8:12Ben Meiselas:Trump, who was actually the only one who did drop Epstein and long before it became fashionable to do so, when their names get brought out in the ongoing radical left witch hunt, plus low-life Republican Massey, and it is revealed that they are Democrats all, there will be a lot more explaining to do, much like there was when made public that Russia, Russia, Russia hoax was actually a fictitious story and a scam. Oh, got it. So you're saying Russia, Russia, Russia was a hoax. 2020 election was a hoax. COVID, you're saying, was a hoax. You're saying this is a hoax like that? No, I see what your definition of a hoax is there.

8:54Ben Meiselas:Thomas Massey, the Republican Congress member who put forward the discharge petition with Democratic Congress member Ro Khanna responded to Trump. Merry Christmas to you as well, Mr. President. So you're saying that I teamed up with radical left Democrats to expose Democrats. Wow, this 4D chess sure is fun right there. And also you have the DOJ now saying, well, the documents we did turn over includes fabricated documents and fake documents. And you can't believe the documents we turned over. They are clear fakes. They go like, like the Epstein letter to Larry Nassar. They say that's a fake. So you're turning over fake fabricated evidence.

9:35Ben Meiselas:You're hiding a million other records. Donald Trump's out there saying that his goal is to shame and embarrass Democrats. I don't think they could handle this worse if they even tried. But you remember what Donald Trump said earlier in the week? He says, they keep asking me about Epstein. I thought this was finished. Here, play this clip. Like, for instance, today we're building the biggest ships in the world, most powerful ships in the world, and they're asking me questions about Jeffrey Epstein. I thought that was finished. I believe they gave over 100 ,000 pages of documents. Or previously, when you had Maga Mike Johnson say, Epstein, Epstein, Epstein.

10:10Ben Meiselas:All they do is talk about Epstein. Here, play this clip right here. Clearly what they've been trying to do. They're trying to attack President Trump. This is what they've done. They weaponized the justice system over the last several years to go after him. and this is their latest attempt. And they don't have a platform or a principle to defend on the Democrat Party side. So they put all their eggs in this basket. And that's why you hear endlessly about Epstein, Epstein, Epstein. Everything's about Epstein. But you remember that at the Midas Touch Network, we interviewed Democratic Congress member Ro Khanna, who is leading the charge with the discharge petition, and he's on the oversight committees.

10:45Ben Meiselas:He's been there with Massey leading the discharge petition. And so what he told me is that there are a lot of potential whistleblowers out there as well. FBI whistleblowers, DOJ whistleblowers. Here's what he told me. Let's play this clip right here. I don't know if you can share this, but any FBI whistleblowers or DOJ whistleblowers who may be on the horizon, who's upset about the way this was handed, who may have been for me? We've had some approaching our office and the committee. I obviously can't get into the details, but there are people who are upset about the noncompliance of the law, and they don't want to be held accountable, right?

11:33Anyone who is at the Justice Department who's involved with this, who's not complying, could be prosecuted for obstruction of justice. Now, Pam Bondi is not going to prosecute them, and Donald Trump isn't going to have an attorney general who prosecutes them. But, you know, in 2029, we're going to have a Democratic president and that Democratic president is going to have an attorney general. And that attorney general is going to prosecute the law, not out of vindictiveness, out of just saying that you can't commit crimes and get away with it. By the way, I think that should apply to crimes, not just in violating the Epstein Transparency Act.

12:06I think it should apply to crimes with ICE, crimes in terms of the strikes in the Caribbean. We need accountability before reconciliation. So if you're at the Justice Department and you know that you're violating the law, you probably don't want obstruction of justice charges brought against you. And that's why I think more and more people are speaking up.

12:23Ben Meiselas:Well, there you have it, folks. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to six million. We appreciate you. Thanks for watching.
