Summary

CBS’s 60 Minutes faced intense backlash from Trump allies after host Scott Pelley criticized Donald Trump’s cabinet picks, calling them unqualified and lacking experience.

Pelley highlighted Pete Hegseth (Defense Secretary), Matt Gaetz (Attorney General), Tulsi Gabbard (Director of National Intelligence), and RFK Jr. (head of the CDC) as controversial nominees, citing loyalty to Trump rather than qualifications.

The segment drew sharp criticism from Trumpworld figures like Steven Cheung, Elon Musk, and Charlie Kirk, who labeled it biased propaganda.

Some Democrats and Republicans have also questioned the viability of these nominations in Senate confirmations.

        start by depriving mainstream media your eyes. your attention is the most valuable commodity, and most media caters to the right because the left is addicted to being well informed. media outlets do not fear losing the left’s eyes. and they’ve shifted their bias right enough that they’re straight up no longer providing info, just a slightly center right perspective on certain events.

          Right leaning stuff spurs viewership from both sides. The left gets outrage bait and the right gets “pwn the libruls” porn.

          I’m so sick of american aristocracy running everything.

      Right wing backlash means you’re doing it right!

      Clarity can easily be found in Nazi tears.

      Those morons fell for a ploy to distract from a lawsuit against Mars over slave labor that was happening at around that time, and as a result, distracting US morons.

        Tucker Carlson wanted to fuck them but he has a foot fetish and doesn’t like their flats when they used to have heels.
