CBS copyrights 60 Minutes to prevent people from disproving their claims. I was going to watch the entire show, but I can’t take clips from it and post them, so what’s the point? If 60 Minutes were telling the truth, they would encourage viewers to share clips of their show. But they don’t.
CBS slams the door on fair use because they don’t want people exposing their 60 Minutes of Democrat Party propaganda and lies. Fair use says people can take short clips for things like criticism or commentary, but CBS slaps copyright strikes on videos faster than you can blink. That’s not protecting their work—it’s shutting down debate.
The 60 Minutes host began the show with his very serious and slow voice, pausing after each syllable for dramatic effect. He said, “It was nearly impossible to get anyone on camera for this story because of the fear now running through our system of justice.” The 60 Minutes host added, Trump is trying to destroy law firms, and that threatens the rule of law itself. He said, “That matters because lawsuits have been a check on the president’s power. Many firms and attorneys have been targeted. Among them, Marc Elias, a longtime opponent of Trump, who is the only lawyer the president has named who was willing to appear on 60 Minutes.”
That’s nonsense. The legal system is built for battles like this. Kicking off with Elias, a Trump-hater, and leaning on his narrative shows their bias. Elias, a top lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign, received funding from George Soros, including $5 million for the Voting Rights Trust in 2015 to challenge voter ID laws and other voting restrictions, $9.5 million for Priorities USA in 2016 to support broader Democratic initiatives, and $10 million for the Free Election Fund (formerly Democracy Docket Legal Fund) in 2023 through the Open Society Foundations to support voting rights litigation, including challenges to voter ID laws.
The 60 Minutes host said, “Elias and others are warning that Trump’s assault on the legal profession threatens the rule of law itself. Elias says that for him it began with the president’s personal grudge.”
Elias said, “Donald Trump hates me because I fight hard, and I fight for free and fair elections. I insist on fighting for democracy in court, fighting for voting rights in court, and insist on telling the truth about what the outcome of the 2020 election was.” He also said, “Donald Trump is the walking embodiment of everything that is wrong with the American political system.”
It’s hilarious that this top Hillary Clinton attorney said Donald Trump, who has been in office for not even five full years, is everything that is wrong with America’s political system. Yet Joe Biden was in Congress, Vice President, and President for 50 years, but he’s not the problem. Marc Elias claims Trump hates him for fighting for “free and fair elections.” But that is not true. Elias doesn’t fight for free and fair elections. President Trump rightfully calls out Elias, a Soros-funded Democrat lawyer, for undermining election integrity with anti-voter ID activism, mass mail-in voting schemes, and over 60 lawsuits that mocked Trump’s valid 2020 election concerns. Trump’s disdain reflects his commitment to secure, transparent elections, protecting American voters from Elias and his shady tactics.
Since I can’t post clips of 60 Minutes, I am not going to waste my time watching it any further. But there is one other clip I’d like to mention.
Marc Elias said, Trump is “trying to intimidate them the way in which a mob boss intimidates people in the neighborhood that he is seeking to either exact protection money from or engage in other nefarious conduct. I mean, the fact is that these law firms are being told, if you don’t play ball with us, maybe something really bad will happen to you.”
Elias’s claim that Trump intimidates law firms like a “mob boss” is pure fiction. The real coercion comes from Democrats and their allies, who manipulate elections with funding from figures like Soros, weaponize agencies like the DOJ to silence opposition, jail protesters, and pressure anyone challenging their authority. Trump is confronting this corrupt system head-on, fighting for voters and election integrity, and they’re desperate to stop him from exposing their lies, election fraud, and schemes.
Listen to Marc Elias call Hillary Clinton a “true American hero” at the video below. It’s at the very beginning.
