This week in culture and politics was funny, borderline hilarious, if some of these events weren’t in fact real.
From artist Scott Lobaido releasing 1,000 penis-shaped balloons donning the images of political partisans involved in President Trump’s persecution to US Congress talking about adult beverages in a hearing, fake eye lashes, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shouting to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green: “Baby Girl! Don’t even play with me!” to a female US Secret Service agent on Kamala Harris’s detail fighting her superior officers while on-duty.

With all of these comical distractions going on, there is still a critical trial taking place in New York. Prosecutors in the “hush money” trial are expected to rest their case on Monday after Michael Cohen’s testimony wraps up. Yesterday, Trump attorney Todd Blanche put Cohen through the ringer, flat out calling him a “liar!” as Cohen gets a little loose with his recollection of a 1 minute 36 second phone call with Trump’s body guard over a prank-caller. Cohen alleged the call was to regarding the payment to Stormy Daniels, but, as the Daily Beast pointed out, text messages before and after that call don’t support that claim. Yes, the Daily Beast…as if this week needed more hilarity.
Even CNN’s Anderson Cooper couldn’t help but carefully tip-toe around how awful Cohen’s testimony was.
Perhaps Cohen can find consolation in his prison pen-pal! According to the New York Times, Michael Cohen, the self-proclaimed “sex symbol” according to Michael Avenatti, has been cozying up to Rosie O’Donnell.
Unlike many, I have been consistent for 6 years: Michael Cohen is a liar and a total fraud/narcissist who cares only about himself. And let us not forget about @womenforcohen and the 700+ ridiculous posts he fabricated in an effort to paint himself as a brilliant attorney, sex…

The New York Times reported that Rosie texted Michael Cohen on Monday before the trial: “breathe – relax – tell the truth – u got this – i love u.” An hour later, she texted him “Ur doing great.”
Cohen reportedly responded, “Thank you and truly love you.”
Sometime during his incarceration, Rosie said that she got his inmate number and sent him a letter. A six-page long letter. The NYT reported:
