Expect a "revolt" among 60 Minutes staff over Bari Weiss pulling the CECOT segment at the last minute, one network insider told me. Another CBS News reporter added that a Rubicon had been crossed with this decision, which 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi called "political" and not editorial.

Schumer also disclosed that only 9,675 pages were released Friday Todd Blanche went on the Sunday shows and said “hundreds of thousands,” and corporate media repeated that number all damn day. END/

You’ll recall I told you that if Bondi violated the Epstein Files Transparency Act, it would trigger a lawsuit. That’s what Schumer’s resolution does. It directs the Senate Majority Leader to file federal civil action against the government over failure to release the Epstein files. 1/

🧊✈️ GlobalX must be so disappointed this 60 Minutes report on CECOT was spiked last night. No such thing as bad publicity, right guys?

I’m old enough to remember when CBS News would never have surrendered to a demagogic president or any other politician. Remember Edward R. Murrow?

FYI northside of Chicago, fed chopper flying northbound across Lake Michigan, maybe some more ICE bullshit incoming @unraveledpress.com

www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele... George Conway, the former conservative lawyer turned ardent critic of President Donald Trump, has filed paperwork to run for Congress in New York City as a Democrat, a source close to Conway confirmed.

It's important to note for the consultant people: Kat is tied for first place, she's raised more money in this race than anyone else, and she hasn't used Twitter in months. It's a website filled with racist AI snuff films and it's rigged against you specifically. There's no good reason to use it.

WOW. Trump's approval rating is now 36%. And I don't remember ever seeing him underwater with white people.

No comment IS a comment.

Boycott CBS.

Bari Weiss is destroying CBS.

This statement is a sick joke. US foreign policy is a sick joke, being implemented by enemies of truth, freedom & democracy - people driven by personal greed & the opportunity to exploit the suffering of others by trading US power and prestige for death & business opportunities.

Jeff Landry is a moron with zero foreign policy experience, knowledge, or qualifications. ZERO. Nothing. More insanity.

The corruption is absolutely staggering. One big money donor after another receiving direct benefits in return. Trump didn’t drain any swamps, he created a giant sewer to roll around in daily. Great reporting. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Not Joe Biden’s fault.

“Patel earlier this year pressed the FBI to purchase a new, more modern FBI jet for his use, but the proposal was abandoned over cost estimates that were between $90 million and $115 million.” www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...

This is pretext. Trump’s been obsessed w/wind turbines for decades, which began after Scotland put some in near his golf course. He sued the govt & lost, which is why he claims they cause cancer, mental illness in whales, bird extinctions, etc. Welcome to the 19th century. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump went on back to back golf club trips this weekend. These trips add up costing taxpayers millions. Why don’t Republicans cut these trips instead of Medicaid?

Even more evidence we’re in a secret Cold War with whales.

“.. The astounding haul hints at a level of transactionalism for which it is difficult to find obvious comparisons in modern American history.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Musk, an immigrant to America, called an American mayor a “traitor” for supporting other immigrants to America. Just an unmitigated asshole.

"Is this a breakup episode?" George Conway explains the legal news to Sarah Longwell one last time.

Why did CBS delete this promo and cancel this from airing in full?

Hilarious. The second any Republican publicly disagrees with Trump about something he attacks them & goes after them. Has primaried dozens. Calls Greene a traitor. Attacked Indiana Repubs. This entire movement is viciously vindictive against anyone who dares to step out of line.

This is Bari Weiss in stonewalling, chin-out, "I won't let the haters get to me" mode. Whether she gets away with it will be determined by whether Sharyn Alfonsi's colleagues at 60 Minutes and CBS News decide to fight back. Pelley, Stahl, Cooper--this decision goes on everyone's permanent record.

CNN’s @brianstelter.bsky.social reports that some CBS News employees are now threatening to quit

Please.

"If the standard for airing a story becomes, 'the government must agree to be interviewed,' then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from being an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state." Sharyn Alfonsi

COLORADO — Trump rejects a federal disaster relief request, because the state is run by Democrats. Sen. Bennet: “Trump continues to use Coloradans for political games; it is malicious and obscene.” www.denver7.com/news/local-n...

Steves purchased the property to prevent it from closing. Many homeless people had come to depend on the Lynnwood Hygiene Center, which had operated rent-free on the property since 2020. n.pr/3MKbmJH

PBS does need support after Trump pulled their funding.

PBS FRONTLINE's "Surviving CECOT" is incredible, disturbing, moving, and they didn't self censor.

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now. It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

If it’s going to air later with just some extra interviews why is it necessary to take down all the promos? (rhetorical question)

The rate of return here is crazy: for a few hundred thousand dollars, this lab produces literally billions of oysters and supports a seafood industry worth hundreds of millions. And the Trump administration is just like "fuck all that, it's wasteful spending, you're fired"

“These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.”

A huge scandal. Bari Weiss has destroyed the credibility of @cbsnews.com in record time. It’s almost impressive. Almost.

Putting a power parched non journalist — who has zero experience in investigative reporting — in charge of real reporters usually ends like this: ‘60 Minutes’ Pulled a Segment. A Correspondent Calls It ‘Political.’ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...

“It even mentions playfulness, whatever that is, nine times.” You know what kind of people consider “playfulness” (i.e., joy, creativity, connection) a foreign and imcomprehensible concept? Read more at: www.stripes.com/branches/arm... Source - Stars and Stripes

This is entirely to please Trump, who has voiced criticism of 60 Minutes under the new owners, who are the definition of rank amatuers, emphasis on rank. This Stephen Miller interview suggestion is idiotic in the context of this story and shows a startling lack of sophistication or smarts.

Gifting this article on the CECOT story in which Sharyn Alfonsi, the correspondent on the story, is reported as writing: “It [the story] is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now, after every rigorous internal check has been met, is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.”

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

Brightened my mood! 🇲🇽 🔥 🇲🇽 🔥 🇲🇽

The vast majority of people want to see this ban passed — and I'm one of them. Let's get this done.⁩

Trump says he’s appointing Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry as “special envoy” to Greenland. Landry has previously expressed support for Trump’s plan to invade Greenland.

MAGA, MAGA. www.mediaite.com/media/news/j...

Puck news confirming exactly what we all assume happened at CBS News(max) — Bari Weiss happened

Louisiana ranks 50th of 50 states in the categories of crime and the economy in a recent statistical analysis, but somehow Republican Gov. Jeff Landry has time to be Trump’s ”special envoy” to Greenland. MAGA is such a shitshow.

Turns out he is a loser..poor thing.
