Hats off to the @60Minutes team that pulled off this story. Outstanding.
Don't miss the sweat on the brow of the pardon broker.
In an undercover operation, pardon brokers assert, “The Department of Justice is irrelevant. It’s an afterthought.”
One of the brokers, Jacob Wohl, defends the statement: “The president doesn't make decisions based on the judgment of nameless, faceless bureaucrats. He never has.” cbsn.ws/3VtGelO

A scoopy piece on Steve Feinberg, the Pentagon's second-in-command thrust into the spotlight thanks to the case of a former CIA officer arrested with $40M in gold bars in his home.
In the article: The FBI has questioned Feinberg in the probe into the officer, David Rush; the FBI says Feinberg is not under investigation. Feinberg’s work with Rush was part of a briefing to Trump. And U.S. officials relayed details about video Rush and Feinberg each appear in to members of Congress in a briefing about the case.

JUST IN: President Trump agrees with VP JD Vance in refusing to call the months-long U.S. military action in Iran a war, instead calling it a "military conflict" and describing the whole thing as "small potatoes" to the United States.
"Well, I'll tell you what. A lot of people don't call it a war. I call it a military conflict because it's small potatoes for us. It's not a big thing."
