Revenge Addiction And What You Can Do To Stop It

Dr. James Kimmel Jr. discusses revenge addiction, which he says could perhaps be the most important health issue in America today.

"What neuroscience, brain imaging fMRI studies are showing is that a grievance triggers a craving in the brain for retaliation for justice in the form of revenge." Dr. James Kimmel Jr.

Jury Interpretation and Challenges

Dr. Phil and Rod discuss the importance of how the jury interprets the evidence presented. Rod explains that the jury should only hear admissible evidence relevant to the case and not be influenced by prejudicial information.

Political Candidates and Disclosure

Rod clarifies that political candidates are not legally required to disclose negative information about themselves. He stressed that paying someone for their silence is legal, underscoring issues in the prosecution's argument that Trump's actions constituted election fraud.

Business Records and Election Fraud

The discussion shifts to the specifics of business records and the prosecution's attempt to frame Trump's reimbursement to Cohen as election fraud. Rod explains that creating business records for a legal act does not make it illegal, challenging the foundation of the prosecution's case.

Exhibits 35 and 36

Unanimity and Jury Deliberation

Rod points out a critical issue in the jury's decision-making process. He questions the judge's instruction that allowed jurors to convict without unanimous agreement on the specific crime, suspecting it might be a strong point for appeal.

Post-Summation Instructions/ Limiting Instructions: "Neither the fact of the FEC investigation, Mr. Cohen and his attorney’s responses or the fact that Mr. Cohen pleaded guilty, constitutes evidence of the Defendant’s guilt and you may not consider them in determining whether the Defendant is guilty or not guilty of the charged crimes."

Harvey Weinstein Case Comparison

Rod compares Trump's trial to the Harvey Weinstein case, highlighting that prejudicial evidence not related to the charged conduct led to Weinstein's conviction being overturned. He predicts similar grounds for appeal in Trump's case.

New York Court of Appeals

Allowing Prejudicial Evidence

Dr. Phil and Rod go over what they think are multiple prejudicial evidence aspects allowed in Trump's trial by Judge Merchan. This includes allowing cross-examination on unrelated issues and admitting co-conspirator pleas, which Rod argues should be grounds for reversal.

Dr. Phil’s Final Thoughts and Reflection on Weaponization of Justice

This weaponization of our great institutions, the FBI, the Justice Department, and individual State’s similar institutions, will lead to one of two outcomes.

One is more of the same from the other side, tit-for-tat.

That may seem deserved, but it is not the right way forward for America.

The other is what I call on you to demand from your politicians today: an end to this craziness in order to save the soul and sanity of our country.

The Pope has actually given us the right approach in his new book, when he says:

‘We are all brothers and sisters, and there must be no resentment among us. For any war to truly end, forgiveness is necessary. ”

That is true of any war including our current cultural war.

We need our Justice Department to return to the business of meting out justice, and not running the political agendas of those currently in power, blindly seeking convictions, warranted or other wise and attacking political opponents. That requires a few very important things from each of you, from all of us — FINDING YOUR VOICE, FORGIVENESS, and FOCUS ON THE WAY FOWARD.

“Forgive them for they know not what they do.” FORGIVENESS AND AT THE SAME TIME REQUIRING BETTER.

We are not some “banana republic” for God sakes! What are we going to do next have a “Putin Poisoning Posse?” AND just start finding political opponents foaming at the mouth at home not so “mysteriously” dying in their Lazy Boy recliners? We are better than that, we MUST better than that.

I don’t like what I see happening in our country. This kind of thing is exactly why I launched Merit Street Media and wrote We’ve Got Issues!

I don’t like seeing the weaponization of our justice systems, agencies and powerful government actions that frankly just make my skin crawl for ALL of us and for my grandchildren..

And let’s be honest, this is SO NOT JUST ABOUT TRUMP! If you let your hatred for Trump compromise your ability to find true North on your moral compass, shame on you!

If you let your disgust for Biden make you blind to the inevitable consequences of PURSUING revenge then God help the children who will inherit the dystopian nightmare we create.

We need leaders who will pledge to end this vicious cycle RIGHT NOW and return us to that safe place where our institutions are no longer bastardized and weaponized but rather simply serve their intended purpose.

We have serious problems to solve and it will take serious people to solve them. Men and women who we all hold accountable for doing that which they were elected or hired to do. They need to know we are watching and their positions are privileges not legacies. They work for us, until they don’t.

I have said, “I am not into politics.” I claim no expertise nor do I seek any. I don’t advocate voting for one candidate over another.

I stay in my lane addressing human behavior, individually, collectively, culturally and am focused on how we can have maximum control in our lives and turn this Ship of State called America in the right direction and get her back on a track of which we can all be proud. That is my mission and this is a call to action to save our collective soul and sanity.

This is also a call to redemption, healing and forgiveness that leads to peace among us all which is the most important gift we can share in our dangerous world.

The current administration could and should do the right thing, dismiss even now, post conviction of a political opponent, all such “lawfare,” and pledge to return to the normal functioning of a government rightly run.

God Bless you all and God bless these United States of America.
