If one had any doubts about the mainstream media's collusion with the Biden administration to run block-and-tackle to cover their mistakes, doubt no longer. 

According to the Daily Mail, it was revealed this week that Vice President Kamala Harris' "word salad" during her interview on CBS "60 Minutes" was conveniently edited out by the network.

It's almost as if they know airing such an embarrassing moment could affect Harris in the polls, given that the election is is less than two months out.

The unedited version of her bizarre and humiliating interview circulated across social media this week.

What happened?

The first version of her "60 Minutes" interview aired as it usually would. A particular question about the Israeli-Hamas war sent Harris into a brain meltdown, and to say it was unflattering would be kind.

When CBS uploaded the same interview to the outlet's official YouTube channel, where it would undoubtedly get more views, the network chose to edit it in a way to make Harris look more competent than she is.

The network completely erased her bumbling response to the Israeli-Hamas war question, which quickly caught the attention of many on social media.

Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, was asked by host Bill Whitaker about the conflict and whether or not the United States has any sway over Israel's decision-making process. Her answer was a non-answer, and it was also filled with awkward pauses.

"Well Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region," Harris replied.

Social media reacts

Many social media users were furious about the edits, and some even called for FCC intervention to begin with.

"The @FCC must investigate and challenge the licenses of CBS' Owned & Operated TV Stations (they own 28) for intentional fraud upon the public. This is a cardinal FCC rule and a cardinal sin by corrupt @CBS @CBSNews," one X user wrote.

Another X user wrote, "Absolute fraud, which vindicated Trump's decision to pass on the interview with them."

Sadly, it probably won't be the last time she gets an assist from the media in the final weeks until the election.
