Leak it and spread it. Someone at 60 Minutes has to have a spine...anyone?

Archer@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 23d (1 reply)

The ones with spines have all been fired

For anyone out of the loop, this isn't a joke.

They actually did fire a ton of people, and others still quit.

Bari Weiss is evil and working on destroying the U.S.

Someone at the White House is tapping themselves on the back for the effective censorship

Calling CBS News "News" is now just like calling Fox News "News". Just Faux News with a different name.

Ron Wyden is one of a handful of senators who has spent his many years on Capitol Hill actively working for the betterment of his constituents and the country. His report is the result of several years working to get access to Epstein's financial records, not just for the public but to investigators who already have the legal right to see the full, unredacted versions but are actively being blocked by Blanche at the DoJ and Bessent at Treasury.

Meanwhile, Bari Weiss is a person whose resume does not begin to support her appointment, who seems to have failed upward, and whose tenure at CBS has been marked by the departures of veteran reporters and producers all saying she has no real interest in reporting news and uses her position to scupper anything critical of the administration.

Who to believe, hmm. 🤔

Wyden is one of the reasons I'm proud to be an Oregonian. He's not perfect but he at least tries.

I am genuinely envious. My senator is one of the most widely reviled.

(Even more unfortunate is the fact that I can say that without even coming close to doxxing myself.)

The coverup continues.

especially with Todd Blanche at the helm of the DOJ, the Epstein stuff will be practically illegal to mention publicly

See B.S. Money talks and bullshit walks.
