Friday, June 1, 2025. Donald Chump platforms a registered sex offender at te White House yesterday, he floats the notion of pardoning sex trafficker and rapper Piss Panties and he continues to float pardoning convicted pedophile and sex trafficker Maxwell. His remarks are offending the victims of Epstein and Maxwell but that doesn't bother him. So when exactly are people going to catch on that he's not someone who cares about the victims of assault?
The
MeidasTouch Podcast, which is often critical of President Donald Trump,
has surpassed popular podcaster Joe Rogan on YouTube.
Newsweek has contacted MeidasTouch and a representative for Rogan for comment via email.
Podcast
charts have long been dominated with conservative or pro-Trump
voices—such as Rogan, Shawn Ryan and Ben Shapiro, who frequently appear
in the top 10. Trump himself appeared on some of those podcasts during
his 2024 bid for the presidency as he eschewed traditional media
outlets.
However, since Trump returned to office in January, The MeidasTouch Podcast has consistently topped charts, emerging as one of the country's most-listened-to shows. The success of MeidasTouch
through the first six months of Trump's administration indicates a
potential shift in what resonates with Americans and what they want to
listen to.
YouTube
data for July 21 to 27 shows The MeidasTouch Podcast as the top podcast
on the platform in the United States, with The Joe Rogan Experience in
second place.
According to Podscribe data captured from June 7 to July 7, MeidasTouch was the No. 1 podcast by downloads and views per month.
Podscribe
reported that MeidasTouch amassed 124 million views in that month. The
same rankings had Rogan at No. 2, having amassed 39.2 million views in
that period.
MeidasTouch was founded by three
brothers: Ben, Brett and Jordy Meiselas. It is described on its website
as a "Pro-democracy news network" and began with viral videos and
political ads that opposed Trump and supported Democratic candidates.
Now let's go to Ben's fresh post this morning.
There's a lot Ben's covering in the video above, but when I want to zoom in on is the man arrested multiple times for drugs and who also had sex with a 16 year old. Registered sex offender Lawrence Taylor. Had sex with a 16-year-old. His defense? He was just paying a prostitute, he didn't know how old she was.
That's who Chump brings into the White House.
The country needs to stop for one damn moment and all absorb this together. He is a registered sex offender and Chump brings him to the White House
Taylor has twice been arrested regarding his registered sex offender status. In 2021 and in July of last year -- he moved both times and failed to update his address in the sex offender data base.
This is who Chump brought to the White House yesterday.
Taylor has appeared on stage with Trump at campaign rallies in the
past. But his attendance at the White House on Thursday comes as Trump
faces increasing pressure over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein,
a convicted sex offender who authorities say died by suicide in a
federal jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking
charges.
The president is facing an outcry over his
administration's refusal to release additional records related to
Epstein, despite earlier promises of transparency. He has tried to
deflect questions about the case, expressing annoyance that people are
still talking about it even as some of his allies continue to promote
conspiracy theories about it.
Trump told reporters this week that Epstein "stole" Virginia Giuffre,
one of Epstein's most well-known accusers, from his Mar-a-Lago club,
where she worked in the summer of 2000 when she was 16. That raised
questions, including from Giuffre's family, about how much Trump knew about Epstein's crimes given he continued to associate with Epstein after 2000. Trump said on Thursday that he didn't know why Epstein was taking young employees from Mar-a-Lago, and that it caused him to cut ties and ban Epstein from the club.

Taylor's presence at the White House sparked a backlash on social media.
"Trump
literally had Lawrence Taylor, a registered sex offender who raped a
16-year-old, featured at the White House as he announced his 'President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition' initiative for kids," social media personality Brian Krassenstein wrote on X, formerly Twitter. He described this as "Sickening!"
And it is sickening and tasteless and does go to his character and how assault doesn't really bother him.
