Reflections on Saturday Morning
This morning feels heavier than most.
I recently learned that Wendy Russell Mendelsohn passed away in December. Wendy was one of the very first ten people who believed in what would eventually become the MeidasTouch Network, back in 2020, before it was even a network at all, when it was just an idea, a few voices, and a conviction that speaking clearly and honestly still mattered.
Wendy was known to many of you as “Meidas Wendy.” She believed in the vision of MeidasTouch from the very beginning. Not because it was popular or established—it wasn’t—but because she believed in democracy, decency, and the responsibility to stand up when something is wrong.
That kind of early belief stays with you.
When you build something like the MeidasTouch Network, you don’t forget the people who were there before there was momentum, before there was validation, before there was safety in numbers. Wendy didn’t just follow—she believed. She believed this work mattered, that it was worth supporting, and that the fight ahead, however long and difficult, was worth engaging in.
Thinking about Wendy this morning brings a sober clarity. This work has never been abstract. It’s about real people who care deeply about the direction of this country and who choose to show up anyway—quietly, early, and without expectation of recognition. Wendy represented the very best of that spirit. We will miss her dearly.
The fight ahead is not easy. It demands seriousness, endurance, and resolve. Remembering Wendy is a reminder of why this exists in the first place and why it must continue.
If you believe in the mission of the MeidasTouch Network, and you want to help sustain this work as we move through what lies ahead, becoming a subscriber is one meaningful way to do that.
More than anything, thank you to everyone who has supported this effort—then and now—and who believes this fight is still worth fighting.
We are winning this fight now. We will win this fight in the future. We take our country back. We will never forget Wendy. She will always be in our hearts and in the spirit of this network.
