MAJOR Friday Message from Meidas Founder

MeidasTouch Network Mar 21

By Ben Meiselas

Hey MeidasMighty. I’ll keep this short. I am happy to announce that the MeidasTouch Network hit 6 BILLION VIEWS yesterday on YouTube. We are averaging 3 billion views per year now. This is a major milestone in the growth of our independent network. Thanks to all our subscribers on our Substack for helping us grow. Please subscribe now if you aren’t yet a subscriber.

This week we interviewed Governor Beshear, Governor Moore, Governor Pritzker, and Senator Bernie Sanders. We also interviewed numerous members of Congress. Our interviews have made major headlines and have consistently led the news cycle. The MeidasTouch Network has become the most viewed digital channel (more than Fox, CNN, and MSNBC) and the most downloaded podcast, with double the monthly downloads of Joe Rogan.

As you know—and I won’t rehash it further—the MAGAs hit us with more death threats this week. They tried to scare us and get us to shut down. As always, that didn’t work, and we’ve only grown more. Thanks for having our back.

Thousands of our subscribers got a behind-the-scenes tour of the recording studios used by Brett and me during our Substack Live yesterday. I shared my book collection, awards, and memorabilia and showed what my full studio looks like. As a reminder, subscribe now to get access to these features.

We continue to expand our coverage in Canada.

We produced a compelling exposé on how the Canadian Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre is trying to pretend he hasn’t been Donald Trump and MAGA’s biggest fanboy for years. Poilievre is Maple MAGA—his team literally wore MAGA hats, did the MAGA podcast circuit, sucked up to Elon Musk, and used all the MAGA rhetoric. The MeidasTouch Podcast is the most downloaded podcast in Canada.

Are you reading all of Ron Filipkowski’s daily bulletins on our Substack? Filipkowski is our Editor-in-Chief and is the most brilliant mind in political media today, in my opinion. His daily bulletins posted on this Substack are brilliant.

Thanks to all of our subscribers, we’ve fought back against the Trump regime. We’ve built the top editorial and digital team in news today, and our reach is now bigger than all corporate news networks. This is something you should be proud of—because this is what you built. We never forget what makes this network work. It’s you, the MeidasMighty.

It is imperative we grow bigger. We can’t get complacent. We need your help. Spread the word about the MeidasTouch Network to people you know today. Tell them to watch our YouTube and read this Substack.

If you aren’t a subscriber to this Substack, we would love to have you subscribe now. With your help, we can go from 6 billion views to 10 billion views. We can go from 4.5 million subscribers to 10 million subscribers. We can go from 350 million monthly views on YouTube to 1 billion views a month. That’s our goal. This is how we will change the hearts and minds of Americans and people throughout the world.

Congrats on 6 billion views!!!
