@BFriedmanDC That better describes this admin than American Soldiers. — Southern Cross (@GeneCarithers) June 5, 2014

@BFriedmanDC Interesting in that millions of citizens are REALLY wondering if WH is long on psychopaths and short on leadership. — cordelia lear (@iowemysoul) June 5, 2014

You’ve got to read this to believe it all. Obama administration Brandon Friedman of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development public affairs office (and formerly an official at the Department of Veterans Affairs) took to Twitter to launch another attack trial balloon on the troops on the ground who’ve been blowing the whistle on Bowe Bergdahl’s abandonment of post.

Cliff Notes version of the latest desperate White House spin: Bergdahl’s colleagues are all psychopaths.

What if he grew disillusioned with what he saw, didn't trust his leadership, and walked off? Legal? No. Worthy of sympathy? Maybe. (2/5) — Brandon Friedman (@BFriedmanDC) June 5, 2014

If that were the case, the soldiers in his platoon would have all the more reason to smear him publicly now. (3/5) — Brandon Friedman (@BFriedmanDC) June 5, 2014

Given other examples, it's not out of the realm of possibility–and more reason to withhold judgment until after an investigation. (4/5) — Brandon Friedman (@BFriedmanDC) June 5, 2014

I'm not a fan of such speculation, but this story could not be more unbalanced–with so many premature calls of "traitor." (5/5) — Brandon Friedman (@BFriedmanDC) June 5, 2014

He’s putting the blame for Bergdahl’s betrayal on the rest of his platoon. Insane in the membrane.

Blame the platoon => "@BFriedmanDC: Here's the thing about Bergdahl: What if his platoon was long on psychopaths and short on leadership?" — John Gort (@JohnGort) June 5, 2014

These are like the most insane tweets I've ever seen from an Admin official.. pic.twitter.com/Nf1758N8yr — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) June 5, 2014

@redsteeze Obama admin is calling soldiers who ruined their narrative psychopaths?? — Lipstick (@Lipstick55) June 5, 2014

Yep. After spewing wild speculations, Friedman calls for “withholding judgment.”

@BFriedmanDC Talk about jumping to conclusions! — GleasonG (@GleasonGail) June 5, 2014

These henchmen have no shame. Taking their cue from the top.

@BFriedmanDC Yeah, you're right….much better chance LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE is the problem, not him. Run with that theory. — Christine (@cmdeb) June 5, 2014

@USABillOfRights Does anyone think there may be some psychos in this administration? — bill baumann (@wentworth8022) June 5, 2014

@BFriedmanDC So, you're arguing that the whole platoon was psychotic and he was the 1 sane guy? And you work for the administration? — American Elephant (@AmericnElephant) June 5, 2014

All in the jackass family:

Nail on the head here. Watch for it:

When the White House claims Brandon Friedman is just a low-level employee in the Cincinnati office, understand that they green-lighted this. — jon gabriel (@exjon) June 5, 2014

This isn't just some guy named Brandon Friedman calling our troops psychopaths. He's an Obama Admin. official. He's following orders. — jon gabriel (@exjon) June 5, 2014

Heh:

Obama is going to be outraged when he sees in the paper what Brandon Friedman said on Twitter. #tcot #p2 — Comrade Scott (@comradescott) June 5, 2014

Going nuclear on their critics…and having it blow up in their faces again. They just can’t seem to help themselves.

Good point. He didn’t just float it. He planted the seeds.

And as always, there are no coincidences in Chicago-on-the-Potomac.

Check out the scrub job Friedman did on his Twitter bio.
