State regime media, which calls itself Fox News, devoted an entire segment to attacking my little brother, Jordy. Hey, state regime media, you don't attack my little brother, Jordy. And they attacked him for saying, he goes, Jordy said on the last Midas Touch podcast. He goes, I don't think this should be a political thing. I'm just so pissed that the White House continues to gaslight us over Donald Trump's
Starting point is 00:02:28 deteriorating health. And now they're saying that the reason that Donald Trump's hand looks discolored and the back of his hand always has these bandages over the discolored hand is because he shakes a lot of hands. And Jordy just said, just enough is enough. Just stop with the lies. So state regime media didn't like that my brother Jordy was saying that. So they devoted an entire segment and they're like, the leftist podcast,
Starting point is 00:02:57 Midas Touch is saying that they don't believe that Donald Trump's discolored hand is caused by all of the handshakes. Of course it's caused by the handshake. These leftists then go on to say that Donald Trump has some zombie disease on his hands. Okay, first off, Jordi never said that Trump has a zombie disease on his hand. What we're pointing out is that it's obviously a lie that the reason that his hand is utterly discolored and he wears this bandage is because of handshakes. And by the way, that's not even where the hand actually shakes. Like, when you actually watch the video of how a handshake, you know where a handshake works and you watch the video of where the discolored bandage goes over his hand? Let's just watch what
Starting point is 00:03:43 happens here. This is Fox's segment attacking my little brother, Jordy. Here, play this clip. You know they're wrong. Caroline Levitt says the president had bandages on his hand because he shakes too many hands. Well, the guys on the Midas touch leftist podcast had an issue with that. Watch. Donald Trump has all of those bruises and bandages because he's out there literally shaking so many hands. You simple-minded people, you guys can't even fathom the amount of hands he's out there shaking. And look, this is why I say, at a certain point, I don't even believe what we're doing here is political. Plain and simple, I just don't want to be lied to and I don't want to be gaslit. The funniest part, he went on to say that the bandages on the hands were some kind
Starting point is 00:04:31 of weird, wacky disease, you know, like, oh, he had something and it was some zombie-ish thing. Of course. In the words of my 12-year-old, brough, you don't want to be lied to? Where were you when we were being lied to about Joe Biden's actual mental state and all of the people like puppeteering him? Like, he was a Muppet, like, seriously. Maybe that doesn't look suspicious to me at all. Having worked with a lot of A-List talent that are actually out there shaking a lot of hands, this isn't surprising.
Starting point is 00:05:01 I mean, the guy's an elderly man, your skin gets thinner as you get older. At least he has the mental capacity to run the United States and run it better than Joe Biden did. Now, state regime media has been going after the Midas touch over and over again.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Let me just share with you when they went after one of our hosts, Aaron Parnas, because early on, Aaron Parnas was just giving the facts about where ice raids were going to take place. Parnas was ahead of the curve and just pointing out, here's where we expect an ice raid to take place. And then state regime media said that Parnas should be prosecuted by the DOJ. Here play this clip. Well, it's not just championing illegal immigrants detained in New Jersey. There's a new trend on the left. And that's warning illegal immigrants about planned ice raids in sanctuary cities you have some breaking news right now according to reports ice raids are
Starting point is 00:05:55 coming to washington dc tomorrow and wednesday especially those working for door dash are going to be subject to these raids ice agents plan to initiate operations after breakfast hours and before dinner time if you live in the dmv area listen up and then state regime media which calls itself fox went after us again recently i'm going to show you another clip before doing that just to reminder hit subscribe help the Midas touch youtube channel it's six million subscribers as you know we are under attack from state regime media we're under attack from the trump regime they want us shut down they're investing billions of dollars into their digital infrastructure to try to destroy us so just double check that you're subscribed and help us hit six million subscribers so then again
Starting point is 00:06:44 this just happened also another segment from state regime media which calls itself Fox. They went after a segment that I did, one of the interviews I did, with Dr. Vin Gupta, who runs Midas Health. And Dr. Vin Gupta was reflecting on Donald Trump's poor health. And state regime media was like, the New York Times and this Midas Touch interview, they're talking about Trump's health. We've been talking about Donald Trump's health for a long time now. But anyway, here's Fox going after Dr. Gupta. Here, play this clip right here. The New York Times claiming that he's slowed down and he's showing signs of fatigue. Americans see Mr. Trump less than they used to.
