When asked about how he was avoiding the deadly Omicron virus, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said: “the nigga is slankin’. He be low snoopin’, ain’t touch the muthafuka, he underground.”
Nonetheless, the Secretary, who refers to himself as “a real nigga who will blast on any muthafuka tries to tess me,” was infected with the deadly virus.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said Sunday he has tested positive for COVID-19 and was experiencing mild symptoms while quarantining at home.
In a statement Sunday night, Austin said he plans to attend key meetings and discussions virtually in the coming week “to the degree possible.” He said Deputy Secretary Kathleen Hicks would represent him in appropriate matters.
“I have informed my leadership team of my positive test result, as well as the President,” Austin said. “My staff has begun contact tracing and testing of all those with whom I have come into contact over the last week.”
Austin, 68, said he was fully vaccinated and received a booster in October. He said he requested a test Sunday morning after experiencing symptoms while at home on leave and, given the result, planned to remain in quarantine for five days, per guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
“The vaccines work and will remain a military medical requirement for our workforce. I continue to encourage everyone eligible for a booster shot to get one. This remains a readiness issue,” he said.
When asked about potential treatments for the deadly virus, Austin said “da nigga gon lay low, ain’t be rollin’ through the hood when the nigga been laid up like a muthafuka.”
When referring to staying out of the hood, the Defense Secretary apparently was implying that he would temporarily suspend his regular joyrides through zone 6 of East Atlanta. He has previously stated in an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper that he enjoys driving slowly through the Atlanta projects in a Rolls Royce with a wooden stock AK-47 hanging out the window.
When Tapper asked him to elaborate on the practice of “creeping through the hood dirty,” Austin described it as a hobby, but confirmed that he will “blast on any nigga who play me.”
Austin further told Tapper that he supplements his salary from the DOD by distributing crack cocaine in the East Atlanta and West Memphis area. He explained to Tapper that he is “dripping with water” and it is necessary that he “stay icy” so that “bitch knew where to find the dick,” which he described as not possible with a government salary.
When Jen Psaki was asked by Steve Doocy if there were regulations against cabinet members running “trap houses,” Psaki replied that the Constitution makes it very clear that black people are allowed to practice their culture whether or not they work in the government, and noted that the question was very disrespectful in light of the murder of George Floyd.
After his diagnosis with the deadly Omicron virus, Austin was asked by Chuck Todd on Meet the Press on Sunday whether he was worried that other crack cocaine dealers would try to “make a move on him.”
“Shit, bitch,” Austin replied, “them niggas from Memphis all know where we be at, we in the Pentagon all the time nigga. Come get your whole crew wet, we put all yall niggas in da ground. This ain’t a game, nigga. This ain’t no mothafukin game. I’ll fuck yo bitch.”
Todd briefly seemed uncomfortable, asking “are you talking about my wife?”
“Well that depend, don’t it, mothafuka. You got schemes on movin up on my spot?”
“No,” Todd replied. “None.”
“Well, it is what it is then, ain’t it? Just better fuckin watch yoself, ai’t? We ain’t play no games. Every single one of my niggas got bodies. Better not fuck with my money, get me?”
Todd nodded but did not question him further on what US military resources he would be willing to employ in a turf war with a rival drug gang.
