Canada is sovereign. Mexico is sovereign. These are not hard concepts. Putin told Trump that if he shanked his own brother, others would fear him. He never counted on his brother shrugging it off and coming into the boards elbows-up.

Fantastic piece putting the Bari Weiss Experiment in perspective
As it happens, I have experience with high-level government demands to stop an explosive, accurate story from running, and I also have experience with 60 Minutes spiking a story I was involved in, so I have thoughts about the travesty at CBS. If you want some journalism anecdotes, here are a lot:

Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

OPINION: If anyone doubted that the rich would use their control of the media to push their agenda and silence dissent, CBS removed it with its decision to censor the scheduled 60 Minutes broadcast on CECOT prison.

An unlabeled, 12-second video from the most recent DOJ Jeffrey Epstein files drop is circulating social media, purporting to show Epstein’s suicide in his prison cell.

But it’s actually a fake clip from 2019. Here’s how it wound up in the latest Epstein files dump.

“CBS News “60 Minutes” correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi is walking the walk… With her cherished journalistic institution threatened, and her career on the line, Alfonsi is sounding the alarm that “60 Minutes” is sliding further into an increasingly irretrievable and dark place.”

NEWS: Bill Clinton is demanding full transparency from the Trump DOJ on the Epstein files.

Clinton’s spokesman says the DOJ’s selective release suggests someone is being protected.

He calls on Trump to direct Bondi to immediately release all remaining materials referencing Clinton.

If refusing to comment is enough to kill a story, then the government now has veto power over journalism.
That’s what CBS normalized last night — and it should scare everyone.

WOW. They're not going to air their special on CECOT. I'd like to know who made this decision, and whether the federal government had a hand in it.

This excellent PBS- Frontline documentary exposes what happened to individuals who were sent to CECOT and the abuse and horrific conditions they endured.

The Trump admin claimed they were dangerous criminals and gang members, but, the vast majority of them were never charged with any crimes.
