Dance Club...
Maj. Gen. Ronald Lewis, a former senior military aide to Defense Secretary Ash Carter, used his government credit card at strip clubs or gentlemen's clubs in Rome and Seoul, drank in excess and had "improper interactions" with women during business travel with Carter, according to a report released by the Defense Department inspector general.
Lewis took responsibility for several inappropriate actions, including charging nearly $1,800 on his government credit card at what he called a "dance club" in Rome. In an embarrassing set of circumstances, Lewis said, he tried to use his personal debit card at the club, but it didn't work, so he had to walk back to his hotel with a female employee of the club, and wake up a Defense Department staff member to get his government card to pay the bill. He said he paid back the charges when he returned to the U.S.
Ultimately the investigation only substantiated the allegations of credit card misuse, including lying to a credit card company and bank and falsifying information, according to several defense officials. Lewis faces reduction in rank and a hefty fine.
Just a thought.
Lesson...?
Officers were called around 2 p.m. PT Tuesday to the Broadway Village Shopping Center in El Cajon , Calif., about 15 miles northeast of San Diego, after hearing reports of an uncooperative person walking into traffic, El Cajon police said in a statement. They said the man did not have a weapon.
El Cajon Police Chief Jeff Davis said at a news conference: "At one point the male rapidly drew an object from his front pants pocket, placed both hands together on it and extended it rapidly towards the officer taking what appeared to be a shooting stance, putting the object in the officer's face.
"At this time one of the officers discharged his Taser in an effort to subdue the subject. Simultaneously the officer who had the object pointed at him discharged his firearm, striking the male."
He did not say what the object was but acknowledged it was not a weapon. Davis said investigators were reviewing the video and other video recovered from the scene, which so far coincided with the officers' statements.
A lesson.... Just a thought.

Bernie Sanders has railed against the alleged sins of the “corporate media” during this year’s campaign. Sanders’s main opponent, Hillary Clinton, has conveyed suspicion, if not outright hostility, of the news media since her days as first lady.
Everyone sees [the media] as too arrogant,” said Tim Graham of the Media Research Center. “Everyone sees them as bad listeners, as dumbing down the news for consultants teaching them to goose ratings and page clicks.”
The Media is running with whoever said "this is fat or she is flat chested." Who mishandled the emails or Benghazi's fiasco. Who touched it and when. How many women with accusation [Ave Maria's last resort in any election.] But absolutely nothing about the future of the country and its citizens.
Healthcare, Taxes, Criminal Justice reforms, Illegal Immigration, Safety of the people, Wars we support in Syria and Libya, Reduce regulations, issues for the seniors who can't afford their medication, and poverty that impacting millions of Americans mostly for no fault of their own..
Focus, focus.... Just a thought.
