Biden has selected retired Army general Lloyd Austin as his Defense Secretary nominee. Austin would require a controversial Congressional waiver to lead the Pentagon, as only four of the required seven years have passed since his service. Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY) responds to the nomination. Aired on 12/8/2020.

Rep. Meeks On Biden’s Defense Secretary Nominee, Retired General Lloyd Austin | Ayman Mohyeldin
He is right the time is very dangerous
Joe Biden and communist liberal lunatics will need pardons after the supreme court overturns the election.
sit down loser.
@Willard Brown watch and be amazed loser!!
won’t happen loser
Trump, not Biden, was the one with communist China bank accounts.
Need to make laws against loopholes trump has exposed in the constitution, cut power of the senate ,if any politician caught holding office position in bad faith should be tossed out of office and charged accordingly.
There is a reason why we put a civilian in place as Defense Secretary and you Mr. Meeks remind us exactly why that is so. There should be no waiver.
Stimulus, yes.
Get out of jail card for Corporations, no.
Delusional
Biden 💜 Jonestown 1978
*Lloyd Austin should not side with Jim Crow Joe the Segregationist!*
This is going south way to fast….they are in a hurry for some unmentioned reason. 🤔😠
👀👀
C’mon man, +13% for the big guy, -13% for the other guy. You know the …………….. thing.
Gee, if the rules don’t work for you, JUST CHANGE THEM. NO, follow them.
Apparently diversity is just two colors. I thought rainbows had more colors.
Private Citizens don’t pick Defense Secretaries. Have some more Kool Aid.
president biden get use to it loser
Baha…. I like it when he say’s nobody is questioning the nominee’s qualifications. Not hardly.
Fact check” former vice president Biden has been denied president-elect status by congress.
Have a Merry Christmas.
Republicans in the House and Senate, will cling to this charade until the EC votes and that’s forwarded to Congress for ratification, which VP Pence will be on hand to officiate. Everything between now and then from Republicans falls into the “whateva…..” category. No biggie.
BREAKING: Youtube just announced to remove “widespread fraud or errors” videos, including this one! BTW, Youtube also declared that Xi Jinping won the election ! Everything is just the beginning ……
His best qualification is that he is black!
Why do you have to censor anyone questioning the main stream media election narrative? Orwell much?
Why no coverage of Texas and 16 other states suing PA, GA, MI and WI over election irregularities and violating the constitution?
They are afraid he’s going to clean house. Right now, there are inexperience folk in the Pentagon.
