I pray that he and others who do harm to America should resign, retire, seek repentance and have quiet, good lives.

Ha.

Heard he tried to keep it secret again but this time there was a trickle down effect of leaks reported in the media.

Why does it hurt when I pee?
Why does it hurt when I pee?
I don’t want no doctor
To stick no needle in me

Why does it hurt when I pee?
I got it from the toilet seat
I got it from the toilet seat
It jumped right up
And grabbed my meat
Got it from the toilet seat

My balls feel like a pair of maracas
My balls feel like a pair of maracas
Oh God, I probably got the
Gono-co-co-coccus!
My balls feel like a pair of maracas
Ai-ee-ai-ee-ahhhh!
Why does it, why does it
Why does it, why does it hurt when I
Pee

I agree. The Lord Jesus Christ asks us to do such. Dear God, please comfort and return speedily to health Lloyd Austin. Through our Lord, Jese Christ. Amen.

Probably has a bladder neck contracture (scarring where the bladder and urethra are sewn back together after the prostate is reconnected).

The politburo..oh wait, I mean the US Senate is full of people that are 70+. They never retire. Diane Feinstein comes to mind.

The guy needs to resign. He is too sick to hold the office.