Let's turn to lying trash. I don't like "P" "Diddy" or whatever the omni-sexual predator calls himself and that's been made clear repeatedly over the years to his face. Here? I've ignored him until he lied about a friend. Will Smith wanted to be a little bitch and slap Chris Rock. But like most little bitches, Will Smith didn't want to take the consequences for his actions. Piss Panties is not Chris Rock's friend. But damned if that liar didn't show up immediately after the slap to say everyone needed to look away, Chris Rock wanted the whole thing forgotten, he knew it because he was friends with Chris and he talked to Chris. And I got on the phone and called my friend Chris Rock and asked WTF? No, he had not spoken to Piss Panties. Piss Panties was, as usual, running interference for his buddy -- down low buddy? -- Will Smith and he was lying.
Donald Trump is heavily weighing giving Sean “Diddy” Combs a full presidential pardon ahead of the convicted Bad Boy Records founder’s sentencing later this year.
Nearly two months after Trump publicly entertained the notion of a Diddy pardon in an Oval Office gaggle, a comprehensive get out of jail card for Combs is being “seriously considered,” an administration source tells Deadline.
Convicted of sex trafficking but Chump's considering pardoning him.
Registered sex offender Lawrence Taylor invited to the White House and celebrated.
I think Chump's being very clear to everyone -- even MAGA and Qanon -- on where he stands and that's with sex offenders. That's where he stands.
That's why he keeps floating a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell.
Chump doesn't want to release the files -- the ones that he's named in -- but he is floating releasing the convicted pedophile and sex trafficker Maxwell.
How stupid is MAGA? How insane is Qanon? They can't pull this together on their own?
Virginia Giuffre's life was destroyed by sex trafficking. Now Chump makes comments about her that are gross and offensive. And her family is speaking out to the media about it.
Tension and energy fill the squad car as OFFICER NOLAN looks at DETECTIVE LOPEZ.
NOLAN: Ready?
Lopez nods. The two pull dark masks over their faces and throw open the doors of their squad car
EXT. TREE LINED STREET -- DAY
Nolan and Lopez run towards a 2024 blue Ford Crown Victoria.

EXT. TREE LINED STREET - DAY
NOLAN: Roll down the window!!!
Nolan and Lopez stand beside the parked car yelling.
NOLAN: Roll down the window!
Lopez
looks at Nolan. He nods. He breaks the window with his gun, reaches
inside and grabs Mason by the t-shirt collar. Lopez reaches in and
grabs Mason by the neck, joining Nolan in pulling a scared Mason out of
the car.
MASON: What's going on! What did I do?
DETECTIVE HARPER runs over towards them as Nolan and Lopez hurl Mason to the ground.
LOPEZ: Down! Stay down!
MASON: Who are you?
NOLAN: Shut up!
Lopez begins tazing Mason while Nolan and Harper kick him.
Would you accept that scene on THE ROOKIE?
How about this on a STARSKY & HUTCH reboot?
INT - 1975 FORD GRAN TORINO - DAY
STARSKY scrolls through his cell phone while Hutch drums on the dashboard.
A FORD MINI-VAN drives slowly past Starsky's TORINO. We see SULTAN in the driver's seat of the van.
INT - 1975 FORD GRAN TORINO - DAY
Hutch leans over and swats Starsky on the arm repeatedly. Starsky shoots him a look and starts the car.
EXT - STREET - DAY
Starsky's car closely follows the mini-van as it turns off the street into a school parking lot.
INT - MINI-VAN - DAY
Sulton drives slowly to the front of the school while talking to his five-year-old son DANNY in the back seat.
SULTON: So what you going to learn today?
DANNY: Everything!
SULTON: You're going to learn everything?
DANNY: Yep!
SULTON: Well if you learn everything today, why would you come back tomorrow?
DANNY: To teach!
Sulton and Danny laugh.
EXT - OUTSIDE SCHOOL - DAY
The mini-van comes to a stop and Starsky immediately brakes as well.
