Here’s the full transcript of the reverse edit of the CBS 60 Minute interview. There’s NO PAYWALL so anyone can read it. CBS completely rearranged the interview. I just went through and pointed out what was cut and what wasn’t. substack.com/@decodingfoxnew…

Pres. Trump discussed his plan to issue pardons, the January 6th rioters and the war with Iran during his interview on 60 Minutes. The network didn't include most of what he said. They did focus on his opinion regarding UFOs.

Instead of challenging Trump on his false claims regarding the number of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. and sanctuary cities CBS simply cut portions out of his interview on 60 Minutes. This clip includes the extended interview and the broadcast version.

CBS heavily edited Trump's interview on 60 Minutes. The black and white clips did not appear in Sunday night's broadcast. The network removed sections where Trump made false claims and fabrications. This is part of his explanation about the war in Ukraine.

New from me: Why Schumer should start planning his exit
"Schumer has spent a lifetime mastering the Senate. Now he has a chance to master something far more rare in Washington: the art of knowing when to step aside."

Nobel Peace Prize laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk:
Trump promised to end the war in 24 hours. Now he has decided to finance it. These are already the longest 24 hours in human history.
Witkoff called putin a humanitarian. I have interviewed hundreds of people released from russian captivity. They were beaten, raped, locked in wooden boxes, had their fingers cut off, their fingernails ripped out, and were tortured with electric shocks to their genitals. One woman described how her eye was gouged out with a spoon.
What is happening now is an imitation of a peace process.
I met a five-year-old girl in Kyiv. The russians abducted her mother because of her pro-Ukrainian views, tortured her, and repeatedly gang-raped her. They then took her to russia and fabricated a criminal case against her.
The girl hugged me, burst into tears, and began begging: “Please, bring my mommy back.” I am a human rights lawyer, but I have no legal tools to force russia to return her. I hugged the girl and promised that we would fight for her mother.
Journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna was my friend and colleague. She traveled to the occupied territories to tell the truth about russian crimes. She was abducted, tortured, and secretly transferred to russia. She was held without formal charges and without contact with the outside world.
She was denied medical care. She weighed just 30 kilograms. The russians refused to return her body to her parents for six months. When they finally did, several internal organs, her eyes, her brain, and part of her trachea were missing. We still do not know how she died.
Viktoriia believed that the truth could save thousands of lives. That people in other countries, once they learned the truth, would make the right decisions.
My friend and teacher, Professor Ihor Kozlovskyi, spent 700 days in russian captivity. For months, he was held alone in a small, dark basement cell without windows or fresh air. Rats crawled out of the sewer.
He gave philosophy lectures to the rats just to hear a human voice. He was tortured so severely that after his release, he had to learn to walk again.
Kozlovskyi told me: “Everything I have experienced does not make me see myself as a victim. The foundation of our existence is dignity. And dignity is action.”

Here are the top donors to Jeffries in 2024. I’m curious if people doing this bit think this has more bearing on the racial politics of his support than photo-ops at DSA meetings. Do these seem like orgs concerned w/ people of color? Do they seem like orgs led by people of color?

I want to share a brief update.
My presidential memoir, PROMISE ME, AMERICA, is coming out on November 17th. I hope you'll read it. It covers my years as President. The challenges we faced, the decisions I made, and why I made them. It's about who we are as a nation. What we stand for. And America's role in the world. More than anything, it's about my faith in the American people and the great American experiment in self-governance and democracy.
While writing the book, I was diagnosed with cancer, a disease known all too well to millions of Americans and their families. My doctors continue to be encouraged by how I've responded to treatment. And the prayers and kind words and well wishes from so many of you have meant more to me and Jill and our family than you can ever know.
Some days are better than others. It hasn't stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down. What that means is, unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as many conversations about my book as I’d hoped. However, I’m hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves.
Looking forward, I'm going to keep following what my father told me a long time ago: "Champ, when you get knocked down, get up." It's a good lesson for me. And for America.
We are blessed. America is the most unique nation on earth. Unlike other countries, we're built on an idea. An idea bigger than any ocean. More powerful than any army. Stronger than any tyrant or dictator. That idea? All of us are created equal.
Promise Me, America, we'll never forget it.

The fact that conservatives think they can ban jokes about a guy who used to joke about genocide is peak hilarity. You guys forever lost the culture, just take the L

Ok, I didn’t expect a story time on Saturday, but here we go. What I’m about to write is TRUE. It is insane, stupid, and very dumb, but it is true. Earlier today Donald J Trump, the p[resident of the United States, posted that he had offered the job of Press Secretary to Dana White. Well, it was the wrong Dana White… 🧵

Run through the tape! Ignore the polls and call 10 people in your life that have not voted yet and make sure they have a plan to vote and help provide a check on the most corrupt administration in American history.

Anyone who wants Poland to exit the EU is against European values, is on Russia’s side, and seeks a Brexit of Eastern Europe. Poland has arguably Europe’s strongest military outside of Ukraine, and a strong history of hostility to Russia. This is a critical flashpoint.
