The fool
Trump: "We need Greenland for national protection. They have a very small population. They say Denmark, but Denmark has spent no money. They have no military protection. They say Denmark was there 300 years ago or something with a boat. Well, we were there with boats too I'm sure."

We've now had a chance to fully absorb what the White House didn’t do—and importantly tried to hide—with its production of Epstein files on Friday. I break down the tell-tale cover-up in today’s piece.

Youtube is pulling these for copyright claims, but it's still up on archive.org:
And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV.

There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

youtube removed it, but
here's the 60 minutes cecot video part 1 of 5 - recorded/uploaded by and all credit to @jasonparis.bsky.social

I just reduced background noise, chopped the 14 minutes into 3 minute segments each compressed under 100 mb for bsky's limits, cropped and rotated a few degrees for easier viewing on here

Unlike CBS News, Frontline PBS ran their report recently on stories from some of the migrants sent to the notorious CECOT prison in El Salvador. Trump & his enablers can’t erase the truth about what happened. Watch the PBS piece.

No!

Most presidents do not in fact name anything after themselves while they’re in office, because they’re not toddlers who constantly need to be the center of attention.
Has any other president named this much stuff after himself?

Share and tell CBS to air this! Sharyn Alfonsi, the veteran “60 Minutes” correspondent who reported a segment about migrants sent to the El Salvadoran torture prison CECOT, just sent a blistering letter to colleagues, sounding the alarm that Bari Weiss spiked the story for political reasons.

Instead of going through the time and tedium of subpoenas, hearings, and due process, Congress should just do as the Pentagon does: acting on a vague hunch without any evidence, declare that Pam Bondi is a "narco-terrorist" and bust some doors down.

Why would anyone risk themselves to go on 60 Minutes after this? How can viewers ever trust CBS News to report fairly on topics this White House is sensitive about?

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.