INT - MINI-VAN - DAY
Through the car windows, we see Starsky and Hutch running up alongside the mini-van but Sultan and Danny do not.
SULTAN: Okay, buddy, we're here.
DANNY: Yea!
SULTON: Yea!
Starsky begins bangind on the door of the mini-van on the driver's side.
STARSKY: Get out! Get out!
Danny looks around scared. Sulton rolls down his window part-way.
SULTON: Can I help you?
STARSKY: Out of the car! Now! Out of the car!
Sulton: Who are you?
Starsky: I said out of the car, asshole!
Starsky begins hitting the driver door window with his gun until he breaks it while Danny screams.
HUTCH: Out of the car! He said out of the car!
SULTON: It's okay, Danny. It's okay.
Starsky
pulls open the door and pulls Sulton out of the mini-van. Sulton lands
on the ground on his back. Hutch and Starsky stand over him with guns
drawn while Danny screams.
HUTCH: Shut up, brat! I said shut up!
FEMALE PRINCIPAL comes running up.
FEMALE PRINCIPAL: What is going on here? I'm calling the police.
STARSKY: Ma'am, ma'am, we're going to need you to step back.
FEMALE PRINCIPAL: What are you doing to Mr. Rahi? Mr. Rahi, are you okay?
Hutch walks over to the woman menacingly.
HUTCH: He told you to step back.
Only
now do Starsky and Hutch register that every child going to the school,
as well as teachers and and some other parents have witnessed the
assault on
Sultan.
TV is bad. It's not that bad yet. We haven't gotten to the point where that would be acceptable.
So why are we treating it as acceptable on our streets, in our communities?
ICE
agents want to be seen as heroes. Heroes don't act out the scenes
above. But they took place on our streets in the United States.
Donald
Chump is a convicted felon. A crook. And he doesn't have any respect
for due process. But while we need to call out the lack of due process
once arrested, we also need to be calling out the procedures by which
immigrants are being taken into custody.
When
you are taken into custody in the United States, it generally works
something like this: 1) An officer of some enforcement body utilizes
probable cause -- a crime has taken place, is taking place or is about
to commence. 2) If a crime has taken place, a warrant for someone's
arrest has been obtained. If a crime is taking place or is about to
take place, an arrest does not require a warrant. 3) The officer must
inform the suspect of their rights (basic Miranda Rights). 4) The
arresting officer must use the minimum force required to carry out the
arrest. 5) Would be where Due Process -- as most mean the term -- would
kick in. Appearing before someone in the judiciary, etc.
Why are we allowing Chump to destroy our procedures in place for decades in order to carry out cruelty.
And this is cruelty aimed at immigrants, yes. But also at US citizens.
THE ROOKIE scenario above?
George
Retes. That's the name of the man this actually happened to. In
California. And he's not an immigrant. He's a US citizen and, in fact,
an Iraq War veteran. And when ICE began attacking him, they didn't
listen and they didn't care. Olga R. Rodriguez (AP) notes
"It
took two officers to nail my back and then one on my neck to arrest me
even though my hands were already behind my back," Retes said.
[. . .]
Retes
was taken to the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown Los Angeles,
where he said he was put in a special cell on suicide watch and checked
on each day after he became emotionally distraught over his ordeal and
missing his 3-year-old daughter's birthday party Saturday.
He
said federal agents never told him why he was arrested or allowed him
to contact a lawyer or his family during his three-day detention.
Authorities never let him shower or change clothes despite being covered
in tear gas and pepper spray, Retes said, adding that his hands burned
throughout the first night he spent in custody.
On Sunday, an officer had him sign a paper and walked him out of the detention center. He said he was told he faced no charges.
"They
gave me nothing I could wrap my head around," Retes said, explaining
that he was met with silence on his way out when he asked about being
"locked up for three days with no reason and no charges."
When Americans see these tactics being used, they rightly recoil.
