From Reuters:
Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin head to Asia this week to reassure allies and partners of U.S. support, the State Department’s top official for East Asia said on Monday, as the November U.S. presidential election casts uncertainty over Washington’s foreign policy. U.S. tensions with China will provide the backdrop to the trip. Blinken is expected to meet his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on the sidelines of regional meetings in Laos, Assistant Secretary of State Daniel Kritenbrink told reporters. Blinken and Austin will hold security talks with U.S. allies Japan and the Philippines.Will Biden ever learn the name of his secretary of defense? Not likely.
Biden is getting heat for not knowing Lloyd Austin's name after four years and calling him "the black man," not for appointing him secretary of defense. If Biden wants to treat him with dignity, he should learn Austin's name.BIDEN: "Look at the heat I'm getting because I, I named a, uh, the, uh, secretary of defense — the black man" 🥴 pic.twitter.com/PJYzDznpIV
