Wow, "60 Minutes" at one time was one of the few programs you could watch on network television to get a factual account of the important news stories.
Recently, it lacks any punch and the stories aired seem like fluff pieces.
After I read this article, I know why.

“60 Minutes” just suffered a severe blow to its credibility. Now one of its own correspondents fears the program is being “dismantled,” and some employees are threatening to quit.

So now the Trump Administration is just outwardly racist!?
Between this and slamming Somali Americans, how is this okay? We are a diverse nation. Sweeping it under the rug is not only degrading and dismissive to minorities, it misrepresents who we are as a nation!

THE SECOND CIVIL WAR HAS BEGUN! With what is happening in Texas along with Trump taking legal action against his supposed foes (most all Democrats), we are there! Several of our forefathers warned against the creation of political parties. This is the result!

The dehumanization of the Latino population is sickeningly rampant now thanks to President Trump and his followers. Free speech works both ways. If there are those that think they can joke about pain & death of human beings then we can answer back criticizing their lack of respect for human life!

On Tuesday, Iranian asylum-seekers who fled persecution for their Christian faith were detained by ICE in Los Angeles.
The arrests add to a growing number of church members taken despite lawful status.

In addition to kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance, cutting taxes for the wealthy, and adding trillions to the deficit, other parts of Trump’s Budget are also harmful and unpopular.
We need to make sure more people learn about them.

Yes, I am single and straight! No, I am not interested in an "online relationship!" I am also quite familiar with all the scams including can't miss investment opportunities. If you want to follow me, that's great! I just hope you are doing so because of my interests and posts. #avoidingscams

President Trump is ignorant of the intricacies of war. You don’t bomb military sites in a country and THEN demand they negotiate for peace. ESPECIALLY since we know how they will respond after retaliating every time they have been attacked by Israel. #Politics #Iran #Trump #Israel #Attacks
