He is the SecDef for god’s sake.
I am a low level manager In corporate America. If I disappeared for a day, people would be losing their minds.
Props for the El Rushbo line.Don't know if he was getting the scrotasnip or the addadictomy (in Austin's case I suspect the latter) but it's surprising he had to go to the ICU.
When they perform those operations on 8~14 year old kids (under the illusion of "gender affirming care") they say it's just a minor outpatient procedure.
But his buddy Xi wants to know who will tip the PLA off about US military plans if Austin is out of the loopWell, at least we don’t have mean tweets anymore.
Occam’s Razor. This was my first inclination when I heard of the story. At first guess I would say the whole thing is damage control and the spin doctors know that he (and the administration) was so vocal about the vaxx and now they can’t be seen as losing the narrative.Nobody is guessing the obvious? Right off the Wiki...
Part of Austin's primary agenda as Secretary of Defense was the Department of Defense's plan—in coordination with Anthony Fauci, the chief medical advisor to the president—to confront the COVID-19 pandemic within the department. Austin's first step was to urge service members to get vaccinated, especially after the revelation that almost one-third of active-duty service members had turned down the opportunity to get administered the vaccine.
In order to tout the safety of the coronavirus vaccine, Austin took the vaccine himself and also emphasized that taking the coronavirus vaccine will prevent disease among the troops, particularly those who were deployed overseas.[74]
See post #26.I'm confused. Was he getting his wee-wee cut off or getting one attached?
It was probably organ rejection that sent him to the ER.Don't know if he was getting the scrotasnip or the addadictomy (in Austin's case I suspect the latter) but it's surprising he had to go to the ICU.

He’s been asking Jill what the brown streak is in his briefs…I doubt this is the only thing Biden hasn’t noticed in the past week

Footnote:
As a company commander, about 6 year into my career, if I'd had a soldier AWOL for so much as a day and didn't know about it, I'd have been summarily relieved of command -- for Dereliction of Duty. A POTUS not knowing where the Hell his major cabinet officials are is Dereliction of Duty. The SecDef is #6 in the line of succession.

He's retired . . . no longer active duty. Nevertheless, you are correct that he should.He is a 4 star for pete's sake, you would think he would have known how to handle incidents like this.
