Speaker 12 Donald Trump was rage posting into the early hours of the night at around 1 a.m.

Speaker 15 This is what he was posting.

Speaker 17 Gavin Newscombe is way down in the polls.

Speaker 15 He is viewed as the man who is destroying the once great state of California.

Speaker 19 I will save California.

Speaker 17 Exclamation point. President DJT.
That's what you're doing at 1 a.m.

Speaker 20 in the morning.

Speaker 15 Seems like you've got Gavin Newsom on your mind, to which California Governor Gavin Newsom responds with snowflake emojis because that is the character of a snowflake.

Speaker 14 Then, again, very late at night, Donald Trump in all caps posts, MSNBC is doing so poorly in the ratings that they're looking to change their name in order to get away from the stench of their fake news product.

Speaker 17 I think the only stench that's out there, and we saw those European leaders around you, is your stench, Donald, both your actual stench and the stench of weakness and fascism that can be smelled on you by European leaders and our enemies like Putin.

Speaker 22 Then Donald Trump goes on to go, so much fun to watch their weak and ineffective owner Concast headed by dopey Brian Roberts, hopelessly and aimlessly flowing in the wind in an attempt to disassociate itself from the garbage that they created.

Speaker 15 MSNBC is failure by any name.

Speaker 30 I don't know.

Speaker 9 Why don't you just focus on bringing down prices?

Speaker 11 Why don't you focus on making healthcare care accessible for the people?

Speaker 11 Why don't you focus on making education accessible for the people?

Speaker 22 One of the things that I like about California Governor Newsom mocking Donald Trump in the style that Donald Trump does is to point out just the entire idiocracy of this.

Speaker 24 And when you see the right-wing snowflakes go, oh, why would you, as the governor of the biggest state, behave like this?

Speaker 16 He's mocking Donald Trump's behavior because this behavior right now is so unbecoming of anyone near any proximity of any leadership position, yet alone the presidency of the United States.

Speaker 31 And then once Donald Trump doesn't fulfill one of his promises or what I call his actual affirmative frauds, what does he say?

Speaker 24 Well, I never really meant that we would bring peace to Ukraine in 24 hours.

Speaker 32 I was clearly being sarcastic.

Speaker 11 I'm a jokester. I'm like a stand-up comedian.

Speaker 12 These are deeply serious times and deeply unserious people represented by the fascist clown himself in Donald Trump.

Speaker 22 And by the way, he's sending emails like this out now almost every other day.

Speaker 36 I know you don't see this really anywhere else.

Speaker 15 I subscribe to his emails, so you don't have to, but it's very telling what's taking place right here.

Speaker 28 So this morning, you wake up and you get an email like this.

Speaker 37 Please, I'm starting to worry.

Speaker 35 You've got one last shot.

Speaker 4 Ben, this is getting sad.

Speaker 11 I've asked you so many times to complete my official MAGA poll.

Speaker 26 I'm worried about you.

Speaker 39 This is is your last chance.

Speaker 22 So I just look because I'm pretty confident I got this email multiple times.

Speaker 21 And if you look, he sends it on August 17th, August 14th, August 11th, August 7th, August 6th.

Speaker 4 Basically, every day or every three days, he sends his supporters letters saying, I'm starting to worry about you. This is getting sad.

Speaker 28 My feelings are getting hurt.

Speaker 4 This is part of the abusive manipulation.

Speaker 11 It's very intentional and it's done as a cult leader to say, are you moving away from me?

Speaker 13 I need you.

Speaker 4 Aren't we so close together?

Speaker 34 That's what these tactics are.

Speaker 14 And I just want to call them out right now.

Speaker 29 Then Donald Trump posts actual fake polls about himself.

Speaker 36 59% approval rating for President Trump.

Speaker 24 Massive lead over the Democrats.

Speaker 15 Like he's his own source now for polls.

Speaker 24 He gets rid of all of the data people in the government as well, creates his own data, has his own people do his own fake polls.

Speaker 20 Donald Trump is the lowest polling president in the history of the United States at this time.

