On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, we break down the global fallout from the U.S. invasion of Venezuela as world leaders condemn the move during an emergency United Nations meeting, while Donald Trump continues to stonewall the Epstein files, missing a key deadline to justify his administration’s redactions. We also examine the Trump administration’s escalating crackdown on speech at home, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s unprecedented censure of Senator Mark Kelly for urging service members to honor their oath. Plus, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz suspends his reelection campaign, and much more from Ben, Brett, and Jordy.
