60 Minutes highlights transgender people who have decided to de-transition and I’m sure it won’t be seen as controversial in the least. pic.twitter.com/vetbQFe3Oo

This week on 60 Minutes, the horrible old Jewish woman Lesley Stahl went and interviewed reverse-trannies.

I have no idea why Stahl did this report, but I salute her. She went and found a few of the very, very many people who have gone through tranny “transitioning,” and told the heart-wrenching stories of people who are permanently deformed.

One poor sonovabitch got talked into cutting his testicles off, and now he wants to kill himself because he will never be a man again. He said he had two appointments before they gave him the hormones, three months later they were cutting his balls off and mutilating his penis.

A woman talked about wanting to die after cutting her tits off.

Stahl even went through and showed that there is an entire industry on the internet encouraging vulnerable people to do this.

What the story shows is what we all already knew: children and other vulnerable people are preyed upon by homosexuals and callous “doctors” who are making huge money on this industry. Whatever you think of trannies, going to a doctor and saying “I don’t like my sex” and then being rushed through a series of insane medical procedures is absolute corruption.

Take it out of the political, and just think about the money. But of course, leftists don’t care about financial corruption anymore, or the exploitation of the vulnerable. All they care about is pushing a weird agenda to destroy society completely.

Tucker Carlson reported on the 60 Minutes report, and then interviewed a man who has gone through the same experience as these other reverse trannies.

What percentage of trannies that don’t end up committing suicide outright regret the decision to mutilate their bodies? Presumably all but a minor fraction. Just imagine getting depressed, being in an unsound mental state, and then being swarmed with “experts” telling you that your life will be great if you just cut your dick off.

This is all so horribly ghoulish. It is like something out of Hellraiser. It is truly incredible that people in society somehow think this is okay, and don’t speak out against it.

Now, of course, they are doing this to children – little children. As Tucker says, Joe Biden has said he wants to mutilate the genitals of 8-year-olds.

This is what happens when a society separates from God. You end up in a hell on earth.

Of course, all of the gay organizations came out and attacked 60 Minutes for reporting on this issue, claiming that the experiences of these people who are speaking out about regretting their decisions need to be covered up, because it could convince fewer people to do it. (Again, you have both the social agenda and the economic incentive on display there.)

Stahl has already issued a half-apology for the show, but she stood behind the report.

Again, I have no idea why she did this. My thought is that even though she’s Jewish, she is old, and she probably legitimately does think this is all very sick. I think it’s possible to be a liberal Jew and to also think that taking mentally ill people and encouraging them to cut their penises off is sick.

Fifteen years ago a feminist punk band called the Dresden Dolls did a song about tranny surgery regret, which was openly and aggressively against the sickening mutilation practice (which was just beginning in some cities among freaks back in the 2000s).

Here are the lyrics.

The band’s lead, Amanda Palmer, might not be Jewish but she was an ultra-leftist and married the uber-Jew novelist Neil Gaiman.

Point being: this was not something that really anyone on earth supported before the media and education system started ramming it down our throats around 2015, and then it jumped immediately to the children.

The fact that so many in our society are refusing to stand up and say this is wrong shows you that we are a society of cowards. It’s the same thing with the coronavirus hoax and vaccine, it’s the same thing with the stupid black racism gibberish – most people know this stuff is wrong, and yet only a fraction are able to risk what they have to stand against it.

Because they won’t risk anything, they’re all going to lose everything. There is an order to the universe, and evil is always punished. Those who abide evil are guilty of it themselves.

On Sunday, 60 Minutes aired a report about UFOs. Journalist Bill Whitaker interviewed several people from the military to discuss the allegation put forward by the Pentagon that there are ultra-advanced aircraft flying around the earth for unknown reasons.

You should of course watch it and draw your own conclusions about what is going on there, but there’s something about this that immediately pops out at me: all the footage is from the government and all of the people claiming to have seen the crafts are from the government.

I think it is now beyond any doubt that the government is pushing a fake alien agenda which is likely to start heating up quickly.

Fake Aliens are Not a New Idea

After 60 Minutes aired this program, the entire media began talking about the topic of UFOs. Someone yesterday told me: “Project Blue Beam is real.” I don’t think it is real, but it is certainly relevant to this discussion.

Project Blue Beam is a conspiracy theory from the 1990s that the US government would use holograms to project flying saucers into the air and then fake an alien contact event and the return of Jesus Christ.

I heard this and many other conspiracy theories as a kid listening to Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell. After the dawn of the internet, when I began investigating a lot of things, I investigated the “Blue Beam” story. The whole thing is just from one guy, a French Canadian named Serge Monast, who claimed to have seen secret government documents he couldn’t ever produce. (Note that Project Blue Beam is different from Project Blue Book; the latter is the Pentagon’s real life supposed “investigation” of UFOs, and is mentioned briefly in the 60 Minutes segment.)

The most compelling aspect of the theory is that Monast died of a surprise heart attack in 1996 at the age of 41, not long after he’d written a book about the alleged project. But a surprise heart attack is not evidence of a murder and he certainly did not look very healthy in any of the images I’ve seen of him.

Unfortunately, in this case, I have to say that the Rational Wiki entry on Project Blue Beam is pretty spot-on. I dislike that site for the same reasons everyone dislikes smug fedora-reddit atheists, but you know the thing about broken clocks.

The conclusion I have come to is this: Monast put together a story that seems plausible (which he maybe even genuinely thought was going to happen), then falsely claimed to have documents showing that the government was planning it.

This happens probably more than you would guess: journalists and people who claim to be journalists regularly come up with things that seem plausible or likely, then claim that they have an “insider source.” It is not at all limited to the conspiracy community. There are several prominent right-wing Twitter accounts that use the “sources say” bit and x% of the “leaks” and “anonymous officials” in the New York Times are just things the Times made up outright.

Though I never would have actually done it, I often regret that when I was trying to explain the virus hoax I didn’t claim to have an “insider source” at the World Economic Forum or the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. I think more more people would have taken my warnings more seriously, and I don’t think anyone who was already taking it seriously would have taken it less seriously. But I’m a slave to journalistic ethics.

The bottom line is: whenever you start talking about a fake alien agenda, a lot of people on either side will revert to Project Blue Beam. Rightists will say “Project Blue Beam is real” while leftists will say “Project Blue Beam is fake and therefore there are no fake aliens.” Fake conspiracy theories muddy the waters on many issues. It would be better if rightists didn’t associate fake aliens with Project Blue Beam, then leftists wouldn’t have a way to point to an easy out.

But it is what it is: there is zero documentation for Project Blue Beam, and yet we are clearly facing some kind of fake alien agenda.

However, it does make sense, which is why so many people believed it without evidence. It would indeed be very beneficial to the people in power to come out and say, “aliens have come to earth and they’ve told us to create a world government. The aliens are also Jesus.”

This is so obviously desirable to the elite that Ronald Reagan actually said it in a speech to the United Nations on September 21, 1987.

On uniting the world under a single world order, Reagan said:  “Perhaps we need some outside universal threat to make us recognize this common bond. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.”

This is something that they were thinking about back then. They were making all kinds of films about it for decades. The concept of an alien threat uniting the world was featured in the film Independence Day – they fight back against the aliens on July 4th, so that becomes the Independence day of the whole world (independence from alien invasion).

In October of 1987, the final issue of Alan Moore’s Watchmen was released, and featured a fake alien invasion being used by cynical control freaks as a justification for a global government. A gigantic fake squid alien is dumped on New York City, killing a bunch of people.

The way comics are made, there is no way he could have changed the story to fit in with what Reagan said (it is also clear just looking at the structure of the story that he wouldn’t change the ending like that). Stranger still, when this comic was made into a film in 2009, they changed the ending to remove the alien.

The first example of a fake alien contact event being used to form a global government that I’m aware of, and something which probably influenced Monast when he was putting together his theory, was  “Invasion From Outer Space,” the lead story in Tales Of Suspense #2, published in 1959. This actually featured holograms.

The story was uncredited, but is assumed to have been both written and drawn by Jacob Kurtzberg AKA Jack Kirby (I will always defend Kirby as an artist, but he was definitely Jewish).

A “fake aliens to create a world government” plot appeared in the 1963 Outer Limits episode Architects of Fear, written by the Jew Meyer Dolinsky.

I imagine that if there is an event, it will be a peaceful contact, rather than a violent invasion. I would picture fake aliens who are identical to humans coming to warn us about racism and global warming. But they could also have the aliens start issuing threats of some kind

Even if they do not go all the way to a fake contact event, they are going to begin flooding the media with Alien Agenda gobbledygook in order to intensify the confusion already running rampant through our society.

There is really no other explanation for what we saw on 60 Minutes on Sunday.

The biggest difference between what Monast wrote about and what is happening is that there are no holograms projected into the sky. Instead, the Pentagon is disseminating digitally manipulated video footage of UFOs. If there ever is a “contact” event, they will figure out a way to stage it with CGI and some props. They will do the same thing they do with Hollywood movies. Monast’s insistence on Holograms made the whole thing sound ridiculous.

Meanwhile, French computer scientist Jacques Vallée has put forward a much more clear concept about the government faking aliens that few people even know about.

He claimed all through the 1990s that the government was manipulating people into believing in aliens for the purpose of social manipulation. He comes across as a bit of a kook himself now, but you have to consider what it was like before the internet in terms of information. He came at the topic simply wanting to research it, and came to the conclusion that the government was promoting fake aliens in the 1980s as part of a larger scheme.

