So much NOT being reported on mainstream media. Substack is where we need to be. Michael, you shoot straight from the hip, appreciate your “plain” forthright writing and talk.

And most importantly, DEO, is that Michael knows the Conman very well. He worked for him around ten years and knows much of the Con’s dirty laundry.

Wow, such an angry man. Isn’t it great that you get to speak your opinion FREELY, let’s hope your opinion doesn’t change because you may have to keep it to yourself. Be well🫶

Goodness! Your bitterness will drown you. I do not have this "fucking" moral compass about which you blather. I don't believe "fucking" is the appropriate adjective to describe a "moral compass." I have to wonder if PETER TUCKER is the 3rd alias Desperate Dickless Donnie uses to spew hatred on Michael and those of us who respect his redemption, his mea culpa, his amends. Also, please accept my regrets: I will not attend your pity party.

Awww... And just when I was starting to have fun 😍‼️Yes, I know feeding trolls is to be avoided, but ... sometimes you must mock them. I know you will forgive me because mockery is cathartic. Also, thank you for your service to our community 😎♥️

This monster and his regime want to destroy all that is good. Harvard research and Harvard affiliated doctors and institutions cured my cancer, diagnosed and treated my daughter's serious health problems, and fixed my severe knee injury. I owe my life and my family's quality of life to this crown jewel of our nation. I know we are blessed that our insurance covered our treatments, but I promise you, anyone diagnosed with a serious health condition wouldn't think twice about getting care here if they could. Fuck him and his rotten soul.

Yes, Kristin, did post her medical information here. And she is still alive after a cancer diagnosis and care thanks to Harvard doctors.

What can you say is positive about life saving? Or are you beyond empathy for those that have suffered?

Do you want a medal for your comment?

What if you get cancer next and many hospitals are closed because of Medicare and Medicaid cuts and you now either have no insurance, mammoth co-pay, shortages of cancer drugs and death now waves their hand at you?

I appreciate you Sue 🙏. Yes we are survivors and I am proud to share our stories and our strength. I am proud of how we have encouraged others. I am proud of our brilliant, compassionate doctors. I am happy to be living proof of how science, research and human decency save and improve lives. And I am grateful that we have been given our lives to stand for up what is right. Peter *ucker is a dipshit.

Seriously, PETER, constant use of the hedge "fucking" has diluted its power. It's as common as "ya know" now. Kristin posted a heartwarming successful medical outcome story. You really should consider having your gall bladder removed. It is overfilled with bile.

Michael Cohen! Thank you for putting your heart and soul into this just cause. Can you please spotlight the silent but deadly power behind the “throne” Ross Vought?

Trump is too impaired to do this. The real evil genius is standing beside his chair, sucking power from him, writing his screeds, using him like an autopen: Steven Miller and his MAGA spawn.

"...real evil genius..." agree 100%. In my view, Stephen Miller has been the author of virtually every word out of tRump's mouth.

The one single reason Trump is after Harvard is simple… Trump will rage at anyone or anything that is a threat to his hold on power… Free Speech.. Freedom of expression is the single building block for freedom of imagination, religion, education.. Trump won’t attack free speech head on.. He will find a narrative that society sees as an injustice to hide behind as a shield.

Guess where Obama went to college! Answer is Columbia for undergrad, Harvard for Law School.

This explains the excessive targeting of these two institutions by the Pope of Ignorance. He just HATES it that Obama could do these things but ShitGibbon couldn't.

I remember hearing something to the fact that Trump needed DADDY to even get into PENN. He has an issue with intellectualism. Seriously. There is a very good reason why Trump said publicly while campaigning that he "LOVES" his low-educated voters. And the crowd...ROARS. Seriously. That happened.

He was inserted into the Penn undergraduate program by some sort of bribe. He barely stayed in, needed friends to take his exams and write his papers. One of his teachers was quoted as saying he is the dumbest student ever enrolled there. Of course, his degree is NOT from the Business School.

Idiots are drawn to him. Like him, they are also envious of the better educated. Anti-intellectualism has always been strong in the U.S. We had a brief moment after Sputnik when there was a LITTLE respect for brains.

Well, it's not just the educational intellectuals he can't stand--it's SCIENTISTS, MEDICAL RESEARCHERS. I swear, if doctors didn't take an oath---I wonder if they would feel compelled to NOT TREAT HIM. EVER. He doesn't deserve it. He obviously doesn't think we deserve health care, but what about his children and grandchildren???? SO F'D UP.

If you agree that FOX owns MAGA and you want to stop them read on.

Eviscerate FOX. Deny them ad $ by denying the ad buying company CEO and execs bonuses. For example Home Depot. Boycott them for a full fiscal quarter. Get all on line influencers to post every day for the entire time. See how fast CEO’s stop buying ads - do only ONE brand - do it implacably for an entire quarter. See how quickly you become the new sheriff in town and how fast other CEO’s quit buying ads. See how fast FOX changes content. All they care about is $. Oh - and next generation FOX CEO will be a decent human being if you do this.

In case you missed it - mass action works;

“Target shares fall after hit from tariffs and store boycotts.” (Financial Times) “Target badly misses on earnings, slashes guidance as it battles DEI backlash and reinvigorated Walmart” (Yahoo Finance) “Target's sales are tumbling—and its DEI moves aren't helping” (Business Insider)

My understanding is that buried in this big bullshit bill is an executive oversight provision for federal judge's orders.... meaning the felon & bullshit Barbies don't have to follow federal judge rulings. You, popok & Ben are the experts I look to about these legal implications.

Hey Mr. Cohen, big fan here! I'm reading your book, "Revenge ..." and I've been a subscriber here for about a month. I truly respect and believe you and your story about what happened with the Stormy Daniels hush payoff case and what swirled all around it. I'm sorry what happened to you, e.g., the federal-judge-ruled retaliatory persecution you experienced. Appreciate what you're doing despite the scars you have from that. You and others like Lev and Joe Walsh and MTN have inspired me to try do my part. Do something. So I posted (for the first time) this article and this week's episodes of Unleashed and Hard Truths to my FB feed. I know that's not much but it's something. p.s. I'm a former conservative republican but proud to say never ever voted for mad king wannabe dictator.
