General Kelly's lies

The way he went after Congresswoman Wilson is proof he is willing to lie.

There is no honor in fanning the flames of racists as we now see happening against her.

While the media fawns over General Kelly I just get sickened by his callous disregard for the truth.

He is disgusting.

I'm sick to my stomach with disgust over those who still believe Kelly's lies over a congress woman who has done what honest and the best politicians do - dedicate to making the lives of their constituencies better - day in and day out!

I'm just disgusted with those who only see white male General and automatically side with him over a black female duly elected congress woman, without bothering to fact check General Kelly. He lied about what she said at the FBI dedication and called her "out of her name". In fact, both he and 45 have disrespected the family and friends by referring to them, not by their given names, but as they, she, your guy, etc.

Many do by changing the name slightly.

Names with a blue checkmark after then are confirmed as original. That's the key.
