Pentagon says it was 'a fat finger mistake' when Biden's defense secretary retweeted a screenshot from one of Tucker Carlson's pro-Putin monologues

Fat Finger

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin retweeted a screenshot from Tucker Carlson's show on Monday.

The Pentagon quickly clarified that it was the result of "a fat finger mistake."

The screenshot was from one of the Fox News host's pro-Putin monologues.

After Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin retweeted a screenshot from one of Tucker Carlson's pre-invasion monologues sympathetic to Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Pentagon's press secretary said it was an accident.

These are the people in charge of our Military. FAT FINGER?

Milley is reading about Lesbian persecution and Austin is a blathering Idiot.

It’s a fair bet with bumbling Biden, they get us all killed.

He’s Tweeting!

They have bunkers, they don't buy groceries or gas. They could care less if we suffer.

Oh, OK, anything criticizing FJB’s foreign policy is now “pro-Putin”...thanks, Main Stream Misledia.

Bovine Scat.

To acknowledge the intelligence and cunning of an enemy is not to be on their side.

Neither is acknowledging the incompetence and declining mental acuity of Biden “pro-Putin”.

Is this the comedy section, like “The Bee”? Yahoo is predictably funny when they pretend to be serious too.

I was somewhat sympathetic to Putin because of his pro Christian support. His little war ended that.

So if you protested the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, you were pro-Saddam and pro-Taliban? I guess so.

None of this is “pro-Putin”. Obviously, the lying yahoo and business insider have no idea what they are talking about.

‘Fat Finger’ is considered derogatory to overweight people.

It’s a forbidden term at many corporations now. I know an airline pilot/instructor who got in trouble for saying it.

Pentagon should flagellate itself.

I heard the monologue and as I recall, he was trying to explain Putin’s position. And I agree with Tucker. Whenever there is possible conflict, examine the thinking of both sides and what happened to cause them to take the positions they do. Understanding your enemy leads to defeating your enemy.

.

So, in the last day or so, Putin put troops on
Nuclear alert (one escalation condition) and Biden says that he didn’t expect sanctions to do anything, and then follows up with - he has no idea if Russian is threatening us.

So, the U.S. Defense Secretary is Tweeting - and he can’t do that competently.

WTF!
