Having to watch a bootlegged copy of a video from another country because my country censored it is making me feel as if I'm living in 1980s Eastern Germany.

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

Wait, we thought the Canadian Coalition
For “Firearm
Rights” was just a collection of peasant hunters working hard in the bush to feed their families and jolly “sport” target shooters out for a lark.
Turns out the CCFR gets funding from the gun merchants.
Merry Christmas!

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. 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. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the 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. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. 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. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones. We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn

They are all protecting the Pedophile in the White House. We told you, there was no way Trump would release the Epstein Files with his name in them. One thousand FBI agents spent time redacting these files. Bondi and the DOJ has covered up the truth while defying court orders. Time to impeach them.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Instead, universities are inviting it in, so their AI is training for free, and teachers are using it to write their lesson plans. Without verifying the sources. How can we tell students not to write papers with it, if we are teaching with it?

From a focus group of Gen Z Republicans. (www.city-journal.org/article/manh...)

Tell me again about how Zohran Mamdani is the big threat to Jewish thriving in the US today.
"Moderator: What do you think of Adolf Hitler? Ashley: I think he was a great leader, to be honest. I think what he was going for was terrible, but I think he showed very strong leadership values. Andrew: I’m in favor of a strong executive. I think we should have a stronger executive branch. I don’t think we should be killing people or doing mass genocide, obviously, but I do think we should have a strong executive. I feel like one of the biggest problems Trump is running into right now is all these little courts, they want to throw up little blockages against everything he’s trying to do, whether it be his tariffs or deporting people. So I’m very pro-strong executive, strong leader, strong man. I support national sovereignty, and Hitler was a nationalist. He was like, we have to take Germany back for Germans. And I feel like we should do that in America. We should take America back for our native population. So, I’m not an expert on Hitler by any means, but as far as nationalism is concerned, I’m all that. Brice: I myself am actually Jewish, ancestrally. I’m Christian by faith, but Jewish by blood. I’ve actually read Mein Kampf. The end conclusions that he came to: absolutely abominable. But I strangely understood where he was coming from as far as wanting to improve the national state of Germany."

Interesting, our former PMJT made a change that the banks cannot charge up to $50 anymore for overdraft fees/charges in March 2026, there will be a fee cap of $10 here, and no more than one per day and if the overdraft is less than $10, they can't charge anything. #Canada

King's Landing, Christmas Village Aglow
A small evergreen tree decorated for Christmas with strung popcorn, cones to be filled with candy or other small gifts, candles, and angels sits atop a covered table. Bright outdoor lights cast their blue hue on the window behind the tree. A window decorated for Christmas with antique toys and other items. Green garland strung with white beads and plaid bows hangs in the window with lights hung below and reflecting in window. A lit handmade lamp sits amid greenery and pine cones. The lantern shines in the dark with its beautiful stars and other patterns. It casts shadows on the wallpapered wall behind it. A church is pictured with homes near and in the distance around it. All are decorated with Christmas lights and shine brightly in the December night. A fence is pictured in foreground with a strand of blue lights with a gold set hanging beneath them.
