As we think we couldn’t look stupider than we do, the White House figured out a way to accomplish the task. After the media started covering for the AWOL Secretary of Defense by saying he’s a private guy, there will be an investigation, and we should move on, they passed a critical rule that Biden employees weren’t aware of – call in sick when you’re a no show due to illness.

They don’t need an investigation – let people know when you’re out, especially when you’re in charge of ongoing wars.