Starting point is 00:07:23 He has fewer public events on his schedule and is traveling domestically much less than he did by this point during his first year in office. Although he is taking more foreign trips. He also keeps a shorter public schedule than he used to. Most of his public appearances fall between noon and 5 p.m. on average. Well, the man is almost 80, but he's also a machine. I mean, he barely sleeps. He works around the clock. and he constantly talks to the press.
Starting point is 00:07:48 And meanwhile, Biden always slept, worked sometimes, and never talked to the press unless they're asking him about ice cream flavors. But some people are still living in opposite world when it comes to these two presidents. President Biden was active on the weekends, especially riding his bike in Rahobit Beach. No one denied that with President Biden
Starting point is 00:08:10 that he had his moments of being 80 or, you know, 82, whatever it was. In this case, the White House is not willing to even acknowledge that the president has showing obvious signs, signs of age-related decline. One, you might take trips out overseas in Air Force One that doesn't substitute for the lack of physical activity. There's a reason to be worried based on his public performance. Well, Biden also fell off that stationary bike. So here to discuss it is Clay Travis, Outkick founder, and Fox News contributor. Now, you also probably saw recently that Donald Trump posted the interview that I did with Eric Holder,
Starting point is 00:08:52 former attorney general under the Obama administration, where Eric Holder said that we need to really have a serious discussion about Supreme Court reform because this right-wing Supreme Court is rogue. This right-wing Supreme Court is causing significant harm to the American people, and they're not reflecting where 70% of Americans are, 80% of Americans are on most issues. So then Donald Trump posts our interview, state regime media, which calls the Fox was focused on it as well. And it's the interview. And then Trump's like, Obama's sycophant, former attorney general did this interview. And he said that he wants to Supreme Court reform. We need to, we need to eliminate the filibuster now. Look what these leftists are doing. So then,
Starting point is 00:09:43 After state regime media attacks us, they try to make the case that Donald Trump is in great health. So here's how they tried to do that. They have Jesse Waters say that you can't be a dictator with dementia. Here, play this clip. You can't be a dictator with dementia. You can't suspend an election and then forget you suspended an election. Trump didn't need note cards to know who Hillary Clinton was. And the guy has the longest memory of anybody.
Starting point is 00:10:11 He remembers every slight, every name. every statistic the man is a lot of things he does not have dementia then they have howard lutnik again they they're they're attacking our reporting so then they bring on they bring on the commerce secretary after attacking our reporting lutnik and luttnick's like donald trump he sleeps less than me okay he barely sleeps at all yeah that's a sign of alzheimer's and dementia i'm not suggesting that donald trump has or doesn't have any i'm just giving you opinions i i first had opinion protection, right? But here's what Lutnik says,
Starting point is 00:10:46 because what Lutnik says would be another sign of Alzheimer's or dementia. Here, play this clip. Give it all we've got. The president sleeps less than me. I sleep five hours a night. The president sleeps four hours a night,
Starting point is 00:10:58 and he's working all the time. He calls me late at night. He wants to talk about the day. He's on it all the time. It is the most impressive thing you've ever seen. So Howard, you got to watch. And then they bring in this guy, Dr. Marcus,
Starting point is 00:11:13 Siegel, this guy's a quack. And this guy's like, all the executives are getting preventative MRIs right now, just of the abdomen. So it makes sense that Donald Trump would just get MRIs of the abdomen. Okay, that's not a thing. There's no such thing as a preventative MRI of the abdomen. But here's what Dr. Siegel says. Here, play this clip.
Starting point is 00:11:34 They're going, oh, why is he having an MRI? Well, because that's, by the way, what executives do now. They have MRIs of the heart. Dr. Fuster at Sinai is doing them on a lot of people. I had screening tests, and he had some leg swelling. They went after that, so he had an MRI. Looks normal. But Biden, by comparison, was not normal.
Starting point is 00:11:53 He had medical problems. He had prostate cancer. He had cognitive problems. Okay. So we'll put our doctors against the Fox doctors any day of the week. So that was the Fox doctor. So I'll let you all decide for yourself, right? That's the Fox medical expert, Dr. Siegel.
