Colin Powell, Rest in Peace

BUCK: Just wanted to note that we have seen and there’s certainly a lot of people out there who are mourning right now the passing of Colin Powell, former secretary of state, soldier, general, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. You all remember him from several administrations. He passed away of covid-19 complications while battling multiple myeloma, cancer.

The people we will see all across TV who knew him will be talking about his legacy and go into a period of mourning, and perhaps we’ll have some discussion about that era of foreign policy and the role that Colin Powell played. But for right now just thoughts and prayers to his family and Colin Powell rest in peace. I’ve seen some people trying to politicize, in some way, the fact that he was double vaccinated.

He’s 84 years old and battling cancer; so no one thinks… At no point did anyone believe that if you’re 84 and vaccinated you’re 100% going to be okay, especially if you have a condition like myeloma that you’re battling. So I do not think that’s really going to be a discussion. But right now, Colin Powell is somebody they’re paying their respects to. So wanted to say that.
