Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
have a very serious discussion about what took place last night at the White House Correspondents Dinner at the Hilton Hotel as it relates to Donald Trump's cognitive and physical health. I know there's a lot of discussion about place, but I want to just focus on what's on the video as it relates to Donald Trump's physical health. Now, you'll recall when the Secret Service tried to escort Donald Trump out of the room when this incident was taking place, Donald Trump couldn't walk straight. And the Secret Service was very jarred by the fact that Donald Trump can't really walk well. And so they told Donald Trump, hey, you got to get up, you got to get up. And then as Donald Trump is leaving, he falls flat. He almost like falls on his face. Right? We're going to show you what went down. And the Secret Service had to like pick him up and they had to basically drag him out of there. And I think they were just like, wow, this is now being caught on film finally. And you know, we've been talking about this and we've seen this before as well though. But let me just remind you what went down as Donald Trump literally just falls down, whether it's out of fear, whether it's that he walk straight. I want to show you this. Then I want to talk about seeing this. I want to talk about Butler, Pennsylvania, and I want to talk about how those medical records have never been released. And while we're at it, really no credible medical records from Donald Trump have ever been released at all. And this incident last night at the White House Correspondents Dinner, I think raises serious questions about all of this. And I'm not afraid to ask those questions here on the Midas Touch Network. And I know you're smart enough to look into it. So let's just watch Donald Trump fall down flat on his face as he's being escorted out by the Secret Service. Here, play this clip.
Law Enforcement or FBI Representative
There's the president being escorted, the president being escorted out one side, the vice President being asked.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
And I'm just going to show it to you from another angle right now so you can see for yourself here. Let's play this clip. And then there's this very bizarre footage. When the incident took place at the White House correspondence dinner. Donald Trump was seen, like smirking almost. It's very strange reaction. I'll just show it to you in slow motion here. Let's play it. All right. More on that in just a moment. And then during the press conference that followed with Cash Patel and Todd Blanche that Donald Trump had like a half hour after and he was saying, now, this incident is why we need a golden ballroom. We need a secure ballroom, because this would never happen if we had a golden Ballroom. Here's Donald Trump, just so you could see for yourself right here falling asleep as Kash Patel's talking. And we've been showing you these clips of Donald Trump falling asleep over and over again here. Just play this clip.
Law Enforcement or FBI Representative
Those that were there. And if any of those individuals have information, please come forward to law enforcement of the FBI Metropolitan Police Department. We will be examining this individual's background thoroughly. That process has already started and we are going to ensure that he was either a lone wolf actor or anyone else that was responsible. We will analyze all.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
And just to remind you, before the week ended, when Donald Trump was at that press conference which was purportedly about reducing prescription drug prices, he also fell asleep. It almost looked like he was getting into REM sleep. I'll just remind you of that. And then let's talk about Butler, Pennsylvania for a second here. Play this clip.
