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

Unethical, dishonest, garbage @cbsnews @60minutes. We see you gaslighting like Goebbels & pandering like RT does for Putin. 🛑 Stop it. My dad served in WWII in🇫🇷 & your #collaboration w/DJT & his Nazi regime is corrupt & dangerous… #Nazis dressed in suits, like lipstick on a pig, are still Nazis! 📣

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.

Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

Yes, I care greatly about the outcome of the midterms, but if you’re not feeling urgency to speak out and push back every day between then and now, you’re missing the gravity of this moment.

1976 on, I walked by original punks on my way to Chelsea School of Art. They would hang out in groups. Latex, lots of safety-pin piercings, towering Mohawks, makeup & chains. All near Mayfair. It was a jarring intentional contrast. I wish I’d focused my art on their counter-culture fashion+influence

Good morning, @bsky.app and #CatsOfBluesky
I decided to pop over the pond to hang in punky Camden, the Greenwich Village of London. If you're there, say hello.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

Apparently WH accelerated the permit process. Some reporting on this today on MSNBC. The WH has tried hard to prevent photos being taken. Clearly, they don’t want the Landmarks Commission & public to see what they’ve actually done. Now we know.

This is an important and infuriating read, because it will only get worse. I am waiting for ICE to come down hard on people in NJ, once the election is over. If @mikiesherrill.bsky.social doesn't win, it is going to get bad here; it will be bad even if she does win! #MikieSherrillforGovernor #BlueNJ

There are at least 170 incidents where ICE held US citizens against their will.
This includes 20 children, including two with cancer. That includes four who were held for weeks with their undocumented mother and without access to the family’s attorney until a congresswoman intervened.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

#Missouri #MO You have a choice & it’s clear as a bell who cares about you. But, first, check your voter registration regularly. Republicans are purging voter rolls, eliminating voting drop boxes, closing or moving poll locations…to suppress your vote.

A resident of my district said something to me yesterday at an event in St. Charles that struck me. She’s about to lose her healthcare and she’s been trying to reach my opponent but she never answers constituents. She’s famous for that. We deserve Reps that want the job! @wellmanformo.bsky.social

Missouri deserves better. It's time to unseat Ann Wagner in MO's 2nd Congressional #mo2 #congress

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
