This segment aired on CBS in Canada. Our Canadian friends have shared extensively, to let American people know what their administrative stooges are up to. Thanks Canada!

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.

“You have arrived in hell.”
That’s what the CECOT director allegedly told immigrants.
Human Rights Watch said
“Detainees were subjected to constant beatings and other forms of ill-treatment, including some cases of sexual violence”
This is what CBS doesn’t want you to see.
