I am extremely proud of the work the LEWIS registry is doing to stop this. So what is it and what does it have to do with this video?
The Law Enforcement Work Inquiry System (LEWIS) Registry is a db of officers fired or resigned bc misconduct, incl excessive force, corruption, viol extremism, domestic viol, sexual aslt, physical aslt & harassment, perjury, falsifying a report, & planting or destroying evidence.
Officers facing charges simply resigned, kept their credentials, and took a job somewhere else - only to repeat the patterns of abuse. Often HR records are sealed requiring them to be reviewed IN PERSON by a hiring agency. LEWIS seeks to end that by tracking these officers.
This sailor was wearing his UNIFORM when this woman accused him of “faking” being in the military and SLAPPED him. She is reportedly “cooperating” with authorities, bc why arrest her for assault?
Also you can hear the sailor in a calm voice calling and asking for his Chief. It shouldn’t be this way, this sailor was wearing an authorized US Navy uniform.
Oh as if this wasn’t bad enough, this happened on 9/11!
“The sailor, whose identity was confirmed by the U.S. Navy and a family relative as Sean Nolte Jr., of PA, is stationed in Groton and is attending the Naval Submarine School.”
#BREAKING can confirm that 11 flights, 8 chartered by Glen Beck, are being held by the Taliban and include over 100 Americans. No pax on planes. No hostages. All pax are safe away from airport. newsweek.com/taliban-holds-…
Also @RepMcCaul was absolutely incorrect as characterizing any of these people as hostages. There is nobody being denied exit of the country, or being detained on a plane. Instead the Taliban has not granted clearance for the planes to leave. Spoke to two sources who confirmed.
Beck’s Nazerene Fund and Mercury 1 group paid $750K for each flight and is set to carry over 1k passengers - of which 123 are reportedly American (a second group reportedly had 19 Americans).
So the threat to escaping Afghans isn’t just coming from the Taliban, it’s also coming from Karen’s who want to grab the limelight. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/medi…
Ooh snap she just got called the f out.
She fucking lied y’all and she doesn’t feel a bit of remorse. Because why shouldn’t a nice white woman make a buck off the desperation of brown girls?
Icymi - there is still one American being held hostage by the Taliban. As the evacuation winds down, the window to secure his release is fast closing. newsweek.com/exclusive-bide…
Years ago at ONI we would do an annual order of battle assessment for a certain country’s Navy. On books they had an impressive force, constantly training. Truth was, senior officers just submitted pay chits and collected salaries for non-existent sailors. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
Their hulls were rusting and in disrepair. But on paper, they looked capable. It was that paper that mattered, not just to us, but to a very close ally. It was disheartening to see commanders use the paper, when our intelligence suggested it was bullshit.
I never dealt with the Afghan Army directly, but I suspect that it wouldn’t have been hard for them to do the same.
As we approach the 20th anniv of #9/11, I’m struck how we worried Muslim suicide bombers would strike at schools, restaurants, malls, planes, and wherever we gather. Now we avoid those places bc ppl refuse to be vaccinated against a deadly virus. How isn’t that terrorism?
Terrorism seeks to coerce or intimidate people, beyond those it just targets w violence. I remember how after Sept 11th, every media organization deep-dived into Islam,
Muslim society, and, of course, creeping Sharia Law. Every brown person felt the sting of “is he good Arab?”
But we’re not allowed to look at WHY these people seek to terrorize us. Nor are we even allowed to say they are terrorists. So I guess the lesson of 9-11 was do as I say, not as I do.
