Here's an irony: according to one account, #CBS' #60Minutes was conceived in 1968 as a Golden Handshake for one of its founding producers (#DonHewitt?); he was offered resources to do as he liked, to get him shifted off his then-job. Mgt didn't intend anything with it, really. Numerous #Emmys later...it's one of the few MSM journalistic outlets standing between #Trump, #Musk, and complete capitulation.

#60Minutes (the one in the U.S.) 🚨 #ALERT 🚨

#USMarineBand FORCED to cancel with students of colour after Trump #DEI order

I posted this story, because this is one of many, many wake-up calls. Essentially, this happened to these kids because RACISM IS NOW LEGAL IN THE UNITED STATES.

The ...band...was CANCELLED from playing ...BECAUSE of #WhiteSupremacist moaning about #DEI

Let that sink in... 🚨

A #MustWatchVideo

Last night's 60 Minutes had several segments that were worth watching. Here's one:

"Justice Department purge under Trump administration"

"President Trump says his administration is cleaning up a Justice Department corrupted by politics. Amid the firings and resignations, one leader described a workplace of "confusion" and "fear." "
