A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More




A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More: 4 videos.  From Denny:  Did you know that the Daily Show's comic, John Oliver, is an American citizen?  Did you know his wife is career military?

You can easily guess who it was who suggested he interview Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand in her efforts to curb the Pentagon's so-called leadership values, refusing to give up even an ounce of command authority no matter how wide-sweeping and perverted is their corruption.  But then, that's the point, isn't it, to be able to have the authority necessary to cover-up that corruption and law-breaking.

In short, the Pentagon wants to do what they want, when they want and how they want without any real oversight or any consequences.  It's obvious those in Congress who should be exercising oversight are too busy with their fund-raising and insider trading to take the time to hold the Pentagon's feet to the fire and get those sexual assault and rape cases properly prosecuted.

That attitude has resulted in a rape culture that is at epidemic proportions in the U.S. military.  While it's clear it's acceptable to the highest levels of the military command, like Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dempsey, it isn't acceptable or palatable to the rest of the country or women in general.

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak, Comic John Oliver Tells Us Sad Truth: Goldman Sachs Aluminum Pricing Scandal

English: John Oliver in 2007
Comic John Oliver of The Daily Show

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak, Comic John Oliver Tells Us Sad Truth: Goldman Sachs Aluminum Pricing Scandal: From Denny:  Yet another example of President Obama protecting Wall Street corruption.  If ever you doubted just how corrupt our government and financial systems truly are, then take a look at these funny video clips.

The Daily Show's temporary host, comic John Oliver, lays it all out in plain language that even an eight-year-old can understand it.  Oliver brings a precocious eight-year-old little girl on to the show to prove his point. But, apparently, the financial sector reporters are unable to see the obvious corruption and insider trading issues - or are too cowardly to admit their knowledge.

And President Obama and Congress are equally clueless, enabling daily the financial sector's glaring corruption.  Oh, yeah, President Obama's legacy will be just as glaring for all the corruption he did nothing to stop...
