Key Facts
Trump complained on Truth Social about Greene’s “60 Minutes” interview, in which the Republican congresswoman repeatedly lashed out against Trump when discussing her decision to resign in January.

Trump has been a longtime critic of “60 Minutes,” and previously received a settlement of $16 million from CBS owner Paramount over his criticisms of the program’s interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris.

The president likened Greene to a “rotten apple” on Truth Social and said she “went BAD” because “she was JILTED by the President of the United States,” but went on to say his “real problem” with the “60 Minutes” interview was “that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air.”


snip*The president changed his tune on the deal on Monday, however, writing the company’s new parent company is “NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP.”
