Looks like CBS 60 Minutes has another major new editing and now a censorship controversy on its hands.
Tom Homan, former acting ICE director under Trump, says 60 Minutes made massive edits & censored its 2-hour intvw w Homan because it had a biased agenda to attack Trump about deportations & to protect Biden-Harris. Homan says 60 Minutes came into the intvw w a pre-determined angle about fascism, but that it edited out what he said about deporting terrorists caught crossing and violent criminal illegal aliens and gang members.
That includes, he says, editing out his info on deporting criminal illegal aliens and gang members accused of murder, rape, armed robbery, kidnapping, sex and drug trafficking and more.
60 Minutes still has not released its transcript of its controversial interview with Kamala Harris, where it edited out her “word salads.” It has released transcripts of its interview with Trump, former AG Bill Barr & Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
Here’s Homan with us tonight on the @EveningEdit -
“First, I sat for almost two hours during a very contentious interview.”
“I went in to talk about why we need a secure border. The damage they (Biden-Harris) have done to this country, why this is such a huge national security issue.”
“Of course, most of that didn't make it to the final cut.”
Liz: “And what didn't make it to the final cut? What did they cut out.”
Tom: “About the national security threat on the border. About how many, you know, suspected terrorists
have been arrested crossing the border. People on terrorist watch lists.”
(60 Minutes) “also edited out the amount of fentanyl coming across that killed a quarter million Americans. They (edited out) a 600% increase in sex trafficking. I talked about all of this.”
“We didn't talk about, you know, the criminals and the gang members that have come across, Tren de Aragua, they didn't talk about everything that's meaningful to the American people.”
“We talked about it, but it didn't make the final cut.”
“It's almost a two-hour interview. We talked about all of that, Liz.”
He says he told them about illegal aliens “from 181 different countries” crossing, but he says 60 Minutes edited that out, too.
“But they (60 Minutes) came in with a plan. They wanted to show that this massive deportation operation was going to be inhumane. It was going to separate families.”
“It's going to be, you know, akin to the Nazis. And that's why I spent so much time with them explaining how this would be a well-targeted enforcement plan to protect this country and remove national security threats and criminal alien threats.” But all of that got edited out. @RealTomHoman@60Minutes@CBSNews@FoxNews@FoxBusiness #Border #BorderCrisis #60Minutes #Censorship #censor @realDonaldTrump@TrumpWarRoom@JoeBiden@KamalaHarris
It was fun getting to introduce @sapinker at the @mitfreespeech conference yesterday, because it gave me a chance to use this excerpt from a David Hare essay I’ve had in the back pocket for going on a decade. (Though get the spelling of his first name right, editors!)
Congrats to @mitfreespeech on an amazing conference in Cambridge yesterday!
Among the highlights?
Members of @MIT's Committee on Academic Freedom and Campus Expression briefed attendees on their work thus far.
Karl Reid, MIT's VIce President for Equity and Inclusion, led a panel highlighting promising civil discourse projects on campus.
A panel representing peer institutions shared free speech best practices from elsewhere in academia.
The brilliant @sapinker explained why universities must be preserved as the last bastions of rationality, reason, and unfettered scientific inquiry.
The legendary Harvey Silverglate, attorney, author, and co-founder of @TheFIREorg, discussed the legal and moral foundations of #freespeech in higher-ed.
We also heard from a panel of @MIT students fighting to preserve civil discourse and free speech on campus.
Wow. What a program. Look for video of these discussions coming soon from @MITfreespeech.

As this platform continues to degrade into a raging dumpster fire of villainy and vitriol, I ask you: what would you like to see from a lowly cook like me? What would you enjoy, utterly void of politics, grievances, and griping? Whatever it is, I'll try my best to do it.
"a new EBT Card plan that will subsidize subscriptions for the poor..." And just like the EBT card can't be used for cigarettes and alcohol some bureaucrat will have to maintain the list of banned subscriptions: @dbongino@Timcast@KatTimpf@prageru@TheBabylonBee@joelpollak
