Pentagon Grapples With How To Defend Military Women From Tucker Carlson's Insults

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth on Friday called for military leaders to “stand up for women” amid a roiling Defense Department controversy over how to respond to vicious criticism of female soldiers by Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

A fierce debate was triggered after Maj. Gen. Patrick Donahoe was recently scolded by the Army — and his retirement put on hold — for defending female soldiers, with one of his tweets last year calling out Carlson.

Retired Col. Yevgeny Vindman — the twin brother of retired Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who testified at Donald Trump’s first impeachment investigation during his presidency — lashed out last month at the treatment of Donahoe by an Army cowed by the political right because he “stood up to Fox/ Tucky.”

The Pentagon and the Army “are lost. They fear the right,” Yevgeny Vindman tweeted. “They are losing their moral compass and service-members will vote with their feet.”

1. Grappling how to defend? Really?

2. This is nothing short of outrageous

and of course the allegedly liberal critics of cancel culture, such as Bill Maher are silent about this. I fully expected the tweet by the General to be at least somewhat unprofessional but it was nothing of the sort.

Worldwide. Simple to do. And say why.

4. Tucker is too interested in tanning his balls to risk them serving in our county's military.

5. Trick TC into inviting a woman soldier onto his show & she challenges

him to a fight the next day.

I'd like to see female soldiers take him on and kick his sorry ass.
