Tucker Carlson has once again set the military in his sights and fired back at the Pentagon after he was berated by military leaders for comments he made about changes in the Defense Department to attract more women into the armed forces.
The changes include updating grooming standards allowing for a wider range of hairstyles to be admitted as well as redesigning flight suits to fit better for those who are pregnant.
But Carlson did not appear to appreciate the changes and slammed what he called ‘woke generals’ after they criticized him for comments made earlier in the week when he said the changes ‘made a mockery of the U.S. military.’
Carlson said on his Fox News show on Friday night: ‘We were almost rattled. Then we realized if the woke generals treat us like they’ve treated the Taliban, we’ll be fine. Twenty years later, the Taliban are still here.

Tucker criticizes, the Pentagon responds and Tucker follows up. How unrealistic are Biden’s changes to the military? Do you think a feminized US military can compete with the Chinese?

As a 20 year navy vet, i am GLAD I AM NO longer in this sham and hollow image, of what our military USED TO be…
You are correct, the U.S. military is now just a woke, nancyboy social club.
Love Tucker!
I still don’t know, WHY HE’s sticking with FAUX news.. JUST SHIFT over to ONN already..
Still waiting for the military to prove their contention that women are as good as men as combat troops. Make an all-female battalion and have them compete against an all male group in war games. As for pregnant women, any military including them would be a joke to the rest. Constant morning sickness on a sub or maternity leave mid-war would be very inconvenient.
To hell with “War Games”, pull all of our men out of foreign deployments, and replace them with women.
Let’s see how this all works in the REAL world!
Presently mixing women in with male troops is an Achilles heel for the men. It weakens them as the male protective instinct is strong in men who choose the military and a man looking out for a woman who simply can’t keep up is needlessly endangered himself. (Same goes for cops). During battle, captured female troops are susceptible to rape by the enemy. Then there’s the inevitable fraternization temptation with pregnancies or women complaining of sexual harassment, sowing dissension and demoralizing their own troops. Just a bad idea all around.
Speaking of pulling them out, Where are the PEACE demonstrators and other famous anti-war Democrats?
President Trump worked hard to get our troops out of foreign wars and within two months the Democrats are carpet bombing(tm) the middle east.
Seems the entire Free Press(tm) are just fine with it.
IMO IT was a bad idea, when they STARTED putting women in combat units, and on ships (as evidenced by the sheer # of gals having pregnancies to get out of deployments and the like). ITS still a bad idea now..
NOTHING has changed my mind.
Max Daddy, I’m not sure you’re sufficiently woke, speaking of “pulling out” with respect to female military forces.
Yep, with the G forces in a jet fighter, a pregnant woman in a flight suit, will really be able to stand the G forces, while she is pregnant. Another waste of taxpayer money on flight suits for pregnant women, when they cannot fly, as the G forces might kill the baby. Tucker, the woke culture in the Pentagon is right on. The woke culture / queen boys in the Pentagon can go to you know where! Tiananmen Square is coming to the American streets, at the direction of the communists in Washington DC and the top brass / woke culture in the Pentagon. The slaughter of innocent Americans on our streets, courtesy of the communists.
Ironic, actually dangerously ironic, China wants to reduce estrogen in their military and Biden wants to increase it in our military! Well, maybe not Biden, he just does as he is told. Still, this would be funny were it not our country, our liberty, our freedom, our very lives that are at stake!
Woke generals are the kind that get us into wars unprepared and then won’t let us win. Seen it before there wasn’t even such a term as “woke” generals.
It honestly surprises me HOW MANY GENERALS and admirals we still ******* have, these days..
The woke wimps are the generals and contractors in the Pentagon. They all need to resign. They mislead our military and could lead them to disaster. But I know it ain’t going to happen, so in 2022 we will clean their clocks. There will be a tsunami backlash on the lefties and their woke wimps.
They certainly have proven they don’t follow their oath.
>> so in 2022 we will clean their clocks <<
That's what we were saying in 2020. Didn't work out.
Really?? What with the left, CODIFYING their fraud machine into law, and the like, HOW EXACTLY do you expect that ‘backlash’ to occur?
When we get enough females in combat rolls, we’ll be invaded and conquered by Cuba.
How did so many castrated men in this country end up running it, oh yeah, it was when the left got a hold of them and turned them into sad little wimps.
“I’m sorry General; we can’t attack right now. All of the men are at a baby shower!”
Sorry general we can’t attack.. WE received a letter from the enemy saying our “attacking them, is offensive, and we need to go to mandatory sensitivity training”..
Bidens a Chinese plant and a dumba$$
Leftist ignorance/irony: “It’s a good thing we can use the military now to keep the fascists in line!”
SMH. Women served in multiple militaries during WWII and beyond so I see no problem with them doing so. And as to the pregnancy issue, I know there have been women in the service to intentionally avoid being deployed which tells me they never should’ve been in in the first place, but I also don’t see that many actually wanting to join but I also know there are many jobs outside of combat they could handle so the whole premise is a childish farce on both sides.
Yes, in WW11, they filled those jobs, but that isn’t what they are talking about here.
MOST of the women’s jobs in WW2, were support roles, such as flying the planes from where they were made, to our bases. OR as nurses etc.. NOT IN FRONT line units.
Russia drafted women out of desperation. They also executed everyone above the rank of sergeant and sent troops into battle unarmed, telling them to pick up the rifle of the man in front of them who just got shot. Anyone retreating was shot.
Let’s not go there.
Biden is nuts commercial airlines do not want you to fly after a certain time in pregnancy – What happened to the Articles of Impeachment levied on Biden by Rep Greene
Probably disappeared into the ether..
The Dutch military became a social change organization years ago but it basically has no import in the world. It seems ours will become more like the Boy Scouts. China, Russia, and North Korea must be laughing their butts off!!!!
I can’t believe any woman who is pregnant would be willing to risk her unborn child’s life in this way. Why don’t you just go get an abortion and get it over with. Probably because when they lose their child doing things they have no business doing to begin with they will sue (and probably win). This is a very sick and evil nation now.
With the other stupid stuff, i’ve seen folks sue for, AND WIN, i certainly wouldn’t be shocked if that happened.
We need to distinguish between women in combat roles and women in support roles. I’m a female former Air Force officer myself (1970-80), and I know that women do excellent work in support and maintenance operations. In fact, some have argued that we get more men into combat when women in support roles can free men up to deploy. It’s the combat roles where we start having problems — and studies after studies have shown this, with mixed units almost always performing worse than all-male units. I should add that when I was in the USAF, I used to whine about women being barred from combat roles where they could get the visibility necessary for promotions. But after reviewing the studies — and recognizing reality — I’ve completely changed my mind.
The point of the military is to kill the enemy as quickly and convincingly as possible, which is actually the most humane way to wage war. Or, as we used to say in the old deterrence motto of SAC, “Peace Is Our Profession.” And the way to do that is to have the strongest and most warlike fighting force possible.
Back in the 80s, iirc when one of the generals SAID something to that effect, he got lambasted for “Denying women the right to serve in combat”, or some other such bull…
