St. Paul, MN — When 24-year-old Terrell Wilson was arrested on April 13, 2016, he never thought an accusation of swiping someone’s cellphone at a night club would end up with him being held down by a half dozen officers—and savagely tortured—while in handcuffs. But that is exactly what happened. Now, after three years, the disturbing video has been released and the taxpayers, not the cop who did most of the torturing, are being held liable.
On Thursday, Wilson received more than $500,000 as part of a settlement reached with the county.
Travis Vandewiele—the cop who doled out multiple knee strikes, punches and torture techniques on the restrained and nonviolent Wilson—has been on paid administrative leave, otherwise known as paid vacation, from the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office for the last two years. During this time he’s been collecting $121,555 in salary. As part of a recent settlement against the office, Vandewiele will also receive all the back pay for his vacation and sick pay—despite being on vacation and never having to take a sick day. He was allowed to resign and keep his pension in February, despite pleading guilty to a misdeamor in connection with the horrific attack seen on video.
According to police, Wilson was arrested for allegedly taking two cellphones from patrons at a night club. Once he got to jail, all hell broke loose.
The video starts with Wilson in the back of the squad car. He was pepper sprayed during the arrest which is causing him severe discomfort and making it hard to breathe. When police attempted to remove him from the squad car, they put a spit mask over him, in spite of the fact that he was not spitting at them.
Wilson appears to be in distress and is “limp” as the deputies try to get him out of the car. This is when the arrest took a sadistic turn for the worse...........https://thefreethoughtproject.com/cops-torture-restrained-man-taxpayers/

you might be aware of the empire's actions to some degree surrounding their spying on you but did you know that they've given all of that information to israel, and of course since they're the 'most moral democracy' in the world after the empire there's no way they will be irresponsible with that information;
Using the familiar rationale of “terrorism” to excuse cooperation they knew was illegal, the NSA and ISNU found a workaround using the Office of the Director of National Intelligence that provided the Israelis with all the intel they needed, according to an October 2006 article in the NSA’s internal publication. “To ISNU, this prohibition [on sharing data for targeted killings] was contrary not only to supporting Israel in its fight against Hizballah but overall, to support the US Global War on Terrorism,” said an article in SIDToday..............https://www.theburningplatform.com/2019/06/02/what-nsa-gives-israel-all-data/
The NSA gave Israel FULL ACCESS to ALL its data on American
citizens – even American government officials (on an “honor basis”). No
wonder Israel has full control of the Congress – they have blackmail
information on all of them. They have information on all of us!
Tell me again how the US is not an occupied country. What kind of
relationship is this? The NSA handed over ALL PRIVATE DATA on citizens
to a foreign country??

Frustrated by a legal ban on sharing intelligence with Israeli operatives conducting targeted assassinations against Hezbollah, the NSA crafted a loophole giving them total access even to US citizens’ data, leaked documents show.
The Israeli SIGINT National Unit (ISNU), the NSA’s counterpart in Tel
Aviv, convinced the Americans to circumvent the legal prohibition on
providing surveillance data for targeted assassinations during Israel’s
2006 war with Lebanon, according to the newest revelation from the
archives obtained by whistleblower Edward Snowden.

Two Contrasting Commencement Addresses a Half Century Apart
Paul Craig Roberts
On June 1, 2019, American vice president Mike Pence gave the commencement address at West Point. He told the graduates that it was a certainty that they will “be on a battlefield for America” and “will move to the sound of guns.” https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-vice-president-pence-west-point-graduation-ceremony/
Pence did not say for whose agenda they would be fighting, whether it would be the oil companies’ agenda, or Israel’s, or the New York Banks’, or for the neoconservative ideology of US world hegemony, or for the CIA’s drug business. Indeed, the West Point graduates will die without ever knowing for whose interest they are fighting.
Pence’s address is a perfect illustration of The Matrix at work. The innocent and ignorant graduates are sitting ducks for recrutiment into what US Marine General Smedley Buttler described as the hit men for American corporate interests. https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/05/27/something-to-think-about-on-memorial-day/
War and the preparation for war has been the hallmark of America since the Clinton regime. In American history, the wars have always been for empire and the economic and financial interests that benefit from empire. There are very few years in American history when the government has not been at war with someone. ...........https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/06/02/two-contrasting-commencement-addresses-a-half-century-apart/
