Tuberville Files Police Report Against Former CIA Director Michael Hayden For A Mean Tweet

[highplainsdem]

Personally, I don't think it was mean at all.

https://www.meidastouch.com/news/tuberville-files-police-report-against-fmr-cia-director-for-mean-tweet

When twitter user Nathalie Jacoby posted a picture of Senator Tommy Tuberville and asked whether he should be removed from his committee, former Director of the CIA and NSA, General Michael Hayden responded, "How about the human race?"

Hayden's post set off a firestorm on the Right. At the time of this article, it received 3,534 mostly angry replies from the blue-check MAGA mafia. The replies mostly state that Hayden's post is a "death threat" against Tuberville.

No doubt, the former General and national security official has been irate at Tuberville holding up military promotions and diplomatic appointments over abortion policy.

The blockheaded old ball coach from Alabama decided that he wasn't going to stand for Hayden's Mean Tweet. Instead of confirming diplomats and military officers critically needed in the Middle East, Tuberville decided to file a criminal complaint against the former CIA Director.

A sickening human being

[Kid Berwyn]

23. Truly sickening. Plus, Tuberville's a fraud.

His partner went to jail. Coach Tubs skated.



“This is an astounding story,” Sessions said. “Based on the facts already uncovered, it is clear that Tommy Tuberville was one of two partners in a major hedge fund fraud scheme that bilked large sums of money from hardworking people, including Alabamians.”

https://www.alreporter.com/2020/07/06/sessions-tubervilles-fraud-scandal-cant-just-be-swept-under-the-rug/

Can't believe he took the seat held by a good man, Sen. Doug Jones.

[marble falls]

3. I support Gen Hadyen. Tuberville is a disgusting PoS. He's welcome to try and sue me.

[pwb]

4. Tiny Tuberville

plays on Putins team. Putin puts his men in easy poor states, who don't know any better, or care.

[SWBTATTReg]

5. Personally, since you're holding up promotions of many qualified people for your personal belief,

what right do you have to impose these beliefs on others who have earned their promotions?

I would report you, to the Capitol Police instead, for inflicting harm to others that deserve their hard-earned promotions. Take out your personal beliefs in some other manner and don't inflict any more harm on our service men and women, who are putting their life in danger for ALL of us.

[Diamond_Dog]

7. Tooby -

What a butt hurt snowflake!

MAGATs sure can dish it out but they can’t take it.

[Sogo]

8. So, when tfg said Gen. Miley should be executed,

was that a "death threat?"

[MadameButterfly]

14. clearly Hayden was questioning Tuberville's humanity

not his right to live. But I can see how they can twist it the way they want to see it. So, does Hayden have a bunch of thugs who follow him and commit violenced based on what he says, who he encourages even after they have done so?

These are distinctions too fine for the Magas. But amazing how serious they think death threats are, when they imagine to be on the receiving end.

[JohnSJ]

9. What crime? Exercising his first amendment rights? It seems the insurrectionists only want the

first amendment to apply to them, and no one else

[Lonestarblue]

10. I guess the truth hurts!

[Lovie777]

11. GQP can dish it out, especially the hatred and violence................

GQP are cowards.

[Clash City Rocker]

12. When did Tommy join the human race?

[housecat]

13. Proves once more, you can't fix stupid. But we can shine a light on it

[blogslug]

15. I hope that a reporter remembers this the next time Tommy shrugs off one of TFG's threats

Because we all know TFG will continue to make threats and MAGAs like Senator Football will pretend it's all just "locker talk".

[Marius25]

16. Isn't filing a false police report illegal?

[The Unmitigated Gall]

17. Hey, Tommy?

I agree with Hayden.

Fuck you to hell and back. Then back to hell and leave your traitor ass in the ninth circle, or wherever something that worthless belongs.

[C_U_L8R]

18. I agree, he's sub-human.

He does not in any way deserve to be counted among decent people. He's more at home amongst crusting turds and old toe nail clippings.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

19. Tuberville is a very dumb person

[senseandsensibility]

20. Yup

Each day he proves it more.

[JoseBalow]

21. Tooberville is a Florida resident and should be disqualified from representing Alabama in the Senate

[Hermit-The-Prog]

22. Putini's Tommy Tuberville has a sad.

IF the comment came from some deranged radical (a MAGAt, for example), it would need to be treated as a credible threat and investigated. General Hayden's history of service protecting our Constitution is very strong evidence that this was humor. Putin's puppet be damned.

[MLAA]

24. Idiot tubberville had no issue with tfg's threat of executing General Milley.

Who knew an Alabama football coach would not make a reasonable politician?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

25. This makes me smile

[Deep State Witch]

26. But It's Okay

for TFG to call for people's executions? Tuberville isn't fit to wipe Gen. Hayden's ass.

[Renew Deal]

27. Don't know if it's illegal

But it is over the top.
