We’ll never forget the lives we lost on September 11, 2001. Let’s continue to honor their memories, and the courage of our first responders who put themselves in harm’s way.

Ed Martin, Trump's "weaponization czar" and our Russia problem.
"Not surprisingly, Martin says that his key assignment as weaponization czar will be to punish those who investigated Trump's very real connections to Russia."

BREAKING: 60 Minutes displays true journalistic bravery by preparing to air a segment covering Donald Trump's corrupt targeting of law firms and political enemies — despite his ongoing lawsuit against their parent companies.

If Trump thought that he'd terrified them into silence, he was dead wrong....

"On the campaign trail, President Trump vowed to wield the power of the presidency to go after his perceived enemies. Now in the White House, Trump is using executive orders to target some of the biggest law firms in the country that he accuses of 'weaponizing' the justice system against him," the episode description reads.

Correspondent Scott Pelley will report the segment. As of last month, Trump had extracted nearly $1 billion in pro bono work from top law firms by exploiting the power of his office.

Trump has also launched a massive lawsuit against CBS News, which airs 60 Minutes, and its parent company Paramount Global over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. Trump claims that the segment was deceptively edited and amounted to "election interference."

Much to MAGA world's chagrin, that interview has since been nominated for a prestigious Emmy award in the category of "Outstanding Edited Interview."

Most experts agree that Trump's allegations are spurious and plainly designed to extract money and a free PR win from the companies. Trump has the full power of the Oval Office behind him and reports indicate that Paramount Global may simply settle with him out of court rather than take on the presidency.

The corruption is right out in the open on this story, because Shari Redstone �� the controlling shareholder of Paramount — is in the midst of trying to sell the company to Hollywood studio Skydance. To do that, she'll need permission from Trump's Federal Communications Commission.

Commentators like Matthew Belloni of Puck News have observed that Trump could be directing the FCC to withhold that permission so that he can use it as leverage in the settlement negotiations with Paramount.

In other words, if Trump gets what he wants, Redstone will get what she wants. Caught in the middle of it all is our right to a free press and the First Amendment itself.

Please retweet and ❤️ to thank 60 Minutes for standing strong against Trump — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

Enough of this Red State / Blue State nonsense.

We are one people.

And we all deserve a government of the people, by the people, for the people.

Not a government of the billionaires, by the billionaires, for the billionaires.

Important to realize that Trump’s approach to Canada and Greenland is like his approach to Ukraine. It’s not even American imperialism. It is America enabling Russian imperialism. It’s America destroying its own best alliances, cutting itself off from its own crucial bases, making a Russian nuclear first strike on the US easier, opening Arctic territories that were once safe to Russian expansion. That’s the one logic that makes it all make sense. There is no conception of US interests, including an imperial one, in which this makes sense.
