On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day” has arrived—and it’s an economic disaster. His sweeping global tariffs tank the markets and trigger mass layoffs, with job cuts now soaring to pandemic-era levels. As the fallout spreads, even some Republicans are breaking ranks and blasting Trump’s reckless economic agenda, while his inner circle scrambles to defend the indefensible. Trump, meanwhile, fires key members of his National Security team—not over misconduct, but because far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer told him to. Around the globe, world leaders are hitting back with retaliatory measures, and in Wisconsin, a major win for democracy offers a glimmer of hope. Ben, Brett, and Jordy break it all down!

Full Episode
One of the biggest market crashes in history happened today. Trump did that. We saw one of the biggest job cut numbers in a single month today. About 275,000 jobs were cut. We got those numbers, by the way, more than in March 2020 when COVID hit. Also, Trump was in office then, not surprisingly. Yes, Trump did that. Trump tariffed every country in the world.
Donald Trump also tariffed an island near Antarctica that has only penguins and not humans. He also tariffed an area where the only occupants is a single American military base. So both dangerous, destructive and stupid all at once.
causing this crash to the american markets speaking about dangerous and stupid and destructive national security advisor mike walls we learned not surprisingly was doing more of those signal text threads where he was text messaging war plans also apparently our national security advising apparatus uses gmail to send classified information and state secrets. We're learning about that as well.
But that news, I guess, is getting a little buried under the stock market crash that's taking place. Also, Laura Loomer, 9-11 conspiracy theorist, she went to the White House, had a big meeting with Donald Trump while the markets were crashing. Did it result in Mike Walls being fired? No, just some other National Security Council people who were probably actually competent.
Trump took Laura Loomer's advice and fired them. With all of this chaos going on, there was also elections this week. Big election for the Wisconsin State Supreme Court seat. The Democratic-aligned candidate, Judge Susan Crawford, beat Brad Schimel, the Magadoge candidate, who was funded by tens of millions of dollars from Elon Musk. We've got a lot to discuss.
And while all of this is going down, folks, Donald Trump, is he posting anything of comfort? No, the arsonist is mocking the people. Here's what Donald Trump posted. All in caps with exclamation points, of course. The operation is over. The patient lived and is healing. The prognosis is that the patient will be far stronger, bigger, better, and more resilient than ever before.
Make America great again, exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation As George Conway said, he's virtually psychotic. I think we could remove the word virtually and just say psychotic. Our foreign policy, our economic policy, everything we do is being run by a malignant, narcissistic, sociopathic psycho. who wants to cause destruction and is causing devastation to our country.
We've got a lot to discuss on this day that will live in infamy in the history of the United States. No, it's not liberation day as Donald Trump psychotically calls it. It is annihilation day, great depression day. Donald Trump has done to the United States what he has done to his own companies over and over again. bankrupting it in record time.
Brett and Jordy and Midas Mighty, we indeed have a lot to discuss.
