The SECDEF is a Twitter link?

Somehow I doubt that.

I don't think a Twitter link can hold office.

Or maybe was there something else you meant to post?

it has a video

“Defense Secretary Austin looks completely stunned when a reporter asks “It sounds like you’re saying this depends on diplomacy with the Taliban. That’s it.”

General Milley interrupts, noting that the State Department has sent messages urging people to go to the airport.”

It is kind of a gotta see it to get the impact. It ain’t good and they didn’t have any useful information or exude confidence.

Deer in the headlights look at the question. We're being ruled by children.

Obviously IF the Taliban doesn’t guarantee immediate safe passage, a force should be sent in.

But these types always assume the legitimacy of any enemy of America. Explanation is white rage or something.

China has to be very emboldened when they see videos like this—the US looks like easy pickings.....

Body language is “what was said”.

The Secretary of Defense looked like he was afraid of his own shadow...long silent pause...looking around for someone to bail him out....
