George W. Bush's CIA Director Gen. Michael Hayden calls Trump supporters 'our Taliban'
2021-08-24
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Retired General Michael Hayden bashed 'MAGA wearing unvaxxed' people after Donald Trump held a rally in Alabama criticized as a 'super spreader' event

  • He appeared to endorse an image calling Trump supporters 'Our Taliban'

  • GOP Congressman Jim Banks was one of the people calling out Hayden

  • Hayden did not reply but retweeted another user dismissing Banks's comment

  • Hayden was first appointed to the intel community by former President Bill Clinton before serving under President George W. Bush's administration

  • The retired general was once accused of lying to Congress over CIA torture

From a Wikipedia entry: Director of the National Security Agency (NSA) from 1999 to 2005. It appears Mike missed some data then as badly as he is missing data now.
