CBS, now under Bari Weiss's control, has pulled their 60 Minutes program "Inside CECOT" episode that was due to air, because "it needed more reporting." The 30-second show promo video has been pulled from YouTube and set to private so nobody can watch it.
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.

Combine this with Florida’s broadly construed “stand your ground” laws and it almost seems like there’s a predilection for state sponsored killing in the sunshine state
BREAKING: The Florida Supreme Court upheld Florida’s law, making it the only state to allow juries split 8-4 to sentence people to death.

Permitting non-unanimous, divided juries to sentence people to death is unconstitutional and increases the risk of executing an innocent person.

Elon Musk’s net worth has now surpassed $600 billion, just weeks after Tesla approved his 10-year, $1 trillion pay package.

That could amount to $100 billion per year — more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks combined.

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

It seems awfully telling that Republicans were unwilling to hold this hearing publicly. It’s not like the case hinged on classified information; they’re just afraid of the public hearing what Smith has to say.

We saw the prototype of the Nero Doctrine with Twitter. The goal wasn't to make it profitable or "free." The goal was to break the one place where news broke faster than the state could spin it.

They bought the town square not to speak in it, but to burn it down so we’d have nowhere else to gather.

Same with TikTok. We were told it was a "national security" threat. But the forced divestiture wasn't about data privacy.

It was about transfer of ownership. Handing the algorithm to politically safe tech oligarchs ensures that the last algorithmic feed not under their thumb is brought to heel.