It is really a shame that the Blue Beam thing was promoted so heavily, as it disguises the obvious fact that the establishment has been using everything in their power to promote aliens nonsense for decades on end, clearly as part of a weird agenda. If discussion of this agenda had not been relegated to the conspiracy theory realm, people would immediately know what was happening when the media starts doing nonstop UFO coverage.

The Military is the One Releasing the Footage, The “Whistleblowers” are All From the Military

I’m not really willing to entertain the idea of actual aliens, on principle. It’s not religious principle, but just science. There is no way to travel faster than the speed of light. I know we’ve spent our lives seeing “warp drive” in science fiction, but that is not real. Worm holes and so on are just abject nonsense. This means that it would take a ridiculously long time for aliens to reach earth. They would have to freeze themselves, or send robots, and there is just no coherent explanation as to why they would come here and then just fly around in ships harassing the US military.

It just doesn’t make logical sense. The logical, sensible thing is that if we are seeing UFOs here, they are from here.

However, we don’t have to go into any of that, for a very simple reason: these videos are all being released directly by the US military. As far as I’m aware, every single one of these videos that has popped up in the last few years – including every video featured on the latest 60 Minutes episode – is from the military.

Furthermore, everyone interviewed by the show, save Marco Rubio, is from the military. (And Rubio was the Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.)

Whitaker first interviews two military men who were allegedly assigned to look at videos and radar scans of UFOs. Neither claims to have seen one in real life.

Luis Elizondo claims that he worked for military intelligence for 20 years, working in the Middle East and Guantanamo Bay, and then in 2008 he was pulled in to be the leader of a secret Pentagon UFO program called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP).

This guy has been around for a few years, regularly featured on the History Channel’s UFO circuit. He describes AATIP exactly like the eponymous X-Files in the X-Files TV show. He even says they shut it down (like the X-Files were always being shut down in the show). He claims to have looked at a bunch of videos of UFOs. In 2019, The Intercept claimed that there was no evidence that he ever worked at for a Pentagon UFO operation, though I can believe he did (or I could believe he didn’t).

The next fellow interviewed, former Navy pilot Lieutenant Ryan Graves, claims that he saw UFOs on radar and infrared every single day for years.

What exactly is to keep intelligence from simply feeding these men fake videos and radar scans of crafts? Every single video is blurry. If people are seeing these crafts, why do we not have a single clear image of them? High definition cameras have existed for a long time.

Those two men don’t have to be lying: they could really have been fed these videos and other electronic documentation. If the government is planning an Alien Agenda, I see no reason that they wouldn’t try to get as many people as they can that are working in the military to actually believe in these craft. What does it cost them to create a department designed to look at photoshopped videos of blurry future ships that “defy the laws of physics”?

Whitaker then interviews a two Navy pilots, David Fravor and Alex Dietrich, who claims to have flown right up close to one of these crafts in 2004.

They say they were right up near an actual ship, shaped like a Tic Tac, hovering over the water and creating whitewater. It moved in weird directions and splashed around before disappearing before their very eyes.

Certainly, an eyewitness account is more compelling than a bunch of blurry videos that could just as easily be faked. But these two people could simply be intelligence agents trained to act.

Which is more likely: real UFOs or two trained actors?

Is not Occam’s Razor, very straightforwardly, that this is a hoax?

Following the narrative of the X-Files TV show, Whitaker then goes to the government insider who has been working to help the soldiers get their story told about this Alien Agenda: Christopher Mellon of the Mellon banking family.

He serves as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense and Staff Director of the Senate Intelligence Committee. So he’s a high-ranking bureaucrat from an elite family who is concerned about these aliens.

Mellon was the one who in 2017 “leaked” videos of these supposed spaceships to the New York Times, which led to a period of the media pumping it up.

The NYT seeded the “government admits it” idea for later use (this is the same thing they did with the “SARS pandemic” in the early 2000s – they acclimate people to ideas that will be used in future hoaxes, and they always overlap with stories from entertainment media).

Maybe Mellon believes it. There is no reason he has to know this is a hoax. The only people who have to know it is a hoax are the people claiming to have seen one of these craft with their own eyes. The rest of these people have just seen digital video, which is precisely worthless in terms of proving the actions of living people, never mind the actions of a blurry shape.

Finally, Whitaker talks to Senator Marco Rubio, who is playing the character of Senator Richard Matheson from the X-Files.

Rubio said the same thing he always says on the topic, saying that we have to find out what these ships are for the sake of national security. He has been the key figure in this agenda following the departure of Harry Reid, who had previously been pushing it.

Rubio is the epitome of an “empty suit.” He’s probably gay and the only thing he actually cares about is overthrowing communism in Cuba so his family can go back and rule the country. He will say literally anything, so he’s the perfect figurehead of this weird agenda. I doubt he knows it’s a hoax. I think he’s just the kind of person who doesn’t ask a lot of questions, which is why he was the Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee in the first place.

Rubio said he’s pushed for an unclassified report that is coming next month. I expect this report will be heavily covered in the media, and will be the start of mass coverage of UFOs. It won’t be coronavirus or Black Lives levels of coverage, but it will be a major, ongoing news item.

Probably, when the report is released, the Pentagon will agree to start publishing footage of the alleged craft, which will serve as constant fodder for the media. Again, even if they do not decide to do a fake alien contact event, dumping a bunch of Alien Agenda nonsense into a society already in the midst of a collective paranoid-schizoid breakdown is something that’s worth the media’s time.

The entire 60 Minutes segment was ridiculous. Whitaker was attempting to act incredulous, while at the same time agreeing that the Pentagon “admitted it” and not giving any counterargument other than “maybe it’s a weather balloon.” The obvious counterargument is that this is a government hoax. That is very straightforward. Even if you believed in aliens, you would admit that the obvious counterargument is government hoax. That is the debate: “is it aliens or is it a government hoax.” In nowhere in this equation is a discussion of weather balloons. But 60 Minutes did not bother to present the obvious counterargument. This was blatant shilling for the Alien Agenda hoax.

Whitaker did not interview the Smoking Man. That is probably a New York Times exclusive.

Where are the Cellphone Videos?

Here’s a major problem: no one is filming these craft with their cellphones. If these ships are flying around everywhere, and the military is recording video of it every day, how is it possible that videos of it are not showing up constantly on Twitter? The ships in these blurry government videos, for reasons unexplained, have lights on them. Everyone has a phone, everyone films everything they see, and since the dawn of the cellphone, we’ve not seen huge numbers of these videos. In fact, we haven’t seen any.

The video that featured the best defined images is one of a craft moving outside of a jet in daylight. It looks vaguely like the shuttlepod from Star Trek: Enterprise (the show took place before transporter technology had been perfected, so they were always bopping around in shuttlepods).

Again, these people claim this happens regularly. How is it that they’re the only ones who have noticed it?

In the 1990s, there was a huge wave of UFO theories, with thousands of people calling in to Art Bell and other talk radio shows to tell stories about seeing UFOs. Many people built careers on telling these stories as well. Some people would tell stories about actually seeing aliens, or being abducted by them. They would usually relate it back to films, in particular Steven Spielberg’s 1977 film Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

This was a big part of the culture when I was a kid. The very first episode of South Park, which aired in August of 1997, was called “Cartman Gets an Anal Probe,” a reference to claims from people who had alleged that they were abducted by aliens and given an anal probe.

It seems likely that people saw this stuff in entertainment, and were able to convince themselves it was real.

However, by the mid-2010s, that whole thing seemed to have been debunked by cellphone cameras. No one could claim they saw a UFO anymore, because if they did, people would ask them why they didn’t film it. If they claimed to have been abducted, there also would have been some cellphone record. So people just stopped making these claims.

Look at the X-Files. In the original show in the 1990s, the main plot was based on the talk radio shows and books about aliens. However, when the show was relaunched in 2016, they made it about Alex Jones type secret government “New World Order” material, because the aliens thing just wasn’t interesting anymore.

Every time I’ve talked about this aliens hoax, a portion of readers respond with the theory that the government has secret high technology, maybe stolen from Nikola Tesla or something. However, that becomes really confusing in terms of how it would be developed without the cooperation of universities and the private sector with no leaks. Yes, I am aware of the Manhattan Project, but that was only three years long and it was before the internet. It was also during a time when society was cohesive, and people believed in the government. Just look at all that Wikileaks has leaked, and the closest thing you come to secret technology is secret spying and hacking software. Logically, you also run into the problem of why war with China and Russia is such a big deal if the government has secret space age technology. Furthermore, if they had these kinds of ships, they could probably at that point just be using microwaves to control our thoughts, and so we wouldn’t even be here thinking about it.

Of course, as is always the case with conspiracy theories, you can create more conspiracy theories to explain the flaws in the original theory, ad infinitum. But to me, the idea of secret government anti-gravity crafts becomes too convoluted. It requires too much effort to explain. What does not require effort is faking some videos of crafts and then sending out a few intelligence officers to claim on TV that they saw crafts.

The cellphone camera problem persists through the theory of secret government technology. Much bigger than that is the fact that other militaries are not claiming to be seeing these craft. Surely, if they were secret US government craft, they would at least be using them to test China and Russia? And if they’re picked up on US radar, they would be picked up on other countries’ radar systems.

This idea that the military is seeing these things nonstop and yet no one else does is not rational. Faked videos and actors on TV makes 100% sense as an assumption, covers all bases, and does not require any kind of massive, confusing, convoluted conspiracy theory.

