November 17, 2017The Department of Defense’s Twitter followers got a pretty unwelcome surprise when they saw that the agency had re-tweeted THIS from their official account…
The tweet reads:
The solution is simple…
Roy Moore: Step down from the race.
Al Franken: Resign from Congress.
Donald Trump: Resign from the presidency.
GOP: Stop making sexual assault a partisan issue. It’s a crime as is your hypocrisy.
Excuse me… what?!?!
The tweet has since been deleted, and the DOD attempted to explain it away…
An authorized operator of the @DeptofDefense’s official Twitter site erroneously retweeted content that would not be endorsed by the Department of Defense. The operator caught this error and immediately deleted it.

Dana White is “Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs.” and urges Twitter users to “Follow here for breaking news, statements, and updates from #SecDef and the #DoD.”
This also sounds like a BS explanation….
Why the hell was an “authorized operator” poking around on resistance Tweets in the first place?
I really feel like this was done on purpose by some little idiot who thought he/she would be part of the “resistance” and push out this “important message.”
Yes, they deleted it soon after… but the damage was done.
Absolutely unacceptable.