Speaker 31 If you're so popular, then tell your MAGA Republicans, rather than going back to their districts where they're now eliminating Democratic congressional seats like the freaking fascists that you all are, why don't you tell them to hold town halls in front of the people, in front of their constituents, look their constituents in the eyes and explain why they ripped away their constituents' health.

Speaker 34 care, why they ripped away their constituents' futures, why things are getting way more expensive, why we're tariffing the world based on your dictatorial fantasies, why you're out there coddling Putin in Alaska and throwing Ukraine under the bus.

Speaker 30 Why don't you hold town halls and speak proudly about your disastrous budget bill and find out what the people really think about you?

Speaker 36 And if you're so confident, then why are you trying to rig the midterms?

Speaker 40 Oh, that's right, because you're a fascist like Vladimir Putin.

Speaker 45 You are a vile piece of trash, and you are a scared and weak human being who we, the people, will eventually defeat.

Speaker 4 You don't scare us for one minute.

Speaker 22 Other posts from Donald Trump this morning are all along those lines.

Speaker 11 Any California school district that doesn't adhere to our transgender policies will not be funded.

Speaker 27 Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Speaker 9 Okay, go.

Speaker 38 Tough guy, huh?

Speaker 17 Tough guy, picking on the transgender community.

Speaker 11 Bow down to Putin. Make our troops get down on their knees in front of Vladimir Putin, but you pick on the transgender kid because that's what weak and pathetic people like you do.

Speaker 4 Rather than uplift, rather than put your arm around marginalized communities you beat people down that's what you do that's what bullies do that's what weak people do oh and then donald trump made this post saying that if he's able to rig the midterms the way he's trying to do right now like he did in texas yesterday where they've now got rid of the five democratic seats Then there doesn't need to be politics anymore.

Speaker 36 You just have Donald Trump as the dictator.

Speaker 3 This is literally what he writes.

Speaker 21 I mean, he goes, big win for the great state of Texas. Everything passed on our way to five more congressional seats and saving your rights and your freedoms and your country itself.

Speaker 40 Texas never lets us down.

Speaker 14 Florida, Indiana, and others are looking to do the same thing.

Speaker 4 More seats equals less crime.

Speaker 36 Just pause there for a second.

Speaker 16 The highest crime is in red states. Why don't you send your National Guard to the red states?

Speaker 31 Oh, wait, it's because you're a fascist and you want to literally destroy our democracy and destroy blue states.

Speaker 36 We need to speak about these things, folks, folks, in the accurate terms of what's taking place here.

Speaker 11 That he's sending the military against blue states because what he would like to do is send them all out there before the midterms, scare people into not going out to vote, rig the election to get all of these Democratic seats eliminated.

Speaker 38 And that's their hope.

Speaker 36 That's their only hope right there.

Speaker 35 But you know who did stuff like that?

Speaker 3 Hitler.

Speaker 35 You know who do stuff like that? Putin. You know who does stuff like that?

Speaker 38 Lukashenko?

Speaker 22 That's who Donald Trump's in.

Speaker 40 And by the way, the rest of the world looks at America right now like a fascist state.

Speaker 36 You want to know why tourism is down so much? You can brag and say, nobody's crossing the border.

Speaker 33 Nobody crosses the border of North Korea.

Speaker 11 No one wants to be in Kim Jong-un, North Korea.

Speaker 22 You know how many friends and people I know from other countries saying they cancel their trips into the United States because they're fearful they're going to get put into freaking concentration camps for which you're now building 1,000 concentration camps across the country and disappearing human beings?

Speaker 39 Sorry, I digress.

Speaker 40 This goes on to talk about more seats equals less crime, a great economy, and a strong Second Amendment.

Speaker 16 You just see just saying the freaking

Speaker 43 MAGA brain rot.

Speaker 38 You're not doing any actual progress for people.

Speaker 37 It means happiness and peace.

Speaker 11 But Republicans, there's one thing even better.

Speaker 40 Stop mail-in voting, a total fraud that has no bounds.

Speaker 41 Also go to paper ballots before it's too late.

Speaker 23 At one-tenth, the cost, faster and more reliable.

Speaker 38 If we do these two things, we'll pick up 100 seats and the crooked game of politics is over.

