It’s the year 2025 and Americans have to watch a bootlegged international version of a news program because it was censored here in our country to protect a criminal president.

For the first time in history, women aren’t marrying men for financial stability or material things, just based on their character. Which is why so many Republicans are single, intensely hate women, and/or only pursue young women who recently obtained their drivers license.

For those of us warning about democracy's potential disintegration, the decision by CBS to pull an exhaustively researched 60 Minutes piece, critical of Trump, is another red alert moment.
When truth disappears as the media gets coopted by the regime, there's little left.

60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi sharply summarizes the appalling decision of Bari Weiss not to run her CECOT story: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”

REMINDER: CBS paid Trump $16 million as "compensation" for 60 Minutes interview of Kamala Harris bc Trump didn't like it. In reality $16 million was a bribe to get Trump to approve Larry Ellison buying CBS. Now the Ellison's have Bari Weiss in place to kill any stories Trump won't like #oligarchy

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.

I don’t care that Bill Clinton is in the images.
If he did wrong. Arrest him. Put him on trial. If found guilty.
Throw away the key.
The fact that he’s a Democrat means nothing.
The fact that he could be a pedo. That means something.
That’s the difference.
