CBS and 60 Minutes Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi should release the pulled 60 Minutes segment on Tik Tok. That would be a meta F-U to all involved

"Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices," Sharyn Alfonsi wrote. "It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now, after every rigorous internal check has been met, is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.

"These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless."

There is only one barely-acceptable outcome of the 60 Minutes scandal:

Air the segment as approved with no edits/additions, and accompanied by an introduction from Sharyn Alfonsi explaining to the audience why the segment was delayed by Bari Weiss.

Anything short of that and 60 Minutes is ruined.

‘It’s not a part time job.’

Oof.

Scott Pelley and Sharyn Alfonsi absolutely leveled Bari Weiss at an emergency 60 Minutes staff meeting today.

Best thing about the Bari Weiss disaster is she can’t even try to save face by positioning herself as the voice of reason bringing CBS’ millennial wokes to heel. Scott Pelley is old as hell. Sharyn Alfonsi’s been doing this since the 90s.

Sharyn Alfonsi is walking the walk. I hope we have many more journalists who have this kind of courage. Reporting the "truth" of what is going on, is the most fundamental principal of what a news organization is supposed to do.

The banned 60 Minutes episode about the CECOT torture prison used by the Trump admin is now exploding across the internet. Be sure to watch so you can see the excellent reporting done by Sharyn Alfonsi & her team at 60 Minutes:
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.

Global TV (a Canadian Broadcaster), has uploaded the ENTIRE 60 Minutes episode, including the Sharyn Alfonsi segment that Bari Weiss tried to conceal.

The Streisand effect is a powerful force.

You couldn’t even fail properly, Bari.

How embarrassing.

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, even if Trump preemptively pardons everyone, including himself, almost every crime was committed in a state jurisdiction. They can still be prosecuted.

THIS SHOULD NOT SURPRISE ANYONE!

GOP adds language to the CR that allows them to sue the government for investigating them about J6. Minimum penalty: $500.000.00 per incident.
More ways the GOP steals taxpayers' money.

Arizona Rep. Adelita Grijalva has been sworn in, and she can now sign the Epstein Discharge Petition.

I love that the vote to release the Epstein files and expose Trump as a pedophile, is a Hispanic woman.💙
