Bret Baier On Interviewing Secretary Of Defense Lloyd Austin: I Thought He Was Having A Stroke

Bret Baier joined Brian Kilmeade to discuss his interview with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin at the Reagan National Defense Forum. When asked about Austin hesitating when asked if he has any regrets about the withdrawal from Afghanistan, Bret said he thought Austin was having a stroke for a second. Bret was thankful it was in person because if it was digital over a satellite feed he would have thought he lost the feed with Austin. Bret explained that there was not a lot of time to ask follow-up questions on leaving billions of dollars of equipment on the ground and the Afghan allies and the Americans left behind because they were wrapping him up to finish the interview.
