Trump having a complete and utter meltdown on New Year's. This guy is unwell. He's posting about George Clooney and Clooney's wife Amal. Donald Trump saying I hope my enemies rot in hell. He's saying rotten hell to the governor of Colorado into a rhino. I want to see you all rotten hell. Donald Trump is posting photos of windmills and saying that they're actually killing these bald eagles. But it's A photo of 2017 Israel Windmills and their falcons and not bald eagle keeps on reposting these things. And then he just let me just go through them with you. It's utterly absurd. Oh by the way, he admits defeat. He admits that he's surrendering as well and removing the National Guard from California and from Illinois and from Oregon as well. And he's like but the Democrats are a bunch of cheats. Guys ranting and raving like a ludic. How about you just say Happy New Year's. Alright, how about post a photo of your family? Or maybe you just don't post anything at all. And dozy Don, why don't you doze? Back off. But here's what he's post. Let me read it for you. Donald Trump says that we're removing the National Guard from Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland despite the fact that crime has been greatly reduced by having these great patriots in those cities. And only by that fact that making that up, Portland, Los Angeles and Chicago were gone if it weren't for the federal government stepping in. We will come back perhaps in a much different and stronger form when crime begins to soar again. Only a question of time. It is hard to believe that these Democrat mayors and governors, all of whom are greatly incompetent, would want us to leave. Especially considering the great progress that has been made. Question mark, question mark, question mark. President DJT this guy is deeply unwell in the head, in his body. A psychotic. Just some psychotic meltdown. I don't know. You give me other words to describe what we're watching right now. By the way, Hit subscribe help the Midas Touch network get to 6 million subscribers in 2026.

Just double check that you're actually subscribed and turn your notifications on. Donald Trump go. Democrats are a bunch of cheaters and thieves and they never want to do what's good for America. That's what you're posting on fricking New Year's. Donald Trump goes. Good news. George and Amal Clooney, two of the worst political prognosticators of all time, have officially become citizens of France, which is sadly in the midst of a major crime problem because of their horrendous handling of immigration, much like we had under sleepy Joe Biden. Remember when Clooney, after the now infamous debate, dumped Joe during a fundraiser only to go onto the side of another stellar candidate, Jamala K. Who is now fighting it out with the worst governor in the country, including Tim Waltz, Gavin Newscomb for who is going to lead the Democrats for their future of defeat. I mean again, this is what the guy's posting on New Year's. This is why he is a deranged individual. Also yesterday it was reported New York Times report although they might as touch reported at first back on December 23rd, 5 million additional Epstein files are missing that the DOJ says it's now found. Not the 1.2 million. Remember when I told you there was 1.2 million but I said there were likely 5 million to 10 million more? Spot on with the numbers and the way I knew that is cuz I've dealt with document productions like this before. The bank records alone could be a million records. You have to go through it with a fine toothed comb because there are, you know, millions of transactions. I mean Epstein was engaged in potentially a $1.2 billion money laundering scheme running adjacent or parallel or inextricably intertwined with the child sex trafficking ring that Trump and his regime and the magazine are now covering up. Democrats in the House Oversight Committee posted the Department of Justice has produced less than 5% of Epstein documents. What is the President hiding and why was Mar A La used to send spa employees to Epstein's personal home? This is ranking member Garcia's full statement. It's now clear the Department of Justice has produced less than 5% of the 5 million Epstein documents it has in its possession. This is a blatant violation of federal law and part of a criminal White House cover up. The American people now understand Trump and Attorney General Bondi never intended to release these files until Congress forced them to act. At the same time, new reporting raises serious questions about Trump, Trump's relationship with Epstein and what Trump knew about Mar A Lago's role in directing its employees to Epstein's home for so called house calls. Oversight. Democrats have already begun to investigate these disturbing revelations. And what the Wall Street Journal reported was that in 2003, Epstein was banned allegedly from the Mar A Lago spa. Not from Mar A Lago, from the spa because the father of a purported 18 year old girl was threatening Donald Trump and Mar A Lago with potentially legal action and to go public. So Epstein was just banned from the spot. But that was irrelevant because Epstein wasn't going to the spa. The girls were going to Epstein's home throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s until about 2007, it seems, when Epstein was last seen on the Mar A Lago house logs. Trump and or at least the Mar A Lago spa, at least not in the 90s. They were sending girls to Epstein. Epstein wasn't even a member, but Trump directed people treat him as though he's a member. And they would send the girls and spa workers and masseuses to Epstein's. And there was a reputation that Epstein would sexually harass and sexually assault them. It was described in the Wall Street Journal as engaging sexually suggestive conduct. What do you mean? He was, he was sexually assaulting them and he was going, he was, he was exposing himself and harassing them. That was the reputation of what was taking place. And they were sending the girls from Mar A Lago there. That's what was going down. That's what was. And that's what the Wall Street Journal reported. It was also being reported as well that when Trump had Zelinsky in the Oval Office after Trump rolled out the red carpet for Vladimir Putin and made the American military beg like dogs on their KN or go on their knees like dogs for Putin in an image that will forever live in infamy in American history and that Putin will show his propaganda and Russians will show his propaganda for ages. Zelensky and the European show up to the Oval Office and Trump just wanted to talk about how beautiful Ukrainian women are and how pretty Ukrainian women are and how his friend Phil Ruffin, who he who built the Trump Tower in Las Vegas, married a beautiful Ukrainian Miss Ukraine from 2004. And then so Trump puts Zelensky on the phone with Ms. Ukraine and Zelensky's like, yeah, I know Ukrainian women are beautiful. I married A Ukrainian woman. But then Zelensky brilliantly turned the tables of Donald Trump in the Oval Office. When he spoke to Ms. Ukraine 2004, she was on speakerphone because Trump was trying to be like, gross. And Ukrainian women are so beautiful and this, that, and so pretty. How. How attractive are they? You know, that was. Trump was doing that. And then Zelinsky asked her, so do your parents still live there? And she said, yes. Where? Odessa. Got it. So they didn't move during the war, that Russia's invasion? They're staying there? No. Why they stay there. This is their homeland. They love it. And they know that if they leave and they give up on Ukraine, they'll be giving up on their homeland. And it was an important moment where Zelinsky used Trump's creepiness and turned the tables on him during that phone call, where Trump's like, by the way, here's a photo of Phil Ruffin, and here is Ms. Ukraine, Alexandra 2004. And it ended up being a big moment for Zelensky to put pressure on Donald Trump. Let me just share with you. As Trump goes into 2026, let's just talk about the data about how deeply unpopular Donald Trump is. This is from Harry Enton right here. Let's just play this clip right here.

