Although Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin failed to inform the White House about his recent hospitalization, President Joe Biden (D) is not considering firing him, Politico reported Monday.
The outlet cited a group of senior administration officials. If Austin were to issue a resignation Biden would refuse it, a person among them said. “Austin’s going nowhere,” one official told Politico. The report noted Republicans have been calling for Biden to dismiss the defense secretary. (Photo) During a recent interview, Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) told Fox News, “Apparently the National Security Council didn’t know it, the White House didn’t know it, congress didn’t know it.”

YEP, he's always been nowhere, and not getting any better. An affirmative action loser without the competence to do the job.

Can we really be sure the Resident knows who Austin is?

Are we to believe that Walter Reed (or Bethesda, or whatever they're calling it these days) performed ELECTIVE surgery on a patient - any patient - on New Year's Day? Lloyd may have done wrong by his boss but he's still part of the club, and Carlin is again proven right: "It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club."

Where could Biden find a sock puppet like Austin? He should embarrass even blacks.

Why should Biden consider sacking him. It's not Biden's decision.

What is the punishment for going AWOL? Isn’t this exactly what Austin did?

I don't believe the story that the Whitehouse didn't know what was going on. Austin told someone, probably several people. I have to imagine he told his staff he was taking a personal business day and not to book anything on that day.
Imagine Austin telling Biden he was taking a day off. Biden wouldn't remember 5 minutes after being informed nor would he tell anyone. Doubt that happened, however. Others had to know.
Btw, this is also the Whitehouse where someone lost their cocaine, and the Secret Service could not identify who it belonged to. That was another story that was unbelievable.
Maybe Austin just wanted his privacy which is believable, but why didn't the Whitehouse just say that rather than saying they weren't informed.
The Biden Bunch is hiding something. Again.

Austin probably told him that he told him -- and he forgot.

The ONLY way that Austin would be fired is if he fooled everyone doing the hiring and turned out to be a Competent Patriot.
If that happened, he would be gone in a 'New York Minute'.
But Austin, like every other member of this Clown Car administration, is an incompetent, so he "ain't goin' nowhere".
The only thing we can bank on is comment #12.

Biden is not about to fire Austin, a Black man, from such a high level position in his crew during an election year. The question that should be asked of Austin is why he did what he did in not notifying the President that he was going in the hospital?

Austin is an incompetent, Black, democrat, leftist stooge. Of course, he's not going anywhere.
