Trump tears into '60 Minutes' after segment with whistleblower Bright
The Hill ^ | 05 17 2020 | John Bowden

President Trump took aim at CBS News and its flagship news magazine program, "60 Minutes," on Sunday after the program interviewed whistleblower Rick Bright, former head of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).

In a tweet, the president excoriated CBS and its "third place anchor, @NorahODonnell," whom he accused of "doing everything in their power to demean our Country, much to the benefit of the Radical Left Democrats."

"Tonight they put on yet another Fake “Whistleblower”, a disgruntled employee who supports Dems, fabricates stories & spews lies. @60Minutes report was incorrect, which they couldn’t care less about. Fake News!" he tweeted.

"This whole Whistleblower racket needs to be looked at very closely, it is causing great injustice & harm. I hope you are listening [Sen. Susan Collins.] I also hope that Shari Redstone will take a look at her poorly performing gang. She knows how to make things right!" Trump added. Redstone is the chairwoman of ViacomCBS.

I listened to some of Bright’s testimony on CSPAN. He came across as petulant, weak, wimpy, self-important ( he even referred to himself as “one of the world.s greatest scientists”), and he obviously had Democrat blood flowing through his veins.

Would that be a “Manly Man”, as in the old British Navy or the Village People?

I guess if you can blow smoke, you can be a whistleblower.
