Gavin sits down with Ben Meiselas, co-founder of MeidasTouch and one of the most influential progressive voices in digital media. Meiselas breaks down how independent creators are outpacing corporate media, why Democrats must “flood the zone with the truth,” and how the right exploits tragedy to manipulate public perception.
From Trump’s con on American farmers to the potential selling out of Taiwan to China to the future control of TikTok, this conversation dives deep into the moral vacuum of today’s GOP and what it really means to fight back. Plus how Trump’s DOJ is threatening future elections and how the government shutdown could spell the end of the filibuster.
