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, Sexual Assaults: Why Does President Obama Protect Pentagon Corruption, Nominating Same Wrong Leadership?

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak, Sexual Assaults: Why Does President Obama Protect Pentagon Corruption, Nominating Same Wrong Leadership?: From Denny:  President Obama nominated Gen. Dempsey for a second term as Joint Chiefs Chairman at the Pentagon.  This coming week the Senate will decide whether to confirm him again - which they probably will do.  It's called rubber-stamping the same tired wrong doing.

This JC Chairman is the guy that knows more of what is really going on than the President does.  The President just lives under the illusion that he knows.

This JC Chairman is the guy who chooses what not to tell the President and Congress about where the money is really going.  This is the guy who sets up and approves of the private contractor deals, especially the secret ones that are no bid contracts which the public and watchdog groups are not allowed to oppose or offer opinion...

A Truth Journal: Childish White House Press Secretary Pouts When Challenged By Kid Reporter

A Truth Journal: Childish White House Press Secretary Pouts When Challenged By Kid Reporter: From Denny:  If there ever was a sign that Team Obama is unraveling and spinning out of control in their second term then the Press Secretary's childish response to a 16-year-old's poignant question in a recent news briefing is reflecting it.

Press Secretary Jay Carney behaves like a man who hates his job.  He looks like he is always sucking lemons and developing ulcers for some time now.  Clearly, this guy is not a good fit for Press Secretary because he sure does not know how to relate positively to the press, especially an ardent high school student.

Just what did this teenager, Gabe Finger, an intern at the snarky conservative The Daily Caller, ask that Carney found so odious?

FILE – In this May 17, 2013 file photo Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey, speaks during a Pentagon news conference about sexual assaults in the military, among other topics. Dempsey and the four-star chiefs of the services are scheduled to testify Tuesday, June 4, 2013, at a high-stakes Senate hearing on congressional proposals to modify the military justice system to stem the flow of the escalating number of sexual assaults that have outraged Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill.

A Truth Journal: Military Sexual Assaults: Finally Time For Entire Pentagon Chiefs to Resign?: From Denny:  After a damning report that revealed 26,000 sexual assaults just in 2012 alone, you would think someone over at the Pentagon would resign in shame.

After 3400 plus officially reported cases that actually went up the chain of command from a few brave commanders not willing to cover it up, there were only 190 of those 3400 plus sexual assaults and rapes that went to court.  No one resigned in shame for this pathetic record...