Trade Agreement Official or Commentator
We continue our work on negotiating international trade agreements 59 days after we stood in this office and President Trump, standing with Albert Bourla from Pfizer, announced the first of the 17 MFN deals. Together with our colleagues from the Department of Commerce under Secretary Lutnick's leadership and from the US Trade represent his office under the leadership of Ambassador Greer. We negotiated a landmark agreement with the government of the United Kingdom in which they agreed to increase significantly the amount that they spent on branded pharmaceuticals for the first time in 26 years. That work continues with other countries. And third, we will continue our work with our partners in Congress to codify the principles that underpin these most favored nation deals so that these savings for American families and this innovation that is unleashed at the same time persists for decades to come.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
Oh, and I do before talking about Butler, let me just show you this to remind you that Donald Trump's press conference that he then held after this incident at the Washington Hilton. He was talking about how he wants to build a golden ballroom and that this shows why you need a golden ballroom. Here, play the this clip.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
And we looked at all of the conditions that took place tonight. And I will say, you know, it's not a particularly secure building. And I didn't want to say this, but this is why we have to have all of the attributes of what we're planning at the White House. It's actually a larger room and it's a much more secure, it's got, it's drone proof, it's bulletproof glass. We need the ballroom. That's why Secret Service, that's why the military are demanding it. They've wanted the ballroom for 150 years for lots of different reasons. But today's a little bit different because today we need levels of security that probably nobody's ever seen before.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
Now, this is what Marjorie Taylor Greene posted this past week as it relates to Butler, Pennsylvania. Here's what she says. She goes I'm not calling the Butler assassination a hoax, the assassination attempt, but there are a lot of questions that deserve public answers. I'm asking why won't Trump release the information about Matthew Crooks? Did he actually act alone? If not, who is behind him and who helped him? Why the COVID up? Now, there has been a lot of effort to not be as forthcoming as necessary, we'll just put it that way. As it relates to the purported shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania back in July of 2024. Now, you will recall that Donald Trump promised that he would release his medical records as related to that assassination attempt or the purported incident that took place back then. Instead of ever releasing the medical records, instead of MAGA sycophant Ronnie Jackson, MAGA Republican congressman who was a physician to Donald Trump at one point in time, but not anymore, he posted the following Instead of the actual Butler Memorial Hospital records being produced, here's what Ronny Jackson wrote back on July 26, 2024 as the former physician to the President of Donald Trump, I have continued to monitor his health and well being along with his primary care ph since the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania on the evening of July 30th. The would be assassin fired multiple rounds from a relatively close distance using a high powered rifle with one bullet striking the former president and now the Republican nominee for president in the right ear. I have reviewed President Trump's medical records from Butler Memorial Hospital where he was initially evaluated and treated for a gunshot wound to the right ear. Having served as an emergency medicine physician for 20 years in the United States Navy, including as a combat physician on the battlefield in Iraq, I have treated many gunshot wounds in my career. Based on my direct observations of the injury, my relevant clinical background, and my significant experience evaluating and treating patients with similar wounds, I completely concur with the initial assessment and treatment provided by the doctors and nurses at Butler Memorial Hospital on the day of the shooting. During the congressional hearing two days ago, FBI Director Christopher Wray suggested that it could be a bullet, shrapnel or glass. There is absolutely no evidence that this was anything other than a bullet. Congress should correct the record. As confirmed by both the hospital and myself. Director Wray is wrong and inappropriate to suggest anything else. As a former White house physician for 14 years who served during three presidential administrations and served as the appointed physician for both Obama and Trump, I fully understand the global significance of this attempt on the life of a former president. So what they were going with is that Donald Trump got shot in the face with an AR15 bullet. He got shot in the ear and it barely left any mark because Donald Trump's ear is apparently immune to AR15 bullets. Like that's what they were going with. And they never released the Butler Memorial Hospital. Instead they released propaganda photos like this I was saved by God to make America great again and photos like that. But notice the difference and how he responded to that one versus this incident that took place at the White House correspondents Dinner. Oh, by the way, then they sold all of the merch, the fight, fight, fight merch. With this purported assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, are they going to start selling White House correspondence dinner merch? Should also be noted that Matthew Crooks, who lived in Pennsylvania, he was a Trumper, his family was a Trump supporting family. And like Fox state regime media, all of them tried to like gloss over that fact and act like, oh, like he was like a liberal or something and that's why he was going after Donald Trump. Do you remember when Donald Trump showed off his ear to Joe Rogan, though, and was trying to explain it? Remember that? Just so we can see it for yourself, play this clip.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)

Interviewer or Podcast Host
Timing.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
I think our timing's perfect. Do you even have a Scar on your ear. You got anything on there?
Interviewer or Podcast Host
I do. Let me say so right over here. It zicked right there.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
It's. It healed up pretty good.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
Yeah, it's pretty good. Yeah. It's little. It's not like some of the wrestlers, some of the UFC fighters.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
No.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
You didn't get cold? No, no, it was sort of like a top shot. The point of the bullet was a little in the ass, but you see the things taken off a little bit. But it makes me a tougher guy. You know, the fighters. You know, the fighters love their. You know, Bo Nickel, he's a great fighter.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
Yeah, I love Bo Nickel.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
How's he gonna do? I think he's true.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
He's great. He's a fantastic fighter.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
He was almost like, undefeated in college.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
Yeah, he's a fantastic wrestler and one of the. One of the best mixed martial arts.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
When is he fighting again?
