Putin. Jinping. Ali Khamenei. Zelenskey. Kim Jong Un. Take your pick. We have lots of enemies.

[Paladin2]

Did he get a brain transplant?

[Jyotishi]

New name?

[Yogafist]

They did, but his body is rejecting it.

[Delta 21]

Did he get his pecker chopped off? I thot those types didn’t mind attention.

[for-q-clinton]

He elected to get the blood clots removed

[frank ballenger]

Austin: Will I be able to play the cello when I finish rehab?

Doctor: Oh, I don’t see why not.

Austin: Funny, because I never played the cello before.

((No need to thank me for that ancient joke.))

[Leaning Right]

> citing patient privacy <

Eh, no. As a taxpayer, I’m paying for that procedure. Plus, Austin is a very important government official. I have a right to know what’s going on here.

The Deep State’s response: Shut up, peasant. The mainstream media will tell you everything we want you to know. Now go follow the example of our Dear Leader. Have a pudding cup, then go to bed.

[KobraKai]

HAHAHA

[Getready]

Recovering from failed prevaricationectomy and incompetentectomy. God save his soul so he will avoid the eternal destruction he is facing.

[DariusBane]

I would probably guess Offensive lardman.

[frank ballenger]

They keep Austin’s medical problem and status secret because an enemy like China, Russia, North Korea, Iran and Hamas could get it in their heads that Biden and his associates are leaving America wide open to attack and being outmaneuvered in the theaters of war.

As happens on a normal day.

“ Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III has been in the hospital since Monday, after complications from a recent elective medical procedure”

Too easy, the jokes write themselves

[OHPatriot]

I heard he had a cut-a-dick-off-of-me operation. Didn’t know he was getting his own pu$$y too. Hope the infection goes to his brain!

[DariusBane]

A disgusting fat body. Morally and physically unfit for the job. Sec Defense doesn’t have to look like an E4 in a combat line unit but he also should lead by example. I.e. don’t be a fat f&%@

[maddog55]

I’m guessing breathing problems from having his head up Biden’s ass.

[Getready]

There ain’t no 70 year old 300 lb defensive tackles in the NFL. In fact, there are very few healthy 300 lb. 70 year olds at all. My guess is a stent in the heart or a kidney stone which was removed but he got septic, or a carotid artery stent or “rotor rooter”.

[PGR88]

He chose the affirmative-action doctor.

[MinorityRepublican]

My guess is a stent in the heart.

Seems likely. Reminds me of James Avery (actor on Fresh Prince). He died of a procedure on his heart. Similar build.
