Kids. They grow up so fast. One day they're taking their first steps and the next they don't fit into the tiny sneakers they took them in. You blink your eyes and their princess dress is two sizes too small. And their dinosaur backpack isn't cool anymore. But don't cry because they're growing up. Smile because you can profit off of it for real. There are a bunch of parents on depop looking for the stuff your kid just grew out of. Download depop to start selling.

Trump regime is collapsing and crashing. So let's just talk about what state regime is doing. They've got one of their chief propagandist Jesse Waters attacking California governor Gavin Newsom for I don't even you tell me what they're even talking about Here you're play this clip.
- [02:59]
B
Have you ever seen a man sit like Gavin Newsom?
- [03:04]
A
Weak, dainty men that have weak policies that create disasters of states. Yes. That is such a pathetic pose, Jesse. I do not see boss men, especially not President Trump, sit like that.
- [03:16]
B
Yeah.
- [03:17]
C
And before I share one more clips of state regime media utterly collapsing. Just a reminder, subscribe to the Midas Touch YouTube channel. We're on our way to 6 million subscribers and you've seen state regime media attack me, attack our network. Trump's attacked us this week. We're leading independent media. We need more independent media voices. So please, if you can hit subscribe. You may think you're subscribed, but you may not actually be subscribed. All right, let's get back into it. Then you have Laura Ingraham, another Fox propagandist, and she's like, as a Kennedy board member, I can tell you that I enjoy Donald Trump having fun and having the head of FIFA give him a fake peace prize award. How great is it that he got fake peace prize medals? Here, play this clip.
- [04:01]
A
Now, as a Kennedy center board member, I was really happy not only to.
- [04:05]
B
See the president having fun and being celebrated, he was honored actually with the.
- [04:11]
A
First FIFA Peace Award.
- [04:13]
B
And they had this lead up video which was incredibly well produced. And even I had forgotten how many wars, how many conflicts Donald Trump has helped end. And I've decided, by the way, as.
- [04:24]
A
A side note, that FIFA's president, Giannini.
- [04:27]
B
Infantino, is my new favorite human.
- [04:29]
C
And y' all know what happened, right? So Donald Trump and the head of FIFA created a FIFA, like the soccer, the soccer league, a FIFA Peace Medal. And they awarded it to Donald Trump and he, like, wore it and started dancing and, like, threw himself a party. What? While the head of FIFA was like, donald, you earned this FIFA medal. Why is, I mean, FIFA, soccer, or if you're in Europe or elsewhere, football, why are you giving peace medals? Like, what's even going on here? Anyway, back to Jesse Waters, another Fox propagandist. And he says, you know, God gave us Covid so that Trump could be removed from office and then come back and party and hold sports events and party in the Octagon. These people are so deeply unserious. Here, play this clip.
- [05:18]
B
But it is, you know, it's like you get the UFC at the White House, you get the Olympics in Los Angeles, and now you get the World Cup. It's almost like God gave us Covid to kick Trump out so he could reemerge again and oversee this wonderful four years of birthday parties, international sporting events, and octagon. It's.
- [05:41]
If you doubted there was a God.
- [05:45]
This is evidence. There is God. Okay, Julian, non believer.
- [05:52]
C
And then Jesse Waters, and he's saying this on Fox too, which settled the case for basically a billion dollar defamation case for lying about the 2020 election. And Jesse Waters was like, who knows, maybe with the fact that this pipe bomber is a TR Trump supporter and has been spreading Trump conspiracies, maybe we'll find out that the 2020 election was actually stolen. Here, play this clip.
- [06:15]
B
All this stuff would have just been buried. We might find out the election was stolen. That was, that was not in the prompter. No, I said stolen.
- [06:26]
A
All right.
- [06:26]
B
A election. That's how Crockett does it. Right?
- [06:29]
A
Time's up.
- [06:30]
C
And again, spreading election denialism. You do you see the nihilism on Fox? I mean, this is so ridiculous. And then Jesse Waters says, you know, the deep state is still spinning this. They're saying that this guy said that the election was stolen. He did. The, the pipe bomber guy, the suspect was a Trumper. It was a conspiracy theorist guy who said that the election was stolen. He was parroting what Trump says. And it also seemed that he was someone with, he was potentially a person with disabilities who was just parodying Donald Trump's craz. And then Jesse Ward's like, actually, I don't even know what I'm talking about here. Here, play this clip.
- [07:10]
B
So the deep state's still spinning. They're out there saying, well, you know, this guy said that the election was stolen. Really? So they're saying that the Biden FBI covered up for this guy. Really? It also doesn't make sense because the guy started building the bomb materials in 2019. That was long before the election was stolen, quote, unquote. I don't know anything about this case. I haven't been following this case, but I will tell you this. Is the guy a lefty? His dad played the race card when he sued the Trump administration, by the way.