Poor Tucker

Tucker Carlson is always behind the curve on this stuff. (Well, he’s behind the Stormer curve. He’s obviously ahead of the general society curve.)

I used to wonder about him, but after the things he said about the ADL, I don’t wonder anymore. He’s a good Christian man with a good Christian heart, doing his best. He’s just from a different generation, a generation before the internet, when information was processed differently. Things have gotten a lot worse since his head writer Blake Neff was fired for saying whatever mean words on the internet.

Remember: Tucker initially shilled the coronavirus hoax, and is alleged to be the one who told Donald Trump to start “taking it seriously.” Of course, he’s completely reversed on that, saying it’s a hoax and actually going so far as to say the vaccine is killing people in huge numbers.

He has finally stopped shilling the kook State Department line about China. Although it seemed like shilling at the time, looking back it’s clear he genuinely believed that Joe Biden was somehow linked to Chinese communism, and it just took him a minute to figure out that Biden was going to go much harder on China than Trump ever did.

On Monday, he began talking about America losing its position of power in the world and what that would mean, and I thought for sure he was getting ready to revert to hysterical anti-Chinese talking points. But no. Instead, he shilled 60 Minutes’ Alien Agenda gibberish.

(You can watch it in the first segment of this full video of Sunday’s show on the always helpful Bitchute.com.)

I have faith now that Tucker will catch up. He is not some arrogant scumbag who won’t admit he’s wrong. He will change positions. But he hasn’t figured this out yet. Part of it is probably that he looks at the moron Sean Hannity and the rest of the “conservative” retards in his circles and sees they’re not talking about it and assumes it must be important.

Tucker may also be vaguely aware that people in the elite Davos circles appear to believe in aliens, and he’s just not connecting the dots. I’ve said for years and years that it is likely that part of how they get non-Jews to work for this globalist agenda so diligently is by telling them aliens are behind everything.

Remember that in 2016, Jean-Claude Juncker, then the head of the EU, claimed to be in contact with aliens. Also remember that the media didn’t report on it hardly at all, and EU published fake minutes of the session he was speaking in, removing the thing he said about speaking with “leaders of other planets.”

I think a lot of high level bureaucrats probably believe this hoax. It makes logical sense that after beating religion out of people, they would be ready to believe something so idiotic.

It’s also possible that Tucker is influenced by Alex Jones, who promotes the above mentioned conspiracy theories about secret government anti-gravity planes, and that he’s trying to lead into that by “just asking questions.”

Whatever the case, he needs to figure it out quickly.

Saagar Enjeti from the Hill is following Tucker’s lead. Yesterday he brought on Jeremy Corbell, who is either stupid or a liar.

The rest of the media is pretending to be credulous, following 60 Minutes’ lead.

No one is saying the obvious.

One thing is for certain: Joe Rogan isn’t going to say it. If he gets drunk and high and accidentally says it, he’ll apologize to the aliens. Calling for the Pentagon to release the files is like calling for the government to do more to fight the coronavirus. It’s buying into this game they are playing. They are playing coy with this “secret government files on the truth about UFOs” gibberish. They want people to ask for it so they can dump a bunch of disinformation.

Tucker will probably catch up when he ends up in a situation where he’s using the same talking points as CNN. That’s what happened with the China thing.

Apex Hoax: The Apotheosis of Fake News

Let me be clear again: I don’t know if they’re going to roll out this hoax in full. I am not a prophet and I do not have the ability to predict the future. Even when I said “the lockdown will never end,” I said that this would be the case if no one resisted. The future is always unwritten, and you should always be weary of people who are too sure of themselves.

What I am trying to do here is layout, in full, my reasoning as to why I believe that a fake aliens agenda is brewing. You should be able to think it through yourself and come to your own conclusions.

The rulers might not even know themselves yet where they will end up going with aliens stuff. They might be waiting to see the popular response to a media barrage of Pentagon psych-war UFO gibberish. But this is true: the more we hear about it, the more likely it becomes that they’re going to run with it.

Individual people will no doubt claim that people in general wouldn’t go along with this aliens hoax. To those individual people I say: look around you.

People in general have gone along with a virus hoax for nearly a year and a half, going step by step through a process of surrendering their freedom and ultimately their bodily autonomy to the government. They’re wearing masks and getting injected with some bizarre gene therapy treatment despite the fact that there is no evidence of a “pandemic.” In fact, an official publication from Johns Hopkins, the nation’s top medical authority, confirmed that at the supposed height of the “pandemic,” there were no new deaths from this virus, and the supposed “death toll” was just deaths from other causes being reclassified as “coronavirus” deaths.

We don’t know the exact number of people who are going along with this pandemic hoax. They’ve made it a kind of crime to question it, and they of course censor anyone who does. This is called a “chilling effect,” and even if you could believe the polls (and I do not), many people under a chilling effect are not going to be honest to pollsters for fear of getting in trouble. But we’ve all seen, out on the streets of American cities and in our own families, severe numbers of people who actually believe it.

At least as many people will go along with this aliens hoax.

What’s more, I think we would have to be kidding ourselves to imagine that most evangelical churches won’t agree that the leader of the aliens is Secret Space Jesus. Evangelical Judeo-Christians have been nursing science fiction nonsense with their end times prophecy racket for decades. Surely they will endorse aliens as their savior. These people, who turned Christianity into an apocalypse doom cult, are going out and getting the vaccine, which is literally “mark” that you’re not going to be able to buy or sell unless you have.

Certainly, if they do implement this Alien Agenda they will obviously censor anyone who questions it. It will be even more extreme than the virus censorship. Whatever is going on with Tucker’s thought process, I hope he thinks this through sooner rather than later, because he’s not likely to be on TV when this hoax comes to fruition.

This will obviously be a bigger hoax than any hoax before it, but we’ve seen a progression in recent years of hoaxes made from nothing: first it was Trump being a Russian agent, then the coronavirus, then a racist conspiracy by cops to commit a genocide against blacks. You can throw “female souls are accidentally being born in the bodies of male children” in there too somewhere, alongside the overwhelming supernatural importance of gay marriage in Taiwan and Antifa riots in Hong Kong.

All of these are versions of what Adolf Hitler called “the Big Lie.” He said that the Jews would tell lies so big that no one could dare question it, because it seemed beyond belief that someone would make it up. The Jews have continued to use that same technique on America and the West after achieving their desired outcome in World War II. Telling people that space aliens have landed on earth to lecture them about racism and carbon taxes is the final form of the Big Lie.

What is happening is that these hoaxes are stacking. As people buy into one lie, they are more willing to buy into another even bigger lie. Furthermore, even people who don’t buy the lie get dragged into it. The “conservative” narrative on Russia was that Russia did hack the election to help Trump, but that has nothing to do with Trump. On the virus, they say it’s a new virus and it’s deadly, but it’s really not that deadly.

An aliens hoax would remove the fence-riders. You can say: “the Russians are an adversary, but,” “the virus is dangerous, but,” and so on. You cannot say “I believe in the aliens and their agenda, but…”

Things are weird and they’re getting weirder, folks.

As far as anyone can tell, we are headed directly towards the Apex Hoax and the Apotheosis of Fake News which is the Alien Agenda.

Just stay sane. Do your best to roll with the punches and have some fun.

Leslie Stahl is a rude Jewish hag.

She was acting like such an utter cunt in this interview with Donald Trump that was just released right now.

The media is so disgusting and so Jewish. Jewish people are rude and unbearable. We shouldn’t allow these Jews in our country. This is supposed to be a Christian country.

Trump was being nice and polite too. When he said, “Leslie, that’s such a vicious thing you just said,” he actually seemed hurt. I don’t think he was hurt,  but if I didn’t know better, I’d think he was.

What does a person who doesn’t understand about Jews think when watching this? Why on earth would someone harbor this kind of hatred?

60 Minutes sent Norah O’Donnell, a much younger and not Jewish woman to interview Joe Biden, and ask him about what kind of ice cream he likes best.

That interview is obviously heavily edited to make Biden look non-senile. The questions are benign. They didn’t actually ask the ice cream question, but it would have fit in well with the rest of those questions.

It is absolutely criminal what the media is doing. If the media was even a little bit fair, there would be no contest.

The media is a criminal conspiracy, by Jews, to undermine the United States of America and manipulate our elections. They are working directly with the tech companies to accomplish that goal. All of these people need to be investigated right along with John Brennan, James Comey, Barack Obama and the rest of these criminals.

When the Day of Reckoning comes, we cannot allow the media to get off the hook.

Jews are seriously deluded people, who think that their own people are beloved among the goyim, and can’t stand to face the fact that if Jews didn’t control everything, the goyim would never choose Jews as their cultural figures.

Jew Maggie Haberman apparently genuinely believes that Jew Leslie Stahl is one of the most beloved figures in American journalism.

Haberman writes for the New York Times:

President Trump abruptly cut off an interview with the “60 Minutes” star Lesley Stahl at the White House on Tuesday and then taunted her on Twitter, posting a short behind-the-scenes video of her at the taping and noting that she had not been wearing a mask in the clip.

Mr. Trump then threatened to post his interview with Ms. Stahl ahead of its intended broadcast time on Sunday evening, calling it “FAKE and BIASED.”

…Everyone should compare this terrible Electoral Intrusion with the recent interviews of Sleepy Joe Biden!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 20, 2020

The spectacle of a president, two weeks from Election Day, picking a fight with the nation’s most popular television news program began on Tuesday after Mr. Trump grew irritated with Ms. Stahl’s questions, according to two people familiar with the circumstances of the taping.

