Bari Weiss strikes again - 60 Minutes segment spiked





Hours before 60 Minutes was set to air a story on deportees who were sent by the Trump administration to prison in El Salvador, describing “brutal and torturous conditions,” 60 Minutes announced that it has pulled the segment and will air it in the future.

Fortunately we know some of what happened thanks to reporting from people like Pablo Torre..

Epstein tapes will be released in the future. republicans will stop lying in the future. Republicans will never stop whining. You can count on that. And, of course, jd Vance will continue to be the gutless moron who wishes everybody loved him like he loves him. So we got that going for us

Pablo Torre is one of the few good people who still appear on ESPN occasionally.

Only reason for trump to order the punks at CBS to pull the show. Because he can’t handle the truth. He wants his supporters stupid and spoon feed.

Keep it always in the forefront My friend, REPUBLICANS IN WASHINGTON ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERY OUNCE OF CRIME AND CHICANERY PRODUCED BY THE CONVICTED FELON THEY ARE SUPPORTING. Their supporters are aiders and abetters. Soon sniveling garbage like Josh Hawley and Roger Marshall and the jerk from Oklahoma and the rest of the monsters will walk sheepishly to the podium and state, I was only following orders.
