Nonpartisan Investigative Journalist. 5 Emmys, Murrow. RTs may be interesting/silly/wrong. I follow facts, not the crowd. Order "Follow the Science" today.
- My hot take? Zelenskyy was encouraged by certain European leaders to take on Trump in front of the media. It may have backfired. Hear me out.
- From a friend: “Did I miss where the Obamas gave up their mansions and riches to live humble lives ‘taking only what they need’ per the high moral values Michele’s mother taught her to live by?” 🤔
- Jaw dropping. NIH federal employees admit getting $100k a yr to do NOTHING. (While reporting at CBS, 2003 was the yr I learned there were more than just a few federal workers like this.) THREAD Here's a short video clip I call "The Man With No Work." @DrJBhattacharya @DOGE
00:00 - When did the change happen whereby insurance companies tell drs what they can and must do for a patient rather than drs deciding the best medical course of treatment? Why do the drs and medical assns accept this?

- The govt. needed 39,000 a day to sign up for Obamacare to meet its goals-- most would come in the early days of the website going live. The truth? I broke the news on CBS: 6 people signed up the first day. But govt. officials lied about that, covered it up, and pretended they
00:00 - By firing James Baker, former/disgraced FBI general counsel who was criminally investigated by DOJ but never charged, @elonmusk has done more to hold the FBI accountable for its wrongdoing over the past 7 yrs than any body that is supposed to oversee the agency.
- Quick story about govt. shutdowns and the theatrics behind them. One year when I was reporting at CBS News during a govt. shutdown, I think 2013, we were sincerely searching for real life impact. When we couldn't find any, *that* should have been part of the story. Instead, we
- Managers at CBS told me that Victoria Nuland was one of the administration folks calling them on backchannel to try to stop some of my reporting on various issues.This is perhaps the most famous intercepted phone call in American history. Tricky Vicky Nuland caught red-handed plotting the coup. Any questions?
