...and are asking the chief federal judge in Miami to stop the proceedings on the grounds that the Justice Department is "judge shopping."

Never take financial advise from somebody who's always flat broke.

As Ed has written about in two posts, the controversy over Bari Weiss's delay of a 60 Minutes story on Trump's deportation of illegal aliens to El Salvador's CECOT has completely gotten out of hand.

Not only was Weiss right about the story not being balanced, but now we know that the "journalists" who put together the story and leaked it to Canadian media actually lied to her and the world about the reporting that they did.

Elon is absolutely right. There is no point tinkering at the margins by debating wording, editing choices, or how a segment might be polished or improved. The problem is not execution. The entire 60 Minutes operation is corrupted, and it has been for a very long time, going back at least to the Dan Rather fake letter episode, which was explicitly designed to take down George W. Bush.

That was followed by a long series of scandals, including 60 Minutes loudly insisting that Biden family corruption claims had been debunked, insisting that Hunter Biden’s laptop was not verified, and, more recently, deceptively stitching together Kamala Harris’s incoherent word salad into something that resembled a coherent answer. These are not the mistakes of a newsroom that occasionally gets something wrong. They are the consistent behaviors of a political propaganda operation.

Framing this as a debate about journalistic standards completely misses the point. These are political operatives, not reporters, and the only serious course of action is to shut the operation down and rebuild from scratch with entirely new people.

Two suspects in a far-left “anti-capitalist, anti-government” extremist group known as the “Turtle Island Liberation Front” were charged Tuesday with plotting to detonate weapons of mass destruction in and around Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve in a bombshell grand jury indictment.

The FBI — with the help of a confidential informant and undercover agent — disrupted the planned attack, which was designed to “completely pulverize” tech companies and logistics firms around LA before targeting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents with a series of shootings and pipe-bomb explosions, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Zachary Aaron Page, a 32-year-old trans woman, and Audrey Illeene Carroll, a 30-year-old who goes by the nickname “Black Moon,” were both charged with one count of conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, prosecutors said.

In total, four suspects — Page, Caroll, Dante “Nomad” James Anthony-Gaffield, 24, and Tina “Kickwhere” Lai, 41 — were arrested Dec. 12 in the Mojave Desert where they were attempting to test the bombs, authorities said. They each face charges related to the terrorist plot and all are being held without bail. Page was denied a request to transfer to a women’s prison in a hearing last week.