One person briefed on what took place said that Mr. Trump had spent more than 45 minutes filming with Ms. Stahl and her CBS News crew, and that the taping had not wrapped up when the president’s aides had expected it to.

So Mr. Trump cut the interview short and then declined to participate in a “walk and talk” segment with Ms. Stahl and Vice President Mike Pence, the people said.

It appeared that Ms. Stahl’s approach did not sit well with the president. Hours later, Mr. Trump said on Twitter that he was considering posting the interview with Ms. Stahl “PRIOR TO AIRTIME!” He described it as a “terrible Electoral Intrusion” and suggested that his Democratic opponent, Joseph R. Biden Jr., had been treated less harshly by journalistic interlocutors.

Imagine using the term “journalistic interlocutors” in a news article.

And then look at the way she ends the article – this is the last paragraph:

Mr. Biden taped his interview with the “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell on Monday. He has not yet tweeted about it.

That’s supposed to be a sensible chuckle for the really smart goyim who really see how silly the orange man truly is.

The NYT is an absolute scam by Jews to make midwits and women feel like they’re smart, and it’s really disgusting.

The Jews will appeal to any weakness in the goyim.

But the appeal to the unearned vanity of midwits is the most offensive to me personally.

Here’s Trump bragging about trolling Stahl:

The interview itself is not out yet.

But I do expect the Jews to be shocked at how little the goyim care about Leslie Stahl.

Listen, Jews: it’s hard to make the goyim care about some young plastic surgery Jew woman. But a 75-year-old plastic surgery Jew woman? No one wants that.

This horrible Jewish woman Susan Wojcicki thinks she is qualified to police the thoughts of people on the Internet. She reaffirmed this stance during an interview on the Jewish 60 Minutes show.

The Jewish 60 Minutes show, which airs on the subversive Jewish media network CBS, broadcast an interview with the Jewish CEO of YouTube Susan Wojcicki last night.

Just to give you an idea of how Jewish this whole thing was, Wojcicki was interviewed by the Jewish reporter Lesley Stahl. There was no attempt to even hide how Jewish this piece was. It was just Jews talking about how important it is to shut down free speech.

To promote their segment, 60 Minutes put out a ridiculous tweet falsely claiming that YouTube is an open platform committed to free speech. The accompanying clip contained some footage of Nick Fuentes and other people who the Jews consider to be hateful people. They also implied that YouTube should be banning more content.

YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki tries to police the site while maintaining an open platform. But the company’s commitment to free speech can lead to a narrow definition of what videos are considered harmful. https://t.co/xdCP0J2y46 pic.twitter.com/zzvhESxZ2i

At time of writing, the 60 Minutes tweet was getting ratioed quite severely.

Everyone knows that YouTube is not an open platform that is committed to free speech. To even claim this after everything we’ve seen from this diabolical Jewish website is the most insane thing imaginable. It is just an outright lie to say this.

YouTube has banned Alex Jones and countless other people for their political views. They have justified these bans by constantly redefining their terms of service while claiming political speech they dislike is “hate speech.”

TruNews, a Christian-based media operation, just had their YouTube channel banned a few days ago after the Jewish Anti-Defamation League put them on a list of channels that they wanted shut down.

YouTube has banned us, again, all because of our Friday godcast. Watch what got us suspended for one week. It is still on our website. https://t.co/uNiSCPLTs9

There’s literally countless examples of YouTube censoring people for their political views while misconstruing their political views as “hate.”

60 Minutes also put out another stupid tweet showing a clip of Stahl and Wojcicki discussing how they determine what videos get banned. They comically talk about a World War II video showing Adolf Hitler. Wojcicki says that they banned the video because it was watermarked with the term “bloodtears1418.” Wojcicki goes on to talk about how 1418 is a number that White supremacists use, which Stahl confirms.

How does YouTube determine what videos are too hateful or violent for the site? The company’s CEO showed 60 Minutes some examples. https://t.co/s6KtiDF9qF pic.twitter.com/uJVYfNXptU

— 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) December 2, 2019

1418? Really?

Even the ADL doesn’t consider that a hateful number. They must be thinking of 1488.

But the fact that neither Wojcicki nor Stahl identified this mistake just undermines the premise that YouTube has any business in policing content.

On top of that, 60 Minutes posted an additional “overtime” segment on their YouTube channel implying that YouTube is allowed to censor certain types of speech while still maintaining their status as an open platform.

They obviously can’t maintain their status as a platform if they are selectively choosing what sort of lawful content is allowed or not allowed. That makes them a publisher and not a platform. But this was a piece put together by a bunch of Jews, so being truthful with their audience is hardly a priority.

The good news is that people aren’t being fooled by this Jewish 60 Minutes propaganda piece.

Even Dan Bongino, despite blaming the 60 Minutes piece on a liberal conspiracy, expressed extreme displeasure at what he saw.

Make absolutely NO MISTAKE, the @60Minutes piece on YouTube tonight is nothing more than a push by liberal activists to silence conservatives through corporate pressure. Liberals, and their media pals, DESPISE free speech.

— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) December 2, 2019

And here’s some other solid commentary on the 60 Minutes piece.

Had to read that twice.

“But the company’s commitment to free speech can lead to a narrow definition of what videos are considered harmful.”

“A narrow definition of what is harmful.”

The translation is “they are not censoring nearly enough. Too much free speech going on.” https://t.co/GU4QPrRgDI

All these powerful media groups are trying to get me deplatformed simply because I’m independent and telling the truth.

Yes, you read that right. Naked Ape. Nick Fuentes. 60 Minutes.

Also, notice how CBS snips out one fiery piece of Fuentes' show out of context in an effort to get him deplatformed. pic.twitter.com/Ie9FmDjesp

The entire 60 minutes YouTube segment was about preparing the public for the massive Dec 10th purge of “politically incorrect“ creators on Dec 10th and beyond.

This 60 Minutes YouTube special is too boomer to exist. It’s a geriatric reporter wondering how “offensive” videos get posted on the internet

— Scott Greer (@ScottMGreer) December 2, 2019

60 Minutes YouTube segment’s main point was demanding the platform censor “white nationalism” and Trump ads.

Pure Boomer trash

— Scott Greer (@ScottMGreer) December 2, 2019

This 60 Minutes piece on YouTube was just so unbelievably Jewish in nature. It was just a bunch of Jews getting together to lecture the goyim on why Jewish YouTube has the duty to censor free speech while simultaneously claiming that Jewish YouTube is a free speech site. It was 1984 doublethink on full display.

It is simply incomprehensible how people can’t see that Jews are at the center of this agenda to stifle free speech on the Internet. It’s right in your face with this 60 Minutes piece. You’d have to be blind not to see what’s going on.

Notice that, at no point in the article or the video is there any mention of a father… I’m sure it’s just a “coincidence” that all these boys convinced by their mothers that they’re actually girls either have no father at all, or a cuck who might as well be dead.

Daily Caller:

A 12-year-old Australian transgender boy, who transitioned into a girl two years ago, is featured in an upcoming episode of Australian “60 Minutes” – where he reveals that he no longer wants to be a girl.

After doctors diagnosed Patrick Mitchell with gender dysphoria he begged his mother to let him take female replacement hormones, The Independent reported.

More likely, it was the “mother” pestering him to do so. Women who don’t get smacked around on a regular basis turn into disgusting kike-like creatures whose sole purpose is to castrate every man they meet – literally or figuratively – until one of them starts kapowing them daily. Then they become their willing, mindless slaves.

The secret to a happy marriage

Gender dysphoria is considered by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to be a “mental disorder,” while the World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes it as a “mental illness.”

OMG! Doctors are literal nazis!

 “You wish you could just change everything about you, you just see any girl and you say I’d kill to be like that,” Mitchell says in the interview.

Sounds like a totally normal kid. Completely sane and with no mental disorders.

 Mitchell received support from his mother to begin transitioning, and after taking hormones, he began to grow breasts.

Also perfectly normal… unless you’re a NAZI, in which case your hatred makes you blind to the normality of a prepubescent boy growing tits.

 “In the beginning of 2017, teachers at school began to refer to him as a girl which triggered Mitchell to question if he had made the right decision,” the independent added.

After reflecting on the decision to become a girl, Mitchell decided that he no longer wanted to be a girl.

“I began to realize I was actually comfortable in my body. Every day I just felt better,” Mitchell said.

That’s the thing about mental illness – it’s not as comfortable in the real world as it is in your own fucked up head.

 Mitchell has stopped taking female hormones as he attempts to go back to being a boy and is expected to have surgery to remove the breasts he grew during his time as a girl.

If there are any kikes reading this – don’t be depressed. Even if this kid started fixing some of the damage your ideologies and your media has done, it’s already too late. The chances that he will ever have a normal are practically zero, you’ve done permanent damage to him. So you can keep on being happy about it, until people like me make sure you’ll never be happy about anything ever again.

It’s coming

President Donald Trump’s first big interview after winning was CBS’ 60 Minutes.

(You can watch the full thing on CBS’ website, with one of those annoying proprietary video players. Why people don’t put this stuff on YouTube, I have no idea.)

Trump certainly tried to be gracious and stick to the “come together” theme, which I think is good.

At the same time, he made it clear that there would be no cucking and they have to go back. Which is the most important thing of all. 2-3 million are going to be rounded up to begin with, as I wrote yesterday.

