House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi lashed out at former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn today over a series of tweets from a parody Twitter account.

“While I accept full responsibility for my actions, I feel it is unfair that I have been made the sole scapegoat for what happened,” the fictitious Flynn wrote.

“But if a scapegoat is what’s needed for this Administration to continue to take this grat nation forward, I am proud to do my duty.”

The New York Times, which published the tweets and attributed them to the actual Michael Flynn, later acknowledged they were fake.

“Because of an editing error, an earlier version quoted three posts from an unverified Twitter account,” the Times wrote, according to The Hill.

But that didn’t stop Pelosi from slamming Flynn and explaining the apparent definition of a “scapegoat.”

“I didn’t know, until I heard from our colleague, that the tweet of Gen. Flynn today was ‘scapegoat.’

“‘Scapegoat.’ Do you know what a scapegoat is? That means in a community where people want to absolve themselves of guilt, they get a goat and they heap all of the ills on the goat and then they run the goat out of town,” Pelosi said.

“So the inference to be drawn from his statement is other people have blame that should be shared in all of this.

“The good news is that Gen. Flynn is gone because he was totally inappropriate,” Pelosi said.
