Mistakes aren’t something you do on purpose.

They know exactly what they were doing. I don’t believe a word from these people.

[charlessmith]

These were not mistakes on their part! They’re very skillful at lying!

Why does it seem like all “mistakes” always help one party?

[willyjilly]

Surprised CBS morning is covering this

[heavyd]

They need to be charged under the Hatch Act.

[rumblethis]

It's called treason NOT mistakes, they knew exactly what they were doing and now they have been caught.

[willyjilly]

No mistake. Jen Psaki said the government has every right to decide what is misinformation and censored multiple media platforms to keep this story quiet 🤫🤐

[Theredman]

Mistake? Those mistakes must have been ordered by those FBI agents that were working there at the time.

[azymight]

They should be sued and jailed. Especially the lady - gayday or something.

[ColoradoCarter]

When is CBS and other media outlets going to admit their deliberate role?

[justfloat]

A mistake is forgetting to stop by the store on your way home. The timing of all they banding points to something much less innocent, go woke, go broke!

[conrmckocoa]

It's not a 'mistake' when you blatantly lie and know what you are doing. Censorship is wrong and illegal

[mopthermopther]

Thank you, CBS for a good report. The American people have a right to know what is going on. 🚩

[yanggongzi]

They done it purposely, these people are purely evil!

[drakulie]

They weren’t mistakes, , , , it was done on purpose.

[heavyd]

"–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information.

[nebulajumper]

Ok, but should a private companie have this kind of power?

And a mistake done on purpose is not a mistake, but a calculate action.

[willyjilly]

If you read this I hope you have a wonderful day today ❤️

& behind that there should be consequences, not just talk
