In the most heinous pot calling the kettle moment, Donald Trump attacked Michael Cohen: as being a pure liar.
Diminished Donald again took to the cameras to attack the prosecution case, district attorneys, and Michael Cohen.
After rambling several minutes about how nobody wanted to prosecute this case, he turned to his former personal attorney for a decade.
Now, when are they going to look at Pomerantz and what Pomerantz did?
Because that's bad stuff.
And when are they going to look at all the lies that Cohen did in the last trial?
He got caught lying in the last trial.
So he got caught lying.
Pure lying.
And when are they going to look at that?
A lie is a lie.
The HBO documentary The Truth vs Alex Jones, which premiered last month, takes a devastating look at grifter Alex Jones and the very real damage he did to those poor Sandy Hook families who were suffering so badly already.
I know this has been out there for a little while now, but if you have access to HBO or another service that is streaming the documentary, go watch it, but be prepared for a gut wrenching reminder of the horror the families experienced when the shooting occurred and to be infuriated by the fact that Jones basically tortured them for over a decade.
I thought Trump was possibly the worst human being in the United States that's still alive right now, but after watching the documentary on Jones, he may very well have him topped.
There are a couple of really good reviews on the film out there, one from Vanity Fair:read more
You knew the knives would come out after Rep. Tony Gonzales called Rep. Matt Gaetz and Rep. Bob Good "scumbags" this weekend on CNN's State of the Union. He called Matt Gaetz a pedophile ("I serve with some real scumbags. Matt Gaetz, he paid minors to have sex with him at drug parties.”) and Bob Good a member of the Ku Klux Klan for supporting his primary opponent, a guy he calls a known neo-nazi.
But remember, according to cable news, it's the Democrats who are always in disarray.

Rep.
Donald is sad! "Where my peeps?" he wants to know.
"As The New York Times puts it, the former president is not getting the circus he wanted," Mika Brzezinski said.
"The paper reports there were only a handful of Trump supporters outside yesterday morning, and they were outnumbered by the Trump detractors, who had signs about his alleged affair with an adult film actress.
Jimmy Kimmel had a, um, blast last night with the stories about Smelly Trump. Via HuffPost:
Kimmel showed how the reports caused “ODOR IN THE COURT” and #TrumpStinks to trend on X.
The late-night host had a little fun of his own, altering the courtroom sketches to show the jury with gas masks and creating videos in which Trump’s speeches are interrupted by flatulence.
Kimmel also begged people not to share them online since the reports are unconfirmed.
“There’s no way to prove Donald Trump was the one who dealt it, so please don’t repost this video with a dumb caption like ‘Julius Squeezer’ or ‘The Shart Of The Deal’ or ‘You Have The Right To Remain Silent But Deadly’ because we don’t know if any of this is true,” he said.

Newt Gingrich, who is famously a Catholic convert, has some very strange ideas regarding the commandment about lying. But then, he lied just as enthusiastically back when he was a Baptist, so there you go. He's just a liar by nature! Via Media Matters:
NEWT GINGRICH (GUEST): Let me tell you, I am deeply worried that tomorrow, a totally corrupt judge and a totally corrupt district attorney are going to try to put a former president of the United States, candidate of his party, and front-runner in the polls in jail.
