BREAKING: Scott Pelley Just Made A Pretty Stunning Allegation.

According to Pelley, CBS leadership wanted a story about the killing of ICE protester Renée Good changed to better match Trump's version of events.

Pelley says he was told management wanted protesters portrayed as more violent and wanted Good described as driving toward the officer who shot her. He says the video evidence showed otherwise.

Then came the admission.

"There was a thumb on the scale for the president's version of events."

A veteran journalist with 37 years at CBS is alleging political pressure was applied to change the facts of a story.

That's a remarkable accusation.

LIEU: Secretary Rubio, instead of holding North Korean-style cabinet meeting where everybody goes around the room kissing Trump's ass, I'm gonna ask you to come clean with the American people. There's something wrong with Donald Trump's health or cognitive abilities. There's a reason he keep going to the hospital and they keep giving him cognitive tests. We have not seen the president in eight days. The American people deserve the truth.

RUBIO: *starts frantically making excuses for Trump*

LIEU: Just keep lying, Secretary Rubio. Just keep lying.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees that, since trump refused to rule out the slush fund, and his "acting attorney general" won't put it in writing, Congress MUST KILL THE SLUSH FUND.

Sen. Kennedy: "Not mostly dead. Completely dead."

MAJOR BREAKING: A federal judge in Washington just ruled that protesters criticizing Trump could not be forced to take down a flag reading “8647,” finding NO indication that the message could be taken as a true threat against the president’s life.

TOLD YA SO. 8647.

CNN source: Americans arrived in Laikipia Airbase yesterday as plans for US Ebola isolation facility go ahead despite court order.

Current US & Kenya governments - both Trump & Ruto administrations - have a history of ignoring court rulings they don't like

Trump is trying to use a federal court to hand himself $1.776 billion in taxpayer money—and call it a "settlement." 35 former federal judges just asked a court to reopen the case and investigate whether it was a fraud on the court. The judge responded fast. Here's what's happening: https://t.co/vW78ht42NU

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

There is no world in which this is okay.  

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney. 

His son's employment was hidden so thoroughly that his name appears nowhere on the Treasury Department website, he has no public resume, and his bar listings are outdated. 

If Alito had recused himself, the secret would have come out. He didn’t recuse himself. 

This is a clear conflict of interest, and the American people deserved to know about it. 

The federal recusal standard is clear: a justice must step aside in any case where there is a reasonable basis to question whether he or she can be impartial. A justice ruling on cases involving the department where his son works fails that test. The Treasury Department sits at the center of some of the biggest legal fights of this administration, and challenges to Trump’s $1.776 billion January 6 slush fund could be headed to the Court next. 

The Supreme Court is the only court in America with no binding code of conduct. That is completely unacceptable, and it has to change NOW. 

Congress controls the Power of the Purse, and therefore the Court’s funding. If the Court will not adopt a binding code of conduct with real recusal review on their own, I support withholding their funding until they do.

Khanna on Epstein files: Comer has made this totally partisan. He used two to three months to go after the Clintons, who haven’t been in office for 20 years, and yet he didn’t have Pam Bondi under oath. He didn’t have her testimony public. He didn’t have Howard Lutnick under oath. He didn’t have his testimony public.
