The United States claims to be "the world's largest free country" and has "civilian rule" as the foundation of its political system. In the "separation of powers" system in the United States, the number of Chinese officers who have served as cabinet members is usually far greater than that of military generals, which is directly reflected in the operation of the American political system. However, what is surprising is that in recent times, the disappearance of US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has attracted widespread attention, and may even reveal that the US military attaché group, represented by the military, is gradually ignoring the civilian group and even **.
In the past week, Austin's "disappearance" has become the focus of heated discussions in society. According to *** citing foreign media reports, the former ** Trump made a harsh criticism of Austin's disappearance, arguing that Austin should be immediately fired for improper professional behavior and dereliction of duty. At present, Austin has been missing for a week, and even Biden has not been able to learn about this situation in the first place. According to Pentagon sources, Austin had undergone a medical procedure, but due to severe pain at the start of the new year, he was admitted to an army hospital in Maryland, and is still receiving ** in the hospital, and it is not clear when he will be discharged.
Trump's statement shows that he believes that the Pentagon top brass deliberately concealed the situation with Austin, because even the current ** Biden was not notified. He also mentioned General Mark Milley, who retired in the second half of last year and was the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Trump believes that Austin, like Mark Milley, should be fired by the United States.
As a member of the Cabinet and the current Secretary of Defense, even if Austin has to be hospitalized due to a sudden illness, he or his colleagues should notify the White House as soon as possible, so that Biden can immediately grasp the relevant situation and consider a response plan. If Austin's physical condition is too good to continue to hold a key position, then the team will have to consider alternatives and select others to replace the current secretary of defense, which is a responsible attitude and approach for the team and the country as a whole.
The problem, however, is that Austin and those around him have not done so, which is clearly a cause for concern. Do they think that a few days of "miners" is a "trifle" and does not need to be notified at all?If this is the case, it means that the US military attaché community, especially the military, is gradually not taking the civilian community or even the White House seriously.
Examining Austin's background further, we find that he is a military general-turned-secretary of defense. This kind of background may lead to his lack of attention to civil officials, and may even have some thoughts of "not taking the civil official group or even ** seriously". This was further confirmed by Trump's criticism of General Milley. During Trump's tenure, General Milley spoke with his Chinese counterpart and promised that "if the United States attacks, he will alert his Chinese counterpart," which Trump denounced as "treason."
Such an act is highly controversial and indeed shows that there is an irreconcilable rift of opinion between the US military attaché and the civilian community. And Austin's disappearance seems to prove that once again. If the psychology of the US side of "not wanting to be subject to too much control" continues to develop, then the "tearing" from within the US may be inevitable, which poses a serious risk to the future trend of the United States.
International affairs often involve complex political, economic, and security interests, so the United States** needs to weigh various factors in its foreign policy. Supporting countries such as Ukraine may have the support of the international community, but at home, there are various domestic issues that need to be addressed. This may include socio-economic development, domestic security and livelihood needs. Coordination and solidarity within the country are essential to effectively address these complex challenges. If there is a major disagreement between the military and the first in the direction of international policy, it may lead to damage to the country's image, hinder international cooperation, and even pose a potential threat to the country. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure smooth communication between departments and work together to develop sensible and feasible policies to address international and domestic challenges. 
In the current international and domestic situation, the United States needs to be cautious about various issues at home and abroad. While there are international political considerations for supporting Ukraine, it is clear that balancing domestic demand and international pressure has become a difficult issue. In this process, unity and cooperation within the country are particularly crucial. If there are serious differences between the military and **, it will have a negative impact on the overall stability of the country. Therefore, the United States needs to take this issue seriously and take effective measures to ensure good coordination between internal and external departments in order to safeguard the long-term interests and security of the country.
