Colin Powell, the American war hero, the former head of the Join Chiefs of staff, and former Secretary of State under President George W. Bush has died at the age of 84.
His cause of death is reportedly due to complications from a Covid-19 infection.
As Fox News reports:
Gen. Colin Powell, the influential former secretary of state and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who played a pivotal policy role during the administration of then-President George W. Bush, died Monday at 84 from complications related to COVID-19, his family announced.
“We have lost a remarkable and loving husband, father, grandfather and a great American,” his family said in a statement, adding that he was fully vaccinated.
The statement continued, “We want to thank the medical staff at Walter Reed National Medical Center for their caring treatment.”
Powell was the first African American to ever serve as Secretary of State.
Too bad it wasn’t Hillary
A big shame. Horrible person.
I agree with Andy. But Powell was a rino. He jumped on the Obama band wagon just to support a “brother “. Sounds racist to me Good riddance
HEY, let’s not get fresh!! The man just died, hold off for at least a few days out of respect to his family.
Ok I’ll wait until he’s buried
If you paid attention he was CRYING when he made that “endorsement”, it was clear that he was threatened to make it!!! I’m sure they didn’t threaten HIS life, probably threatened his grandchildren’s lives; what would YOU do???
Hillary is an elite democrat, she won’t be catching Covid nor having complications from the vaccine she won’t be getting.
Or Obama.
he is running the show behind the joe curtain.
The Wrong One Died!
With everything they have out there now, it is a shame they could not save him.
You are assuming it was COVID but the sad truth is news has turned into nothing more than a weapon to tell us what they want us to hear and believe. I doubt anything the news media has to say about ANYTHING!
He should have gotten the vaccine! He would have lived through the infection if he did!
If this wasn’t meant to be sarcastic, did you miss the part where he was fully vaccinated. He most likely got COVID as a breakthrough infection as so many have. Believe me it’s not the unvaccinated that are causing the problem in 2021. Most of us have had the virus and don’t need it.
I understand that he had Multiple Myeloma, a rare and invariably fatal cancer with a 5-7 year life expectancy from date of diagnosis. More likely that he died with Covid, not from Covid.
Reply to Lou: I read in another article that he DID get the vaccine. There are vaccinated people who are dying and/or experiencing adverse reactions so I do not agree with you.
Indeed, Kevin! If the poor man died of a heart attack or was run over by a garbage truck YET the post-mortem revealed that he had COVID in his system, you better believe his death certificate cause of death was rubber-stamped as ‘COVID.’ Like you, I believe nothing our Government tells us anymore. We cannot lie to the Government, but the Government can lie to US anytime it bloody well pleases.
they did say he was fully vaccinated… THAT’S what he dies from!!!
From the VACCINE?!?
No great lose glad to hear it
Assho.
Yep ! The world is full of them .
Clueless moron!
James Hutchins, NO ONE was meant to stay here on Earth forever. Not even you.
I dont think he died in Hospital Gitmo more likely. More and more stories will emerge like Bill Clinton having Covid, a heart attack or whatever. BC was dealt with long ago
Bill Clinton probably has the clap or something similar . Or he dipped his wick in Hillary out of desperation . I guess you could say it’s Covid related .
Betcha that urinary infection he just had is really gonearia!
Another non-democrat succumbing to complications of the engineered Control Virus.
BECAUSE HE DIDN;T TAKE THE VACCINE!!
Why do you keep saying that? His family said he was fully vaccinated.
“….died Monday at 84 from complications related to COVID-19, his family announced.”
What a load of horse crap. He DIED of complications from the “vaccine”. Because “Covid” doesn’t exist. Never has, never will. Oh, wait, I’m sorry, yes, it exists in a COMPUTER simulated “model”. But not in the real world. nomorefakenews.com for the WHOLE story.
That is not an advertisement for getting vaccinated, although 84 years old isn’t a short life. Another casualty in the biological war that was unleashed on the world by China and anyone who funded the gain of function research (throat clearing sneeze that sounds a like like
achoo-Fauci). I wonder if China will ever be held accountable for this virus, the next one or the one after that???
Why are my comments awaiting approval? Cause I came out for the vax? Well, I do!! I want this mask off of me!
