MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 9/4/26

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben and Brett discuss Donald Trump’s escalating war in Iran, Iran’s strikes on U.S. military bases, and the mounting economic fallout as energy prices surge. They break down Mike Johnson’s abrupt decision to send the House home after mocking claims he would do exactly that, as pressure builds over the Epstein files and Leon Black’s refusal to testify before Congress. The brothers also examine MAGA Republicans scrambling to distance themselves from Trump’s upcoming midterm convention and Trump’s latest election maneuver before the Supreme Court. Ben and Brett dig into the worsening cost-of-living crisis, Trump’s trade war with Canada, and his increasingly hostile attacks on longtime U.S. allies. All this and much more.
