CNN's Clapper: Austin's Secret Hospitalization Isn't a Big Deal, He's 'an Introvert' and His Security Knew Where He Was

On Monday's broadcast of CNN's "The Source," CNN National Security Analyst and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper argued that the outcry over Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin being hospitalized in secret is "making a mountain out of a molehill" because "it's not as though he was spirited away to some undisclosed location" and the commander of Walter Reed and the Secretary's protective detail knew where he was, and if something really severe had happened, "the lines of communication would have lit up pretty vigorously." Clapper also stated that Austin is introverted.
