White House Orders Cabinet Heads to Inform the "President" If They Cannot Perform Their Duties

Let me save everyone the time: None of them is capable of performing their duties. Pete Buttigieg fucked off to play mommy for months and months and then have a secret vacay in Portugal and no one even noticed he was gone.

Twitchy:

White House orders cabinet secretaries to notify if unable to perform duties amid Lloyd Austin Scandal https://t.co/t8ghmwRgVL -- The Messenger (@TheMessenger) January 9, 2024

The White House said it is reviewing Cabinet protocols for delegating authority after it was revealed that defense secretary Lloyd Austin suffered from prostate cancer and had kept even President Biden in the dark over his condition https://t.co/oxjuJns6oL pic.twitter.com/3l3rX5Lynp
-- Reuters (@Reuters) January 10, 2024


A "president" who even has to give this "order" (or strong recommendation) is obviously not really the president.

I wonder if Austin informed the people really running the government -- Obama's staffers.


Andycanuck collected these tweets, noting that Lloyd Austin didn't just keep his emergency hospitalization a secret -- he also kept his prostate cancer a secret.

But he's a very private man, so.

BREAKING: Defense Sec. Lloyd Austin Was Treated for Prostate Cancer During Secret Hospital Stay

Breaking911 @Breaking911

REPORTER: "It seems, frankly, like you were deceived by telling everyone that it was an elective medical procedure. [...] It doesn't elective if he had prostate cancer and this was treating it."

PENTAGON PRESS SEC: "We could have done a better job last week." [i.e. Major General Patrick Ryder]

Here's a big question:

Breaking911 @Breaking911


DOOCY: "If the administration is gonna go to such great lengths to keep secrets about the Defense Secretary's health, how can anybody be certain that the administration would not go to the same lengths to keep secret problems with President Biden's health?"

KIRBY: "...It's not good..."


Politico spins on behalf of their Democrat partners, again pushing the "new weapon" bullshit:
As Austin controversy widens, Republicans find a new weapon against Biden

Yes, deserting your post without leave and without notifying your superiors is a "new weapon" that was just introduced into the military by Republicans two minutes ago.

Republicans seeking to attack President Joe Biden and his national security record headed into an election year just found more ammunition: his Pentagon chief.

GOP members on Capitol Hill are incensed that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was hospitalized for several days before the White House was informed. Now, with the 2024 presidential campaign ramping up and primary voting just weeks away, Republicans are using the episode to target Biden's pressure points, painting the 81-year-old former Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair as unserious about national security and dangerously unaware of what's happening right under his nose.

The bombardment, which is largely playing out in conservative media, comes as foreign policy -- with global crises raging -- takes on a larger role than usual in electoral politics.

...

In the four days between the announcements of Austin's hospitalization and the details of his condition, Republicans have hammered the Pentagon chief and Biden. Several prominent Republicans have already called for Austin to lose his job for keeping the White House in the dark for several days about his Jan. 1 hospitalization, and for Congress to hold hearings on the episode.

You can't fire a man for being A Private Man!!!

Watch the spin Politico puts on Biden's obvious dementia:

...

With more Americans concerned about Biden's age and cognitive health than Trump's -- despite the former president being just three years younger than the current commander in chief -- Cotton took a jab there, too. Biden, the oldest sitting president in American history, would be 82 at the time of his second inauguration and 86 at the end of the term.

"It raises some troubling questions: If this administration would conceal a mere elective minor surgery for a Cabinet secretary, what might they be concealing about Joe Biden's health," Cotton said.

Biden's plagiarizing again:


Of course they're both quoting the same source. But Biden is swiping Hillary's decision to quote it.

And of course he's doing this to racialize the election.
