Thank you for preserving this. Chilling and inhumane treatment.

Thanks. That's a good transcript. Here is a link to Allison Gill on Substack where the actual video is available: https://substack.com/home/post/p-182370954 Even though Weiss puled this episode from American viewers, it was still aired in Canada.

Thanks so much for sharing this video. I searched online earlier today and couldn’t find it. The videos had already been removed.

We need to be sharing this everywhere so Americans can see what’s actually happening under trump’s lawless and corrupt regime. SO HEARTBREAKING.

I’m happy to be able to share it. We can keep spreading the truth. We have a lot of power. We just have to use it wisely and we can get the criminals out of the government and work to make a much better world.

It's on Canadian tv.

Merry's avatar

Yeah, that’s where I looked, but a couldn’t find the full story. Only edited versions. So thanks again for sharing.

Thank you for sharing this.

You’re very welcome! We have the internet and there are plenty of us. We can spread the truth about what’s going on and take action to fix things, to bring back our democracy and bring it back better.

Closer to the Edge - Maybe you all could do a collab think with Allison Gill?

Oh those poor people. 💔😪

This is just hideous! And just one example of what's really going on.

Not see motherfuckers all! Won't be long and they will come for all of us. Unless this is stopped! But how? When? Thank you for letting us know the awful truth. 💔😪🙏🏿

After CBS capitulated over the Leslie Stahl interview with Trump to the tune of $15 million so the Paramount merger with Skydance could go through, one could anticipate this type of self censorship happening under the watch of David Ellison and Bari Weiss.

Good for Sharon Alphonsi for protesting vigorously. Weiss’s comments are baseless and CYA capitulation to prevent a Trump lawsuit.

The staff should have walked out.

Inhumane and immoral. Shame on Weiss for withholding these atrocities!

Thank you for saving this 60 Minutes piece. Bari Weiss's obviously political ass-kissing stunt backfired.

Thank you for preserving this and for speaking out!

Freedom of speech and freedom of one’s life - horrific reality of our administration.

No different from extermination in the ovens of Nazi Germany. This is how close we are …….

Horrendous. We are currently living in a very evil country! I don’t use the word “our country” because this not my country. I was raised by good people with empathy for all humans. This is not the government for the people unless you can afford to buy your way to power.

Thank you for saving this record. History will not view these prisons well. Thank you too for highlighting the cruelty of American government.

Merry's avatar

Yeah, that where I looked. So thanks again for sharing.

Valerie Gordon's avatar

I saw it tonight on Canadian tv...I think it was on Global TV.

Merry's avatar

An extremely difficult but essential assessment to read. Thank you. Americans need to know the TRUTH about what’s happening under Trump’s corrupt and lawless regime.

Julie's avatar

This administration isn’t human in way. Thank you for publishing the transcript. ✌🏻

If you manage to see the episode, I saw it last night, there was nothing in it but the horrific story about the brutal mistreatment of immigrant men who were rounded up, deported, abused and treated inhumanely then used as a bargaining chip, all truths we were aware of already. The fact that the story was pulled when and how it was drew far more attention than if it had just aired. Sharon Alfonsi’s response to her colleagues over the episode not running, confirm for us what the entire event really means … legacy media is dead. 60 minutes, the long standing gold standard for investigative journalism is run by morally bankrupt individuals who view power money and allegiance to the Trump administration over their mission of journalistic excellence.
