The Pentagon announced Sunday evening that Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin transferred power to Deputy Secretary Kathleen Hicks hours after being hospitalized Sunday afternoon with suspected bladder issues. The Pentagon had initially said Austin was retaining the powers of SecDef in an earlier statement.
Austin was taken to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland on Sunday by his security detail.
Austin is suffering complications from surgery for prostate cancer that put him in the hospital for several weeks starting in late December. Austin kept his illness and hospitalization secret from Joe Biden, much of his staff and the public, prompting calls for his resignation. When Austin returned to the Pentagon in late January he had a noticeable limp.
Commentary:
Guess the prostate surgery was not successful, or there is much more to the illness that is not being said.
IMO, it is not his prostate, people aren't so secretive about something so trivial and common in today's world
Sorry for the Austin's medical problems, but if he can't do his job at this critical time, then he should resign and be replaced with someone healthy !
