ALLUM BOKHARI: Michael Hayden has been in the news lately after he called for Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville to be "removed from the human race," a comment the senator condemned as a call for assassination. This wasn't the first partisan outburst from Hayden. He's also compared Trump supporters to the Taliban, called the Trump movement "more dangerous than al Qaeda," and even said that unvaxxed MAGA supporters should be given a "one-way ticket to Afghanistan."
But who is Michael Hayden and why should we care? Hayden is currently an advisor to NewsGuard, an organization that claims to offer nonpartisan assessments on the trustworthiness of news outlets. More on them later.
First, let's take a look at the man who wants Americans to disappear for their political beliefs. This is a former four-star general who was at the pinnacle of the U.S. intelligence community. He served under three presidents, going from one top spy role to the next. He was director of the NSA under Clinton and Bush, at a time when its domestic surveillance of Americans went into overdrive. He was deputy director of national intelligence again under Bush, and he was director of the CIA under Bush and Obama.
Throughout this long career as a spy chief, Hayden was accused of brazenly lying to Congress and the American people about everything from the surveillance of Americans to torture programs in the war on terror. Before Hayden became a professional anti-MAGA pundit, the liberal media was happy to report on his long record of lies and half-truths.

We have some truly evil people working at high levels in government with no accountability. I can’t imagine putting my life on the line with these creeps pulling the strings of war.
SUPER WEIRD dude.
When you make deception your primary means, things do not turn out well for you.
This was an IQ test for you, Michael Hayden.
There are two ways to live life:
1. striving to sacrifice your own needs for the benefit of others
2. striving to sacrifice the needs of others for your own benefit
When you live by the second way, then deceptiveness becomes necessary.
He should have been thrown out or locked up long ago.
dear michael hayden .....
“snaps fingers with pointer finger down”
Apparently no followup from the capital police on the threat. The Senator is a Republican, in the underclass for legal protection.
Oh well that's nice. 🙄
He’s a deep state spook.
When I was in the Air Force, I used to work for him.
I am ashamed of this retired AF general whom I Once liked
What was he like?
He is a disgrace.
He was my commander, but I was on staff so saw him during meetings. He was pretty smart and sometimes witty. My boss direct reported to him. Hayden Kind of aloof but I was a Master Sergeant and he was a Colonel with a Star coming when he left.
I stand corrected. He was already a BRIG (in Germany when I was on staff). I remember he gave a briefing on bomb loads and the shrinking footprint of destruction over the years. Pretty interesting seeing how we went from just lobbing stuff hoping some would hit the target to 1 meter precision over continents.
He went on to become AFIC/AIA commander. I saw him once after that.
I can’t stand him now. He’s totally gone off the deep end as far as I can tell.
Thanks!