Hey, man. Who? Look, 2025 was not exactly the best year for the President of the United States. He started off in pretty gosh darn good territory, right? Trump's net approval rating. In January, he was six points above water, pretty much above where he was during his entire first term in office. But look what happens come December. 12 points underwater, way, way down there. That is an 18 point decline during the course of the year. Now, what has driven Donald Trump's decline in his net approval rating? Well, its independence. That is the name of the game, baby. Look, in January, Donald Trump's net approval rating among independents was about even, minus one point. Not too hot to trap, but not too bad either. Now, we're talking about 43 points underwater come December. That is a decline of 42 points on his net approval rating. Donald Trump is hanging out with Jacques Cousteau. That is how far underwater Donald Trump is with independence at this point. Now, what issues are driving this decline in Trump's approval rating? His net approval rating? Well, let's look at two of the key issues, right? The economy. The reason that Donald Trump was elected to a second term. Back in January, he was in pretty good shape at plus nine points on the net approval rating. But look, come December, 16 points underwater. That is a decline, doing the math quickly here, of 25 points for Donald Trump on the key issue of the day, the economy, the reason he got a second term. And then of course, immigration, which Donald Trump has really focused in on during his second term in office. Something he has been focusing on since he first ran for the presidency all the way back in 2015. Well, in January he was nine points above water on the issue. Now he's six points below water on the issue. So on the key issues of the economy, inflation going in the wrong direction for Donald Trump.

Yeah, that's how deeply unpopular he is. We've been doing a lot of coverage of special counsel Jack Smith's eight hour deposition which was released, as you know, Midas was the first to publish it. In terms of media companies. The full eight hour deposition we posted on our YouTube channel. I'm sure many of you watched it. Watch, watch the full eight hours. You'll have to watch it in parts, but it's very compelling. It's why we wanted to post the full eight hours. But what I found was notable was before Jack Smith testified, Jack Smith and his lawyer received a email from Pambandi from the Department of Justice saying that we will not allow you to speak about the Mar A Lago case because Judge Cannon, you know, Trump's stooge judge, Judge Cannon, she's refused to release volume two of Jack Smith's report. And because that's still under seal, the DOJ is taking the position, you see what they're doing with Judge Cannon right there, right. That you can talk about a Jack Smith. So, so what they want to do is send their magazine to go on state regime media, which calls itself Fox, and to say, oh, Jack Smith did this wrong, Jack Smith did that wrong. And Jack Smith's like, can I talk about this? Because let me tell you the overwhelming evidence that I have about the Mar A Lago case where Trump stole classified information. I want to speak about all of what we did. But the DOJ saying, nope, we will prosecute you if you tell the truth. We will go after if you tell the truth. And Jack Smith's like, hey, doj, maybe you want to send a lawyer to be here with me? So to make sure that you know everything I'm saying you're good with. DOJ doesn't send a lawyer either. Doesn't it tell you everything that they just keep covering up all of the truth and they thought that deposition was never going to get out. Midas Dutch network. It's going to get millions of views here on the Midas Dutch network. Thanks to all of you. That's how we get the word out. The game's changed.