Speaker 40 God bless America.

Speaker 19 What a dangerous and vile, disgusting piece of trash this is.

Speaker 3 There's no other way around it.

Speaker 31 I'm sorry.

Speaker 37 I could try to search for other words, but there really isn't anything other than the worst human being ever in the United States of America.

Speaker 10 This message is brought to you by our sponsor, Americans United for separation of church and state.

Speaker 10 You don't destroy 250 years of secular democracy without gutting the rule of law, shattering norms, and dropping a few billion dollars.

Speaker 10 The same people and groups that backed Project 2025 are part of a larger shadow network that's relentlessly pushing to impose a Christian nationalist agenda on our laws and lives.

Speaker 10 The wall between church and state is the last safeguard blocking their agenda.

Speaker 10 We at the Midas Touch podcast support their goal of forming a thriving democracy that functions and advances towards its promises.

Speaker 39 If you're a regular here, you know we're all about empowering ourselves and our viewers and finding ways ways to create hope in these wild and terrifying times.

Speaker 10 One of the places I found hope in are organizations, just like Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Speaker 39 AU is quite the force.

Speaker 10 It's fighting daily to preserve freedom without favor and equality without exception for every single American.

Speaker 10 They advocate for every individual's right to believe and live as you choose, so long as you don't harm others.

Speaker 39 Now, that is what freedom really is all about.

Speaker 10 Whether you're passionate about gender gender-affirming healthcare, reproductive rights, LGBTQ plus rights, or supporting our public schools, church-state separation touches almost every constitutional freedom.

Speaker 10 If you're looking for a way to take action and support our fundamental freedoms, join Americans United for separation of church and state and their growing movement, because church-state separation protects us all.

Speaker 4 That's

Speaker 10 u.org slash midas one more time that's it's the letter a the letter u dot org slash midas and you spell midas m-e-i-d-a-s oh and then as he is allowing Russia to attack Ukraine at rates significantly higher than ever before, as he's no longer even talking about ceasefire, Trump has the audacity to write this.

Speaker 24 It's very hard, if not impossible.

Speaker 32 By the way, all these posts late last night into this morning.

Speaker 29 It's very hard, if not impossible, to win a war without attacking an invader's country.

Speaker 36 It's like a great team in sports that has a fantastic defense, but is not allowed to play offense. There's no chance of winning.

Speaker 40 It is like that with Ukraine and Russia. Crooked and grossly incompetent Joe Biden would not let Ukraine fight back, only defend.
How did that work out?

Speaker 40 Regardless, this is a war that would never have happened if I were president.

Speaker 36 Zero chance. Interesting times ahead.

Speaker 11 President DJT is going to continue what?

Speaker 35 To blame former President Biden for anything as you literally bent the knee as you kneeled as you put our soldiers on their knees rolling out a red carpet for vladimir putin as you attack ukraine as you withhold weapons from ukraine you're going to attack biden who gave ukraine the intelligence to stop kyiv from being taken over in three days who worked with our allies to support ukraine probably could have supported ukraine more fair point but he supported ukraine and kept ukraine free and sovereign unlike you unlike unlike you, who wants to sell out Ukraine and NATO and the rest of the Western world to Putin.

Speaker 27 It's obvious what you want to do.

Speaker 32 Oh, and then he has Lindsay Halligan, his former lawyer.

Speaker 16 She's been making the rounds.

Speaker 37 She goes on one of these right-wing propaganda shows today and she goes, Why are we talking about slavery and all how bad slavery is at the Smithsonian?

Speaker 32 Why are we doing that?

Speaker 40 Here's what Halligan says: Play this clip.

Speaker 3 So,

Speaker 47 while slavery

Speaker 47 is obviously a horrible aspect of our nation's history, you can't really talk about slavery honestly unless you also talk about hope and progress.

Speaker 47 And I think we need to be focusing on the progress that we've made since then. And we need to stop focusing so much on

Speaker 47 the lack of progress. We need to keep moving forward as a country.

Speaker 30 Then Donald Trump puts on Bill Pultey,

Speaker 41 who's appointed himself chairman of Fannie Mae, who's also the head of the Fair Housing Agency.

