Imagine that.

Capital Hill police officer not killed by blunt force trauma to the head. May not have even been hit.

Wonder if White House.gov will acknowledge correction after releasing this statement?

Of course not.

Nor will most media outlets.

It wasn't exactly a retraction, more like a stealth correction.
It was an awful event but that doesn't excuse the grossly inaccurate coverage. I think a 9/11-style commission to investigate is probably a good idea at this point....

https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-false-and-exaggerated-claims?r=7y7g9&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email&utm_source=copyRumor has it Pelosi wants to put Gen Honore in charge of "9/11 style commission" to investigate. Research Gen Honore, it is a very bad idea to put him in charge of anything. No truth will be told.

A "9/11 style" commission will be used to skewer Trump, Trumpies and Republican party. No truth will be told.

Been hearing this all week. It seems easy to diagnose. Dies of head trauma or stroke. Sucks he died but it doesn't fit the narrative?[Shake]

I was his personal driver back in the mid to late 90’s when he was a Full Bird Colonel at Fort Stewart’s 1st Brigade. He was a good guy, enjoyed working for him and an outstanding leader. Don’t know why happened to him the past few years. What a shame. No fan of Trump and claimed he didn’t care much for brown people when referring to Puerto Rico.
I’m curious to see what he would find and report or if he would be honest at least.

From comments he has made the last couple of years, it appears he is very partisan and not particularly interested in the truth.

My thoughts: a lot of the flag level retirees sell their soul to the DC bubble - it?s tied to power, prestige and money for their post military career.

My fist encounter with Honore was in ?95 when he was a 1-star at Ft Hood. Total jack wagon for no good reason - that has stuck with me to this day.
