Democrat politicians reached screeching levels of hypocrisy over Donald Trump's decision to act rather than wait for an Iranian nuclear weapon deployment. Chuck Schumer demanded action from Congress, as did Hakeem Jeffries. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez led calls for impeachment. Practically every Democrat on Capitol Hill -- with the notable exception of John Fetterman -- rushed to promote their "authoritarian" narrative about Trump. All of this venting reveals very short memories on the port side of Capitol Hill. Fourteen years ago, they couldn't get enough of presidential strikes on a nation in the very same region. Remember Hillary Clinton's chortling over the...

Last week, 60 Minutes’ executive producer Bill Owens resigned in protest — but Owens and the rest of the news program have never taken responsibility for their own corruption.Last week, Bill Owens, the executive producer of CBS’ flagship news program 60 Minutes, resigned, “citing encroachments on his journalistic independence,” per The New York Times. In the first show since the news of Owens’ resignation broke, 60 Minutes ended the program with a glowing, if dubious, tribute to Owens that has since gone viral online. The program took the unusual step of alleging unethical behavior by CBS’ corporate parent Paramount for...

Speaking to CBS News’s Lesley Stahl during his first presidential bid, Donald Trump made an unsurprising admission.Stahl had asked Trump why he continued to disparage journalists and the news media, describing them as an enemy of the American people. Trump’s explanation wasn’t that the media had earned that disparagement or to concede some exaggeration. Instead, he admitted that it was tactical.“I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so when you write negative stories about me, no one will believe you,” Stahl recalled Trump telling her.Again, not surprising. But it does cast a different light on Trump’s...

The trust and prestige that took prior generations of journalists decades to earn have been thrown away in just a few years by incompetents and partisans. CBS’s iconic 60 Minutes has had plenty of scandals and embarrassments in its long 57-year history, most notably the fake-but-accurate Dan Rather mess. Yet never has it found itself in greater disrepute than in 2024. Donald Trump, for good reason, recently declined to join 60 Minutes for its traditional election-year in-depth interviews of the two presidential candidates. Why? Last time he consented in 2020, anchor and interviewer Leslie Stahl attacked Trump’s accurate assertion that...

VIDEOCNN's Dana Bash was quick to jump in and DENY that there is any evidence of the Joe Biden regime conducting LAWFARE against its political opponents despite the multiple attempts to bring President Donald Trump to trial in the months leading into the November election. Not a bit of curiosity on the part of CNN as to why the #3 guy in the DOJ, Matthew Colangelo, downgraded himself to a local attorney in the Manhattan DA's office to prosecute Trump nor why Fani Willis' boy toy Nathan Wade of Fulton County, GA was meeting with a White House official. Naw!...

Liberal writers blast Leslie Stahl after bizarre Marjorie Taylor Greene interview on ‘60 Minutes’ Outspoken GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene doubled down on calling Democrats “pedophiles,” blasted establishment Republicans and demanded that the US stop the flow of aid money to Ukraine in a wide-ranging and fiery “60 Minutes” interview Sunday. Taylor Greene – also known as MTG – made numerous controversial comments during her sitdown with veteran reporter Leslie Stahl – and was promptly panned by many across social media. In one of the more shocking moments, the Georgia lawmaker responded “I would definitely say so” when Stahl pressed...

Lars Larson Proof Comes Of Possible Treason From Hillary Feb 14, 2022 @ 8:43am Remember Watergate? I know, it was long ago. I was a kid in high school at the time. It was a spying operation, a “third rate burglary”, a coverup, and it ultimately led to the resignation of an American President. It got maximum news coverage at the time Now we have “spygate”, including a Russian election hoax and dirty deeds done by Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party Remember when President Donald Trump told CBS reporter Leslie Stahl that he and his campaign had been spied...

Remeber this part of the 60 Minutes interview with President Trump?He was proven correct again. https://youtu.be/FmwBY-gJwkM

It should be clear at this point that Lesley Stahl’s main job description is to lie to the American people. On Sunday President Trump confronted Leslie Stahl from “60 Minutes” on the Biden family scandal. Lesley’s response: “He’s not. No! C’mon!” Stahl then denied that the Obama regime spied on the Trump campaign.