- [07:49]
C
Then a Fox panelist had to admit that there was a lot of small business bankruptcies. Here, play this clip.
- [07:55]
B
We need to acknowledge that high interest rates and tariffs have affected small businesses hard. Stop. We need to acknowledge that. We also need to acknowledge that this subchapter five is an easy, quick, less.
- [08:08]
C
Expensive, keep ownership of your entire business.
- [08:11]
B
Flush the toilet and move on process.
- [08:14]
C
And typically, when a company files bankruptcy.
- [08:16]
B
Its creditors end up owning the business. In a subchapter 5, the Small Businesses keep ownership. So There is trouble in small business land around high interest rates and tariffs. That's a fact. And when those small businesses are dealing.
- [08:30]
C
With higher prices, elasticity is an issue for consumers.
- [08:34]
B
They go other places.
- [08:35]
C
So then you had this other panel on the Five, and then Capano, one of the Fox hosts, said, you know, they specifically talked about how this Trump administration had to deal with all of Biden's problems. And that's why it's taken us really long in order for Trump to pursue his agenda, because it's Biden's fault. To which the one, I guess, pro democracy voice. There may have been two people on this panel, but one of the more normal people on this panel is like, are you just gonna blame things on Biden forever? Like, should I blame things on George Washington? Here, play this clip to hear us give answers to.
- [09:12]
B
We've got a fighting chance to win. So I agree with Stephen A.
- [09:15]
A
But we did in the 9th cabinet. Not we. The 9th cabinet meeting that was just held. That was televised. They talked about that.
- [09:20]
B
You mean President Trump.
- [09:21]
A
Yes. That's why I take back. We. I wasn't there. I was there in spirit. But the cabinet members talked about specifically that they were the ones. They said combating what the prior administration had done to them, what we inherited, that it's gonna take a while to.
- [09:33]
B
Like, build up, cutting into fan mail. If I'm ever elected president, I will not blame George Washington for anything. You can't keep blaming everybody for. You gotta. You gotta.
- [09:42]
A
Usually we're almost a year in, like, how long?
- [09:45]
B
Doggone George Washington, guys.
- [09:46]
C
And then Greg Gutfeld is saying that he goes, I'm really glad that Donald Trump won the. The FIFA Peace Prize because it didn't go to Greta Thunberg. And then one of the other people on the panel's like, but the award was created for Trump. He wasn't competing against other people to get the award. He and the head of FIFA made a fake award for Donald Trump. Anyway, here, play this clip.
- [10:11]
B
It's what we call Win Win. And I also love that the Peace prize from FIFA, it didn't go to, like, Greta Thunberg or some silly little.
- [10:19]
A
Peace guy, because it was created for the president.
- [10:22]
B
That's what you got. What's your beef with this thing? There were no problem. So it wasn't like, what's the. What's your point? Do you wish that it went to Amnesty International or to Greenpeace?
- [10:35]
A
I don't understand why FIFA needs a federation.
- [10:37]
B
Well, I'll tell you why. Because they're Kissing his butt.
- [10:40]
C
Yes.
- [10:40]
B
He's hosting the game.
- [10:42]
A
Right.
- [10:43]
B
By the way, who. Let me ask you this. Who deserves a peace prize?
- [10:47]
A
No, you're deserves a peace prize. I'm getting into this with you.
- [10:49]
B
No, you. You started it with me. This is not about three conversations here. We got a conversation I want. Look, he is going around the world basically brokering peace. Why shouldn't he get a peace prize? Not that I really care, but I.
- [11:02]
A
Didn'T say he didn't deserve it. I said it's not.
- [11:05]
B
Why do you hate President Trump?
- [11:06]
A
Get the Nobel Peace Prize. That was my point.
- [11:10]
C

You know things are bad when they bring on Trump's national economic adviser, Kevin Hassett, who goes, Donald Trump is the greatest communicator I've ever seen. Here, play this clip.
- [12:37]
B
Well, I mean, there have been so many wins to talk about that. I think it's just going to be a great time. He's the best communicator I've ever seen. It's going to be a great time for him to go out there and just talk about, like we could say one thing that we've got 18 trillion in new factories being built, but now we've actually got the groundbreaking that we could report on. And so I think that people are going to be really impressed with the progress that we're making and it's going to be very, very impressive data as well. And so I think that because the President is on fast forward and he's solving, it seems, all the world's problems, you know, stopping wars and everything else, that it's time now to spend a little bit of time, remember, reminding people about all the progress we made out the economy and that's what he's going to do.
