We're an equal branch of government and you start off with a blather. And yet look at the empty seats here. Where's Elon Musk? I'm sure he's a genius and is a very credible person because of the wealth he's accumulated, but that does not put him above the law or the responsibility to come before this committee in this Congress. If he's so great, if these plans and all the fraud and abuse that he's found are so eminent, why isn't he here explaining it? You know why? Because he's out to privatize Social Security. He's been on television the last couple of days talking exactly about Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid and what he intends to do. Privatize it. The American people, some of them may have been born at night, but not last night. That's how you fight. Democratic Congressmember John Larson saying, where the hell is Elon Musk? Oh, wait a minute. We know why he's not here submitting to oversight by Congress. We know why you MAGA Republicans are refusing to do your job. It's because y'all want to get rid of Social Security. That's what Elon Musk has been talking about as he's talked about privatizing Social Security or saying that the whole thing is a Ponzi scheme. Let's highlight some Democrats fighting back, like Democratic Congressmember John Larson, shall we? Here's Bernie Sanders at a recent event that he held. And again, he's listening to the people. He's relating to what the people are saying and the suffering that they're experiencing now being caused by the Trump regime. Let's play it. Thank you. Well, thank you all. Thank you. Thank you all. No, no, no, no, no, it is not, Bernie. If there is ever a time in American history where it's not one person, but millions of people, this is that time. Next clip I want to share with you is Governor Tim Walls of Minnesota did a great job on this interview. I'm liking this Governor Walls, and I just think he either held himself back or he was held back during the campaign. This is the guy that made me really excited when I was when I found out that he would be picked to be the VP pick with Vice President Kamala Harris. Here's what he says. Let's play it. I hope that you' I think your viewers know this is there's no plan behind this. Donald Trump doesn't know how anything works. Donald Trump is this caricature that had a reality TV show that pretended like he knew how to run businesses. The reality is he doesn't. As a governor, we have to make these things work. Local school districts have to understand what are the impacts going to be when you lay off 1300 experts who are there to make sure that every one of our children get an equitable education. And so it's chaos. Now, take what I just showed you and contrast it to what MAGA Mike Johnson was saying yesterday. MAGA Mike Johnson was saying, look, Elon, he's so smart. He's got the biggest platform in the world. You know, sometimes he says things that are misunderstood and it causes big problems. I don't know, like when he got rid of people at the nuclear power plants or nuclear weapons, or when he said that he fired the people who study Ebola or watch what MAGA Mike says. I think of it metaphorically. I get up every morning and I have this giant sort of control panel, and it's got 219 dials on it And I gotta make sure everybody's, you know, okay, this one's, oh, you know, and then I got the President Trump dial and now I have, now I have the Elon dial, okay? Because Elon has the largest platform in the world, literally. And if he goes on and says something that's misunderstood or misinterpreted about something we're doing, he can blow the whole thing up. So I spent a lot of time working with all these dials and all these folks and I just run around all day and make sure everybody's happy. So utterly pathetic. Let's go back to Governor Walz. Here's what he goes, he goes, look, Trump's the guy who's declared bankruptcy over and over again. Who declares bankruptcy more than Trump? This is a guy who doesn't pay his bills. Play this clip. And he negotiated the damn trade deal with them. If trade is so bad with Canada, he was the guy who signed the deal. It defies law. But look, I think this is how he ran business. He stiffed contractors, he stiffed workers, he doesn't pay his bills, he declares bankruptcy. The one thing is his claim that he's the business president. He is the worst possible business executive that I have ever witnessed. And I hope you know this is what we need. I need the business community to speak up. The Wall Street Journal, thank you, thank you for saying this is the stupidest trade war because I've been saying it. And so now I can go back to my constituents, Republican constituents, and say this is the real of what you're facing. And boy, did Montana make a massive mistake when they chose the MAGA Republican guy Sheehy over, over John Tester who was a great senator here. The MAGA Republican senator from, Tim Sheehy from Montana says, look, this is what happens sometimes with the stock market. We were on a sugar high. You know, we'll see a correction here. And no one really likes good stock markets, right? We don't like that. We like crashing markets. That's how the magazines are trying to spin this, that crashing markets are good because we were on a sugar high and now we need to be punished by Daddy Trump and Daddy Elon. That's what these idiots are saying. Play this clip. We, we all love a good stock market, but the reality is that stock market imbalance didn't necessarily benefit the smaller mid sized companies and average shareholders across the country. It didn't necessarily benefit Main street that much. So I think we are going to see a correction there. You know, but the reality is the stock Market's not the economy, the economy is not the stock market. It's not uncommon for uncertainty to cause disruptions in that as they digest a new environmental, a new economic landscape. This episode of the Midas Touch podcast is brought to you by Graza.

