Wait, did they edit an interview? Did they not air every second?

I heard that’s grounds for a multimillion lawsuit

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

If you see any business owners belittling SNAP recipients for accepting government money to get through tough times, maybe look them up on @propublica.org's PPP Loan Tracker to see if they got any of the $793B in bailout money (96% of which was forgiven)

Meanwhile, I got an SBA loan for $11,000 that had to be paid back—with interest.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

“I’m a law-abiding citizen who never thought I’d be of such interest that the U.S. government would use my tax dollars & yours to try to send me to prison…[after being] manhandled by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent trying to remove my phone from my hand.”

If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

I’m really starting to suspect that most of the tech bros haven’t actually read Tolkien, as they certainly don’t understand it.

The gentle hobbits save the “hard men” of Gondor, largely through compassion and selflessness. Not the other way around. The Christian parable is barely hidden!

NEWS: Trump administration’s Chicago immigration raids are coming to a city near you as Homeland Security sidelines old ICE leadership. “What we’re seeing now is what the rest of the nation can expect. This is the new model.” Our story on what that means www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/02/b...
Border Patrol’s strong-arm tactics are the new norm in Chicago as Trump moves to sideline ICE leadership

Important NYT reporting wrecking the dimwitted pundit claim that Trump's ICE raids aren't a problem for Trump/GOP. Shockingly, it turns out raising the "salience" of immigration via attention to Trump's lawlessness appears to actually benefit Dems:

Trump deported Iranian Christians with open asylum claims for religious persecution four weeks ago.

He expelled other Iranian Christians, including children, to Panama in February.

The Border Patrol op in Evanston made many headlines on Friday (as it should have), but please note that none of this is new. Feds have been devastating the west burbs for nearly two months now. These communities do not have equivalent wealth and media infrastructure; a lot doesn't break through.

Some context to the viral videos:

Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units.

They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.

Considering its extreme scarcity, its provenance, and its immaculate condition, the Lincoln Bathroom's now-destroyed #Vitrolite walls—original to the 1949-51 Truman reconstruction—were considerably more valuable than Trump's common marble-by-the-yard.

I gotta be real, I did not suspect we would reach "roving mobs of white folks chanting "shame" at ICE" within 9 months, and it really feels like a sign of how much more horrifying it must be on the ground than those of us not there can even imagine.