Cats, glass windows and vehicles: These pose the biggest threats to birds in the United States. But President Donald Trump is continuing to falsely claim that wind turbines are to blame for the deaths of the nation's birds. During Thursday night's final presidential debate between the president and former Vice President Joe Biden, Mr. Trump reiterated his stance against wind energy with a peculiar claim: It "kills all the birds." "I know more about wind than you do," Mr. Trump told Biden when moderator Kristen Welker turned to the topic of climate change. "It's extremely expensive. Kills all the birds....

President Donald Trump released footage from the CBS 60 Minutes interview after White House chief of staff Mark Meadows said Stahl was acting "more like an opinion journalist." "Look at the bias, hatred and rudeness on behalf of 60 Minutes and CBS," said the president on social media. "Tonight's anchor, Kristen Welker, is far worse! #MAGA" The video starts with Trump saying he's looking for "fairness" during the interview, as anchor Leslie Stahl preps the president by saying she was going to ask "tough questions." "You don't ask Biden tough questions," said the president. "It's terrible, you know that." Stahl...

Look at the bias, hatred and rudeness on behalf of 60 Minutes and CBS. Tonight’s anchor, Kristen Welker, is far worse! #MAGA

POTUS unedited interview with Lesli Stahl, 60 Minutes.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump I will soon be giving a first in television history full, unedited preview of the vicious attempted “takeout” interview of me by Lesley Stahl of @60Minutes . Watch her constant interruptions & anger. Compare my full, flowing and “magnificently brilliant” answers to their “Q’s”.

Leslie Stahl's interview with President-Elect Trump Leslie Stahl of 60 Minutes scored the first post-election interview with the President-Elect, Donald Trump. I tuned in as did millions of other Americans to share Trump’s historical victory. I didn’t know what to expect but started the evening with a sense of excitement to share Trump’s accomplishment. But my enthusiasm was soon dampened. From the opening, Ms. Stahl was cool towards Trump and by the end of the interview she’d progressed to rude, petulant, and disrespectful. Throughout the interview she had an air of superiority, the snobby rich wife enduring a conversation with...

<p>If the Rev. Al Sharpton, the bigoted, anti-Semitic, non-tax paying race-hustling poverty pimp, had any credibility left, it just vanished.</p> <p>The beneficiary of a lifetime of passes from our race-conscious mainscream media, Sharpton ran into an outlet not afraid of him -- The Smoking Gun. They obtained material that exposed Sharpton as an FBI "informant." Sharpton, of course, denies that this constitutes "snitching." No, he says he "volunteered" to "cooperate" with the FBI -- and for the most honorable of motives.</p>

"You can't run from your mistakes. You have to confront them." -- Arnold Schwarzenegger Believe it or not, there was a time when people didn't go on TV to confess their sins. That was back when most understood what sin is, before everything became excusable, especially for celebrities and the politically powerful. Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is on a media tour promoting his book, "Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story." It certainly is. On "60 Minutes," in USA Today and elsewhere, Schwarzenegger acknowledges affairs with women not his wife and the son he fathered with their housekeeper. He...

Leslie Stahl's "fascination" with Islamists. It has been a long career of pro-Islamism "research," by this eloquent reporter for CBS' 60min. In the latest example (may, 13, 2012) she made a piece about Gulen, the Turkish Islamic cleric/tycoon who "funds" schools in the US and turns them into revenues for his global empire. In quoting blogs that criticize Gulen as having a hidden Islamic agenda, she confronted a head of Gulen's people, but instead of waiting for an answer from the man, Leslie jumped and PROVIDED an answer of her own... " Would you say it's Islamophobia..? The man, of...

Why Bush really demoted Richard Clarke by Jack Cashill This is the fourth in a six-part series detailing the risks to American national security if Barack Obama (or Hillary Clinton) should ever choose to let Richard Clarke back into government. Clarke is currently one of Obama’s top national security advisors. “When George Bush came into office, though he kept Clarke on at the White House, he stripped him of his cabinet level rank.” So lamented Leslie Stahl during the March 2004 60 Minutes profile that would make Richard Clarke ace crowd surfer in the intellectual mosh pit of the anti-war...
