Bryan Tew finally left Ecuador a few weeks ago and arrived in Panama after failing to find any cheap air tickets to Nicaragua.
Some highlights of the adventure so far (in no particular order) –
Bryan was unhappy with the clinic who performed his PCR test and belligerently demanded his money back. Security was called which Bryan suddenly says there was “no reason” for:
With absolutely no evidence whatsoever, Bryan proclaims that he is “surrounded” by Panamanian “special operations soldiers”:
Bryan has more bizarre sexual nightmares. This time involving fucking a woman that was “possessed”. I guess this is an improvement over the time he had a nightmare about dropping the soap in the locker room for the Georgia Bulldogs:

Bryan can’t seem to figure out how to reach Nicaragua. In several posts and videos he’s said that Nicaragua is unfriendly to the US and he would be able to get help there. Oddly enough that’s the same thing he said about Ecuador several years ago but we saw how far he got with his asylum claim.
Anyway, depending on which posts and videos you watch, he either didn’t get the PCR test results on time, or he slept through the bus departure time and didn’t make it to Nicaragua. Now he wants to try the asylum gambit in Panama:
According to his Facebook, Bryan is now at a homeless shelter for veterans in New York City.

Is he even eligible to be there? It’s hard to find out legitimate information about Bryan’s life before he flipped out but I think he would have been 23 going on 24 during Operation Desert Storm in early 1991 plus Somalia and Bosnia later in the 1990s so it’s at least plausible that he served in the military in a combat theatre and so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt this isn’t just him taking a bed from a legitimate veteran.
I don’t know his military history but it’s not his first time using the services of veterans groups before. He stayed briefly in a veterans shelter in San Diego.
That’s where they found marijuana in proximity of his cot and was accused of possessing it by staff. Bryan decided to make a much bigger deal out of it by doing a video of himself with the staff of the shelter (the man in the video didn’t appreciate being made famous on YouTube and got YT to take it down). He also called police and in his video stated “marijuana is an ILLEGAL DRUG!!!!”, even though it was legal where he was at in California.
He could have just said “No sir, it’s not mine and here you can look through my belongings, I don’t have any narcotics and I voluntarily submit to a drug test at any time” without all the drama queen nonsense.
No idea if it was Tew’s weed but I found that entire exchange to be funny and over the top, in typical Tew fashion. In light of other things about him, I do have to wonder.
It reminds me of that other video Tew likes to re-post of him finding those large purple panties (that happens to look like his size) in his luggage where he claims “they” are discrediting him. If he didn’t make the video, nobody else would know about the panties but him. Now everyone wonders if Tew is a crossdresser. He’s probably posted the purple panties video a hundred times now. So fucking weird.
Okay, Bryan says he served with the National Guard in Kosovo around 13 minutes in during this mostly audio-only video at the Veteran’s Hospital and, considering he’s somewhere where they would presumably confirm his military record, I see no reason to doubt him on that particular matter.

Not that I’m not going to criticize him for prominently displaying a can of Red Bull while showing us how poorly he’s sleeping at the beginning of the video, as if there’s no connection between guzzling energy drinks and not sleeping well.
Predictably, Bryan is siding with Russia in its invasion of Ukraine. He thinks American special forces are on the front lines fighting against Russia and bizarrely calls them “government contractors” (our special forces are part of our military, they are not some contracted out mercenaries).
He says that Russians are being “cautious”, presumably that’s his way of describing Russia’s incompetent invasion that has left roads littered with Russian tanks looking for fuel. Russia has already lost (according to numbers published by Ukrainian sources) four thousand troops in just a few days of fighting. Compare to America, which lost about four thousand in a multi-year invasion and occupation of Iraq.
I wouldn’t call that “cautious” or careful or anything like that, I’d call that outright incompetent and weak.

From Bryan’s latest video, I can confirm that he has passed through immigration / customs and is officially back in the USA. Hopefully this is a new chapter in his adventure. But he may just end up taking another flight out in a few days, so I’ll hold back the celebrations until then.
Will we see more anonymous homosexual encounters in “Old Town” (Presidio Park) San Diego? Sleeping in front of “Old Town Church” again? I’m hoping for a new city this time. Would be funny if he ends up in New York. Judging by how those cops didn’t take any bullshit from him, I don’t think NYC would be great for him.
Bryan says he lost another credit card and has no credit cards in his possession. Continues to whine about the mean ol’ cops who told him he wasn’t allowed to sleep.
He claims other people were sleeping and his proof is a few people he shows on camera laying down (well, only one was just partially laying) or sitting inside of the airport right by the front doors (in what appears to be either the ticketing area or similar – not familiar with JFK). None of them were sleeping. Tew is “lying” in more than one way here.

Security at the Mexico City airport aren’t letting Bryan sleep on the floor. With the shit that’s going on in Ukraine right now everyone is probably a little on edge about weirdos acting weird in the airport.
Bryan has a ticket onward from Mexico City to New York. Remains to be seen if he actually takes this flight.
Bryan is currently at the JFK Airport (NYC) posting doom porn. It’s not clear what his next stop is.
Still at JFK. Apparently the cops there don’t like seeing him sleep on the floor either. He claims others are sleeping there (maybe, but probably not on the floor) and that they’re targeting him only.

Bryan is tucking tail and leaving Panama after his asylum interview. Next destination is supposedly Mexico City – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9fgN04gNyc
I forgot to mention that he was seeking out local immigration attorneys to try to help him presumably sue the government of Panama – he complained that the translator didn’t properly translate his story. I don’t get that since Bryan doesn’t understand Spanish, how can he possibly know if the translator was competent and/or accurate?
Apparently he slept through his appointment (or didn’t have enough energy or whatever) /w his attorney and has given up altogether.
Apparently guzzling however many cans of Red Bull he purchased wasn’t the solution for his sleeplessness problem.
