🚨🇺🇸 The United States had no Secretary of Defense for 3 days and nobody noticed.
From the DoD IG's investigation into Sec Def Austin's hospitalization:
Austin told his Personal Security Officer (PSO) "we're not notifying anybody", and also request the ambulance not to run Code 3.
He told his PSO he expected to be released within a couple of hours, but told the PSO to cancel his meetings for the next 48 hours. The PSO and Junior Military Assistant were the only ones that knew.
Secretary of Defense Hicks was on vacation in Puerto Rico and had no idea she was now Acting Sec Def. Austin's own Chief of Staff was home, sick with the flu herself. Hicks didn't find out she was in charge until the afternoon of Jan 4th. The White House wasn't told until then either.
That's 72 hours without a properly functioning National Command Authority.
USD(P) Sasha Baker was actually in charge of the Department during that period without knowing it.

Ukrainian President Zelensky: The United States, Slovakia, Hungary, Germany. They do not want to see us in NATO. It's an open conversation and there are no secrets.

RT @APHClarkson: Americans have been able to take the security of the US Eastern Seaboard for granted since 1945. Building an alliance in Europe willing to protect US core strategic interests was never just an act of American philanthropy

I say this as an Atlanticist, (with a risk of flak?):
I hope the Trump team is aware of how much latent anti Americanism there is in Europe, that they risk awakening with their not so well thought through antics.
Awakening this force won't improve anyone's…

RT @poohitan: Ну і тиждень, трясця. Дуже щільні польоти, дешифрування, комунікації, нема коли поїсти, коли виспатись, перемерз як чорт, захворів.
Зате мінус 6 танків, брем, трохи вантажівок, і ще там дещо. Знищуємо не ми, тому і слава не нам, але ми це все знаходимо і віддаємо правильним людям

@luvyall22: This is embarrassing and shouldn't be an issue at all but it will probably be resolved now and not impact our relationship with the US.

RT @Jeff21461: Sorry to burst the bubble, but the Ukrainian MOD press release stats that "The parties analyzed the possibilities of integrating domestic air defense systems into the NASAMS system".
Nothing has been decided or contracted. Additionally, I assume by "domestic," they mean the inventory of inherited Soviet systems, as Ukraine has not yet developed a domestic air defence system.
