CNN's Keilar: GOP Wanted First Black Defense Secretary 'To Be the Face' of Responding to CRT Questions, Not White Trump Appointee

During an interview with Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA) on Thursday's broadcast of CNN's "New Day," co-host Brianna Keilar said that Republicans wanted Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin "who is the first black Defense Secretary to be the face of the response to questions about Critical Race Theory" instead of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark Milley, who is white and was appointed by former President Donald Trump.
