Lots of RumInt flying around that Austin was secretly in Kiev on Jan 3, to go over details of a new drone offensive against Russia with Zaluzhny when the Russians hit the Command Bunker.
It would explain why the #2 was suddenly and quietly put in charge on Jan 2. If he was travelling East.
The cover story that he is in the hospital for “Secret” surgery and didn’t tell the WH for several days (violation of the law) is EXTREMELY suspicious, with no proof of life yet.
He has done secret trips like this before to Ukraine, only announcing them when he was safely back in Poland.
Politically, Austin getting wounded or even killed in Ukraine would have HUGE implications and blowback for Biden and the Obamunists if this turns out to be true.
🚨Update: Did US War Chief Lloyd Austin get killed in Ukraine, and the West is trying to make it look like he passed away at home? Several Russian air strikes across Ukraine have targeted NATO command centers in Western Ukraine!! Rumors are flying now! pic.twitter.com/VFJJy8KqRP

This is a HUGE deal, regardless of your political affiliation, particularly with the ongoing wars in Ukraine/Russia and Israel/Gaza alongside the global fallout from those conflicts.
In my opinion, this merits a resignation by Sec. Def. Austin or removal by POTUS. t.co/Y8U0LJNGhS
