Some people just have to learn the hard way. Then there are people who just never learn. On October 6, 2024, 60 MINUTES broadcast an interview with Kamala Harris. Harris's response to a question about Israel from Bill Whitaker raised eyebrows, particularly those of Donald Trump. Trump demanded to see the unedited transcript and after a battle the transcript was released. It clearly showed that the broadcast interview had been edited in Harris's favor. The lawsuit stems from an exchange Harris had with “60 Minutes” correspondent Bill Whitaker, who asked her why Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasn’t “listening” to...

The panic that gripped Europe’s political elites after J.D. Vance delivered some overdue home truths in Munich found expression back home in the most embarrassing question ever asked by a network anchor. Our vice president had accused smug Eurocrats at the Munich Security Conference of abandoning free speech and allowing unchecked migration to roil their countries, warned them to respect their voters and told them America should not bear the primary burden of funding Europe’s security. “If you’re running in fear of your own voters, there is nothing America can do for you. Nor, for that matter, is there anything...

Vice President JD Vance has slammed CBS News' Margaret Brennan for what he called a 'crazy exchange' she had with Secretary of State Marco Rubio Sunday morning. Brennan was questioning Rubio about the vice president's remarks at the Munich Security Conference, in which he argued that free speech and democratic institutions were being eroded, when she erroneously linked the Holocaust to free speech. 'He was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct genocide and he met with the head of a political party that has far-right views and some historic ties to extreme groups,' the news...

Today, Secretary of State Marco Rubio went on Face the Nation and was confronted with this historical illiteracy from host Margaret Brennan:Brennan: "[Vance] was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide..." Rubio: "I have to disagree with you. Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide." "The genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocidal because they hated Jews... There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. There was none."

JD spent 20 minutes being interviewed by Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation. In what as a fare more combative interview than Biden or Harris faced in their entire administration, and absolutely stole the show, creating a new meme/internet slogan in the process.

McMaster said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that Republicans had to “disabuse themselves of this strange affection for Vladimir Putin.” McMaster said, “This is what I can’t understand, Margaret.

Vance and Tim Walz appears to have made two donations of $250 apiece to the controversial Lincoln Project during the 2020 election.

Nikki Haley, a former Republican presidential contender, criticised Donald Trump's vice president candidate JD Vance by terming his controversial remarks about .childless women as “not helpful.” Speaking to CBS anchor Margaret Brennan on the Face the Nation, Haley recalled the Ohio Senator's statement that he is “disoriented and disturbed that the head of the most powerful teachers' union in the country doesn't have a single child.” Brennan asked Haley to elaborate her stand on Vance's comments as he “continues to say things that certainly are highlighted as being offensive to women.” “It’s not helpful,” Haley remarked, adding that “You can...

Governor Maura Healey (D-MA) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump’s proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF) was not believable because he “will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing.” Healey said, “You can’t take this seriously. I mean, this isn’t just a Republican — and by the way, I work well with Republicans — this is Donald Trump, who will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing. He caught some heat the other day, you know, and so he...

On Saturday, CBS Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent and “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan stated that there have been reactions from some Republicans to the assassination attempt on 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump “who are quite angry” “in a way that will raise further concern of someone misinterpreting things and perhaps carrying out further political violence.” Brennan said, “I was just texting with Robert O’Brien, the former National Security Adviser to Donald Trump, who sent out a statement saying, we’ve got to take the political temperature down, he and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) issued this jointly. …...

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg attempted to justify the progress on electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, prompting a laugh from CBS’s “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brenna. After $7.5 billion of taxpayers’ money being plowed into the initiative, just a “handful” of charging stations have been built. The interview took a comedic turn when Brennan pointed out the discrepancy between the investment made back in 2021 and the reality of the results. Just seven or eight charging stations have been built despite billions being spent, according to the Federal Highway Administration, “Why isn’t that happening more quickly?” asked Brennan. Buttigieg responded...

(DCNF)—Some Democrats and liberal media outlets appear to be discovering the connection between big Biden donors funding radical left causes, including the pro-Palestine protests seen across the U.S., which are now coming back to bite President Joe Biden as he seeks re-election in November. A new report from Politico Sunday revealed that donors like Bill Gates, George Soros, David Rockefeller Jr., and Nick Pritzker are supporting organizations like Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow, which have been responsible for many of the protests at college campuses. These groups, according to the outlet, are funded by the Tides Foundation which is...

DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday morning. Host Margaret Brennen had asked Secretary Mayorkas if the illegal alien who killed Laken Riley should have been deported. He never answered, but instead deflected the question. Laken Riley, a 22-year-old Georgia nursing student, was brutally murdered by one of Joe Biden’s illegal aliens. Biden won’t say Laken Riley’s name either. “Should this man have been deported?” Brennen asked Mayorkas. “One individual is responsible for the murder, and that is the murderer,” Mayorkas responded. “Are you saying there that the Federal Government had been informed about this...

Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (Calif.) suggested Sunday that President Biden “do something bold” and call for a permanent cease-fire in Gaza as support from his base appears to be wavering. CBS News “Face the Nation” anchor Margaret Brennan presented polling showing nearly twice as many Democrats rate Biden’s presidency as fair or poor compared with Republicans who say the same about former President Trump and claimed the president is “having a problem with his base.” “And that’s why I think he needs to do something bold … this is a problem,” Khanna said Sunday. “But if he can turn it...

Clyburn, a confidant of President Joe Biden, argued Netanyahu’s leadership had been bad for Israel.

Some takeaways from Nargaret Brennan on CBS' 'Face the Nation' 12/10/23. After Charlie D'Agara stressed that the "Israeli military insists there is a safe corridor, but the UN is just not using it," Brennan completely ignored this. Brennan also ignored the almost daily finds by the IDF of locations where Hamas (who narrates images out of Gaza) and other Jihadis use for weapons and where to fire from, including: children's rooms, teddy bear, UNRWA schools, etc. For quite sometime, Brennan quoted Sanders about aid to Israel and promoted his views, instead of acting as an objective journalist. In this morning...