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
He's fighting in Madison Square Garden in November.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
Oh, that's going to be an interest after the election.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
Yep.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
So I'll either go as president or I'll be depressed and I won't bother. Yeah, I think they're having a fight right now.
Podcast Guest or Interviewee (Theo Vaughn)
One of the things that.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
And then shortly thereafter, he said that his lobe heals very quickly, and that's why he had no mark on his ear. After everybody in his orbit claimed that he got shot in the ear with an AR15 bullet. I mean, do you remember the official story? He got shot in the face, but it didn't leave a mark, apparently. And here's how he described his lobe. Let's play it.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
Pretty. Pretty much recovered. Yeah, I'm a fast healer. It's a hell of a shot, but I'm a fast healer. Yeah, pretty much. Pretty much recovered. No, it didn't hit that. I got very lucky. It just. It just hit the lobe, as they call it. Yeah, a little bit. Not much on top of a little
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
bit, you know, and I think that makes us. We need to reflect generally on everything that's going on right now. I mean, we all know that Donald Trump really can't walk in a straight line right now. Right. I mean, we have the video of him, for example, when he was meeting Putin in August in Alaska. He couldn't walk in a straight line. He's kind of zigzagging left to right. Similarly, when he meets with foreign leaders, we see it all the time. He had to be guided through the room by the Japanese Prime Minister, Takahashi, you know, and that brings me to this guy, Sean Barbarella, who's The physician to the United States. He's the physician to the President of the United States. There's Barbarella. He's the guy responsible for preparing what I believe are these phony medical reports for Donald Trump. They're not even medical reports. They're doctor's notes. So he's the guy who, back on April 13, 2025, during Donald Trump's annual physical, then said that Trump remains in excellent health, exhibiting robust cardiac, pulmonary, and neurological and general function. And it goes on to say Trump's day includes participation in multiple meetings, public appearances, press availability, and frequent victories in golf events. And that's how they describe he's healthy because he frequently wins golf events. Frequent victories in golf events is not something that goes on a medical report. It's also false. Donald Trump cheats at golf and he plays in his own course and gives himself a war, which is freaking weird. But that doesn't belong. Even if he did win, which he didn't, that shouldn't be going into medical reports in the first place. And then they have obvious red flags like this. They say that Donald Trump is 75 inches and 224 pounds. They say he's between 63 and 64 and only weighs 224 pounds. I mean, the guy's probably 300 pounds at least. And. But they claim he's 2 24, you see, right there. And it's just lie after lie after Lyle. And then of course, there was Donald Trump's. So that was his annual report in 2025, which means he's supposed to have an annual report right now, April in 2026. Where's his 2026 annual report? I've been saying over and over again, they're hiding that or he skipped it because we're at the end of April annual. Last one was April 13, 2025. Annual should be April 2026. I know I'm not great at math. And then they said there was a semiannual back on October of 2025. That's the one where Donald Trump got MRIs. And then Trump was asked what part of the body that they were looking at because Barbarella almost tried to hide it. Barbarella was like, he got advanced imaging during the semiannual Walter Reed check. And then, remember, Trump was asked about it. Here's what he says. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump (via clips)
They asked about my MRI. MRIs are very.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
Governor Waltz asked you to release the MRI records.
Donald Trump (via clips)
Will you tell us what it was, Governor Walz? You mean the incompetent Governor Walls So if they want to release it, it's okay with me to release it. It's perfect.
Found Financial Advertiser
What was?
Interviewer or Podcast Host
The rower.
Donald Trump (via clips)
They looked just like my phone call where I got impeached. It's absolutely perfect. So if you want to hear about it or if you want to release it. Do you want to have it released? News Nation failing. Failing News Nation. News Nation is doing a lousy. By the way, but if you want to have it released, I'll release it.
Jerry Insurance Advertiser
Can you tell us what they were looking at?
