Architect of the Iraq War, the War on “Terror” and the CIA torture program, wanted to invade Iran really bad, shot a guy, endorsed Kamala Harris

If you’ve got 2 hours to kill I recommend the movie about him, Vice, neatly explains all the ghoul shit he did.

He gave up his highly lucrative position as CEO of Halliburton in 2000 to run for U.S. Vice President, Haliburton has made at least $39.5 billion in Iraq since the invasion of occupation, he profited more as the relatively low paid VP by pushing the country in another war

He was the main architect of the invasion and occupation and was a large factor in the pushing of knowingly false information like ‘Mohammed Atta met with Iraqi intelligence’ which is completely false but helped cement the connection between Iraq and 9/11 in the eyes of enough of the public that they were able to invade without too much domestic resistance

Enabled and later excused the ‘enhanced interrogation’ torture of detainees specifically in those in Guantanamo, he publicly stated waterboarding and other even worse techniques were ‘absolutely necessary’

He also got away with shooting one of his friends so you know he’s also a dick on a personal level too

Basically every bad foreign policy that the Bush 2 administration did can also be laid at Cheney’s feet. He strongly believe in the Unitary Executive and would seize that role for himself whenever possible.

But to millions around the world, he was also a deeply divisive figure, his legacy tainted by bloodshed and chaos following the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, lies about Baghdad’s non-existent weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), domestic cyber-snooping and the torture of Guantanamo Bay inmates.
