David Flippo’s 2008 Relieving from Duty

According to multiple reports, David Flippo was removed from his role as an aircraft maintenance squadron commander at Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska in 2008.

Retired U.S. Air Force Colonel Steven Lawlor, who was the maintenance group commander at the time, told the Reno Gazette Journal that he had been brought in to replace the previous group commander and that Flippo was a squadron commander under him. Lawlor said he “relieved him shortly thereafter for loss of confidence in his ability to command” 

The Reno Gazette Journal confirmed Lawlor’s account with the major who was hired to fill Flippo’s position. Lawlor did not provide further details on the specific incidents that led to the decision, but the statement was made in the context of Flippo’s ongoing political and military record scrutiny 

This removal is separate from other controversies involving Flippo, including recent allegations that he falsely claimed to have earned a Bronze Star “for valor” in multiple campaign materials, and that he was also fired from a financial institution job for violating company policies 

In summary, Flippo’s 2008 relieving from duty was officially attributed by his superior to a loss of confidence in his command ability, as confirmed by the senior officer who reported to him at the time

And now we’ve got Thom Tillis all over the media pretending to be an intrepid crusader speaking truth to power only after becoming a lame duck. 🦆 He voted for everyone of Trump’s nominees and opposed his impeachment. Thom Tillis is everything but a hero.

No change can be enacted WHATSOEVER until the whole damn GOP is voted out! Why doesn’t the Left EVER understand that obvious fact? Stop the ridiculous “both sides” bullshit and constant whining and try to help accomplish ridding this country of the fascists first and foremost!

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

Where there is consent, government has no business in our bedrooms. Government should be worrying about those too young to give consent. Let's start at church. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Evangelicals need to focus on church's sexual abuse epidemic, not just Trump or drag queens
There is a clear pattern of abusive and at times criminal behavior among pastors and other leaders in a growing list of evangelical congregations.

The 19th century gave us Social Darwinism, eugenics, Biblical Literalism & Fundamentalist Christianity, racism coupled with imperialism, ecological devastation from unchecked rapid industrialization... and the 21st century looks to dive right back into that as though it were a lost golden age.

Nobody becomes a billionaire from labor wages. Even if you were paid $1,000 an hour you can't become a billionaire in a lifetime. They become billionaires by exploiting their workers and consumers.

#Blamedumping is a social disease. It's become accepted to turn every systemic problem on individuals. We're "too sensitive", "too lazy", "too stupid" etc. etc. Turns out being mad is the correct response to opportunists looting, raping, and murdering without consequence.

For months Gabriela Soto has relentlessly advocated for her husband Martin, unlawfully detained by ICE while buying diapers for their baby. Martin played a key role in the Delaney Hall hunger strike this summer. Last night we was RELEASED from ICE custody. ALWAYS FIGHT BACK.
Beautiful young family outside a detention center.

The last states to use the electric chair abandoned it in the late 1990s because it was becoming increasingly likely after a gruesome execution in Florida that the courts would declare the method unconstitutional.
