Aw, the poor babies! I suppose they want a two-week, all-expenses paid trip to a conference in Cancun where they can lie in the sun and drink fresh smoothies on the taxpayer's dime.

They will find a "therapist" in Cancun and their trip(s) will be funded by the congressional golden healthcare plan.

With all the goodies these people get at our expense, I suspect this will insure a monthly check for the rest of their lives to help them deal with trauma of it all.....

Yup, their insurance probably pays them for experienced trauma. Hope Steve Scalise is getting his money out of it.

I’m sure many will get a new prescription delivered daily on the taxpayers dollar. Weed is legal there, and I’m sure any drug they want can be had within the hour...this just makes the pharma legal.

we just saw the article on Columbia professor regularly doing heroin. I’d bet over fifty percent of politicians and their staff members are doing illicit drugs, or abusing pharmaceuticals. Our old congressman was a coke head...got away with it for his entire career.......An old friend of my wife’s was aware firsthand.

What a rotting pile of horseshit. This is nothing more than optics. Cluster B Personality Disorders with all of them. Always perpetuating being the victim is all they have and know. It's how they get ahead in life. Or try to anyway. The good news is that they already hate themselves. Insecure little bitches is what they really are.

That’s exactly right.

Disordered, whining pond scum.

Weed is legal in DC up to an ounce I believe. And yes, lots and lots of drugs get taken in the Congress. Weed, coke, highballs, special K and more than a few doing meth. Cops turn a blind eye to it apparently. The capitol heights neighborhood behind the capitol reeks of skunkweed on any given day anyway.

And these congressional and staffer p*ssies doing the group therapy session thing? Sounds like a preamble to either a class action suit against the govt. for failing to protect them, or a REAL stretch of a suit claiming mental harm and injury. They should be lucky the people who breached the capitol weren't armed and not in possession of their mental faculties that day.

As an aside; why aren't the protesters at the capitol given the same opportunity for mental health counseling? All those protesters pepper sprayed and brutalized by DC police, capitol police and the (armed) National Guard troops-I would think there's some trauma among these folks as well. These folks are being arrested and held in jail, what about their mental health?

Snowflake drama, and just looking for the sympathy vote from the sheeple. Oh looky, those bad conservatives traumatized me, I need your vote to stay in office.

Well it seems to me that as good citizens we just can't sit idly by while the upset or traumatized DC politicos have to suffer! I think that we should push for them to step aside until they can run again to be elected to fulfill their duties! what a shame that these poor souls have to endure this when adults are ready to step in and make the country great once again, damn shame I tell you.

My first thought as well. They may be preparing for a class action law suit. Maybe they intend to file against Trump in civil court to try to hurt him financially. You have to prove damages in court in order to get any money awarded, and part of that involves going for all sorts of bogus medical or mental treatments when the lawsuit is BS.

more likely for pre-existing conditions. Now they found a reason for treatment.

Got to milk this one for all it's worth.

Hmm. I assume that it is more about signaling to get their I am a victim trauma badges stamped, and an effort to flesh out the narrative that they hope to see take root in the public square and survive as the version of truth told down the road: Orange man REALLY REALLY BAD he tried to insurrectionist to DEATH :rolleyes:

Not sure that i buy real emotional or mental distress, though...

I SURVIVED THE 2021 TRUMP STAMPEDE...

I think those who called it as laying groundwork for future legal action vs. DJT as well as disability claims vs. dotgov have it nailed.

If they are in fact victims of trama needing therapy, how did they not recuse themselves during a trial where they were supposedly the prosecutors or jurors.
