Stephen Feinberg wound up in the crosshairs of my research on several occasions. I always knew he wanted to emulate Erik Prince but reading @MarkMazzettiNYT's piece on his possible role in training those who killed Jamal Khashoggi has shook me to my core. nytimes.com/2021/06/22/us/…
@MarkMazzettiNYT In February 2017 Donald Trump tapped Stephen Feinberg for a special task to "audit our intelligence agencies."
However the first time I dug into Stephen Feinberg was actually in December 2012 when his company Cerberus Capital Management decided to turn a profit off of the horrific massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Feinberg saw an opportunity to leverage Cerberus Capital Management's "Freedom Group" fund, to purchase large positions of stock in the the company that manufactured the gun Adam Lanza used to slay 20 first-graders and 6 adults. sparrowmedia.net/2013/12/cerber…
I began to interact with other members of his family, several of whom communicated fear that Stephen saw himself as some sort of "crusader."
His own father (who lived near Sandy Hook) pled with him to sell his position in the weapons manufacturers.
Stephen owned 94% of the stake in the company that manufactured the Bushmaster XM-15 used by Lanza —he dragged his feet and galvanized his position deeper into a world of weapons, logistics, mercenaries, and Islamophobia.
That was 2014...
In addition to owning the primary positions in Remington Arms, Bushmaster Firearms, and DPMS Panther Arms, Feinberg's Cerberus Capital Management also purchased JSOC's training partners Tier 1 Group. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
During this period he also became friends with Donald Trump, had his ear during the 2016 Presidential campaign, and eventually in 2017 was appointed to oversee and audit our intelligence services (while still remaining a private contractor.) newyorker.com/business/curre…
While more reporting is needed before we can know whether or not Tier 1, Stephen Feinberg, or Cerberus understood that the men they were training were engaged in Saudi regime ordered campaigns of kidnapping and murder.
What we can say is; Stephen invests in monstrous things.
It's only fitting that a monster like Stephen Feinberg named his company, Cerberus Capital Management, after a mythical three-headed dog monster that guards the gates of hell.
But most importantly, Jamal Khashoggi should be alive today.
Jamal and his family deserve justice, and if Stephen Feinberg, Cerberus, Tier 1, or any other US contractors materially supported his murder they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent under law.

...and like the opportunistic vampires he is here comes Rudy Giuliani texting with Proudboy James Sullivan, (the brother of John Sullivan) in an effort to reframe Trump's "trial by combat" at the Capitol as the actions of 266 "Antifa."
I'm disturbed by the amount of people who are calling this thread misinformation.
I'm not alleging John Sullivan is a Trump supporter in some sort of grandiose conspiracy.
I am plainly stating he is an apolitical opportunist and violent accelerationist.
Thanks to a follower's keen eye we now know that zip tie guy and the woman accompanying him stayed at the @GrandHyattDC the night of January 6.
In order to protect contributor's identities I am making a few edits to the thread above. If you RT'd something above and see it has been deleted please check back in a second and you will see an adjusted tweet.
After many contributions from people following this thread we now have confirmation that zip-tie guy is Eric Munchel, of Nashville, TN.
Eric is currently a bartender at Bartender at Doc Ford's Rum Bar & Grille.
As I look at photos of the "zip tie guy" I noticed a few details that may be easy to overlook when your eye is clearly drawn towards the zip ties.
Some of these details may be indicators of where he is from and possible group affiliation.
The shirt and pants are notably expensive, and uniquely identifiable. Specifically they are the "combat field shirt" and "stalker pant" made by Kryptek. Both are in the "Typhon" urban camouflage color way.
Lightweight combat tops are popular among militia groups because of the velcro adornments on the shoulders, elbows, and chest, that allow them to affix their groups' identifying patches and similar flare.
Is it significant that this individual is not wearing his group's patches?
