Let's call this a Christmas Bonus. We hope you had a fantastic holiday and look forward to a great two weeks with some down time. I can't do a podcast on Friday due to travel but we have a couple nice segment from the radio show on Wednesday we think you may enjoy. First, will the over reaction to the Chiefs move to Kansas simmer down? Then, why don't the Chiefs have a site identified. The most obvious reason could be shocking to you. Also, if the Royals have a "complex" situation according to Senate president Ty Masterson but have met the December 31 STAR bond deadline, what is going on? There's only two things it could be. And finally, 60 Minutes pulled a hit piece on Trump last week and now the president is getting the last laugh. You have to hear this.

A 60 Minutes piece about CECOT and criminal gang bangers being deported from America there gets leaked online, days after new CBS News boss Bari Weiss killed it. The network becomes a focal point of liberal resistance to fair and balanced reporting. Late night TV is a nearly 100% bastion of leftist ideology as The View is revealed to only have had 2 "conservative" guests on during the entirety of 2025. Trump kills a ridiculous oceanic windmill program that was killing whales and democrats flip.
By Amy Goodman & Denis Moynihan News organizations cannot function under corrupt corporate control, answering to billionaire bosses and politicians. When that happens, democracy dies, and dictators rise.

I have no idea what holiday is attached to December 23rd, but I'm sure it's an amazing one. Trying to bring positivity to a week that featured "60 Minutes" falling apart and the Epstein file release being twisted by Trump's DOJ is quite a task. So in keeping with the season, let the silver linings be many and your holiday have all the cheer you deserve.Take care of one another.Love,-T

Today's Headlines: CBS News is in full self-own mode after killing a 60 Minutes segment on El Salvador's CECOT megaprison—right before airtime—because leadership said it didn't “advance the story” or sufficiently platform the administration, despite months of reporting and unanswered requests for comment. Predictably, the backlash ensured way more people now care about the story than ever would have otherwise. Meanwhile, a federal judge let former CECOT detainee, Kilmar Abrego-Garcia remain free while his case continues, openly questioning whether ICE can be trusted to follow court orders at all. The DOJ, in the spirit of never taking a hint, is also appealing the dismissal of Trump's revenge prosecutions against James Comey and Letitia James, insisting Halligan was totally legit, therefore the indictment stands. At the FBI, Director Kash Patel is reportedly cruising around in a custom armored BMW with massage seats—purchased at his request—because Suburbans apparently don't scream “covert.” Elsewhere, the US is chasing another Venezuelan oil tanker in international waters (Venezuela calls it piracy), Trump is back to casually trying to acquire Greenland via a part-time envoy who is also the governor of Louisiana, and the administration is pulling dozens of career diplomats from posts around the world for reasons it will not explain. Dems seek to find Bondi in contempt, because actual accountability isn't a thing anymore. And finally, Trump capped off 2025 by announcing plans for new “Trump Class” Navy warships, which feels spiritually correct as a closing note.

Today on America in the MorningThe New Naval Trump-Class At the White House, President Donald Trump unveiled a new class of Navy battleships Monday, describing them as a superior war fighting vessel to replace an “old and tired and obsolete” US fleet. Correspondent Clayton Neville reports the “Golden Fleet” of ships will also be named after him. Demands For More Epstein Transparency More Democrats and victims of Jeffrey Epstein are calling on Congress to push back against the Justice Department's piecemeal release of files related to Epstein, which comes as President Trump is sympathizing for one of his predecessors who's in those files, and that predecessor is now demanding anything about him in the Epstein files immediately be released to the public. The latest from correspondent Rich Johnson. Remembering Brown U Victims In Rhode Island, a Brown University custodian says he reported to campus authorities that he saw the shooting suspect casing buildings over several weeks, and a friend of alleged gunman recounted to the media that the shooter hated the school and the city of Providence. Meanwhile, in Alabama, Lisa Dwyer reports on a funeral for one of the victims in the Brown University shooting. 60 Minutes Under Fire The CBS program 60 Minutes finds itself deep in controversy after the show, at the order of CBS Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss pulled a segment at the last minute involving deportees taken to the CECOT prison in El Salvador.

Travel Trouble We are in the midst one of the busiest travel weeks of the year, with travelers taking to the roads, rails, and skies for Christmas and New Year's, and this year is expected to be one of the busiest ever. Correspondent Mike Hempen reports. US Names Greenland Envoy President Trump's appointment of a special envoy for Greenland drew an angry response from Denmark and reignited its concerns about U.S. efforts to control the strategic Arctic territory. Correspondent Clayton Neville says despite the rhetoric coming out of Europe, the president insists Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry is the right person to lead the administration's strategic plan. Girl's Deep-fake Images Leads To Her Being Expelled Several Louisiana middle schoolers shared A-I-generated nude images of one of their female classmates, but it was the 13-year-old girl who was expelled after a fight over those pictures. The details from correspondent Julie Walker. Offshore Wind Energy On Hold Several states are considering suing the Trump administration after some offshore wind projects were placed on hold over alleged national security risks. Correspondent Marcela Sanchez reports. Vance Pessimistic On Ukraine Peace Optimism is waning for Ukraine's success in fighting off Russia, as Vice President JD Vance doesn't appear to be holding out hope that Ukraine can hold on to certain parts of its homeland. Correspondent Joan Jones reports. Finally It's the tongue-in-cheek holiday for those disconnected from the holiday season.

CBS News pulled an investigative report on 60 Minutes just a day before it was set to air. It promised a look at allegations of abuse and torture suffered by men deported by the Trump administration and sent to a prison in El Salvador. Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss said the segment would eventually run, but it needed comment from the administration. William Brangham discussed more with Brian Stelter.

If Turning Point USA's AmericaFest is any indicator, MAGA, conservatives and conspiracy theorists are no longer aligned. From so called ‘Heritage Americans' being more important than other more recent Americans to America First policies and blatant racism/antisemitism, the speakers at the event ripped into each other. The infighting was so awkward, Erika Kirk said it “Feels like a Thanksgiving dinner where your family's hashing out the family business,” JD Vance tried to laugh it off but ended up doing little to bring people together.

The FBI says they will not pay the reward for the tipster who led to a breakthrough in the case of finding the person who carried out the shooting at Brown University and killing an MIT Professor. We think they need to pay up. CBS pulled a story that was set to air on 60 Minutes last night and it is causing controversy and leaving us asking questions over why the decision was made. Professor Jane Kirtley from the Hubbard School of Journalism at the U of M has some answers.

Some inside CBS called it censorship. Management said it was an editorial call. The truth is, right now, nobody outside the room actually knows.Instead of facts, the media and online commentary rushed to fill the void with certainty—proof once again that rage bait and tribal narratives matter more than restraint or honesty. In this episode, Chris makes a simple but unpopular case: it's okay to say “I don't know.”From journalism to investing to everyday life, pretending to have answers you don't have is how people get misled. Real intelligence isn't loud certainty—it's knowing your limits, doing the work, and letting the facts come in before drawing conclusions.

On CrimsonCast Ep. 1293, Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield react to Indiana football's national breakout moment on 60 Minutes and what it says about the program's new place in the sport — including the small details that made the segment resonate with a broader audience.Then it's full Rose Bowl / College Football Playoff quarterfinal mode as Indiana draws Alabama.
