House Democrats are planning a Capitol Hill event that will feature a psychiatrist who will examine President Donald Trump's allegedly deteriorating mental health.
Dr. Bandy Lee — a Yale School of Medicine psychiatrist and editor of the best-selling book "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President" — will be speaking at the event and all lawmakers in Washington D.C. will be invited to attend. According to The Hill, Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY), who has previously called for Trump's impeachment, and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) will be hosting the event
"We are planning to do something where she can make a presentation to other members, so that they'll be aware of what she's been working on," Taymuth told the news outlet on Wednesday, adding that the event is anticipated to be held in July.
"We're planning to put together an event," Yarmuth told the Washington Examiner, who first broke the story. "She's calling it a town hall. We haven't actually determined the format, but it's going to be an event where she is going to present her findings, and media will be invited."
The book, edited by Lee, asserts that psychiatrists have an ethical responsibility to publicly disclose their evaluations of a dangerous sitting president.

Exactly.
The Democrats are changing a stop on a pop-psych author’s book promotion tour in to political theater.
How original.
Normally these junk science authors can only get a 3 minute spot on the morning news chat shows.
This is just so wrong to do to PT. Shame on all these “experts.”
I am becoming very tired of this rubbish from the DemocRATS and their fellow travelers.
Google ‘psychiatry in the Soviet Union’. Same exact f****ing thing.
Mentally deficient dums who live in glass houses
Definitely should NOT play with large stones!!!
He’s too productive and successful to have a real mental illness
More BS to get them in trouble. They are going to get visits in the night.
Her real name is Zelda Vermin. Dr. Bandy Lee is her stripper name.
Socialist? Communist? Gay Unitarian?
If “Dr Bandy Lee” actually had a license to practice medicine she could lose it over this stunt.
And if she doesn’t, she can and should be charged for practicing without a license.
Can a doctor really make a diagnosis and medical recommendations for a patient they have never seen? Would like to see MSNBC ask that question at their event.
> Why would we ever allow a Democrat to be President again after what they have done?
I will never again acknowledge any Democrat as the legitimate holder of any office, elected or appointed.
This sort of nonsense plays well to the insane ultra left. They however are not numerous enough to get them elected. Other, more sensible voters will see the desperate insanity of these actions.
Just more projection of the stark raving lunacy in the House of Representatives. Pelousy and her crowd are so nuts they put Planters to shame
“...they would be defining themselves by their opposition to that.”
They define themselves by prro abortion. It is not enough by they are surprised by that fact.
The democraps are desperate.
We have a Caucasian alpha male duly elected to the oval office. Their identity politics are driving them insane and out of touch with America.
Keep it up you laughable idjits!Evry time you do this sort of thing, you increase the margin by whichi your Donks party will be beaten in November of 2020.
Despite all of the vituperation and hatred from the Dems , President Trump is succeeding in an unorthodox fashion, BECAUSE you Dems are a bunch of liberal fascist obstructionists in Congress. You actually represent no one.
“If “Dr Bandy Lee” actually had a license to practice medicine she could lose it over this stunt.”
The medical profession is self regulating . If she feared losing her license, she wouldn’t be doing what she is doing. If medical ethics panels and licensing boards had any teeth they would have already warned her. How many dangerous medical professionals are removed by their peers every year. Very few.
The legal profession is the same. The concept of ethic in the legal profession is laughable. Again, very few are disbarred.
Finally academia. Dr. Lee is on the faculty of the esteemed Ivy League institution, Yale University. Likely this fountain of wisdom is banning speech by conservatives while at the same time tolerating this outrageous behavior by one of the faculty members.
If you are in the club, the club will protect you. Dr. Lee is in the club.
Why don’t they do this with Mrs. *Bubba Crinton?
