A CNN panel discussion went off the rails on Wednesday after a guest who had served in President Joe Biden’s administration claimed that then-Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had “never compromised American lives.”
Dan Koh, who was the White House Deputy Cabinet Secretary during the Biden administration, began the exchange by suggesting that military leadership in President Donald Trump’s administration was putting people at risk and “no one was facing consequences.”
“That’s when people check out and realize that their democracy may not be what they thought it was,” Koh continued.

This is one of the most BRUTAL exchanges I’ve ever seen on CNN.
