Important Sunday Message from MeidasTouch Founder


By Ben Meiselas

Hey MeidasMighty. It’s Ben Meiselas, co-founder of MeidasTouch. I am sorry I am sending this later than usual and didn’t get to grab coffee with you this morning. My wife and I booked a trip with our baby Ximena to Disneyland in Anaheim. It’s been raining here, but we got up early and got to bring Ximena on most of the kid rides before the rain came down bad. We brought her to the character lunch and now are going to It’s a Small World since the rain stopped. If you’ve been wondering what that new background was today on my videos, it’s the business center at the California Adventure Hotel.

Sorry if I’m oversharing. And sorry for missing our morning coffee. Let me give you some of my thoughts quickly about the United States invasion of Venezuela. First, it’s patently unlawful. The MeidasTouch Network was the first news network to go live with footage of the United States attack on Venezuela. We brought you video and photos that other networks were struggling to keep up with. From the outset, Meidas didn’t mince words during coverage. We called out the unlawful invasion for what it was. We made clear to report with the moral clarity you expect.

Second, we’ve brought you exclusive interviews and videos with political leaders regarding the invasion. My interview with veteran and Democratic Congressman Pat Ryan has been viewed over 1.5 million times. Ryan condemned the invasion and gave the perspective of a combat veteran who has lost close friends in war.

Third, it is important our coverage emphasized that Trump has not been looking to promote democracy in Venezuela. Instead, Trump wants to seize the oil, and he’s been working with others in Maduro’s regime to keep the ruling party in power while attacking the opposition leader María Machado. Machado gave all the MAGA talking points for Donald and said how the 2020 election was stolen, and in return Donald said she didn’t have the respect of the Venezuelan people.

We also brought you the perspective from Canada with our great host and the leader of MeidasCanada, Charlie Angus. Charlie explained how the people in Canada recognize that Donald’s pronouncement of a “DONROE DOCTRINE” means Trump’s goal has always been to control and “run” Canada, Greenland, Mexico, and the entire Western Hemisphere.

For the past year, you’ve heard me talk about “spheres of influence,” and how the Trump regime sees the world divided into “three spheres.” They see the United States controlling all of the Western Hemisphere, Russia controlling all of Europe, and China controlling all of Asia, with these powers divvying up the oil and rare earth elements in other parts of the world, like Africa.

Ultimately, Trump’s imperial adventurism is despised by the American people. Trump promised lower prices and no wars, and he’s caused inflation to surge, is responsible for wars across the globe, and has destroyed the post–World War global order.

Trump has started 2026 giving the middle finger to the American people and showing that he is a virus and a plague on the entire world. If Trump thinks he’s going to intimidate the American people and people across the globe, he’s mistaken. The MeidasTouch Network is not afraid. We will continue our fearless reporting in 2026. We have a big announcement tomorrow regarding a DC bureau we are building out as we expand our presence on Capitol Hill to bring you breaking news coverage from Washington. Our DC bureau is made possible thanks to your subscriptions. Stay tuned for more announcements.

Make sure you subscribe to this Substack. MeidasTouch needs your help more than ever in 2026 to continue to expand our resources and presence across the globe. Your subscriptions have been the biggest driver of our growth, so please become a paid subscriber if you can. Thanks for all you do.

I’ve included a photo from Disneyland. I have to get back to my little one now.

Petro-Politics: How Campaign Cash Fueled Trump’s Invasion of Venezuela


Corporations Invested In Lawsuits Before Venezuela Invasion Trump’s removal of President Nicolás Maduro could tilt court proceedings and provide a windfall to corporate plaintiffs like Haliburton, Williams Company and Elliot Investment Management — who all donated to Trump. A U.S.-backed Venezuelan government could settle those cases or fail to adequately argue their side in court, using Venezuela’s resources to award companies with hundreds of millions in damages. — Lever News TRUMP’S BAG MAN SEIZES COMPANY THAT BID $10B FOR VENEZUELAN OIL Devin Nunes and others linked to Trump Media became officers of a company soon after it made an unsuccessful $10 billion bid for Venezuelan-state-owned Citgo Petroleum’s U.S. assets -Wendy Siegelman - Devin Nunes and Trump Media executives took control of Blue Water Acquisition Corp III in November 2025—weeks after the company bid $10 billion for CITGO, Venezuela’s state-owned oil giant. - “They’re not fighting terrorism. They’re stealing oil.” “Nunes is Trump Media CEO and Trump’s bag man.” The Venezuela war isn’t about drugs. It’s about seizing $10 billion in petroleum assets. And Nunes got positioned before the bombing started. — Narativ Follow the money Read Wendy Siegelman’s report

Billionaires call the shots (pun intended) Singer donated $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund. Amber is part of Elliott Investment Management, a firm founded by hedge-fund billionaire Paul Singer November 25, 2025 U.S. Judge Stark approved the acquisition of Citgo parent PDV Holding, Inc. by Amber Energy for $5.9 billion. However, Gold Reserve is challenging the decision. — Wendy Sieglman on NewsTRACS Hedge fund magnate Paul Singer is known for his high-profile, and often combative, dealmaking. He founded his hedge fund firm, Elliott Management, which now has some $73 billion in assets under management. He famously spent 15 years warring with the government of Argentina over bond payments, which resulted in a $2.4 billion payout to his firm in 2016. Singer frequently donates to Jewish and pro-Israel causes, including BBYO and Hillel. He’s given roughly $300 million to his foundation since 2010. — Forbes Follow the money TakeAway: Call your rep. #NoBloodForOil

Is “cocaine trafficking” and “machine gun trafficking” just a pretext to the recently “cognitively tested” Trump taking over Venezuela’s oil reserves and its formerly American oil company, Citgo? How do you square Trump pardoning Honduras’ president from a 45 year coke trafficking sentence for moving the most coke in the western hemisphere, with claiming regime change was necessary in Venezuela because of the cocaine trade? Popok looks closely at the Largest oil reserves in the world that are located in Venezuela, and the connections between Trump’s inner circle, Russia and Citgo. And who trusts the Trump Regime to have done the planning to lead to democracy being installed in Venezuela? Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!
