To be clear, the FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime over a FIVE DAY PERIOD last March. And yes, part of it was to find and redact Trump's name. I spoke to sources who reviewed the files for the FBI and DOJ and wrote about it here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

Outrageous thing to say.
US Attorney Jeanine Pirro: "There's a part of me that thinks the left is disappointed that the National Guard didn't shoot someone ... they should thank God that President Trump is the president."

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean
TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting
Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

I despise these people. They soil this nation with their crimes and depravity. And when responsible representatives of the people are elevated to power once again, we must demand accountability. No forgiving and forgetting. History needs its examples. Indictments. Public hearings. Jail.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

Shouldn’t CBS be, like, covering current events/reporting news in a fact-based manner? It’s not an opinion page.