He also said what I said – that it is bad to attack foreigners and people shouldn’t do that. Of course, I haven’t really seen any actual cases of this happening. All of them seem to be hoaxes thus far. There have been no arrests. That of course does not mean you shouldn’t confront these people, tell them they have to go back.

He didn’t deny the plan to lock up Hillary Clinton, just avoided the question, sort of. I agree with that move. He needs to keep things chill on that front until he gets in and things start happening. The Clinton Foundation is still under investigation anyway, so that’s all happening regardless.

Abortion

Of interest here is the abortion issue. I know a lot of you are complaining that if we ban abortion, there will be too many Black and brown babies. This is true, maybe, but there is obviously no way around it. Trump notes that the judges will be pro-Second Amendment, implying this means they will have to be pro-life as well. You’re not going to find judges who are one of those things and not the other.

Anyway, I’m totally for banning abortion, because it will end feminism – especially in combination with fixing these insane child-support laws, which we’re also going to do. Of course, brown people are much more likely to have illegal abortions. Which is fine. But also, the thing is, once feminism is gone, liberalism will be gone – it simply cannot exist without it. Women feminism is gone, women will demanding they be protected from these colored people. We will be able to remove them all, send the Blacks to Africa or to reservations or what have you.

Ending abortion is good. Don’t worry about it. If there is a brown baby boom because of it (and again, I dont’ think there will be, because I think they’ll go the illegal route), they will all be gone before they’re 10-years-old anyway.

Most of the rest of the interview was about Twitter.

Full transcript follows.

Lesley Stahl: Well, congratulations, Mr. Trump.

Donald Trump: Thank you.

Lesley Stahl: You’re president-elect.

Donald Trump: Thank you.

Lesley Stahl: How surprised were you?

Donald Trump: Well, I really felt we were doing well. I was on a string of about 21 straight days of speeches, sometimes many a day and the last two days I really– I really had a pretty wild time. I did six speeches and then I did seven and–

Lesley Stahl: But everyone thought you were going to lose.
“I’ve done a lotta big things, I’ve never done anything like this. It is so big, it is so– it’s so enormous, it’s so amazing.” President-elect Donald Trump

Donald Trump: I know, I did my final speech in Michigan at 1:00 in the morning and we had 31,000 people, many people outside of the arena. And I felt– when I left, I said, “How are we gonna lose?” We set it up a day before. And we had all of these people. And it was literally at 1:00 in the morning and I said, “This doesn’t look like second place.” So we were really happy, I mean, it was– these are great people.

Lesley Stahl: On election night, I heard you went completely silent. Was it a sort of realization of the enormity of this thing for you?

Donald Trump: I think so, it’s enormous. I’ve done a lotta big things, I’ve never done anything like this. It is so big, it is so– it’s so enormous, it’s so amazing.

Lesley Stahl: It kind of just took your breath away? Couldn’t talk?

Donald Trump: A li– a little bit, a little bit. And I think– I realized that this is a whole different life for me now.

Lesley Stahl: Hillary called you. Tell us about that phone call.

Donald Trump: So Hillary called and it was a lovely call and it was a tough call for her, I mean, I can imagine. Tougher for her than it would have been for me. And for me, it would have been very, very difficult. She couldn’t have been nicer. She just said, “Congratulations, Donald, well done.” And I said, “I want to thank you very much, you were a great competitor.” She is very strong and very smart.

Lesley Stahl: What about Bill Clinton? Did you talk to him?

Donald Trump: He did, he called the next day.

Lesley Stahl: Really? What did he say?

Donald Trump: He actually called last night.

Lesley Stahl: What did he say?

Donald Trump: And he– he couldn’t have been more gracious. He said it was an amazing run. One of the most amazing he’s ever seen.

Lesley Stahl: He said that.

Donald Trump: He was very, very– really, very nice.

Lesley Stahl: It was a pretty nasty campaign. Do you regret any of the things you said about her?

Donald Trump: Well, it was a double-side nasty.

Donald Trump: I mean they were tough and I was tough and– do I regret? I mean, I’m sitting here with you now and we’re gonna do a great job for the country. We’re going to make America great again, I mean, that’s what– it– it began with that and that’s where we are right now. There are so many–

Lesley Stahl: So no– no regrets about–

Donald Trump: I can’t regret. No– I wish it were softer, I wish it were nicer, I wish maybe even it was more on policy, or whatever you want to say. But– but I will say that– it really– it really is something that I’m very proud of I mean it was a tremendous campaign.

Lesley Stahl: Can we talk about yesterday with President Obama?

Donald Trump: Sure.

Lesley Stahl: 90 minutes. You were scheduled for what? 15?

Donald Trump: 15 max.

[Barack Obama: We talked about foreign policy, we talked about domestic policy.]

Donald Trump: This was just going to be a quick little chat and it lasted close to an hour and a half. And it could have gone on for four hours. I mean it was– just– in fact, it was almost hard breaking it up because we had so many things to say. And he told me– the good things and the bad things, there are things that are tough right now–

Lesley Stahl: Like what?

Donald Trump: Well…

Lesley Stahl: Give us some meat.

Donald Trump: Well, look I don’t want to divulge, but we talked about the Middle East, that’s tough. It’s a tough situation. I wanted to get his full view and I got his, you know I got a good part of his view.

Lesley Stahl: Uh-huh.

Donald Trump: And I like having that because I’m going to be inheriting that in a short period of time. I found him to be terrific. I found him to be– very smart and very nice. Great sense of humor, as much as you can have a sense of humor talking about tough subjects, but we were talking about some pretty tough subjects.

Donald Trump:–and we were talking about some victories, also, some things that– that he feels very good about. But–

Lesley Stahl: Like–

Donald Trump: Well, what I really wanted to focus on was– the Middle East, North Korea, Obamacare is tough. You know, healthcare is a tough situation.

Lesley Stahl: Oh, I bet he asked you not to undo it.

Donald Trump: Well, he didn’t ask me, no, he told me– you know, the merits and the difficulties. And we understand that.

Lesley Stahl: You looked pretty sober sitting there in the Oval Office, did something wash over you or–

Donald Trump: No, I think I’m a sober person. I think the press tries to make you into something a little bit different. In my case, a little bit of a wild man. I’m not. I’m actually not. I’m a very sober person. But it was respect for the office, it was respect for the president. Again, I never met him before, but we had– we had a very good chemistry going. And– and I really found—it might not be that I agree with him, but I really found the conversation unbelievably interesting.

Lesley Stahl: Was it at all awkward, at all, given what you’ve said about each other? You said he was not born in this country, he said things about you, he said you’re– unqualified–

Donald Trump: You know what, it was a very– it was a very interesting thing because– I mean, few people have asked me from my family, what was that first period of time like?

Lesley Stahl: Yeah.

Donald Trump: We never discussed what was said about each other. I said terrible things about him, he said terrible things about me. We never ever discussed what we said about each other—

Lesley Stahl: There was no awkwardness?

Donald Trump: I’ll be honest, from my standpoint zero, zero. And that’s strange. I’m actually surprised to tell you that. It’s– you know, a little bit strange.

Lesley Stahl: Do you think that– that your election is a repudiation of his presidency?

Donald Trump: No, I think it’s a moment in time where politicians for a long period of time have let people down. They’ve let ‘em down on the job front. They’ve even let ‘em down in terms of the war front. You know, we’ve been fighting this war for 15 years–

Lesley Stahl: This was the message of your campaign.

Donald Trump: We’ve spent $6 trillion in the Middle East, $6 trillion, we could have rebuilt our country twice. And you look at our roads and our bridges and our tunnels and all of the– and our airports are, like, obsolete. And I think it was just a repudiation of what’s been taking place over a longer period of time than that.

Lesley Stahl: You know, you surprised everyone by winning the primaries, beating 17 other Republicans or 16, whatever– people are really surprised that you won this election. Are people going to be surprised about how you conduct yourself as president?

Donald Trump: You know, I’ll conduct myself– in a very good manner, but depends on what the situation is, sometimes you have to be rougher. When I look at– when I look at the world and you look at how various places are taking advantage of our country, and I say it, and I say it very proudly, it’s going to be America first. It’s not going to be what we’re doing—we, we’ve lost– we’re losing this country. We’re losing this country. That’s why I won the election. And by the way, won it easily, I mean I won easily. That was big, big.

Lesley Stahl: Are you going to sometimes have that same rhetoric that you had on the stump? Or are you going to reign it in?

Donald Trump: Well, sometimes you need a certain rhetoric to get people motivated. I don’t want to be just a little nice monotone character and in many cases I will be.

Lesley Stahl: Can you be?

Donald Trump: Sure I can. I can be easily, that’s easier. Honestly to do that, it’s easier.

Lesley Stahl: So let’s go through very quickly some of the promises you made and tell us if you’re going to do what you said or you’re going to change it in any way. Are you really going to build a wall?

Donald Trump: Yes.

Lesley Stahl: They’re talking about a fence in the Republican Congress, would you accept a fence?

Donald Trump: For certain areas I would, but certain areas, a wall is more appropriate. I’m very good at this, it’s called construction.

Lesley Stahl: So part wall, part fence?

Donald Trump: Yeah, it could be – it could be some fencing.

Lesley Stahl: What about the pledge to deport millions and millions of undocumented immigrants?

Donald Trump: What we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers, we have a lot of these people, probably two million, it could be even three million, we are getting them out of our country or we are going to incarcerate. But we’re getting them out of our country, they’re here illegally. After the border is secured and after everything gets normalized, we’re going to make a determination on the people that you’re talking about who are terrific people, they’re terrific people but we are gonna make a determination at that– But before we make that determination– Lesley, it’s very important, we want to secure our border.

