On Tuesday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight,” Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) responded to the hospitalization of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin that the White House was not informed of by pointing out that Secretary Austin himself accused Tuberville of endangering military readiness by blocking group votes on military promotions before Austin went “AWOL” by undergoing surgery and being hospitalized without informing President Joe Biden.

Imagine ANY other soldier doing this. They would be AWOL and in deep shit.
Exactly
“..Imagine ANY other soldier doing this. They would be AWOL and in deep shit...”
Yep..without a doubt.
But this arsehole is a “protected” affirmative action, low-IQ plant.
Can’t touch those...it would be......racccccist!!! /s
Just ask Claudine Gay about her plagiarism and she will tell you that you are racist for asking about her cheating.
Black privilege rules.
More important, he's #2 on the nuclear chain. Not of approval, but if the President gives the order to launch the Secretary of Defense confirms it is the President giving the order and passes it down the chain of command. For days a US response to a launch against of would have been delayed for who knows how long until they found him, or used an alternate identity verification method which I hope is in place. Any delay in reaction could have been costly
And surprise, surprise, the Houthis’s launched 18 suicide drones this morning in the Red Sea shipping lanes..
And 3 anti-ship missiles.
DON’t worry BIDEN was having his oatmeal in the situation room!
You seem to be apologizing for the guy.
No one knowing where he was is implausible. These folks are like royalty in that they have an army of aides and sycophants around them 24/7.
There are rumors that Austin was traveling secretly to Ukraine, and was injured in the big Russian missile strike on Ukraine January 2 - the same day he disappeared.
Only rumors.
After a prostatectomy, he should be up and around in 2-3 weeks. Let’s see what he looks like next week.
Secret Service had to know. Not their job to speak out. I’d have to think someone at DOD knew as well, and that there’s a procedure for his absence. But his top aides only seemed to know the tasks they were to take over, not his location. I’m sure they could have found out, which takes time. But this administration, who knows.
Apparently the POS is well enough to travel to Davos to attend the big World Enslavement Conference’s annual meeting where they all fly in and lick each other’s arses for a few days.
Imagine Rumsfeld doing something like this!!!
Begging the question...which Party has the most intelligence, integrity, common sense and Love of Country?

Yeah, but how’d that work out for you? Negotiations with nobody. Classic republican smarmy weakness.
One of the best things to come out of Alabama in quite a while.
