In Greece and in Died present, Jobs, by whom you don't have a lot of experience.

Today, Mr. Berater, how do you feel about it?

Great news. You don't need to worry about it.

How do I describe it? The phenomenon must be respected. In Greece? This is a job for Sponsor Jobs. With the right profile, it won't be passed.

Fordrawing Greek, try Died! And find a qualified talent with Sponsor Jobs. But Died is not looking good for Donald. How much longer will this last? Is it finally happening?

Donald Trump is cognitively and physically declining before our eyes rapidly. And this past week, it got even worse if it was even possible to get worse. And it did, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a world-renowned cardiologist who had been an advisor to the White House for three decades.

Just came out with an op-ed for the New York Times this past week.

And here's what it was called.

I was Dick Cheney's cardiologist. Trump has not looked well, and we should know why. And now, Dr. Jonathan Reiner also discusses that Congress should invoke the 25th Amendment. And he reminds us all that in the 25th Amendment it provides a mechanism, or if the cabinet doesn't do its job, that Congress can step in and provide a process for invoking the 25th Amendment.

And that's precisely what Jamie Raskan said that he will likely do when the Democrats take control of the House of Representatives. I'll talk about Dr. Jonathan Reiner's op-ed in just a moment. But in Iran, they clearly recognize Donald Trump's cognitive and physical decline. They're posting images like this.

The reason for Trump's overly puffy pants has been identified, and they show this photo right here. Now, Iranian social media accounts are also posting Donald Trump's recent stop in Nassau County, where he gave a completely deranged speech. Where Trump claims that he wants to annex the straight of Hormuz for the United States.

And he started talking about how they're all these young little girls at the White House who thank them, all these beautiful young girls who say, "Please help me, please help me Donald." It's a really sickening appearance that Donald Trump made in Nassau County. But what the Iranian social media accounts are also pointing out is that an appear Donald

Trump was wearing an adult diaper or something of that nature.

Here's what the Iranian accounts were posting.

He can't even control his own bowels. The Iranian social media accounts date. Yet he talks about controlling the straight of Hormuz, idiot, is what they say. So let's play this clip. Now of course we've seen all of the photos and videos of Donald Trump falling asleep at

the various cabinet meetings. He falls asleep at Camp David. He falls asleep always at the oval office. He's almost always falling asleep during the day when he's not the person doing the talking at the various meetings where we see him now.

Talk about Dr. Jonathan Reiner's op-ed in a moment. But the White House is now going after Dr. Jonathan Reiner. They say, "This is the statement that was just issued from the White House." Jonathan Reiner is an ass-hat, engaging an armchair diagnosis for political purpose. He is a disgrace to the medical profession.

The White House goes on to say, "President Trump is the sharpest, most accessible and energetic president in American history." Yeah, I think that's not true.

I think that you all lie about everything.

Let's take a look at Dr. Jonathan Reiner's op-ed here. It's called I was Dick Cheney's cardiologist and Trump has not looked well and we should know why. And it says, "The 25th Amendment to the Constitution allows for the best solution to Donald Trump's cognitive and physical decline. It permits Congress to establish a panel outside

the executive branch, to assess the health and fitness of the president. In April of this year, Representative Jamie Raskin introduced a bill to create a congressional commission that would do just that ideally. Such a panel would be empowered to review data from a routine presidential physical examination, as well as assessments performed when medical concerns emerge.

If such commissions were in place today, these are some of the medical questions. It would clarify concerning Trump's health. The American people deserve answers to all of them.

I'll tell you what he said in just a moment.

But just to remind you, when you look at the 25th Amendment, the 25th Amendment provides

for a process whereby Congress can create a path in order for the 25th Amendment to be

invoked that Congress creates a panel. If the cabinet doesn't do it, then Congress can provide its own recommendation in order to remove the president. The president would then have to send a little transmit a letter saying that no, they have their faculties and they are able to serve in the presidency.

Amendment Congress can then challenge that, and then it would require a two-thirds vote of both houses, which would be hard to do in the Senate. We'll see what the composition is in the House of Representatives, but nonetheless this would provide a process whereby the House can conduct a formal 25th Amendment investigation

in addition to impeachment investigations.

This world renowned cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, who again has been an advisor to the White House, is for three decades, other than the Trump regime White House, is saying that's precisely what needs to be done.

Here was Dr. Jonathan Reiner talking to CNN the end of this week about precisely that.

He said that President does not look well at all. Here, play this clip. I'm concerned when I watched the president as he's outlined, he's had multiple very visible ailments. And it's really not hard to see, he's one of the most photographed people ever to hold

the off, maybe the most photographed person ever to hold the office of the presidency. He has these really obvious bruises on both hands that just will not go away. He's had really severe swelling in his legs, and maybe most disturbingly to me, for the last several months, he has fallen asleep in the oval office and in other very public venues over and over and over again.

And then if you just think about, I don't want to play this clip of Donald Trump just because I just don't want to hear his voice right now, but I'll just read for you the transcript of what he said in that so county on Friday. Every day I come to the White House, people are thanking me. Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir. Now, these young, beautiful girls, these young, beautiful girls in the White House. They come in.

Now, I'm not supposed to say beautiful, but what the hell?

These young, these gorgeous, these young, beautiful girls. They want to be safe, and they come. Mr. President, I speak to you, yes. Thank you, sir. Thank you.

I said, what? Why are you thanking me, sir, because a year and a half ago I was afraid to leave my apartment. I was afraid to open the door. And now I walk to the White House every morning and I have absolutely no fear. Thank you, sir.