Donald Trump (via clips)
For what? Releasing. No, no, no.
Law Enforcement or FBI Representative
What part of your body was the MRI looking at?
Donald Trump (via clips)
I have no idea. It was just an mri.
Interviewer or Podcast Host
What part of the body?
Donald Trump (via clips)
It wasn't the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it. I got a perfect mark, which you would be incapable of doing. Goodbye, everybody. You too.
Main Host/Narrator (Midas Touch Network Host)
Thank you, Mr. President. So I think that when you see Donald Trump falling flat on his face and the White House correspondents dinner kind of froze and was unable to walk straight, then he holds that bizarre press conference after where he's basically falling asleep. We saw him falling asleep the week all of his press conferences. The guy just falls asleep right now all of the time. And then you think about the prior purported assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania and how they never produced medical records there. And I think that raises questions about he's never actually produced any credible medical records, in my opinion, at all. And then we see his physical and cognitive decline before our eyes right now. So. So I think all fair, legitimate questions to be asking. Because at the end of the day, the main question we're asking here is show it. Why aren't you showing us your actual medical records? You know, are you trying to hide. I'm asking the question that you have what your father had and what runs in your family. Very serious Alzheimer's and very serious cognitive decline. I don't know if you do or you don't. I'm sharing my opinion here, but my opinion is very. I think that you should dissuade any person's opinion by showing your records. Show the Butler records produce a transparent Butler investigation report as well. And I think a lot of that needs to be. At the end of the day, it's just transparency. It's just transparency. And with everything this regime covers up, covers up. And it's like when they go, oh, he got shot in the head with an AR15 bullet, but it didn't leave a mark. Come on, we're not stupid. We're not stupid. It's like all their cover ups we produced all the Epstein files. No, you didn't. You didn't. You're covering up tens of millions of files. You're covering up a child sex trafficking. We're not stupid. The Strait of Hormuz is open. No, it's not. It's closed. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz. Why are you saying such flagrant lies? Iran really wants to meet with us. It's going to be a super great meeting. No, they don't. They don't want to meet with you. They don't want to meet with you as long as you're threatening them and have a naval blockade. They've been very clear about that. We won the war. No, you didn't. We did. Regime change. No, you didn't. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard is in power. They controlled the Strait of Hormuz. The regime has actually never been more entrenched. You didn't win the war. Like we're not dumb. We're not dumb. You know, I don't know if he thinks these things, you know. You know, doing the press conference right after the White House Correspondents dinner, that's going to help his poll numbers. We're going to conjure sympathy. It isn't. It isn't because the American people don't care about tuxedo events. I mean, the American people are the ones who are suffering every damn day.

Date: April 26, 2026
Hosts: Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas
Main Theme:
A critical analysis of the latest public incident highlighting Donald Trump’s physical and cognitive decline, speculation regarding his medical transparency—especially after the Butler, Pennsylvania shooting incident—and a broader commentary on media, transparency, and accountability.
In this episode, the Meiselas brothers break down video footage of a dramatic incident at the White House Correspondents Dinner, where Donald Trump was visibly unable to walk and appeared to physically collapse, raising urgent questions about his health. The brothers contextualize this with earlier controversies, including the lack of transparent medical records after the alleged assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Throughout, they use their signature sarcastic, informed style to argue for greater transparency and accountability from Trump—and to highlight what they see as a pattern of cover-ups and gaslighting by Trump and his supporters.

The episode is marked by sharp, sarcastic banter between the brothers—combining legal, journalistic, and media expertise to deliver their highly critical, unapologetically pro-democracy perspective. Their commentary is both tongue-in-cheek and deeply concerned, using ridicule and fact-checking to challenge the official Trump narrative and demand answers.
The Meiselas brothers spotlight Trump’s recent disturbing public incidents, using them to call out an ongoing lack of medical transparency and a broader culture of cover-up and disinformation in Trump’s orbit. The hosts argue that these issues—especially Trump’s suspicious medical secrecy—are emblematic of deeper problems in American political accountability, and urge their audience to demand real transparency.
