Donald Trump raged against the media and accused Democrats of 'paying off' stores for more flattering coverage.
The President demanded that long-term CBS program 60 minutes was 'terminated' after the network has favorably edited his interview with the then vice-president Kamala Harris only one month before the 2024 elections.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released the full, unprocessed version of the interview on Wednesday.
It immediately sent the Republicans in a Tizzy and led Trump to resume his calls for the network to completely lose his license.
“CBS and 60 minutes have cheated on the audience by doing something that has never been seen before,” Trump claimed on Thursday morning in a position to Truth Social.
“They removed 100% the terrible elections from Kamala and changed answers to questions and replaced them through completely different and much better answers, taken from another part of the interview,” he continued. “This was election change” things, “election interference and, simply, election fraud at a level that has never been seen before.”
Also on Wednesday, reports emerged that revealed that USAID, which was closed this week by Trump on the advice of Elon Musk, paid $ 8 million to polico for the subscriptions of employees.
Trump says that this is further evidence of the 'greatest scandal of all' between Democrats, government bureaucracy and the media.
He wondered if these entities pay other media, in particular the New York Times, to carry out activities that he claims to come down to 'election interference' and 'fraud'.

Trump sued CBS News in a federal court in Texas in October and claimed that the network deliberately edited the interview to put him to the disadvantage of 6 November 2024.
The complaint filed by the Center for American Rights, which accused 60 minutes of selective editing of the interview, was initially rejected on January 16, four days before Trump's second inauguration.
But the newly appointed FCC chairman of Trump, Brendan Carr, reopened the case immediately after taking the position.

The full version shows that although Harris gave a long answer when he was asked about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, CBS only about seven seconds broadcast during the 60 -minute episode with the presidential candidate.
He also hit the now -defined government agency USAID for paying $ 8 million in polico for subscriptions, and claimed that it is part of the 'biggest scandal of all' between Democrats and the 'fake news' media