Then you need to pay more attention. The numbers of people getting COVID and dying that have been vaccinated are exceeding the numbers of unvaccinated and even then not all the vaccinated cases are being recorded.
How could that be, he was VACCINATED. Only the Unvaccinated die, MSM told us so.
No he wasn;’t!
used to love Colin Powell heard him speak once but then he showed he was a RINO , still have sympathy for his family who loved him
Perhaps too much of a Bush leaning RHINO favoring the NWO, I knew him personally while in the military and he was a decent yet politically pre-disposed person using his AA heritage to his advantage. RIP.
Hooray 1 less RINO
Don;t be cruel right now.
Shouldn’t have been on obamacare.
Very positive news. Waiting for next and more evils to joint him. Nice start.
Hey, let;s hold that in for a few days please!
Covid- related ? I am SURE he had the VAX…. what does that tell you ?
HE DID NOT GET THE VAX!!!
THE VAX IS GOOD!!! I GOT THE VAX, I’M FINE!!! AND I WANT THIS MASK OFF OF MY FACE BUT MY BOSS REFUSES TO TAKE OF OFF ME CAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU!
I lost all respect for him when he endorsed Obama.
Okay military commander, closet RINO………Republican my ass……..
Colin Powell was a “swamp-snake” who made conservative statements at times. I’m sure he was nice otherwise, but he was more of a problem perpetuating the “deep state” joining people like “Mittens” Romney and others. Sorry he’s dead, but he was a globalist. Complications from Wuhan flu?…six to and even he died from the poisonous jab people are being forced to get. His absence removes one more obstacle to reviving the republic.
Great loss for America, Gen Powell was a true American and a hero who fought for our rights and loved our constitution. He will be sorely missed to say the least!
He should have gotten the vaccine!
This General spent many years supporting Israel. He even spoke Hebrew. He was a good man. Why he jumped off the cliff is a mystery. Some say he didn’t want to have to say NO to running for President and knew if he said the “wrong” things he would be left alone. Big disappointment to see how he changed his thought process . He turned his back on Israel too.
Who gives a Flying Fart?…Powell was a Deep State War Criminal RINO!!!…Remember, he crossed party lines and endorsed Joe BrainDead, the worst prez of all time!
Was it complications FROM Covid or was it from some other primary cause with Covid being the present? There have been far more deaths from other primary causes WITH Covid than from Covid as the primary cause. Even traffic accidents, gunshot wounds and alcohol poisoning have been falsely accredited to Covid in numerous cases. If a person dies from any cause within 60 days of having or testing positive for Covid the CDC says it can be listed as Covid related. That’s how the 600,000 death total has been inflated.
Whatever the cause of his demise, the Progressive New World Order has lost one of their own, there are still too many of them around.
Why will the next election be any different than the last one ?
“Covid complications” could be true, or it could just mean that he tested positive for Covid during the month before he died of unrelated causes. Unfortunately, the CDC treats these issues as Covid deaths in their reports, so it’s impossible to know how much, if any, of his death was due to Covid. Reportage on anything related to Covid is now so heavily biased by political issues that it is no longer credible without outside confirmation from reliable sources. Those are hard to find because they are being actively suppressed/censored by the government and media. So, realistically, we have no idea how Sec. Powell died or why.
Whether or not you agreed with all of his political positions, he was a decorated military veteran, who had “been there, done that,” including combat for his country. He deserves your respect for that regardless of his political views. The fact is, the man paid his dues to society. Let him rest in peace.
My first thought was I wonder if he was vaccinated. I see he was fully vaccinated. Wonder how the press is going to spin this one. All people over 70 must be vaccinated to keep them safe. Yeah right! My cousin writes in Colin Powell’s name every presidential election. Wonder who he’s voting for now.
Gen Powell should have run for president. He would have been awesome for our country
And now we have Milley! Somewhere between sad & tragic.
This is why the country is so divided – he was a great American who did what he thought was best for America – now all this ridiculous commentary about him being dead is good, etc. – how pathetic!
Well Powell lived longer than most black people so that has to be good . But most likely he died of Cancer and not The COVID.
