The MeidasTouch Network is a progressive media company founded in 2020 by brothers Ben, Brett, and Jordan Meiselas. It began as an anti-Trump Super PAC and rebranded into a pro-democracy newsroom that continues to operate independently of the political action committee, which later renamed itself Democracy Defense Action.【4f130d†L1-L68】

Multi-platform distribution

The network maintains a large digital footprint with 5.4 million YouTube subscribers, 2.5 million TikTok followers, and more than 822,000 readers of its Meidas+ Substack newsletter. These channels circulate video commentary, live reaction streams, podcasts, and written briefings aimed at mobilizing audiences against authoritarian movements in U.S. politics.【4f130d†L1-L33】

Editorial positioning

Self-described as “pro-democracy” journalism, MeidasTouch produces rapid-response videos, social media campaigns, and topical series that highlight perceived threats to democratic institutions. The founders’ backgrounds in law, television production, and marketing shape a strategy that pairs viral video editing with legal analysis and political messaging.【4f130d†L1-L68】

Integration with creator network

The network amplifies emerging voices—including Gen-Z host Adam Mockler—through collaborative Substack articles, shared podcasts, and live panels. These partnerships extend MeidasTouch’s reach into youth-oriented communities while reinforcing its branded campaigns and merchandise partnerships coordinated through allied ventures like Mockler Media.【995c03†L1-L32】【133ec3†L123-L162】
