Colin Powell 17 Years After Lying Us Into War: ‘Boo Hoo. It’s Someone Else’s Fault’

Will this most political general’s self-promotional PR tour ever end?

You are a guilty war criminal, Colin. It’s not just your obituary. Your gravestone will say so too. And for all of the rest of human history you will be known as the useful tool who knew he was lying but went ahead anyway, killed one million people, turned the entire Middle East upside down and got the entire-damn 21st Century off to a bad start. Forever. Always. Guilty.

So go ahead and shut the hell up right now and just be thankful that the “law” in this country doesn’t apply to you and you get to die near family in your giant mansion instead of in a Supermax cell where you belong.

Now, go back to ignoring all these veteran suicides you caused and pretending they are someone else’s fault too.

CATO 2020 National Survey Results: 63% Of Americans In Favor Of Ending Qualified Immunity For Police

From Emily Ekins at CATO

Survey results show good news for police reform. 63% of Americans support ending qualified immunity for police. The problem is those in power don’t – a majority of Republicans, police (as represented by the unions) and the judicial system.

Other good news from the survey:

  • 84% of people oppose erasing records of police misconduct every few years.
  • 62% of people say police unions should not be allowed to collectively bargain over methods used to hold police officers accountable for misconduct.

Rep Thomas Massie On GOP Amendment To End War In Afghanistan

“A defense bill amendment to repeal authority for military force that has been in place since right after 9-11, effectively expediting plans for a full withdrawal and ending America’s longest war.”

Massie states the biggest obstacle may be that Democrat House Leader Nancy Pelosi will not allow it to come up for a vote.
