Typo perhaps? It reads like 2025 unless Pelley delivered it before he was fired and didn’t correct the date?
Regardless: POWERFUL. The playbook Vought created based, sometimes word for word, action for action (the arch), on the Nazi’s plan.
The US survivors who fought that war - our antifa, my father (z”l) included - are soon no more. The Survivors still exist as do those to whom their stories were told. WHAT makes MAGAts - especially the J6ers and those who worship or defend them* - believe they will be remotely ok in all this?
Speaking truth to power when threatened with job loss, humiliation, and for too many, detention and deportation, is scary. My sense among this community is of activists who know who they are and are willing to do more.
*The Pentagon hired a J6 terrorist to work in anti-terrorism. It’s not irony; it’s insanity.
If this was from ‘25 it would be my fault and I would apologize and stand corrected. However, it is a call to arms as we have not heard. It needed to be on CBS, the network of Murrow and Friendly.
I tried both of your suggestions to contact CBS. The first one allowed me to write a comment but wouldn't let me send. The second one had no place to comment. I have been trying to figure this out since yesterday.🤷♀️ I'm glad you published Pelley's speech. Excellent!
Deeply frustrating, all of this. Our options are here. We have a midterms to win. And to stay loud in the meantime. Trump is actually falling apart. As is his coalition. Gradually and then all at once. This must be remembered.
Great speech, but why the class of 2025 and not 2026?
Good question
This is a fantastic speech that should be read by every American. Really, it should be read by everyone, period.

Steve - yes which is what I thought I conveyed. That he spoke out. The year threw a few of us.

Funny how Trump refers to the J6ers as "patriots."
He hasn't a clue what it actually means to be a true patriot.
Scott Pelley does and embodies that spirit.
The speech was utterly amazing, moving, and thought provoking. (Thanks for sharing.)
He's my current hero!
I think he is an American hero and is well positioned to lead a new media enterprise devoted to high-quality journalism. I hope it happens.
