Not enough people know that the DOJ is keeping the part of Trump's IRS settlement in place that shields Trump and his family from IRS audits.
That's *extraordinarily* corrupt. Don't let it fly under the radar. https://t.co/4I2ovkLZQq
60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley brought a level of reporting excellence and a historical relationship with 60 Minutes’ audience that can’t be replaced—but for news executives courting Whitee House favor in the Trump 2.0 era, those qualities are a hindrance, not a help.

The Devil’s Punchbowl in Natchez, Mississippi, was a Civil War-era death camp. After the Civil War millions of freed Black people were funneled into concentration camps.
As the enslaved people were released from the plantations in large numbers following the Emancipation Proclamation and the advance of Union forces, Natchez became a refuge for many seeking freedom. But instead of freedom, the Union Army traps them in a concentration camp in this deep-ass pit surrounded by steep bluffs, known as the Devil’s Punch Bowl.
However, the influx overwhelmed the town’s resources. Union authorities, struggling to manage the situation, confined thousands of these ‘freed’ African Americans—men, women, and children—in a makeshift camp at a low-lying area dubbed the Devil’s Punchbowl. This natural depression was prone to flooding and offered little shelter or sanitation.
Disease started spreading, people were starving, and thousands—especially women and kids—died slow, painful deaths. Their bodies were left to rot, and the land is still untouched to this day because their remains are literally in the soil. Mass graves still hide under the town’s peach orchards.
Volodymyr Zelensky has warned Vladimir Putin that Ukraine is “very close” to producing a ballistic missile which could be fired into Russia.
The statement came ahead of talks with Sir Keir Starmer and the leaders of France and Germany over how to bring an end to the long-running war.

The rural and deeply conservative town of Froid, in the northeastern corner of Montana, backed President Donald Trump in every one of his White House runs.
But earlier this year, when federal immigration agents detained one of the town's longtime residents, this tight-knit community pushed back.
