U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin has been hospitalized since the first day of 2024, and while Pentagon officials have not said when he will be released, they continue to avoid saying why he went to the hospital in the first place.

Austin was admitted to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center last Monday, for what Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder described as complications from an elective medical procedure.

On Sunday, Ryder told Fox News that Austin had an elective medical procedure at Walter Reed on Dec. 22, 2023. Austin was on leave at the time of the procedure, and he returned home the next day.

How about poisoned by the CDC?

They are now pushing jab #8 on seniors! Eight MRNA shots in 3 years.
Srysly?

Imagine what 2-7 jabs plus recurring bouts of covid infection are doing to human immune systems, our cells, organs and vascular system flooded with spike proteins causing clots and inflammation.

Vaxx took Colin Powell, too

Doesn’t make any difference. This whole administration consists of non-functioning figureheads. Any one of them can go away without any impact on how the true power behind the curtain runs the show.

This would not surprise me at all. Mainly because the whole story around Austin has been like someone is hiding something.

Will they do a body double or will they say Austin died of sepsis or something? I figure they will go for the he died from complications story.

or.....he is still alive and they are just hiding his whereabouts?

There are (at least) 2 problems here. The illness itself and the DOD's refusal to keep the WH, Congress, and the country informed. WTH is going on.

Having a SecDef in the hospital isn't a big problem. There is of course a plan for that kind of event.

The really strange thing is that it's been kept secret.

On the radio this morning, they said the Deputy Secretary of Defense didn't know he was in the hospital because she was away on vacation. They also said his press secretary was home sick and didn't know. This is not some low level civil servant, this is the Secretary of Defense - and no one missed him during this period? I don't think this was anything diabolical, I think it's just another example of the total state of disarray that seems to be the norm with this administration. The man is in ICU and nobody thinks it's odd that no one has heard from him, or anyone around him?

“nobody thinks it’s odd that no one has heard from him, or anyone around him?”

Doesn’t the SecDef rate some sort of security detail? 🤔

What’s all this controversy over? I mean, it’s not like he didn’t tell China he was going into the hospital.

So far, I have seen no one asking whether he told Xi his status before the White House. I think it is a good question, give his history.

Imagine if this were Trump’s Defense Sec’y.

The jackals in the lying media would be going for (more) blood.

With these tools? Crickets.

The Impeachment hearings would already be starting, if it were Trump.
