!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

Just within the past hour, nearly a dozen YouTube accounts have posted the pulled 60 Minutes CECOT story. CBS and Google can keep trying to take them all down, but it's sort of pointless now.

Just watched the whole 60 Minutes CECOT episode. It's a pretty standard segment for 60 Minutes, taking something that's been reported on in other publications and formats and telling it to a wider audience with first person, on camera accounts. It's not earth shattering, but it is newsworthy.

Bingo card: 1. like never seen before 2. Biden's fault 3. Hoax 4. tariff 5. Somalia 6. spittle from mouth

It was physically impossible for that boat to reach anywhere close to the United States, even before it was a flaming upside-down wreck, and Tom Cotton knows that. He's not that stupid, he just thinks everyone else is. This kind of dishonesty is inseparable from egotistical arrogance.

❗️RETWEET if you stand with President 🇺🇦Zelensky!

THREAD A few days ago I met an elderly grandma released from ICE detention after 7 months. She was sobbing and distraught because her two daughters (brought to the U.S. as children) were deported to Mexico.

We flight trackers saw a slowdown in ICE flights earlier this week that we thought might be because of the government shutdown. No such luck. A round-up of the week: hardghistory.ghost.io/this-week-in...

Random street in North Phoenix.

They treated the domestic terrorist lady a hell of a lot nicer than they did the naked children she had zip tied and thrown into the backs of vans.

“We didn’t have a credible or effective U.S. representative in that country. We had a mouthpiece for the government of El Salvador,” Tim Rieser, a longtime Senate foreign policy aide, said about Johnson’s time as U.S. ambassador to El Salvador.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Not a hard choice on which side to support: protect healthcare and working people or side with mass permanent layoffs.

Finally some truth in advertising. #DonaldTrump #ICE

8/ If you have tips about new ICE enforcement tactics in courts, my colleagues and I want to hear from you. Reach out to me on Signal (tilleckert.90) or via propublica.org/tips.

Apparently, the testimony of 40 minors was not enough to convince then U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta (later a Trump appointee) to prosecute Jeffrey Epstein. This is one of the biggest cover-ups of our generation. @oversightdemocrats.house.gov won't stop until the truth comes to light.

EXCLUSIVE: Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

Platner: I think Collins has tried to create this charade in which she’s always the moderate voice in the room. But that’s nonsense, and everybody knows it’s nonsense. Susan Collins does not represent the interests of working Mainers

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

BREAKING: Debbie Robinson, the grandmother of Tyler Robinson, who killed Charlie Kirk: “My son, his dad, is a Republican for Trump. Most of my family members are Republican. I don’t know any single one who’s a Democrat.”

AOC: Whether it is a member of congress, whether it is the President to assume and assert and cast blame when the FBI has failed to even apprehend the assailant, is absolutely an irresponsible action.

Get 'em @governor.ca.gov

People from all over are showing up for DC. This is not a moment. It’s a movement. We are united in our demands. We are all DC! #FreeDC

BREAKING: FBI has released photos of classified documents found in John Boltons bathroom! Wait… wut? Oh, that’s not Boltons bathroom? My bad.

I didn’t have an inappropriate relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and I knew nothing of his crimes. It’s all right here in this redacted transcript of an interview my lawyer conducted with an alleged perjurer right before she was moved to a nicer prison.

📍 𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐏𝐀𝐋𝐌 𝐁𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇, 𝐅𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐀: An 18-year-old U.S. citizen secretly recorded Border Patrol and state troopers using tasers and neck restraints during a stop, even after he identified himself. Agents later bragged about bonuses and joked about their tactics. #AbuseofPowerWatch

If the line prosecutor was fired, and there were no FBI agents in the interview, and the only people there were Blanche and Maxwell, WHO is your source and WHY do you consider it credible?

And they want to open more of these hellholes.

It truly does. And we know who it is.

He didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t resist. He simply asked a question—and for that, they smashed his window, stripped him of his dignity, and shattered his sense of safety. This is what “law and order” looks like in DeSantis’s Florida under Trump’s second term: brutality without cause,

EXCLUSIVE: ICE may have secretly done more third-country removals than previously known Flight data from private jets contracted by ICE show a spike in activity to 13 countries targeted for third-country removals. 👀I've been working on this for two months. hardghistory.ghost.io/exclusive-ic...

Fuck. I’ve been to Eswatini, Africa’s last absolute monarchy. Teachers were starving, wouldn’t be paid for months at a time and were afraid to speak to me. Meanwhile Mswati III lives a life of luxury and takes another underage wife.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

Exactly. Few know Collins’ MO better.

This may be a while. “Byrd bath” not complete so text is not final. Major issues still disputed among Republicans. House not happy and likely making demands.

BREAKING: 1 in 4 nursing homes say they will be forced to close if Republicans pass Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. No grandma should be kicked out of her nursing home so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island.

If your response to this video is, “That’s what I voted for”— Fuck you. Fuck you very much. You’re heartless.

whoa! (gift link so you can read without the paywall) www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/u...

Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism. When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless. Understand what's going on.

really great that an Iranian terrorist cell can simply order vests from amazon, dress up like masked ICE agents and walk into any building in the country to plant a bomb… and nobody would stop them. really great.

Ward Sakeik is married to an American, has a pending green card application, owns a home in Texas, and has never been to Israel-Palestine. Why did ICE arrest her on her honeymoon and try deporting her to a country she's never seen? My latest for FWST: www.star-telegram.com/opinion/brad...
