I will repeat this every single day for the next three years: Any Democrat running for president in 2028 must pledge to immediately tear down/bulldoze/demolish Trump’s ballroom and fully restore the East Wing and any other piece of the People’s House Trump has or will destroy.

If it’s going to air later with just some extra interviews why is it necessary to take down all the promos? (rhetorical question)
It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now.
It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

"The jury verdict from 10 years ago contains a scrivener's error insofar as it states that the defendant was not guilty. We are changing that, nunc pro tunc, to guilty."
Yeah, no.
Yeah, no.
It is not! A “scrivener’s error” is for things like fixing typos or very minor non-material errors, not retroactively adding a deportation order that doesn’t current exist!
Is "correcting" a previous order like this a real thing?

Today’s “One First” tackles the grant of certiorari in one of the birthright citizenship cases, and then Justice Kagan’s TX redistricting dissent—“yet another warning about the majority’s seeming willingness to do … whatever it wants, at least where rulings on emergency applications are concerned.”
196. Justice Kagan's Texas Redistricting Dissent
As unsurprising as the Supreme Court's intervention in the Texas redistricting case may have been, Justice Kagan's dissent is still a telling indictment of another emergency ruling that lost its way.
