Summary

On today’s Memorial Day episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, we have an incredible show! We sit down with one of the best news anchors of the modern era, Elex Michaelson, to discuss a wide range of topics across the political landscape at both the national and local levels. Elex is a news anchor for Fox LA and host of the political talk show The Issue Is, which airs across California. The remainder of the episode, we honor the brave men & women who have paid the ultimate sacrifice defending this country. Perhaps the best way to honor their memory is for us to do everything we can to ensure that American democracy is protected from those who seek to dismantle it. Lastly, we discuss the NRA convention in Texas over the weekend, Trump’s disgusting actions at that event and the bombshell Georgia probe into Donald Trump's demand to 'find' him votes during the 2020 election.
