Bari Weiss yanking a 60 Minutes story is censorship by oligarchy | Margaret Sullivan
Weiss ought to cut her losses, green-light the piece, and try to start acting like an editor – not like a cog in the machine of authoritarian politics and oligarchy

What it will NOT mean is that suddenly the Roberts Court will have moderated. It is not moderating. It’s pursuing its own antidemocratic agenda to perpetuate Republican power well beyond his own time in office, and sides with Trump when his own empowerment and the issues he creates serve that agenda

It begins with a "you may recall" summary of the deportation to el Salvador. Describes the admin's claim that it could deport the men without due process

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public
Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.
