On Tuesday's Fox Business Network's “Kudlow,” Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Mississippi), ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said he doesn't think Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will resign. But we shouldn't expect him to resign. , the internal investigations by the White House and the Pentagon are nonsense because they are conducted by “the same people” who “actually had a hand in this.” He called for a hearing on the matter by the Senate Armed Services Committee and that any investigation be handled by an independent inspector general.
Host Larry Kudlow asked, “Senator, do you want him to resign for good?” What do you think about this?
“I don't think he's going to resign and I think we can get through this,” Wicker responded. I'm glad you at least know what's wrong with the Director, but I hope you've learned your lesson here. What they want to do now is conduct a 30-day internal study by the same people who actually participated in this study. If there is an investigation, there will need to be military hearings on this and it will need to be conducted by an external inspector general. ”
