Former Vice President And War Criminal Dick Cheney Dead At 84

He led the way to Donald Trump (and Stephen Miller).
By Frances Langum — November 4, 2025

The Cheney family released a statement announcing the death of Dick Cheney, George W. Bush's vice president, who lied the country into war with Iraq and also approved the torture of prisoners of war.

He was not a good person.

The parlor game today is to count the number of times the mainstream media whitewashes his legacy.

The first paragraph of Dick Cheney's CNN Obit is not only #podcastable, it's going to win a #Crookie award for 2025. @driftglass.bsky.social www.cnn.com/2025/11/04/p...

Voting for Kamala Harris in 2024 is not enough to keep him out of Hell. The end.
