For many years now, CBS News’ 60 Minutes has served as a clear-cut example of left-wing media propaganda. So, it wasn’t completely shocking when the program ran to a discredited ex-Justice Department official to trash the Trump administration amid its ongoing legal battles.

This past weekend’s episode included a sit-down interview with Erez Reuveni, who served as acting deputy director for the Office of Immigration Litigation until early April, when he was suspended and subsequently fired for failing to “zealously advocate on behalf of the United States” in court, according to Attorney General Pam Bondi. As The Federalist previously reported, his dismissal purportedly centered around his conduct in the DOJ’s efforts to deport Salvadoran national Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a credibly accused wife-beater and MS-13 gang member.

Trump held a White House event late on Friday afternoon, supposedly about drug prices, that, if it were covered by an objective media that was complicit and collaborating with the current administration, would sound alarm bells about whether any Democratic president ever sounded as incoherent as Donald Trump did.

The video can be easily glossed over, especially when someone has told as many lies and babbled as many words as Donald Trump has over the past decade, but transcripts of the words that the man actually puts together are more revealing.

Time for another entry in the continuing saga of the U.S. government being reassigned to work on President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

In the most recent development, hundreds of Department of Homeland Security employees in jobs unrelated to immigration have been ordered to transfer to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Border Patrol, and the Federal Protective Service.

You might not be as familiar with the last one, which protects federal buildings. That might sound a bit sleepier than working for ICE or CBP, but not these days.

The current president seems to have no convictions or core principles. He needs to fill that void inside himself by getting applause from others.

Donald Trump’s Obama inferiority complex has been driving him to relentlessly campaign to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for years. Frankly, it is embarrassing and beneath the presidency to have a man so shamelessly groveling for an award.

Ever since a government shutdown first started to seem like a real possibility, President Donald Trump has been threatening to use an impasse on Capitol Hill as a pretext to go after the people and institutions he doesn’t like. His administration has moved to kill New York City’s biggest infrastructure project, announced his intent to cancel $8 billion in clean-energy funding for states he lost last November, and vowed to fire employees and gut programs at what he calls “Democrat agencies.” What are “Democrat agencies?” On Friday, we got an answer.

About 4,000 federal employees received layoff notices—including “nearly 100” Housing and Urban Development staffers tasked with investigating fair housing complaints, according to Bloomberg, and 466 employees at the Department of Education.
