2:29Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump is losing it on Sunday morning as his regime is collapsing under its own cover-ups. Their attempt to defame Alex Pretti after he was brutally murdered by Border Patrol goons has backfired in the regime's face. Donald Trump has been ranting and raving like a lunatic on social media, mostly whining about his golden ballroom right now. But he sent his sycophants to do all of the morning shows on Sunday. And I don't think I've ever seen any politician show such hatred for the Second Amendment, the First Amendment, and the Fourth Amendment as these Trump political sycophants in the House and the Senate and in Trump's cabinet.

3:16Ben Meiselas:But particularly in this video, I want you to focus on their hatred for the Second Amendment and just how hypocritical they have been all of these years when now confronted with the regime's collapse. It turns out they actually hate the Second Amendment in terms of how the Second Amendment is supposed to be used. I want to start by just showing these photos of Alex Peretti. And I want to say his name. And I want to say the name Renee Nicole Good. And I want to send my heartfelt sympathies to their families, to everyone in Minnesota, to everyone in this country, and to everyone, frankly, in the world who is suffering as a result of this despicable regime.

3:59Ben Meiselas:I wake up every morning here at the Midas Touch Network just trying to do my part, however I can, to fight back and to try to be your voice. And I'll continue to try to do that to the best of my ability. So as I mentioned, Donald Trump is absolutely losing it this morning. Just take a look visually at what his post looked like without even getting into the content. And you may be saying, is Donald Trump addressing the murder of Alex Preddy? Is Donald Trump addressing the fact that Americans can't afford homes right now? They can't pay their rent. They can't afford groceries. Their health care is being ripped away.

4:38Ben Meiselas:What is Donald Trump ranting and raving about on a Sunday with this massive paragraph, capital words, lowercase words? It all looks like one big mess. Let's zoom in and here's what he's saying. I'm building on top of everything else that I'm doing one of the greatest and most beautiful ballrooms. Then Donald Trump says this is a gift and taxpayers aren't paying for it at all. But Trump's rich billionaire friends are paying for it. And he says this is the most important thing that it should be on all of our minds right now because for great state events, dinners, conferences, and future inaugurations, he says, this will be utilized and we should all be very happy for it.

5:20Ben Meiselas:And then Donald Trump says, do I get praised for this? He goes, no. As usual, I got sued. This time by the radical left national no trust for historic preservation. So he claims that the National Trust for Historic Preservation is a leftist group, and he calls it the No Trust for Historic Preservation. And then Donald Trump says this is a group that couldn't care less about our country. He goes on to say that he's already picked out the marble, the stone, precast concrete, bulletproof windows and glass. He says it is ready to go, but he says because the historic preservation group has filed a lawsuit to now block the construction of the new ballroom, which, by the way, a federal judge by the name of Judge Leon seems to think that the construction should be blocked, that it violated a lot of the law that we've been talking about here on the Midas Touch Network.

6:18Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump says it's too late to sue us. It's too late. Why didn't these obstructionist and troublemakers bring their lawsuit much earlier? Donald Trump says that Congress never tried or wanted to stop the ballroom project. Just pause there. The fact that your sycophants like MAGA Mike Johnson and others in Congress did not stop it, you think that's permission? or perhaps it's actually the Article 1 role to pass laws about these things versus you just bringing cranes and bulldozers and tearing to shreds the East Wing of the White House and ignoring things like, I don't know, asbestos mitigation.

6:58Ben Meiselas:I think we're going to find out that there are a lot of people who got mesothelioma as a result of what took place. And so bring this video back when we learn more about that. Then Donald Trump says the former tiny East Wing was so bastardized. He says, additionally, this is being done with the design consent and approval at the highest levels of the military and secret service. So no taxpayers are going to pay for it, but the military and secret service are doing this at the highest top secret level, he says. It's a top secret fact, stoppage of construction. This is too late. Also, as I pointed out many months ago, they are redoing the bunker under the East Wing.

7:42Ben Meiselas:And I said, that's a major part of this, that Trump, like Hitler and like lots of other authoritarians, are terrified of their regime's collapse. And I said, a lot of this was about the secret bunker, and Donald Trump seems to admit it there, and that taxpayers are paying for it. So that's what Trump is focused on. Now let's take a look at his sycophants in his cabinet, in the House, and in the Senate. And as I mentioned, Their assault on the Second Amendment is so pronounced right here in their attempt to cover up the murder of Alex Preti, who had a lawful permit to conceal carry. He was following the law to a T of what the Second Amendment actually says, not what the MAGAs wanted to say, where they're like, well, you could bring semi-automatic weapons and ARs by schools.

8:29Ben Meiselas:No, that's not what the Second Amendment for. But the right to conceal carry is precisely what it's for in a situation the way Freddie didn't. Freddie didn't brandish the gun. Watch what happens as Scott Besson, Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary, is confronted about this on one of the morning shows. Take a look at what Besson has to say. Let's play it. I am sorry that this gentleman is dead, but he did bring a 9mm semi-automatic weapon with two cartridges to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest. I think that there are a lot of paid agitators who are genning things up, and the governor has not done a good job of tamping this down.