M E I D A s no wonder Donald Trump's approval is plummeting. No wonder people are at these mags. MAGA Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville right here and his view of the markets crashing, people's retirements, being lost is no pain, no gain. He says no because when he was a coach in football. No pain, no gain. You deserve to feel the pain care of the Trump regime because that's the only way you're going to learn to be a better person. When they inflict suffering on you, that's what they are saying. Play this clip and Trump's tariffs. Making America great again. It's a great strategy if somebody's finally doing something out of the White House. President Trump, that is, that says you have to take an action in another country. Yeah, no pain, no gain. That's what we used to tell our football players. There's going to be some pain with Tariffs. But tariffs got us back as the strongest economy in the world when President Trump was in the first time. He knows what he's doing. Democrats get out of the way, shut up. You have no answers. You didn't do anything right in the last four years with Joe Biden. We have a game plan. Trump has a game plan along with Howard Ludnick and the other people that, that are pushing the tariffs. We can turn this thing around. But folks, let me tell you, this is our last chance. If we can't get it done now with tariffs and with putting and pulling regulations and getting people back to work and cutting our debt and cutting the amount of spending, we're not going to have the country that we've had before. So people need to just listen, learn from this, understand it's short term pain. We're going to get this turned around. President Trump knows exactly what he's doing and he has a game plan. Something Democrats didn't know anything. Now let me share with you, Democratic Congress member Negus. He came on the Midas Touch podcast. I interviewed him. Let's take a look. And he's on the Rules Committee and he's focuses on the subcommittee on legislation and the budget. Here's what he's got to say, that there will be mass collateral damage to the absurdities of the policies that they are pursuing. And so, you know, I think about average working family in my district that's struggling to be able to buy a new car because car prices are soaring through the roof, interest rates are still remarkably high. And what are they left with? They're left with, you know, the car infomercial that the president of the United States conducted earlier today on the White House lawn. That that is their policy prescription, right, is to engage in these reckless economic policies, the tariffs and the rest, unnecessary trade wars and, and ultimately offer nothing of actual consequence to the American people who are really struggling. And from my perspective, that's the most confounding part of all. House Democrats are going to remain focused. You know, as Leader Jeffries often says, keeping the main thing, the main thing, which is quality of life, cost of living, addressing core challenges that the American people face, that Republicans refuse to address and as I said, if anything, are exacerbating. I had Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries on. Here's what he had to say. We understand that people are anxious, scared, concerned, upset at the state of affairs as a result of the flooding of the zone and the unleashing of this extremism from the Trump administration and the failure of House Republicans or Senate Republicans to actually serve as a check and balance on an out of control executive branch. We hear you, we see you. But most importantly, we are committed to making life better for you. We're going to turn this national nightmare around and make sure we can bring the American dream to life for every single person in this great country. I had Ro Khanna on Democratic Congress member Khanna. Here's what he had to say. What gives me confidence is propaganda. Even if you have an information asymmetry doesn't work when the reality is terrible. And what Biden had was in many cases an economy that was recovering and we got hurt by propaganda. Now you actually have a terribly moving economy and people are hurting. And there's no amount of things that Sean Hannity can say that's going to pay the bills. There's no amount of things that Charlie Kirk can say that's going to pay the bills. And so, you know, you can't spin reality at a certain point. And that's what Republicans are waking up to. And our Gen Z superstar Adam Mockler had Democratic Senator Mark Kelly on. And here's what Senator Kelly had to say. Well, yeah, first