The 60 Minutes segment on CECOT was pulled at the last minute with no clear explanation.
A political decision made by Bari Weiss and the Trump administration undermines the very foundation of independent journalism. Repulsive.
Here's the segment.

Maria Farmer reported Epstein to the FBI in 1996! They ignored her complaint. So many girls could have been saved from horrible trauma.
These survivors deserve justice. It’s not too late.

Trump is literally laughing at his voters by pardoning a man like Joseph Schwartz. It’s disgusting.
Extrajudicial killings without congressional approval are illegal. Full stop.
Trump and Hegseth don't get to ignore the Constitution or unilaterally deploy U.S. forces against so-called terrorist groups.
Remember when Colin Powell warned us of “a dark vein of intolerance” in the Republican Party? It’s only gotten worse.
We need Republicans to strongly reject this.
Here’s the deal:
Pay a secret seven-figure deposit into Trump’s ballroom fund.
Get a president who rewards Big Tech.
Unchecked corruption in antitrust enforcement will destroy American innovation.
As the nation mourns the tragic murder of Rob and Michele Reiner, the President can’t even muster a single word of condolence.
No empathy. No humanity. Just cruelty, unapologetic and relentless.
To the family and loved ones of Rob and Michele Reiner, I send my deepest condolences.
The government shut down for 43 days because Republicans chose billionaire tax breaks over American healthcare.
Now they’ve slapped together a bill to convince Americans they “care.” No ACA tax credit extension in sight.
They’re not fooling anyone.
Happy Hanukkah from my family to yours!
To all those celebrating, I wish you joy, strength, love, and comfort as you light the first candle of Hanukkah.
This is a time to be grateful for our closest loved ones. May light always overcome darkness.
I extend my deepest condolences to members of the Jewish community who have been wounded or killed in Australia.
Our collective anguish could not be deeper.
As we celebrate Hanukkah, I wish all Jewish communities' strength, peace, and justice.

I’m filled with sorrow and rage after learning that two students were killed at Brown University and others are fighting for their lives.
Gun violence touches everyone. This is NOT the price of freedom. I’ll keep fighting for sensible gun laws, because we all deserve better.
I am deeply concerned about the Trump administration's decision to deploy the 158th Fighter Wing of the Vermont Air National Guard (VTANG).
I unwaveringly support our service members and their families, but I do not support military action without Congressional authorization.
Freedom of the press is essential for holding the powerful accountable. The Netanyahu government must conduct an investigation into the attack on Dylan Collins.
Trump officials are so insecure they even erased Admiral Rachel Levine’s name from her own HHS portrait.
Instead of honoring a patriot who is serving this country, they’re busy stoking bigotry, while the rest of America pays the price.
ICE is failing to address the medical needs of the people they detain. Inhumane and shameful.
Secretary Hegseth and anyone else who commits war crimes must be held accountable.
Can we all finally admit that tax cuts are never going to trickle down?
Immigration agents have detained at least 170 United States citizens under Trump and Kristi Noem.