Lesley Stahl: So you were with Paul Ryan, you met with the Republican leadership, what was the– one thing that you all agreed you want to get done right away?

Donald Trump: Well, I would say there was more than one thing, there were three things, it was healthcare, there was immigration and there was a major tax bill lowering taxes in this country. We’re going to substantially simplify and lower the taxes–

Lesley Stahl: And you’ve got both Houses?

Donald Trump: And I have both Houses and we have the presidency, so we can do things–

Lesley Stahl: You can do things lickety-split.

Donald Trump: It’s been a long time since it’s happened.

Donald Trump: And they gave me a lot of credit. Don’t forget, I was abused four or five weeks ago, they said I was going to– instead of having all three, we would lose all three. So that was good. But those are the three things that we really discussed.

Lesley Stahl: You said that lobbyists owned politicians because they give them money.

Donald Trump: Yeah.

Lesley Stahl: You admitted you used to do it yourself. You have a transition team—

Donald Trump: And when you say lobbyists, lobbyists and special interests.

Lesley Stahl: And you want to get rid of all of that?

Donald Trump: I don’t like it, no.

Lesley Stahl: You don’t like it, but your own transition team, it’s filled with lobbyists.

Donald Trump: That’s the only people you have down there.

Lesley Stahl: You have lobbyists from Verizon, you have lobbyists from the oil gas industry, you have food lobby.

Donald Trump: Sure. Everybody’s a lobbyist down there–

Lesley Stahl: Well, wait

Donald Trump: That’s what they are. They’re lobbyists or special interests—

Lesley Stahl: On your own transition team.

Donald Trump:–we are trying to clean up Washington. Look–

Lesley Stahl: How can you claim–

Donald Trump: Everything, everything down there– there are no people– there are all people that work — that’s the problem with the system, the system. Right now, we’re going to clean it up. We’re having restrictions on foreign money coming in, we’re going to put on term limits, which a lot of people aren’t happy about, but we’re putting on term limits. We’re doing a lot of things to clean up the system. But everybody that works for government, they then leave government and they become a lobbyist, essentially. I mean, the whole place is one big lobbyist.

Lesley Stahl: But you’re, but you’re basically saying you have to rely on them, even though you want to get rid of them?

Donald Trump: I’m saying that they know the system right now, but we’re going to phase that out. You have to phase it out.

Lesley Stahl: Let’s talk about your cabinet.

Donald Trump: OK.

Lesley Stahl: Have you made any decisions?

Donald Trump: Yes.

Lesley Stahl: Tell us.

Donald Trump: Well, I can’t tell you that, but I have made–

Lesley Stahl: Oh, come on—

Donald Trump: You know the amazing thing to show you the incredible nature of our country. First of all, every major leader and probably less than major le- has called me, I’ve spoken to many of them and I’ll call the rest of them, but and I said, “Boy, this really shows you how powerful our country is.” France and U.K. and I mean everybody, all over Asia—and very, just to congratulate. But it really shows the power of our country.

Lesley Stahl: One of the things you’re going to obviously get an opportunity to do, is name someone to the Supreme Court. And I assume you’ll do that quickly?

Donald Trump: Yes. Very important.

Lesley Stahl: During the campaign, you said that you would appoint justices who were against abortion rights. Will you appoint– are you looking to appoint a justice who wants to overturn Roe v. Wade?

Donald Trump: So look, here’s what’s going to happen– I’m going to– I’m pro-life. The judges will be pro-life. They’ll be very—

Lesley Stahl: But what about overturning this law–

Donald Trump: Well, there are a couple of things. They’ll be pro-life, they’ll be– in terms of the whole gun situation, we know the Second Amendment and everybody’s talking about the Second Amendment and they’re trying to dice it up and change it, they’re going to be very pro-Second Amendment. But having to do with abortion if it ever were overturned, it would go back to the states. So it would go back to the states and–

Lesley Stahl: Yeah, but then some women won’t be able to get an abortion?

Donald Trump: No, it’ll go back to the states.

Lesley Stahl: By state—no some —

Donald Trump: Yeah.

Donald Trump: Yeah, well, they’ll perhaps have to go, they’ll have to go to another state.

Lesley Stahl: And that’s OK?

Donald Trump: Well, we’ll see what happens. It’s got a long way to go, just so you understand. That has a long, long way to go.

Lesley Stahl: Are you in any way intimidated, scared about this enormous burden, the gravity of what you’re taking on?

Donald Trump: No.

Lesley Stahl: Not at all?

Donald Trump: I respect it. But I’m not scared by it.

Lesley Stahl: Now you’re not scared, but there are people, Americans, who are scared and some of them are demonstrating right now, demonstrating against you, against your rhetoric–

Donald Trump: That’s only because they don’t know me. I really believe that’s only because–

Lesley Stahl: Well, they listened to you in the campaign and that’s–

Donald Trump: I just don’t think they know me.

Lesley Stahl: Well, what do you think they’re demonstrating against?

Donald Trump: Well, I think in some cases, you have professional protesters. And we had it– if you look at WikiLeaks, we had–

Lesley Stahl: You think those people down there are—

Donald Trump: Well Lesley—

Lesley Stahl: are professional?

Donald Trump: Oh, I think some of them will be professional, yeah–

Lesley Stahl: OK, but what about – they’re in every city.

Lesley Stahl: When they demonstrate against you and there are signs out there, I mean, don’t you say to yourself, I guess you don’t, you know, do I have to worry about this? Do I have to go out and assuage them? Do I have to tell them not to be afraid? They’re afraid.

Donald Trump: I would tell them don’t be afraid, absolutely.

Lesley Stahl: But that’s not what you’re saying, I said it-

Donald Trump: Oh, I think, no, no, I think– I am saying it, I’ve been saying it.

Lesley Stahl: OK.

Donald Trump: Don’t be afraid. We are going to bring our country back. But certainly, don’t be afraid. You know, we just had an election and sort of like you have to be given a little time. I mean, people are protesting. If Hillary had won and if my people went out and protested, everybody would say, “Oh, that’s a terrible thing.” And it would have been a much different attitude. There is a different attitude. You know, there is a double standard here.

It has been five full days since the election and anti-Trump demonstrations, driven in part by Hillary Clinton’s edge in the popular vote, have been significant.

When we interviewed him on Friday afternoon Mr. Trump said he had not heard about some of the acts of violence that are popping up in his name… or against his supporters.

Nor he said had he heard about reports of racial slurs and personal threats against African Americans, Latinos and gays by some of his supporters.

Donald Trump: I am very surprised to hear that– I hate to hear that, I mean I hate to hear that–

Lesley Stahl: But you do hear it?

Donald Trump: I don’t hear it—I saw, I saw one or two instances…

Lesley Stahl: On social media?

Donald Trump: But I think it’s a very small amount. Again, I think it’s–

Lesley Stahl: Do you want to say anything to those people?

Donald Trump: I would say don’t do it, that’s terrible, ‘cause I’m gonna bring this country together.

Lesley Stahl: They’re harassing Latinos, Muslims–

Donald Trump: I am so saddened to hear that. And I say, “Stop it.” If it– if it helps. I will say this, and I will say right to the cameras: Stop it.

During the campaign Mr. Trump said he would appoint a special prosecutor to look into Hillary Clinton’s email issue.

So we asked him if he plans to carry that out.

That part of the interview and a discussion with the next first lady, Melania Trump, when we come back.
The First Lady

On Friday, Donald Trump announced that he was changing the head of his transition team. Governor Chris Christie was replaced by Vice President-elect Mike Pence. Mr. Trump also added his three older children to the transition team.

Between now and Inauguration Day, the team must fill the new administration with 4,000 political appointees. That’s 4,000 new hires in just nine weeks.

When we talked to Donald Trump on Friday, the enormity and gravity of his new role was just sinking in. He was subdued. We wondered if as president he planned to temper his rhetoric, lower the flame.

Lesley Stahl: I want to ask you about the tweet that you put out, I think it was last night or the night before, about these demonstrators.

Donald Trump: Yeah.

Lesley Stahl: You said that they were professionals—and you said it was unfair.

Donald Trump: I said some of them. Some of them are —

Lesley Stahl: But are you going to be tweeting and whatever you’re upset about just put out there when you’re president?

Donald Trump: So it’s a modern form of communication, between Face– you know, Facebook and Twitter and I guess Instagram, I have 28 million people. 28 million people–

Lesley Stahl: So you are going to keep it up?

Donald Trump: It’s a great form of communication. Now, do I say I’ll give it up entirely and throw out, that’s a tremendous form– I pick up– I’m picking up now, I think I picked up yesterday 100,000 people. I’m not saying I love it, but it does get the word out. When you give me a bad story or when you give me an inaccurate story or when somebody other than you and another network, or whatever, ‘cause of course, CBS would never do a thing like that right? I have a method of fighting back. That’s very tough–

Lesley Stahl: But you’re going to do that as president?

Donald Trump: I’m going to do very restrained, if I use it at all, I’m going to do very restrained. I find it tremendous. It’s a modern form of communication. There should be nothing you should be ashamed of. It’s– it’s where it’s at. I– I do believe this, I really believe that, um– the fact that I have such power in terms of numbers with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, et cetera, I think it helped me win all of these races where they’re spending much more money than I spent. You know, I spent my money. A lot of my money. And I won. I think that social media has more power than the money they spent, and I think maybe to a certain extent, I proved that.