Speaker 18 And so what he does, this Bill Pulte guy, is he looks through all of Donald Trump's political opponents, like mortgage records, and he goes, ooh, if you sign this, and I think that there's fraud there.

Speaker 29 And then he makes DOJ referrals against Donald Trump's political enemies.

Speaker 22 And he usually talks like he's targeted New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Speaker 41 He's targeted the first ever African-American Federal Reserve governor, Lisa Cook.

Speaker 18 He's trying to push her off because they want to get rid of anybody who doesn't support Donald Trump's fascist views of the Federal Reserve, which would just destroy our economy and make it look like Russia.

Speaker 31 But here's what Bill Pultey went on TV and talked about his criminal referrals.

Speaker 37 I mean, to have the head of the Fair Housing Agency, have you ever been seen previous Fair Housing Agency and chairman of

Speaker 18 Fannie Mae on TV talking about political things, yet alone talking about how they're going to go after Trump's political enemies?

Speaker 3 That's what's called raw, unadulterated fascism.

Speaker 41 Here, play this clip.

Speaker 48 And I think it's very disrespectful both to the country, to the president, and frankly, even to the Federal Reserve for this lady to stay in office.

Speaker 49 Well, look,

Speaker 49 grand juries,

Speaker 49 what is this going to take? 18 months or something? I mean, when you get a criminal referral, this could go on now for a year or no.

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 48 No, I mean, you can move very quick. I mean, look, this is the black and white situation from my perspective.
It's either did she sign these documents or not.

Speaker 48 You know, it's funny is they tried to go after President Trump on complete nonsense. He was totally innocent.
In this case, you see these signatures. Did you sign this document or did you not?

Speaker 48 And she can say whatever she wants, but at the end of the day, the facts speak for themselves.

Speaker 48 And I'll tell you, this is the hottest story in the world right now, Maria, for the very reason that people get it.

Speaker 48 You can't go and fraudulently represent things that aren't true in order to procure a loan.

Speaker 48 And the elites and the wealthy class, this is why President Trump wanted a landslide, because the people are sick and tired of this crap.

Speaker 22 Midas Touch got a great shout out from Congressmember Robert Garcia last night at his swearing in by former Vice President Kamala Harris.

Speaker 15 He's now the ranking member of the Intelligence Committee. Let's play this.

Speaker 48 And so I'm happy to be here and I'm happy to welcome all of you as friends.

Speaker 48 We also have, believe it or not, this is being right now streamed live by Midas Touch to their 5 million subscribers, which are over here. If you guys don't know Midas Touch, hey guys,

Speaker 48 thanks for all that they do. And I'm really grateful to them for continuing to particularly cover things that sometimes the mainstream media may not cover.
And so thank you to those partners.

Speaker 10 And after this video, Michael Popok's going to do a hot take on the ruling by the New York Appeals Court, which the headline is New York Appeals Court throws out $500 million civil judgment against Donald Trump.

Speaker 50 The sharply divided panel's decision paves the way for further proceedings before the state's highest court.

Speaker 31 It's It's a very confusing headline.

Speaker 32 When you read the opinion, it was a five-court panel at the appeals level in the case where Donald Trump inflated and deflated assets.

Speaker 17 They didn't find that the underlying theory of fraud was wrong.

Speaker 11 They said that the judgment was excessive, but there's multiple different rulings on it. So there was actually no definitive ruling.

Speaker 13 It goes to the highest court now in New York to actually make the final ruling about the judgment.

Speaker 50 It'll go to the

Speaker 13 New York Court of Appeals, which is their highest court.

Speaker 11 So there was

Speaker 22 some, I think, misinformation about the ruling that said that Donald Trump was innocent.

Speaker 50 It did not say that.

Speaker 11 It just said that

Speaker 11 the amount was excessive, and now it's up to the Court of Appeals to decide the right amount or no amount at all.

Speaker 50 But that's what that ruling was.

Speaker 11 But we'll do a more fulsome hot take here so you get the accurate data. Hit subscribe.
Let's get to 6 million subscribers. Thanks for watching.
