Wow! Gaetz tried to out wit Sec. Austin?

A peon with a mouth tells Austin that the military is “woke”. How disgusting, disrespectful and dangerous to our military!

3. Gaetz is a punk

In a heated moment, Austin got into an argument with Rep. Matt Gaetz after the Florida Republican accused the Pentagon of being too focused on "wokeism" and not defense.

Austin charged that Gaetz appeared to be "embarrassed for his country" by questioning the US military's capability, and the two men shouted over one another at several points.

Gaetz charged that the Pentagon "got it wrong" by predicting that Russia would overrun Ukraine within days and that the Taliban would not take control of Afghanistan last year. "You totally blew those calls and maybe we would be better at them if the National Defense University actually worked a little more on strategy and a little less on wokeism," Gaetz said.

"Has it occurred to you that Russia has not overrun Ukraine because of what we've done and what our allies have done?" Austin asked. "Have you ever even thought about that?"

5. Secretary Austin held his own.

He was fully comfortable engaging in a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

10. That gutless wonder thinks he's really something.

Let’s see what he’s made of when they arrest him for his many sexually deviant crimes. He will piss his pants.

13. We are seeing an example in Ukraine of what happens when a military is not "woke".

14. Just once, I would like someone to tell one of these Republicans

who are using their favorite pejorative du jour

"What you call 'woke,' we call 'not being an asshole.' You should try it sometime."