Lesley Stahl: Are you going to ask for a special prosecutor to investigate Hillary Clinton over her emails? And are you, as you had said to her face, going to try and put her in jail?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ll tell you what I’m going to do, I’m going to think about it. Um, I feel that I want to focus on jobs, I want to focus on healthcare, I want to focus on the border and immigration and doing a really great immigration bill. We want to have a great immigration bill. And I want to focus on all of these other things that we’ve been talking about.

Lesley Stahl: You– you know, you–

Donald Trump: And get the country straightened away.

Lesley Stahl: You called her “crooked Hillary,” said you wanted to get in jail, your people in your audiences kept saying, “Lock em’ up.”

Donald Trump: Yeah. She did–

Lesley Stahl: Do you—

Donald Trump: She did some bad things, I mean she did some bad things–

Lesley Stahl: I know, but a special prosecutor? You think you might…

Donald Trump: I don’t want to hurt them. I don’t want to hurt them. They’re, they’re good people. I don’t want to hurt them. And I will give you a very, very good and definitive answer the next time we do 60 Minutes together.

With that…

We were joined by the next first lady, Melania Trump. She’ll be only the second foreign-born first lady. She’s from Slovenia. John Quincy Adams’ wife Louisa was the first.

Lesley Stahl: You know, I asked your husband if he was at all intimidated and scared about what lies ahead. The enormity. You’re about to be first lady. Are you a little nervous about it? Little tense? A little–

Melania Trump: Well, there is a lot of responsibilities. And it’s– a lot of work needs to be done. And– it’s– your– stuff on your shoulders. And– we will take care of it– day by day. I will stay true to myself. I’m very strong and um– tough and confident. And I will listen myself and I will do what is right and what feels to my heart.

Lesley Stahl: What kind of a first lady do you think she’s going to be?

Donald Trump: She will be terrific. She is very strong and very confident, but she’s very warm. And I think she’ll have a platform where she’ll really be able to do a lot of good. And that’s what she wants to do.

Lesley Stahl: You know, first ladies usually have a cause. And you’ve already said you’re interested in speaking out against bullying on social media.

Melania Trump: I think it’s very important because a lot of children and teenagers are getting hurt. And we need to teach them how to talk to each other, how to treat each other and to, to be able to connect with each other on the right way.

It’s an ironic choice since her own husband sent out a stream of pretty nasty tweets during the campaign.

Lesley Stahl: What about your husband’s tweeting?

Melania Trump: Well, sometimes he– it got him in trouble. But it helped a lot as well. He had unbelievable following.

Lesley Stahl: So you never say to him, “Come on”?

Melania Trump: I did.

Donald Trump: She does–

Melania Trump: I–

Melania Trump: You know, of course, I did many times, from the beginning of the campaign. But…

Lesley Stahl: Does he listen to you?

Melania Trump: Sometimes he listens, sometimes he doesn’t–

Donald Trump: I’m not a big tweeter. I mean, I don’t do too many, but they hit home. And they have to get a point across.

Lesley Stahl: If he does something that you think crossed a line, will you tell him?

Melania Trump: Yes, I tell him all the time.

Lesley Stahl: All the time?

Melania Trump: All the time.

Lesley Stahl: And does–

Melania Trump: And–

Lesley Stahl: –he listen? Does he–

Melania Trump: I think he hears me. But he will do what he wants to do on the end. He’s an adult. He knows the consequences. And I give him my opinion. And he could do whatever he likes with it.

Lesley Stahl: Did you ask Melania sort of, for permission, in a way, to run for president? Did you get her approval?

Donald Trump: Well, I actually sat down with Melania and my whole family and we talked about it. Don, Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany. Barron to a lesser extent, but Barron too. Um, because in a way he’s affected every bit as much. Maybe more.

Lesley Stahl: Maybe more.

Donald Trump: And so we all had a dinner and I said, “I would like to do this. I think I can do a great job.” And I wanted to get, number one, a consensus and number two, ideally, their permission. And they all agreed.

Lesley Stahl: Your son Barron, what is he, 10?

Melania Trump: 10.

Lesley Stahl: 10. He was on camera the whole time you were giving your acceptance speech. Does he get it? Does he know?

Melania Trump: He knows. He knows–

Lesley Stahl: He knows?

Melania Trump: –what’s going on. And, he’s very proud of his dad.

Lesley Stahl: Now– you met with Michelle Obama yesterday. Was there any awkwardness, given–

Melania Trump: No.

Lesley Stahl: –what everybody was saying about everybody in the campaign?

Melania Trump: No. I didn’t feel it.

Lesley Stahl: Not at all?

Melania Trump: No.

Lesley Stahl: Tell us about the meeting.

Melania Trump: Yes, she was a gracious host. We had a great time and we talk about raising children in the White House. She was very warm and very nice.

Lesley Stahl: You know, she raised the two kids in the White House. But she had her mother living there. That’s an enormous help. Your parents are here, right?

Melania Trump: They’re here.

Lesley Stahl: Will they go to Washington with you?

Melania Trump: They might. We will see. We will discuss that.

Lesley Stahl: Are you prepared, both of you, for the lack of privacy and the intense scrutiny? And you know, first ladies are really criticized if one little hair’s out of place. Are you both prepared for this?

Melania Trump: We are used to it.

Donald Trump: I will say, it is on a different scale now, ‘cause I’ve had a lot. But I’ve never had anything like this.

Lesley Stahl: You won’t be able to walk down the street–

Melania Trump: I didn’t do that for two years already, so you know, it will just continue. It’s another level, but it will continue.

At that point, the discussion turned back to some of the thornier issues Mr. Trump faces.

Lesley Stahl: FBI director James Comey. Are you going to ask for his resignation?

Donald Trump: I think that I would rather not comment on that yet. I don’t– I haven’t made up my mind. I respect him a lot. I respect the FBI a lot. I think —

Lesley Stahl: Even though they leak so much?

Donald Trump: Well, there’s been a lotta leaking, there’s no question about that. But I would certainly like to talk to him. And see him. This is a tough time for him. And I would like to talk to him before I’d answer a question like that.

Lesley Stahl: Sounds like you’re not sure.

Donald Trump: Well, sure, I’m not sure. I’d wanna see, you know, he may have had very good reasons for doing what he did.

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna release your tax returns?

Donald Trump: At the appropriate time, I will release them. But right now I’m under routine audit. Nobody cares. The only one who cares is, you know, you and a few people that asked that question. Obviously, the public didn’t care because I won the election very easily. So they don’t care. I never thought they did care.

Lesley Stahl: Now, for months, you were running around saying that the system is rigged, the whole thing was rigged. You tweeted once that the Electoral College is a disaster for democracy.

Donald Trump: I do.

Lesley Stahl: So do you still think it’s rigged?

Donald Trump: Well, I think the electoral ca– look, I won with the Electoral College.

Lesley Stahl: Exactly.But do you think–

Donald Trump: You know, it’s–

Lesley Stahl: –it’s rigged?

Donald Trump: Yeah, some of the election locations are. Some of the system is. I hated–

Lesley Stahl: Even though you won you’re saying that–

Donald Trump: I hated– well, you know, I’m not going to change my mind just because I won. But I would rather see it where you went with simple votes. You know, you get 100 million votes and somebody else gets 90 million votes and you win. There’s a reason for doing this because it brings all the states into play. Electoral College and there’s something very good about that. But this is a different system. But I respect it. I do respect the system.

Lesley Stahl: What about vacations? You’re not going to take any vacations? You’ve said that.

Donald Trump: We have so much work. There’s so much work to be done. And I want to get it done for the people. I want to get it done. We’re lowering taxes, we’re taking care of health care. I mean, there’s just so much to be done. So I don’t think we’ll be very big on vacations, no.

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a — I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

In a moment, the Trump children join us and we will ask the president-elect where he stands on gay marriage, Obamacare, and ISIS.

On Tuesday, Donald Trump reached deep into America’s ranks of the discouraged and neglected, a largely white constituency. They feel their America hasn’t been great for a long time. And they accepted a promise to make it great again.

But Mr. Trump’s appeal wasn’t just to the disaffected. A map on election night was a sea of red, as he won support across the traditionally Republican South, but also deep into what used to be the blue wall of the Midwest.

Hillary Clinton came up short among her own supporters in large cities and affluent suburbs, among minorities and especially women. Just 51 percent of college-educated white women voted to make her the first female president. Her base didn’t come with the enthusiasm and the turnout she needed to fend off Donald Trump’s new and energized coalition.

On Friday Mr. Trump’s four older children – Tiffany, Donald, Jr., Eric And Ivanka — joined us to talk about their father’s surprising victory.

Lesley Stahl: Set the scene. It’s election night. Your father– no one’s expecting him to win and it begins to dawn on you. Tell us about being in that room.

Eric Trump: You start to see the states falling. You start seeing Florida come in and he was declared the winner. And then you saw Ohio, you saw North Carolina. You saw Pennsylvania. You saw Wisconsin. I mean, you saw all these great states – they’re all falling. And I think it was when we got Pennsylvania that we knew. And it was amazing. We were high fiving and we were all hugging as a family. And I actually think our father was the calmest of all of us even though he was really obviously the center of attention. So–

Lesley Stahl: He went quiet is what I heard.

Eric Trump: –it’s– it’s–

Lesley Stahl: –is what I heard.

Eric Trump: –it’s a moment I’ll never forget, I can tell you that. I mean, the team was around and everybody’s cheering. And it was just– it was– it was a beautiful night.