of all, that was kind of a surprise to me. I, when I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, getting shot at on, you know, every, almost every time I went up on missions, I didn't expect that There was a 10 year old kid, you know, sitting in South Africa who one day was going to become the richest guy in the world and was going to call me a traitor for doing my job. I mean, I mean, who saw this coming. It was quite the surprise. I don't take him very seriously. You know, now he kind of acts like a 12 year old kid just, you know, hurling around insults. He supposedly has this big job in the Trump administration. He's just doing an incredible amount of damage to our institutions, to our workforce, but to the missions that this government needs to keep people safe, to keep our economy moving forward. He's doing significant damage. So I don't take the guy incredibly seriously. But at the same time I do worry significantly about the damage he's doing. I gotta mention this one, this one more video here. I had New York Attorney General Letitia James on the Midas Touch podcast. Here's what she had to say. So the list goes on and on and on. Whenever he issues an executive order, it's the blue wall of defense. The attorneys general all across this country who respond in in record time defending the rights of individuals, defending the rule of law and standing up for our democracy and for our freedom. We'll continue to do that even with their threats and even, you know, with all of their, you know, the fact that they throw everything against the wall and see what's going to stick, you know, attorneys general, we're prepared to respond in record time. And you know, there wouldn't be a Midas touch video if I didn't share with you. Democratic Congressmember Jim McGovern on the House floor speaking the truth right here. And one of the things he points out is in that bogus BS continuing resolution that the MAGAs have tried to push through, that will be a massive gain for the billionaires and screw over people on Medicaid, screw over veterans, screw over the Department of Education. He goes slipped in a clause letting them escape from ever having to debate or vote on Trump's tariffs. They gave full authority and they snuck it in. In a little tiny footnote here. Play this clip. Looks are really hoping, really, really hoping I don't bring up this last part. Guess what? They tucked into this rule hoping that nobody would notice. They did this after everyone went home. They slipped in a little clause letting them escape from ever having to debate or vote on Trump's tariffs. Isn't that clever? Trump's trade war will result in one of the largest, if not the largest, tax increase on American families ever. And this rule gives him the ability to do it without a vote in Congress. I get it. They're already hiding from their voters, running away from their own town halls, slipping out the back doors because they're afraid of being held accountable by their own actions. But guess what, Mr. Speaker, people don't send us here to hide. They send us here to fight for them and they send us here to vote. And Democrats are not going to be complicit in voting to screw over America's veterans. We are not going to be complicit in voting to screw over our senior citizens on Social Security. We're not going to be complicit in taking money away from first responders and we're sure as hell not going to be silent when it comes to this administration's BS and their corruption. Because what we are going to do is we're going to show up in our communities, we're going to stand up for veterans, we're going to speak up for people on Medicaid and Social Security and we're going to put up one hell of a fight when it comes to the middle class, to middle class families who are counting on us to fight for them. I urge a no vote on the disgraceful rule a no vote on the underlying legislation and I reserve the balance of my time. Gentlemen reserve. Wow. Powerful stuff. Let me know what you think. Good to see fight. Democrats need to be fighting like this now. Democrats need to go into those red districts and go into those purple districts where the maga Republicans are too scared to speak to their voters and Democrats need to speak to them because they're they're on Medicaid. They they have these programs that are being taken from them. They're veterans. They're on Social Security. Their pensions and 401ks are being destroyed by these MAGAs. So democrats go out and speak to them. Please hit subscribe. Let's get to 5 million subscribers. Thanks for watching. The truth is more important than ever.
