“#Biden seems to forget defense secretary’s name<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin\u2019s name at a White House event \u2014 calling the Pentagon chief \u201cthe guy who runs that outfit over there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden was announcing the nomination of two female general<\/a>s to lead US military combatant commands.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I want to thank the sec \u2014 the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my \u2014 the guy who runs that outfit over there,\u201d Biden said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to make sure we thank the secretary for all he\u2019s done to try to implement what we just talked about. And for recommending these two women for promotion.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, \u201cSecretary Austin,\u201d while app<\/a>earing to read from a teleprompter.<\/p>\n

Biden, 78, has previously struggled with the names of his cabinet secretary selections. In December, he mispronounced the name of his nominee for the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra, before correcting himself with a different mispronunciation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Biden on Monday nominated Air Force Gen. Jacqueline Van Ovost to lead the US Transportation Command and Army Lt. Gen. Laura Richardson to lead the US Southern Command. Their nominations must be confirmed by the Senate.<\/p>\n

Biden announced their selections in celebration of International Women\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

They would be the second and third women to hold such high posts, following retired Air Force Gen. Lori Robinson, who headed US Northern Command from 2016-2018.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
