If anyone should know what makes Donald Duck work it's Michael Cohen. He paid highly for the mistake of standing beside the DEVIL!

So true. I would like to say something about Mike Collins(R) 10th district from Georgia. While Van Hollen was in El Salvador, doing tRump's job, Collins put a plaque on Van Hollen's door that read Van Hollen El Salvador. Then texted him to tell him that he replaced his plaque for him. Colllins acted like a frat boy, with too much to drink, playing beer pong at a frat party. I don't think that was what he was elected for. Playing stupid games with people's lives. I thought he was elected to uphold our Constitution. If I lived in Georgia, I would be blowing up his phone with calls about this, I would see it in every newspaper and tv station. How can we have a Congress with players like this. This isn't about what's right or wrong - it's about stupidity. How can so many stupid people be elected to do the job of preserving our Country. They take an oath, which they ignore and say to hell with doing my job - I will do whatever I want. I don't give a damn about my Country, I only care about what I can do for the clown that leads this country, even if, I bury the Constitution and our Democracy in the dust. I can do whatever I want and the American people don't have anything to say about it. Well, listen buster, we the American People, do have a say and that say is that you are not going to help ruin our Country. You will not be there forever. It's not a job you can have forever, because the American people will speak and I am sure, there are a lot who don't like your bullish ways and your not being able to do your job or to tell the truth or even be a man. Just a bullish child that tries to dress like a man. That is pretend. That's not why you were elected. Act like a man for a change. An honest human being, that cares about their country, their people, their rights. In other words, Our Constitution and Democracy.

If Collins and his ilk worked in the private sector, they would be canned. No ifs, ands or buts.

I'd take that as a veiled threat.

Thanks for the morale boost this morning… we’ve got to turn Congress around midterm! Folks need to get out to demonstrate if it’s physically possible for them.

Michael, yes PLEASE the circumstances in which we are facing requires deep insight and courage.

Our Leaders need to think differently. We need an inter disciplinary approach to solving this crisis. The best minds, lawyers, ethicists, historians, fascist historians, our Congressional leaders, the citizens of this country mobilizing and using their voices and mental health experts leading this effort. Michael, there is nothing to lose. Why not call Dr. Bandy X. Lee the Yale Psychiatrist who has been warning of the Existential threat of DJT since 2016/2017. Bandylee.com Her expertise of over 25 yrs as a forensic Psychiatrist and violence prevention expert...allows her the unique opportunity to educate medically so our politicians can intervene politically. Check out her substack. She knows how to contain this regime based on the mental health aspect. Yes the APA issued what was likened to a gag order on mental health professionalsl when they wrote an OP ED for the NY Times however they also received significant amounts of funding from the government at that time. They built a brand new bldg with the money. Michael, all of us who meet while attending Dr. Lee's Friday zoom calls as paid subscribers have been meeting outside of her calls and working tirelessly to spread the word of Dr. Lee's work. Can you please be the one to call her, learn from her, have her as a guest on your show weekly, or invite her to help provide education about the mental pathology we see playing out in politics but more importantly she needs to be consulting with our Congressional Leaders too. Can you help to facilitate that? We need to be proactive about the need for mental health intervention. If the APA won't publicly right their wrong we need someone willing to get Dr. Lee and her colleagues from the World Mental Health Coalition helping NOW. With respect and gratitude for all you are doing.

They have backed themselves into a corner. I don't understand why they don't privately agree to join together to do the right thing. (Perhaps they don't trust each other not to rat someone out?) Bottom line: they are now in a no-win situation... EXCEPT if they throw in the orange towel and start voting like they are supposed to. Pulled off correctly (showing up at town halls to admit big mistakes; ask for forgiveness; subsequently vote better; initiate other activities [participate in protests?], they might even be considered "heroes" or maybe courageous or possibly patriots, depending.

• Congress could have stopped all of this 'tariff' bullshit, they have the power of the 'purse'. Congress contains a bunch of 'pussies' & they will not remain when it comes time to vote again. There are more of us than there are 'maggots' in this country & we need to show them. Every American needs to do what they need to do to cast their vote, whether or not the proposed new voting regulations are passed. 'WE THE PEOPLE' have to make the time to be able to do our civic duty. That duty is to vote & defend the constitution of this 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Right on, George! We the People need to make the GOP more scared of US than they are of Dump. Our main job is to keep up the pressure. Make it relentless and focused. My partner and I are emailing our useless R congressman every day and holding his feet to the fire. Absolutely no mercy for these spineless R traitors!