9:08Yeah, I mean, as you know, he was an ICU nurse, worked for the Veterans Administration, and there's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever. But he brought a gun. He was disarmed before he was. I brought a gun. Have you ever gone to a protest, Jonathan? I mean, we do have a Second Amendment in this country that - Jonathan, have you ever gone to a protest? I mean - Have you gone to a protest? I mean, I've - no, actually, as a reporter covering it - Okay, I've been to a protest. Guess what? I didn't bring a gun. I brought a billboard.

9:34Ben Meiselas:Okay. Secretary Besson, thank you. Now, here's what Cash Patel had to say. Play this clip. No, I mean, thousands of people are marching through Minneapolis. They are targeting the Border Patrol. I mean, it feels like the rhetoric and the the protesting is only ramping up. What is your advice to the people right now who are outraged that this is a second killing at the hands of Border Patrol in two weeks? I guess Christie said you cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have that right to break the law and incite violence.

10:12We will, of course, always protect your First Amendment speech. And if you peacefully protest, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. But you have seen a trend here, not just in Minnesota, but across the country in these protests turning into violent scenarios and people attacking law enforcement. That's when you go over the line and that's when law enforcement steps in.

10:31Ben Meiselas:Now, here's what Kristi Noem had to say. Play this clip. You know, my message to individuals is don't go impede law enforcement operations. That's not legal. You're breaking the law when you do that. It's also breaking the law to conceal carry in Minnesota without an ID on you. and you shouldn't be laying hand. More from Kristi Noem right here. Let's play this clip. Separate from the specific investigation, we know that Alex Preddy, according to officials in Minnesota, was legally a concealed carry permit holder. He had his gun legally. If is your message to people who are concealed carry permits that if they're going to go to a protest, they should leave their gun in the car?

11:08You know, my message to individuals is don't go impede law enforcement operations. That's not legal. You're breaking the law when you do that. It's also breaking the law to concealed carry in Minnesota without an ID on you. And you shouldn't be laying hands on law enforcement and getting in their faces and trying to stop them from conducting their work. All of that is part of protocol, but it also is the law. And when people are in violation for the law, there's consequences for that.

11:34Ben Meiselas:Last night, our reporter in Minneapolis. And here is what Steve Scalise, MAGA Republican Congress member, had to say when he was confronted about the same issue. Play this clip. You have been a supporter of the Second Amendment. When Secretary Noem says, I don't know of any peaceful protester that shows up with a gun and ammo rather than a sign, do you believe Americans have the right to bear arms while they're protesting? Well, first of all, I'm a co-sponsor of Louisiana's law that allows you to have a concealed carry permit. It's worked very well there. I don't know the state law in Minnesota.

12:08I know in a state like Louisiana and frankly, most states, you are not allowed to carry a gun while you're committing another crime. And interfering with law enforcement is a felony. It's something that unfortunately we're seeing in a lot of cities. You even had the police chief yesterday, Chief O 'Hara that you just had on yesterday said of the protests going on after the shooting that they were unlawful. Yes. He actually said it was an unlawful assembly, what a lot of people are doing. And they were throwing things at ICE agents, throwing projectiles that could harm ICE agents. So, yeah, let's tone this down.

12:43And leaders in Minnesota, by the way, have been ratcheting up the rhetoric. I mean, you saw the governor, Governor Walz said they're Gestapo. He said they're violently hurting people. I'm going to have to take this commercial break and let you finish the thought on the.

12:57Ben Meiselas:Now, I also find it interesting, you know, when you see the manipulation taking place here by Trump's MAGA Republican sycophants, how people are consuming news and how this brainwashing happens in mass in our country. So you take a look at a story like this. Immigrant families protest at Texas facility housing five-year-old boy and father. By now, you know, the Trump regime, they're kidnapping children. They kidnapped Liam, the five-year-old, wearing that blue hat, and they used him as bait in order to lure out his father, who, by the way, was an asylum seeker who was here going through the right process.

13:35Ben Meiselas:And then they sent them to concentration camps in Texas. Similarly, they kidnapped a two-year-old girl when there was an order protecting her and her father from being sent to concentration camps. But you take a look right here at this story. Again, immigrant families protest at Texas facility housing five-year-old boy's father. If you look at the distribution of the coverage here, left media is covering this. Center media is covering this about equal zero right-wing coverage right now that there are massive protests taking place in Texas about their kidnapping of this five-year-old boy. And that just goes to tell me we need to focus on the media diet that people are receiving.

14:18Ben Meiselas:And that's how I also focus my coverage here at the Midas Touch Network to ensure whether you're a Democrat, Republican, Independent, whether you're from another country. If you're just a human being and you want the objective truth, I want to make sure I'm programming this for you so you leave here enriched with knowledge because knowledge is power. So I'm often asked, how do I stay up to date on all the news that I get in order for me to make these videos? Well, my number one news source is something called Ground News. It's a subscriber-funded app and news site, and every day they pull in thousands of articles from around the world and organize them by story and then show you what's the right reporting, what's the center reporting, what's the left reporting.