Starting point is 00:12:09 Let's take a look at the Midas Touch lead doctor, Dr. Gupta, who runs Midas Health. And here's what he said when he spoke to all of his radiology colleagues, what they told him play this clip. Well, Ben, I had a chance to speak to a lot of radiology colleagues at the best academic institutions in the country over the last 24 hours because, you know, I want to make sure that we're getting the very best expertise to cross specialties for Midas and Midas Health. So no one is aware of getting an MRI of the torso, which is what the results that were summarized in the physicians note that Carolyn Leavitt read out, it doesn't exist. They had justified getting an MRI of the torso for primary screening of some sort of medical process because he's older. And, you know, that doesn't exist.
Starting point is 00:13:04 I'm not aware, my colleagues across the spectrum in radiology are not aware of that type of screening process. You just don't do it. And I think the fact that they reported only the cardiovascular and abdominal findings is odd. Why? Did you get a full body MRI? Because that's in vogue amongst a certain sub-segment of society. And they just reported the cardiac and the abdominal findings.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Okay. Then why? Did they leave out everything else? Did they just get a torso MRI? Why? There is no clinical guideline that exists. And again, these are the most credentialed radiologists in the country. I challenge anybody to find a group of folks that is more credentialed and more accomplished
Starting point is 00:13:50 and knows what to do and when to do MRIs than the folks I've spoken with. No one is aware of any type of screening guideline to say, yes, as you age, get an MRI of the heart. of your abdomen. And then when it comes to Donald Trump taking cognitive exams over and over again, here's what Dr. Gupta said. And Dr. Gupta, as you know, leads the Midas Health Initiative. Here's what he said about that. Play this clip.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Dr. Gupta, I know you've got to run. I just want to close the loop on one more thing. In the experts that you speak to it in your own practice, have you ever heard of somebody taking these cognitive exams that Trump keeps saying he's taking like every three months or six months, this level of, have you ever heard of that? Like with that level of frequency? No, nobody takes a Montreal cognitive assessment, MOCA for short, which it focuses on recall, memory loss, basic things, mild cognitive dysfunction is what it tends to sort of screen for.
Starting point is 00:14:46 It's not a great tool. No one takes it with this type of frequency. I was not when Nicole Wallace yesterday, I thought she said it beautifully, you know, saying that you're passing it every other week is not some sort of flex here that he thinks it is. This is, it's an unusual thing to keep boasting about. Doing it as frequently as he's doing makes no sense. I don't know any neurologist that would recommend doing a mocha with that type of frequency. And again, it's not the flux that I think he thinks of this.
Starting point is 00:15:12 And then you'll see here, Laura Ingram and Siegel, this doctor from Fox, say, well, yeah, you know, who cares that Donald Trump sleeps all the time? You know, that's normal in meetings to just randomly fall asleep in meetings. That's all the rage, what everybody's doing here, play. this clip. Well, we all know that he doesn't sleep. You know, I'm not a big sleeper either. So, you know, I, on occasion, I close my eyes. If someone's talking for too long, I admit it. But big deal. I mean, the results speak for themselves. What President Trump does on a daily basis. If you sleep three hours or four hours a night, you're probably going to close your eyes, whether you're 79 or 49. I don't think that matters. Yeah, President Trump,
Starting point is 00:15:59 Thomas Edison believed in the 10-minute nap, by the way. What would they say? We wouldn't have electricity, right? Oh, my goodness. Well, Dr. Siegel, we will continue to see them fixate on this after everything they did to cover for jail. And then finally, you have state regime media again with that Dr. Siegel speaking with Laura Ingraham
Starting point is 00:16:21 and saying they went crazy. They went crazy because what Rubio did here at play this clip. Yeah, there was a moment where, again, social media goes crazy and the left is going crazy after totally deep-sixing any concern about Biden for four years. And they went crazy because at one point today
Starting point is 00:16:41 when Rubio was talking, President Trump had his eyes closed for, you know, a few seconds. It seemed like a few seconds. But they went crazy. Like, he's sleeping during meetings. Like, your reaction tonight. I think he seems extremely sharp, and I think this whole thing is a bait and switch. They don't like that he's going after the autopen stuff because Biden doesn't look like he even
Starting point is 00:17:07 knew that he was signing with an auto pen, let alone what he was signing. Well, I'll let you all judge for yourself. You all take the facts for yourself, okay? But state regime media is attacking us. We hope that you will hit subscribe and help us get to 6 million subscribers. Hey, Midas, Mighty. It's Ben Brett and Jordy, and we just wanted to thank you. for being the backbone of this movement.
