Description
Sheesh!!! The Meidas Brothers are back and are covering it all on today’s episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast. First, the brothers discuss the latest trend taking TikTok by storm – one “sheesh” at a time. Then, they move on to everyone’s least favorite social network, Facebook, and discuss the Facebook Oversight Board’s decision to kick the can down the road on the Trump decision for another 6 months – and the ludicrous (but expected) reaction from GQP circles. Next, the brothers talk about Trump’s fake social media network and the tangible benefits of de-platforming. Then, they dig into the latest in GQP’s legislatures including their support of – and this is true – child abuse, fines for Americans who get vaccines and other insane policies. Next, the brothers welcome lifelong conservative, editor-at-large of The Bulwark, and chairman of the board for the Republican Accountability Project, Bill Kristol. Kristol tells us his take on the current Republican Party and whether he still considers himself to be a member. The brothers wrap up the episode with a chat about Liz Cheney, Mitch McConnell, Caitlyn Jenner and the responsibility of those who wield privilege.