Ivanka Trump: It is hard to put into words the experience or the emotion when your father becomes president of the United States of America. We had enormous pride, joy. It’s incredibly exciting. And we’re very grateful for the opportunity. And we take that opportunity very seriously.

Lesley Stahl: Tiffany?

Tiffany Trump: I mean I don’t think we can really prepare for our father becoming president. But we were all there together with everyone that’s worked so hard. And my dad has worked so hard. And it’s just – it’s really awe-inspiring.

At some point that night and into the next day, calls from well-wishers started pouring in – including, Mr. Trump told us, from both ex-presidents Bush. Neither of whom supported him in the campaign.

Lesley Stahl: What did the b=Bushes say when they called you?

Donald Trump: Well, it was very interesting. I got a call from Father Bush, who is a wonderful man. And he just said, “Congratulations. It was an amazing campaign.” And then I got a call from George and he said– “Congratulations. It was great.” And, you know, look, it’s– it’s a tough situation. I went to war with Jeb. And Jeb’s a nice guy, but it was a nasty campaign. It was a nasty campaign. And, I mean, I’m disappointed in one thing. He signed a pledge and I don’t know how you sign a pledge and then you don’t honor it. It was a rough primary. It’s a rough primary. Although I think the general was probably just as tough. Probably as a combination, it was the roughest ever.

Lesley Stahl: Ivanka, you said that your father’s changed in the campaign. How has he changed?

Ivanka Trump: I think it’s impossible to go through this journey and not change for the better. You meet– and in my father’s case, literally millions of Americans, and they speak to you with a candor about their struggles, their challenges. They share with you their most intimate stories. So you connect with people in a different way. And you grow.

Lesley Stahl: Do you think your father’s changed?

Eric Trump: I think as a family, we’ve changed, to tell you the truth. I mean, how big this platform is, is incredible. And I have to say, one of the most rewarding things of my life, and I can speak on behalf of really all of us, it’s fighting by our father’s side every single day as you’ve gone through a grueling, grueling process like this.

Lesley Stahl: Don, did you discover something about your father that you didn’t know before?

Donald Trump, Jr.: You know– we– we know him pretty well. And we’ve got to, you know, be by his side for many years, both as a father and in business. So, you know– the tenacity that he’s always shown– was just there. But it was just so much more. When I was watching him working 20-hour days, doing seven major speeches to tens of thousands of people and just saying, “Well, it wasn’t triage. Which state are we gonna do today,” it’s, “We’re just gonna do ‘em all. We’re gonna speak to all of these people.” And I think people saw that energy. They fed off that energy. That energy was so much of the movement– that he was able to create. And, you know– it– it only furthered what I already knew.

Lesley Stahl: I want to ask you all about something that’s going on right now around the country. A lot of people are afraid. They’re really afraid. African Americans think there’s a target on their back. Muslims are terrified.

Donald Trump: I think it’s horrible if that’s happening. I think it’s built up by the press because, frankly, they’ll take every single little incident that they can find in this country, which could’ve been there before. If I weren’t even around doing this, and they’ll make into an event because that’s the way the press is.

Lesley Stahl: Do any of you want to say anything about this fear that’s out there?

Donald Trump, Jr.: I– I think the fears, you know, while they may be there, some fabricated, some not– are totally unfounded.

Lesley Stahl: One of the groups that’s expressing fear are the LGBTQ group. You–

Donald Trump: And yet I mentioned them at the Republican National Convention. And–

Lesley Stahl: You did.

Donald Trump: Everybody said, “That was so great.” I have been, you know, I’ve been-a supporter.

Lesley Stahl: Well, I guess the issue for them is marriage equality. Do you support marriage equality?

Donald Trump: It– it’s irrelevant because it was already settled. It’s law. It was settled in the Supreme Court. I mean it’s done.

Lesley Stahl: So even if you appoint a judge that–

Donald Trump: It’s done. It– you have– these cases have gone to the Supreme Court. They’ve been settled. And, I’m fine with that.

Lesley Stahl: One of the issues that has come up in the campaign is your father’s temperament. And he has himself has said, “If someone insults me or says something unkind about me, I’m gonna strike back.” And now people are saying, “Well, maybe he should kinda soften that, control that a little.” What– how do you think he’s going to comport himself as president?

Eric Trump: I think very presidential. At the same time, my father, if he needs to be a fighter, he can be a fighter. And I think this country, quite frankly, needs a fighter. And I think that’s what this country elected.

Donald Trump: They spent $1 billion against me on the word “Temperament.” It was given by Madison Avenue. And they thought that, by temperament, they could maybe, you know, win the election. Obviously, it didn’t work because we’re here and they’re not. And I think my strongest asset is my temperament because I have a temperament where we win and we’re going to start winning again. We’re going to win on trade, we’re going to win at the borders, we’re going to knock out ISIS.

Lesley Stahl: You have said that you’re gonna destroy ISIS. Now, how are you going to?

Donald Trump: I don’t tell you that. I don’t tell you that.

Lesley Stahl: Yeah, but what can —

Donald Trump: I’m not like the people going in right now and fighting Mosul and they announced it four months before they went into Mosul and everybody now is — it’s a tough fight because, number one, the people from the –leaders of ISIS have left. What do you– why do I have to tell you that?

Lesley Stahl: Troops on the ground?

Donald Trump: I’m not gonna say anything. I don’t want to tell them anything. I don’t want to tell anybody anything.

Lesley Stahl: Yeah, but what about—the American people.

Donald Trump: I wanna do the job. We have some great generals. We have great generals.

Lesley Stahl: You said you knew more than the generals about ISIS

Donald Trump: Well, I’ll be honest with you, I probably do because look at the job they’ve done. OK, look at the job they’ve done. They haven’t done the job. Now, maybe it’s leadership, maybe it’s something else. Who knows? All I can tell you is we’re going to get rid of ISIS.

Lesley Stahl: Let me ask you about Obamacare, which you say you’re going to repeal and replace. When you replace it, are you going to make sure that people with pre-conditions are still covered?

Donald Trump: Yes. Because it happens to be one of the strongest assets.

Lesley Stahl: You’re going to keep that?

Donald Trump: Also, with the children living with their parents for an extended period, we’re gonna–

Lesley Stahl: You’re gonna keep that–

Donald Trump: Very much try and keep that. Adds cost, but it’s very much something we’re going to try and keep.

Lesley Stahl: And there’s going to be a period if you repeal it and before you replace it, when millions of people could lose -– no?

Donald Trump: No, we’re going to do it simultaneously. It’ll be just fine. We’re not going to have, like, a two-day period and we’re not going to have a two-year period where there’s nothing. It will be repealed and replaced. And we’ll know. And it’ll be great health care for much less money. So it’ll be better health care, much better, for less money. Not a bad combination.

Lesley Stahl: Roles during the administration. Any of you want a job in your father’s administration?

Eric Trump: So we have an amazing company. You know, one of, I think, the fortunate things for my father and our father is that he was able to step out of the company to run for commander-in-chief. And I think he’s going to rely on us more than ever. And–

Lesley Stahl: So you’ll stay up here?

Eric Trump: So we’ll– we’ll– we’ll be in New York and we’ll take care of the business. I think we’re going to have a lot of fun doing it. And we’re going to make him very proud.

Lesley Stahl: People think that you’re going to be part of the administration, Ivanka.

Ivanka Trump: I’m– no. I’m going to be a daughter. But I’ve– I’ve said throughout the campaign that I am very passionate about certain issues. And that I want to fight for them.

Lesley Stahl: But you won’t be inside–

Ivanka Trump: Wage equality, childcare. These are things that are very important for me. I’m very passionate about education. Really promoting more opportunities for women. So you know, there’re a lot of things that I feel deeply, strongly about. But not in a formal administrative capacity.

Lesley Stahl: Let me ask whether any of you think that the campaign has hurt the Trump brand.

Ivanka Trump: I don’t think it matters. This is so much more important. And more serious. And– so th– I– I– you know, that’s the focus.

Donald Trump: I think what Ivanka trying to say, “Who cares? Who cares?” This is big league stuff. This is– this is our country. Our country is going bad. We’re going to save our country. I don’t care about hotel occupancy. It’s peanuts compared to what we’re doing. Health care, making people better. It’s unfair what’s happened to the people of our country and we’re going to change it. As simple as that.

Mostly, it is just him getting bullied by the interviewer,  Steve Kroft, about starting a war with Russia over moderate terrorists in Syria. No idea why he subjected himself to this. He should have gotten Charlie Rose to do it, go soft on him, pet him like a baby.

Obama does not deal well with criticism.

Kroft calls him weak, claims he’s bowing down to Putin, the whole thing. Similar to the way The Washington Post was chiding him a couple days ago – basically calling him a coward.

He also talks about Hillary’s email server, and defends her, saying it was somehow “not a situation in which America’s national security was endangered.”

He didn’t elaborate and Kroft did not go all aggro on him like he did Syria and Russia.

Overall, I’d say it’s worth watching. For those who don’t know, YouTube now has a fast-forward option if you click the gear. You can speed it up to make for easier watching. Interviewers and people being interviewed tend to talk very slow.

Just as a note, this interview was recorded Tuesday, and aired last night (Sunday). Not sure why they do that, except that they are still on this old model of TV shows having a specific air-time. Live streaming this sort of thing would certainly put an element of honesty into it which we haven’t seen since the advent of television journalism.

Here’s the full transcript.
