It is plain and simple, Trump is mentally unstable. And I don’t understand why the Democrats and citizens are not calling him out as they did to President Biden during the campaign. Shame on you Democrats for not taking advantage of Trump’s mistakes, inconsistencies, and his back-and-forth.

“Flood the zone” works. It’s a challenge to focus on one thing when facing a barrage of insanity, corruption and multiple lies daily. Hourly.

Trump isn’t mentally unstable. He’s not smart, but he’s stable enough.

He’s always been low-intellect, but, like Rs in Congress, he understands offers of lots of money. That doesn’t take a genius.

He’s clearly working for Russia. It would be treason (and actually is) in any other time.

To brush it off as Trump simply being mentally unstable is to not acknowledge the severity (and, treasonousness) of the situation.

Yes! Also, don't forget all the Democrats who were also calling Biden out! Pelosi did and plenty of others! Yet all those who were calling Biden out and calling for him to step down, haven't said anything about this nightmare we are living through now! It's like they're trying to fade off into the woodwork or something.

I'm right there with you Olivia — it was a disgraceful performance. I couldn't watch it without vomiting! I knew exactly what he was going to say. He's afraid of Senator Elizabeth Warren. She is a thousand times more intelligent than Donald. Don't get me started on Ukraine! Abandoning Ukraine will come back to bite him in the a**!

Nepal has a very good measles-rubella vaccination program. They have an aim of vaccinating about 5.7 million children. This was implemented in 2024. Their goal is to eliminate measles by 2026.

The United States actually achieved eliminating measles as a threat inside our country. I think it was in the 1990's double check me; but it was in that time period. Then people started to elect not vaccinating their children in the 2000's which did not lower the incidence of autism but brought back measles which killed a child in Texas and will kill more. It was RJK Jr riding on the reputation of his father and uncle who first started whispering in the ears of mothers especially that vaccines caused autism that got us here. So many people in power today that we would have been so better off if they were never born or murdered in their cribs. So, maybe we should go to Nepal for our vaccines. I doubt we will have vaccines in short order given under RFK Jr the planning meeting to determine what strains of flu will hit next year was cancelled.

I was vaccinated in the 50’s when I was in elementary school. ( no age jokes lol) I think I may have been revaccinated later. In the Philippines there was a terrible outbreak in 2019 48000 cases with about 350 deaths. Not to mention all the mosquito borne diseases in some of those countries which there is little protection from. I had chikungunya what I call the bone breaker disease. Plenty get dengue fever. Anyway, what kind of clown wouldn’t protect their child from a preventable disease.

It's me. I'm that 50yo woman the congressman was talking of. I have a daughter in college. My dad is in need of memory care assisted living. My siblings are of no help and it all falls to me, along with running my own business, caring for my family and dealing with my own issues. I'm terrified he can't afford care, even though he has pension and Medicare. Is the Social Security in jeopardy? Will Medicaid be there if we need it for nursing care? I can't do this myself.

I'm in Indiana and my state doesn't care about my troubles. Who helps me?

Great show Jim! This is a terrific medium. So much better than corporate media neutering the news for their political and private interests. Free at last!

I have not been able to stop thinking about the Oval Office meeting with Zelensky. It had all the signs of an anti-semitic assault. A leader in Europe said that Zelensky, the President of a sovereign country was treated like a stable boy. He was treated worse than a stable boy. But the browbeating, the gaslighting, the disrespect, the demeaning all has been done to Jews from time immemorial. It sickens me that a President in the Oval Office could have carried this out in front of the world. And it's clear Trump has no intention of supporting Ukraine. That his Republican sycophants could go along with this is horrifying.

We are living a nightmare.