- [13:16]
C
And then Hasid says, but you know, we thought we were going to be doing better this year, but the government shutdown got us here. Play this clip.
- [13:24]
B
The thing is that the data are missing a little bit, right? Because of the government shutdown, we went a couple of months without the kind of data that policymakers in the White House and policymakers at the Fed want to see to make sure that they've got a real strong hand handle on what's going on. We've seen some anecdotal reports like through the ADP releases that the job market might be weakening. At the same time, industrial production's at an all time high. We've got GDP growth in the fours for the last two quarters. And so, you know, our expectation is that the government shutdown had a bigger negative effect on the economy than we expected. But we're going to have a bigger rebound in the first quarter. Against that backdrop, it's a good time for the Fed to cautiously reduce rates again. And that's what I expect that they're going to do.
- [14:09]
C
And then Hassett says but we'll deal with affordability, but we may have to deal with that in a little bit. But it's all Biden's fault. You're playing this clip under Joe Biden.
- [14:20]
B
As we're making progress, but it's going to take a little bit more time to get the hole that Biden dug to be completely filled. But we're going to do it. We're highly confident we're going to do it. The numbers that you and I have been talking about this morning highlight why people should be so optimistic that we'll be successful.
- [14:35]
C
Then they bring on this Department of homeland security person, McLaughlin, and she's like, and one of the lies coming from the radicals is that we're zip tying children. We're not zip tying children. We see you zip tying the children. How many videos have I showed a People zip tying children, throwing chemical weapons by schools, disappearing people into concentration camps, taking out your assault weapons and pointing in people's faces, invading child care centers like I've shown them all on, on this network. People have seen all these videos. Go back, look at my All Hell Breaks Loose series. All this stuff is on tape here. Play this clip.
- [15:21]
A
And there's of course, even Christmas not being safe from anti immigration protests. There was a church in Evanston, Illinois, facing heat this morning for displaying a nativity scene showing baby Jesus zip tied by ICE agents. The church says this installation reimagines the nativity as a scene of forced family separation, drawing direct parallels between the Holy family's refugee experience and contemporary immigration detention practices. Trisha, children are not being zip tied. This is again, another disgusting smear. I just. Maria, when does this stop? We've already seen a terrorist attack against our law enforcement officers. We've seen multiple, multiple vehicle rammings, probably a thousand this year. And we talked about the assaults against them earlier. But I really think it's incumbent upon these politicians give the facts here because these illegal aliens in our country actually have a real choice. They have a choice to leave the country now, get $1,000 exit bonus, a free flight home, and then preserve the potential opportunity to come back to the United States the right legal way. That is incredibly generous taxpayer offer and they should take advantage of it.
- [16:31]
C
Then they bring on this maga Republican Congress member Rick Crawford. He's an Arkansas Congress member and he defends Pete Hegseth's strikes on the demolished.
- [16:44]
The war crimes that were taking place. And he goes, hegseth had to do this because they were potentially signaling other vessels in the region. No, they weren't. We know what's happened. Admiral Mitch Bradley has spoken about this. The people were in distress, the survivors. The ship that they were on, the fishing boat was heading to was going east, okay? Not in the direction of the United States. It was going in the opposite direction. It was apparently going to meet with a bigger boat where potentially the drugs, if there were drugs, cocaine, was going to be transferred to a bigger boat, not in the direction of the United States. It wasn't fentanyl and they were not radioing anybody. And they were in distress. We know all of those facts now to be the case. But, but go on, Crawford, lie here, play this clip.
- [17:38]
B
We're dealing with a vile element here. And they were as, as my friend Senator Cotton characterized, they were trying to right that ship. It was still laden with cargo because it was strapped into the boat. They were potentially signaling other vessels in the region. We don't know if they had access to Satcoms or not. But as he characterized still in the fight, and this is characteristic of these kind of strikes where we hear the term double tap.
- [18:09]
C
But folks, MAGA Mike Johnson wants you to know that the Republicans have had the most productive, the most productive Congress in history is what he says. Come on here, play this clip.
- [18:20]
B
If we stay unified, there is absolutely nothing that we can't achieve. And we've already demonstrated that this Congress, we've had one of the most productive Congresses in the history of the institution. Do you need the President to get on the phone to some reluctant GOP members in the House and say, come on, come on. He's been very helpful at a couple of junctures along the way where we've had big legislation, the one big beautiful bill, the working families tax cut. Other things where you had two or three or four holdouts, which I can't afford now. Remember in previous years, speakers had 25, 30, 40 seat majorities. I have a razor thin majority. I have to get every single Republican on most days. And so it takes a lot of work. But we're gonna get there.
