A prominent forensic psychiatrist flagged disturbing new signs that President Donald Trump's mental state continues to decline.

Dr. Bandy Lee, president of the World Mental Health Coalition, argued during a new episode of MeidasTouch's "The Weekend Show" that Trump's recent attempt to wrap himself up in the tragedy of 9/11 shows how "fragile he is in his sense of self."

During the recent 9/11 commemoration ceremony, Trump claimed that first responders pulled him from the rubble of one of the World Trade Center buildings. He also claimed he sent teams to help respond to the tragedy. Fact-checkers have declared both claims to be untrue.

Lee argued that Trump's claims are similar to what a toddler would do when trying to be "king or queen of the universe."

"It is abnormal and pathological when it involves a fully-grown adult, whether it is because of arrested development or because one has regressed to that state," Lee said.

Questions about Trump's mental fitness have swirled throughout his second administration. Trump has been photographed sleeping in the Oval Office during press events, and his right side has drooped in recent public appearances.

Lee noted that Trump's decision to continue lying about the events of 9/11 shows the amount of cognitive stress he's under. Polling has shown Democrats have a momentum advantage heading into the midterms, and the war in Iran continues to hurt the American economy, she noted.

Lee also pointed to the memes that Trump has posted online, especially the one of him driving a spaceship and blowing up the entire world, as "alarming indications of how endangered he feels psychologically and how he needs to fight back, and become the most powerful and dangerous person on the planet."

"That is where his mind is going," Lee said.

Lee added that Trump's mental state has put the world in an "extremely dangerous" situation because Trump may be willing to use devastating force in order to save his self-image.

"The setup that we have is that we have no way of countermanding a, fit or not ... there's no way to countermand a nuclear weapon," Lee said.

A GOP senator baffled observers Sunday when he made a wild claim during a campaign stop in Nebraska.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) traveled to the Cornhusker State to stump for Sen. Pete Ricketts (R-NE). During one part of his speech, Kennedy tried to compare Nebraska and Louisiana cuisine, which led to an admission that several observers had a hard time stomaching.

"I'm here for one reason, other than the fact that I love Nebraska," Kennedy said. "I shouldn't say this, but I love Nebraska better than sex. Not really, but I love Nebraska."

Kennedy's comments sparked a firestorm online.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) lashed out at reporters on Sunday for covering a recently released sworn complaint that made bombshell accusations against her.

The House Ethics Committee recently received a complaint that accused Boebert of maintaining a sexual relationship with her district director, Clarice Navarro Ratzlaff, and then allegedly paying her $200,000 to keep quiet once Ratzlaff threatened to file an ethics complaint. David Wheeler of American Muckrakers filed the complaint and included evidence from "House payroll records, Federal Election Commission filings, court records, and ... sources," according to Wheeler's Substack. Similar allegations were made about two other aides in the complaint.

Boebert denied the allegations on Saturday, and Ratzlaff described them as "entirely false, defamatory, and beyond ridiculous." Boebert's ex-husband, Jayson Boebert, also disputed the claims, saying they came from "bad sources."

RawStory has not independently verified the claims made in the complaint.

Boebert responded to the complaint in a new video posted Sunday on X. She described the allegations as a "smear" perpetuated by a "left-wing hack."

"No member of Congress certified in writing that his salacious attack was made in good faith to review, as required by [the Ethics committee]," she said. "And it's evident that you did not even bother to look up House Ethics Committee rules that clearly state that the committee can't accept new complaints within 60 days of an election. That's right, Ethics isn't even allowed to accept this garbage."

Boebert also claimed that her staff members had been "under attack" since news about the complaint broke last week.

"This is more filthy garbage that reaches beyond me, into the homes of people who have dedicated years of service to Coloradans alongside of me," she added. "I know that you're more than willing to attack me and shame my household, but this is different and you crossed a line."
