Bari Weiss’ two accomplishments so far are hosting an interview that she desperately wanted people to watch (but they didn’t) and trying to spike a news story that she desperately wanted nobody to watch (but they did)

MY LATEST: The “60 Minutes” we have known is dead. The fearless program that many of us grew up with was strangled by corporate titans seeking favor with the Trump White House.

“What's happening to CBS is a terrible embarrassment and if execs think they can build shareholder value by avoiding journalism that might offend the Mad King they are about to learn a tough lesson. This is still America and we don’t enjoy bullshit like this.”

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

"Bondi and company are sorely mistaken if they think breaking the law and giving Congress a middle finger will make the Epstein scandal go away."
The regime's new Epstein coverup will backfire
They're buying time but not fooling anyone.

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

“You have arrived in hell.”

That’s what the CECOT director allegedly told immigrants.

Human Rights Watch said
“Detainees were subjected to constant beatings and other forms of ill-treatment, including some cases of sexual violence”

This is what CBS doesn’t want you to see.

The person who made the decision to hold this story has never been a news reporter or a news editor. Really sickening.

Mike Johnson closed the House down early to avoid a vote on extending ACA tax credits. Nice try, Mike—all that does is give us more time to rally up support.

Trump renamed the Kennedy Center

He’s removed MLK Jr’s birthday from the National Park holidays & replaced it with his own

He’s demolished the East Wing of the White House

Now he’s threatening to withhold funding for The Smithsonian if they don’t portray a “positive view” of history
White House threatens Smithsonian funds in sweeping content review
It is not clear on what authority the administration could withhold Smithsonian funds, as President Trump tries to purge “woke” content from cultural institutions.

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?

I am furious that DOJ ignored the new federal law requiring release of the Epstein Files. I am equally angry that so many in legacy media seem not to care.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:

It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.

It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.

Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

Remember this?

James O'Keefe got Pam Bondi on video last May saying the FBI was processing “tens of thousands of videos” of Epstein “with little kids.”

Then she told reporters “There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn.”
