I need you gullible ass dummies buying Platner’s bullshit to do better than calling Dems who recognize he’s a pathological liar MAGA. Project much? You look silly AF. Since you’re willing to let DV slide, I can’t wait to see what you say when he’s accused of rape. And he will be.
That's why everyone should be pressuring/screaming at @katz_morris and @RebeccaKKatz.
Platner clearly doesn't give a shit about his future but his DC Consultants are obviously going to want to continue to have candidates. Everything is on them.
The fact that they raided Micheal Jackson’s home and found hundreds and thousands of tapes and archives this man kept… and they STILL found nothing!! Literally they found no evidence of criminal conduct or illegal materials on any of the confiscated media tapes! People Suck so Bad !
Bilton's termination letter says Pelley chose "ambush" over "civil, private conversation" and showed "remarkable incivility."
Pelley said true things in a staff meeting. The staff applauded. Bilton left the room. Then fired him for cause.
The most decorated correspondent in 60 Minutes history, 37 years at CBS, terminated because he wouldn't take his objections to dinner privately and pretend in public that everything was fine.
That's the letter. That's what it says. Read it again.
I sat down with @HunterBiden, and he called himself the most recognizable addict in the world. Then he told me what he found in that — a reservoir of strength most people never get to see. The full interview is linked in the comments.
"If they get something so totally wrong about a piece of art, creating a story that is not true, can you imagine what else is made up."
Nate Giorgio, the artist whose painting was featured in the Netflix doc, calls them out for misrepresenting his work to push a false narrative about MJ
I will never forget this. He waited until the day he died to speak up. It’s so sinister. I hope guilt sits so heavy on his chest that he can barely breathe.
Nick Bilton walked into the 60 Minutes newsroom four days after Bari Weiss fired the people who built the show. He tried to pretend he didn't know about the firings. Scott Pelley, in front of the remaining staff, would not let that stand.
"She loves 60 Minutes," Bilton said. "She's murdering 60 Minutes," Pelley said back. "She does not love this place. She was brought in to kill it - and she's doing exactly that."
One of Weiss's lieutenants kept interrupting to say Pelley was being rude. Pelley kept going.
JVL's framing is the right one. The corrupter depends on the existing institution being too polite to say the obvious thing out loud. Christopher Wray resigned quietly to "preserve the integrity of the FBI." John Kelly gave print interviews after he left. Thom Tillis, John Cornyn, Mitch McConnell, Jim Mattis, Bill Barr - all of them saw it. All of them objected privately. None of them said it in the room where it was happening, to the person doing it, while the cameras were still running.
Pelley said it in the room. To the person's face. In front of witnesses. While he still worked there.
That is a different thing entirely. Not a memoir. Not an anonymous source in a tell-all. Not a carefully worded statement issued after the resignation letter was already filed. The true thing, said out loud, to the people who needed to hear it, at the moment it could still matter.
Authoritarianism counts on politesse. It counts on people deciding the fight isn't worth the awkwardness, the career risk, the label of being difficult. Scott Pelley decided it was worth it. The republic needs more of that calculation to come out the same way.
We seriously need to have a conversation about out of state donations propping up controversial leftist candidates. The only reason Mills couldn’t keep up is b/c wealthy out-of-state leftist kept donating millions to Platner.
Now look where that’s gotten us
Problem is you can’t say you had a drinking problem and then absolutely insist you didn’t do certain bad things during that period. That’s not how a drinking problem works!
