The Pentagon\u2019s Fight With Tucker Carlson Proves It Doesn\u2019t Even Exist To Win Wars Anymore<\/a><\/p>\n

Tucker Carlson may have never served in the armed forces, but he\u2019s still decisively winning a PR war against the U.S. military. That shouldn\u2019t surprise anyone, of course. The U.S. military loses most of the wars it fights these days.<\/p>\n

During America\u2019s long golden age as a country, the military typically abstained from politics and won wars. But in the decaying Globalist American Empire, the military plays a very different role.\u00a0Protecting America and winning conflicts isn\u2019t the military\u2019s goal at all. Instead, the armed forces have become a skinsuit. This once-great institution has been repurposed into a vehicle for globalist and left-wing domestic political goals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The clash between Carlson and the DoD began on Monday. In remarks delivered for the\u00a0Communist holiday<\/a>\u00a0of International Women\u2019s Day, Biden boasted of how he and President Obama had worked to make the military a fully gender-neutral body:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m incredibly proud that in 2015, under the Obama-Biden administration, we took the final steps to open up all positions in the military to anyone qualified to serve in them. The women who join today\u2019s military aren\u2019t told \u201cno\u201d when they apply to fly fighter jets or attack helicopters just because of their gender. They aren\u2019t told \u201cno\u201d when they want to apply to Ranger School or infantry officer basic training.\u00a0[White House]<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Biden bragged that it is easier than ever for pregnant women, and women who care about their appearance, to serve in the armed forces.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re making good progress designing body armor that fits women properly; tailoring combat uniforms for women; creating maternity flight suits; updating \u2014 updating requirements for their hairstyles.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And Biden said, overtly, that his administration would be fighting to change the military to make it\u00a0more feminine<\/em>, a place where a woman trying to become a general is as easy to understand as a woman becoming a teacher or a nurse.<\/p>\n

And some of it is going to take \u2014 and \u2014 you know, an intensity of purpose and mission to really change the culture and habits that cause women to leave the military: That women are \u2014 making sure more diverse candidates are considering \u2014 being considered for career-advancing opportunities at every single level. That women aren\u2019t penalized in their careers for having children. That women aren\u2019t just token members, but integral parts throughout all branches and all divisions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In response, on Tuesday night, Tucker Carlson said what any American would have said 50 years ago, and what every reasonable person still believes now: That making the military more feminine makes it weaker, not stronger, and that carving out new rules so that pregnant women can serve (while keeping their hairstyles and painted nails to boot) is grotesque.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

Nothing Carlson said is insane, or even particularly notable. What\u2019s notable is the shrill, borderline ridiculous response from the once-apolitical Defense establishment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not a screencap from DNC, or Slate, or the Center for American Progress. That\u2019s a screencap from Defense.gov, an official website of the American military. It should be disturbing to anybody who cares about the military\u2019s overall efficacy. How can anyone feel confidence in a military that writes headlines about it \u201csmiting\u201d TV talking heads who \u201cdissed\u201d it?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The body text is no less appalling:<\/p>\n

The United States military is the greatest the world has ever seen because of its diversity, Pentagon Press Secretary John F. Kirby said during a news briefing this morning. Kirby addressed this because a Fox cable show host used his show to denigrate the contributions of women in the military and to say the Chinese military is catching up to the U.S. military because it does not allow women to serve in the percentage the United States does.\u00a0[Department of Defense]<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sick burn! They don\u2019t even say the loser\u2019s name, because he\u2019s so\u00a0<\/em>lame like that.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Department of Defense used Twitter to issue another passive-aggressive attack on Carlson, but in fitting fashion, this attack hurt the one making it more than the target:<\/p>\n