Now, Donald Trump's own former White House counsel, the main White House lawyer under Trump's first term, Ty Cobb, just said the following on ZETTO, play this clip. But the cognitive decline is real. Certainly the country can see that as these despicable memes that he posts of Obama being arrested in the Oval Office, him and a fighter plane, pouring excrement over the No King's

Day protesters, his phrase yesterday, and criticizing El Sayed, who was the primary winner in the Michigan Senate race, the kind of things that basically have drained the dignity from the offices of the president and demeaned our country around the world. Those are signals of serious cognitive decline.

He's always been a malignant narcissist, but that narcissism now has no frontal lobe restraints

and his son, Adam, has the fact that many of these things happen between two and four in the morning, and he falls asleep in cabinet meetings and other public appearances. All of those are indicative of a serious frontal lobe illness. The last time you cry, you know, back to top cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner. Here's what he has to say about Donald Trump's sleeping all the time.

Let's play it. You know, if you come to see me in my clinic and while you're talking to me, I pass out, you'll probably find another doctor. If you had to worry that your pilot in the cockpit was going to fall asleep during landing or take off, you would probably not fly on that airplane.

Why is it acceptable in this country, at this time, in this perilous time, for the president of the United States to have a really dramatic problem staying awake during the announcement

This week of the executive order changing the vaccine policy of the United St...

Secretary Kennedy, literally screaming next to him, speaking very loudly next to him,

the president appeared to fall asleep with the head of NIH on his other side speaking, right by his ear, the president appears to fall asleep. So there are a lot of things that can cause increased daytime somnolums in people, probably the most common is sleep apnea. If the president has sleep apnea, and it's been identified by his team, it's not being

adequately treated, and it's just obvious that it's not being adequately treated, because if he is sitting at his desk, and he is not speaking for five minutes, his eyes are closed and he is not getting enough sleep, and he has to sleep.

And untreated sleep apnea can lead to really important cardiac issues, it can precipitate

or worsen cognitive disorders, and we need the President of the United States to function effectively, and it's hard to see him doing that when he falls asleep really at a moment.

And here's what he says about Donald Trump's swelling of his legs all of the time.

Let's play this clip. So the issue there was last summer, these photograph surfers, really obvious swelling in the President's legs. The problem was that three months earlier during his first annual physical exam, his physician, Dr. Barbara Bella, documented that the President had no edema, no swelling in his legs, and then just a few months later, he now has massive swelling,

which by definition would now be acute since he didn't have it before. And that's a different diagnostic concern. There are issues, there are cardiac issues, there are kidney issues that can cause that, the President's swelling has been described as chronic venison sufficiency, which is very common, and if he has that, I hope he has that, because that's really a benign issue that you see

in older people. But if indeed he didn't have any swelling three months before, and now he has this, what appears to be sort of massive swelling of his legs, that's a much bigger concern, but that has not been addressed, you know, by the widest, really none of these issues have been adequately addressed. His left hand is in bruising from vigorous handshaken. And, you know, his daytime solenoids, that was completely, you know, omitted from his

presence last physical exam. And it's a, it's a apparent finding. I mean, anyone who watches the President can see this, and it's distinctly not normal, but it's become normalized. Oh, the President is just asleep. It's not normal. And it really, it's not addressed. It's like we're all sort of lobsters in boiling water, right? It's just sort of the bar of what of what would cause people to say there's an issue has, has changed because we become sort of

in order to it. Now, Rosie O'Donnell commented as well this week. Here's what she had to say.

Let's play it. If you speak to doctors and I speak to many doctors, they will tell you that they think he is most definitely suffering from chronic heart failure, and dementia, and maybe kidney disease, he's incontinent, he can't control his bowels, his urine. He's very, very ill. And I don't know

that he's going to last till November to the elections that I believe he will try to

prevent. I really do. And if you read Project 2025, nothing is, is out of the options for them. They, what they printed there was so harrowing was so overwhelming that I thought, if people don't pay attention to this shame on them. We also heard from Democratic governor J. B. Pritzker. Here's what, Governor Pritzker told Aaron Parnas at the Midest Touch Network in the Parnas perspective. Let's play it. Do you believe based on that that the president is fit to command America's troops right now?

When you say, is he fit to command? I mean, this is a person who clearly is having mental health challenges. I mean, you can see it every day when he, you know, he sits there at that desk with, you know, 20 people, 30 people around him talking to the press because he can't apparently stand at a podium for a long period of time. This is somebody who says in name things, and, you know, you can't figure out why he's doing it for one moment to the next. He's, and then he, you know, likes to talk

about the dementia tests that he's taking like like he passed a dementia test, you know, we should all celebrate. He passed a dementia test. He thinks it's, it's some sort of IQ test. It isn't an IQ test. And all I can say is he's not passing the dementia test that all of us have for a president. He's not speaking rationally or acting rationally. So, I mean, I, I didn't want him to be

president because I never thought that he was capable of being commander-in-chief and I think he's

proving it. I will also remind you that when Donald Trump was at that NATO summit,

Yes, the one where Donald Trump left Turkey and we now find out that he was h...

container with Natalie Harp, ducking crouching because he was afraid that Iran was going to kill him.

When Trump arrived, that was Trump exiting. Let's not for, we all know that now.

Let's not forget Trump's arrival and how President Erdogan of Turkey had to hold Donald

Trump and show him where to walk. And we've seen this before. I've shown you the videos of

the summit in Alaska with Putin, where Trump couldn't walk straight. I showed you Trump with the

Japanese Prime Minister. And I'll show you over here. This is with Turkey's President Erdogan here, play this clip. And then as Ty Cobb is talking about too, all these bizarre memes that

them in Trump's up at all hours, just posting these bizarre memes of him in George Washington,

of AI memes of him as a pirate, AI memes of him, you know, just the strangest, most arranged

stuff in the world. Anyway, hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers and thanks everybody for
