Colin Powell, the first black Secretary of State who formulated foreign policy under several presidents, died Monday morning at the age of 84 of complications from COVID. The Pentagon powerhouse who served as a soldier in Vietnam and went on to become Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was fully vaccinated and battling blood cancer and Parkinson's when he passed away at Walter Reed Medical Center in Maryland, according to his family. Retired Four-Star General Powell, who was also suffering from Parkinson's, is survived by his wife of 59 years,

He had Parkinson's, blood cancer, and was 84 years old. And he died of COVID? Yeah, right, tell yourselves that.

I'm not a doctor but I have a degree in biology and I have some thoughts. General Powell had multiple myeloma which a a type of cancer that attacks plasma cells in the blood stream. Healthy plasma cells help fight infections by making antibodies that recognize and attack germs. I would guess that Gen. Powell's plasma cells were few and weak. That, added to the fact that he was 84 would leave him vulnerable to infection with covid or any other illness. I don't think he died of covid, he died WITH covid. There's a difference but the press doesn't seem to be able to grasp it.

As usual, the headline makes it seem as if it was the virus that led to his death. However, it is clear that he was another one of those "died with Covid" cases that become "died of Covid" in order to advance the narrative. And can someone please tell me what is the advantage of being "vaccinated" if you can still catch the disease? Anyone?

I have to agree that he died WITH covid not necessarily because of covid. But we know how the msm will react. Yet, how will they square the circle with the fact he had taken his shots? It is not immunization, the shot is an inoculation like the flu shot. Polio/smallpox are a true vaccine. Stop calling it what it is not. May he rest in peace.

It appears Powell died of complications with cancer and parkinson's disease, which are terminal. Did he have Covid, or did he just test positive to Covid so the hospital gets more revenue? It does seem uncanny that everyone dies with Covid.

They're fools to declare he died of Covid after being fully vaxed!
Many of us don't believe in the "vaccine" and this just proves our point!

So his age, the blood cancer and Parkinson's had nothing to do with Powell's death? But the Covid did? BS. His age and his immune system was already weakened by the cancer and Parkinson's. Covid helped. It's easy to blame Covid and Covid meets CNN's direction. Don't blame the Covid. It's the end of life. Everyone has one.

#7 -- They are fools for reporting that he died from COVID complications and was fully vaxxed. These are the same people who want everyone to run out and get the shot, yet this kind of coverage shoot a hole straight through their narrative. Absolute idiots, but hey, I'm ok with it this time b/c I don't think the INOCULATION does much good. Not nearly as good as natural immunity.

When my husband was ill, heart failure, he was in the ER and a room. They (medical and Dr.) had him tested for covid...six times, looking for covid. All tests came back negative. Soon after, he died (at home). I think they were looking for that 33k payoff from Uncle Sam and probably were very disappointed when their tests all came back negative. He died of heart failure. So, it's possible. General Powell was so sick and aged, he died from his own medical problems. So, "they" will get their 33k from his death. Cause of death ... covid. May he rest in peace. Bless his family. He was a General who performed his military duties with grace, kindness and love of country/job. Not like the horse's behinds we have for military leaders now.

Even though he turned out to be a RINO, his vaccinations and boosters didn't help, like those saline shots the left side elites are getting.

The "vaccination" doesn't prevent you from being infected with the Wuhan virus.
It doesn't protect you from getting sick and dying, either.
And, by itself, the "vaccination" can kill a healthy person.
And it is NOT a vaccine, it is a gene therapy, and it is going to wind up becoming a bigger cause of death over time than this virus ever was. Mark my words. The "vaccine" is the real killer here.

Late in life General Powell seemingly became obsessed with skin colour in public coments. A good man, though, may he rest in peace.

A great loss - - - especially if he was otherwise healthy. If he was, the gain-of-function gang, the not-effective vaccine, and the medical & pharma communities took him too soon.

CLEARLY...He was murdered.
By people refusing to be vaxx'd and masked.
50 FBI agents should immediately be deployed to discover exactly WHO gave him this death dose!

This sad situation is ripe for the picking, and unfortunately there is something here for everyone--both the vax proponents as well as the antivax. A man as wise as Powell must have been, he would say, don't bother trying to figure it out. We should just use what little freedom of choice we still have before it's gone.

RIP General, and thank you for your service. My admiration would have been far greater were it not for your support of the Kenyan Destroyer.

The Covid part is undoubtedly a lie. They throw that in for effect.

I think the vaccination shots should be by choice not mandatory. Saying that, Collin Powell was 84, suffered from Parkinson and blood cancer. But Covin did him in. No joke. Come on man. Right joe?

I don't believe, for a second, that Colin Powell died of anything but what ailed him. Covid played a part in the propaganda...

Medical studies done with MM(his blood disease) patients clearly show that both of the "Popular" vaccines generate a sub standard immune response in those people with the disease, Moderna is somewhat better, but still only 46% of the response in "Normal" people, minimum effective level is 147 IU/ml after second dose, 1st dose barely registered above baseline...even after second dose most MM patients did not achieve even the 147 iu/ml. Most were around 50-100 IU/ml. If they were receiving steroid treatments it was even lower. "Normal effective Immune response" is in the 500-8000 IU/ml range in "Healthy" subjects.

Yes he died from his underlying medical conditions, and with Covid. He did not die from Covid.

I didn't realize he had several health problems. Any one of them can lead to a tragic end. RIP.
