Share and tell CBS to air this! Sharyn Alfonsi, the veteran โ€œ60 Minutesโ€ correspondent who reported a segment about migrants sent to the El Salvadoran torture prison CECOT, just sent a blistering letter to colleagues, sounding the alarm that Bari Weiss spiked the story for political reasons.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.ย

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
ย 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, Iโ€™m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.
