I am a federally cleared programmer, turned #whistleblower

I spoke against the #VA and #AccentureFederalServices and pointed out corruption and mismanagement of funds. I fight for the rights of #veterans

I have been persecuted, and homeless since 2023.

I am presently in #Japan , seeking political asylum.

My whistleblower story is here:

https://whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/

I thought that I would be safe from persecution, once I got to Japan. This turned out to be wrong.

I ran out of the funds I came here with, in February 2026, and have been #homeless here since.

I turned to every refugee assistance I could find: #JAR, #AAR, #RHQ, #FRESC, #UNHCR , the #Shinagawa City Ward Office. They all denied me assistance.

Second Harvest gave me 5 food packages, over two months, each of which lasts 2-3 days.

The #Takanawa #Catholic #Church was feeding me 1 meal a day, though now they have stopped even that.

When I reported to Mr. Takaii, a priest at #Meguro Catholic Church, that I had been abused by a Catholic Charity in #Kona , #Hawaii ( documented in the link above ), he suddenly told me he did not speak any English, though we had met a few times, and had several conversations, and he speaks English fluently.

This is probably because I asked him to respond to my critique of #Christianity in general:

The #corruption at the heart of the Catholic church and Christianity could not be more profound.

The #Pope has condemned #war and called for #peace , and scored cheap #poltical points against #Trump , though he has not called on all #Catholics to resign from the military, and stop participating in war. His apologia are crocodile tears.

I am presently hungry, homeless, and need of medical care.

The Japanese #Immigration Bureau keep asking me why I have "overstayed my visa". I keep responding that while my asylum application is pending, I am not overstaying in Japan. Japan is in violation of #International #Law ( 1951 & 1967 convention on the treatment of #refugees ). They can easily extend my visa, so I can get medical care and food. I have reported to them several times that I am in pain, and need food. They keep on harassing me.

It seems to me that the #JapanPM has decided to make same mistake that Japan made in #WW2 - siding with #corruption

Please boost this message.

Also please advise where I may turn for immediate help.

MoN may still be searching for its identity, but Tokyo's newest landmark already knows how to do one thing well: make people stay awhile. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2026/06/02/art/takanawa-shinagawa-museum-narratives/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #culture #art #gsa #tokyo #shinagawa #takanawa #museumofnarratives #museums

Takanawa Gateway’s latest landmark is still working on its own story

The museum's programming may lack focus, but its open spaces already offer Tokyoites a reason to stop in.

Takanawa Gateway City may look like the future, but the land beneath it has thousands of years of history. From ancient settlements and seaside post towns to rail yards and bullet trains, we trace the many lives of Shinagawa along Tokyo's ever-changing southern coast. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/05/30/japan/history/shinagawa-takanawa-history-tokyo/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #history #gsa #tokyo #shinagawa #takanawa
