What day or days was the previous elective surgery? Maybe they forgot to inform everyone he was taking off work for that, too.

Kind of sounds like all those times Obama used the excuse he didn’t know something or had, only the morning of any press appearance, found out about it, and therefore the press should stop asking questions until they forget about it.

He went in for complications on New Years. Necessary rather than elective.
When the first surgery, the elective surgery occurred, hasn’t been reported. Sometime before he went in on the 1st for the complications.

Would definitely hamper our response time if under a sudden nuclear attack.

I read elsewhere that Deputy DefSec Kathleen Hicks, who presumably took on Austin’s authority, did so while on vacation in Puerto Rico...MIC madness!

They probably didn't get around to informing her until after the press already reported it, lol. A retroactive passing of the baton.

“A source familiar with the situation told CNN that not even Joe Biden knew.”

What difference would that make?

I was thinking his last spinal support implants have failed already.

The real President, Barack Obama, was certainly notified.

I guess his body is rejecting the brain implant.

I actually thought of this myself. I had a close family memeber who this happened to a few years ago. I thought she was going to die and I wanted to come down on the careless doctor with the full force of the law but nothing happened other than his resignation.

Why is it such a big secret in the first place? So he is in the hospital; big deal. The idiots in the gooberment always act like everything is a state secret.

Corruption and laziness are soulmates, so it does make sense that the “P”TB need to scramble and obfuscate so that their “look busy” cover isn’t blown.

It’s not much of a disguise I know, but still.

Had to think about that for a minute. But.... Yeah, you’re right.

Actually, you were right about having to rethink what I wrote. I meant to say:

When most of the military is "NOT-woke"... (that would have made more sense from the beginning)
