That 60 Minutes piece about CECOT

[wtg]

A 60 Minutes episode investigating a brutal prison in El Salvador, which CBS News’ editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, pulled from the air on Sunday, appeared online on Monday after appearing on a Canadian TV app.

The segment, which runs for nearly 14 minutes and was viewed by the Guardian, provides an in-depth look at the Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo (Cecot) prison in El Salvador. It opens with footage of the mega-prison and shows detainees being shackled upon arrival in El Salvador.

The episode was published on a streaming platform owned by Global TV, the network that has the rights to 60 Minutes in Canada.

Bari Weiss was installed at the behest of the state of Israel. Is anyone really surprised?

Tik Tok bad because of China. Bait and Switch. It was bought by an American Zionist billionaire.

Bari Weiss is an im imbacile. Bari Weiss has always been an imbacile.

It will be like the cliche-- banned in Boston. Now everyone will make a point of watching it. I haven't because the pictures alone are upsetting.

I guess the point is Trump is sending people to this prison with no due process. He's also sending people to foreign countries in Africa where they haven't been been since childhood and when they don't speak the language (and presumably arrive with nothing).

It's mind boggling.