15:00Ben Meiselas:It's a game changer because as active, responsible citizens, we must get our news from reliable sources. In Trump's America, being informed about facts and media bias, it's the most important thing you can do. But that's why I love Ground News for every article. They also tell you, did a media conglomerate put this news out or was it independent media? And they also list the degree of factuality, which is interesting, as there's a lot of news sources for media conglomerates that have mixed or low factuality. Independent media seems to have a higher factuality, but you get all of that with your Ground News Vantage subscription.

15:31Ben Meiselas:I especially like their Blindspot feed, which highlights stories that are disproportionately covered by one side of the political spectrum, like the story I just shared with you about immigrant families protesting at the Texas facility. facility after Trump's regime kidnapped a five-year-old boy and the boy's father.

16:03Ben Meiselas:That's G-R-O-U-N-D dot news slash MTN. And we pin the link to purchase your subscription below. So I want to get you more data right now as well. Greg Bovino, the leader of the Border Patrol, he was on the morning shows and he was asked, you've said that Alex Peretti was there to massacre law enforcement. Where are you getting that information from? Here's what Bovino said. Play this clip. Well, you said yesterday that this looks like a situation where the individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement. What evidence do you have that he wanted to massacre law enforcement? Because all the videos that we have, and I do want to, we just have this still shot up now, but I do, Control Room, want to play one of the other videos.

16:52Let's play video number one again. It doesn't look anything like he's trying to massacre law enforcement. In fact, he was filming, and then it looked like he was trying to help another individual there who was pushed down by law enforcement, and then they went after him. In fact, I believe that the fantastic training that our law enforcement partners have, the fact that they're highly trained, prevented any specific shootings of law enforcement. So good job for our law enforcement in taking him down before he was able to do that. And again, Dana, let's look at why he was there in the first place.

17:34Was he simply walking by and just happened to walk into a law enforcement situation and try to direct traffic and stand in the middle of the road and then assault, delay and obstruct law enforcement?

17:47Ben Meiselas:Todd Blanche was on the morning shows and he was asked about this as well. Here's what Todd Blanche had to say. Let's play this clip. that city. You're saying he wasn't protesting peacefully and yet the video before shows him holding up a cell phone, directing traffic. The video after shows him being pummeled by these law enforcement. Everyone has now seen this video across the country with this man holding up a cell phone. And part of the outrage that people are expressing is that they feel as though the federal government is asking them to believe something that they don't see with their own two eyes.

18:27Is that what the administration is asking of the American people to believe that he was violent when the video, based on what everyone has seen so far, does not show that? Well, first of all, I did not say he was violent. I said he was not protesting peacefully. And you just described what every American has seen, which is video shortly ahead of the incident, where he was screaming in the face of ICE. He had a phone up right into ICE's face. You tell me, is that protesting peacefully? I mean, we all see the same thing. I mean, you shouldn't try to gaslight the administration about what happened.

19:05That was not a peaceful protest. And yes, what happened afterwards is tragic. It is horrible. It is heartbreaking. But make no mistake about it, that would have never happened. That would have never happened. And it doesn't happen in cities around this country every single day. but for the complete failure, the complete failure by the mayor and by the governor to do anything, to do anything to protect their citizens. They park their officers blocks and blocks away while they just let ICE go and they let citizens just come and do whatever they want to try to torment and to try to agitate officers doing their job.

19:41Ben Meiselas:I want to show you this lawyer, Eric Lee. Here's what he posted as well. Remember how I talked about the Texas detention facilities before? Well, Eric Lee, a lawyer, was doing a client visit with clients at this facility, and there was a protest taking place because the conditions at these detention centers are concentration camp-like. They are horrible. And the Trump Gestapo prevent people from really seeing how horrific these conditions are, where many people are dying at these detention centers. Last year, as far as we know, at least 30 deaths. This year already in January, about seven deaths at detention centers.

20:22Ben Meiselas:I mean, there have been multiple deaths at detention centers already this year. I just want you to see the scene. Eric Lee is there, drones above, and you'll hear people protesting, let us out, let us out. You hear the screams of people who have been kidnapped by the Trump regime behind these big walls. Who knows if they're being tortured? They are being tortured. Whether they're, the suffering there, and they're, let us out. Let us out! And you could hear them scream. Here, play this clip right here. Can you hear that? They're shouting, let us out. Let us out. There's people in blue shirts. Again, there's drones flying up ahead.

21:10There appear to be hundreds of people through the crack that I can see. And again, I was here for an attorney visit and they asked me to leave abruptly without telling me why or in people who are waiting.

21:24Ben Meiselas:Also, I think it should be noted that Maga Mike Johnson has not commented on the murder of Alex Preddy. In fact, Maga Mike Johnson has gone radio silent for the past 24 hours. No statements from Maga Mike at all. But what else would you expect from Maga Mike, who's just a complete and utter coward? There you have it, folks.
