Trump Administration news.

John Ullyot, who resigned last week as chief Pentagon spokesperson, predicted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will also be out of a job soon.

And he warned that even more “bombshell” stories about Hegseth and the Defense Department are about to drop.

“It’s been a month of total chaos at the Pentagon,” Ullyot, who has served in a number of roles within President Donald Trump’s orbit over the years, wrote in an op-ed for Politico. “From leaks of sensitive operational plans to mass firings, the dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president — who deserves better from his senior leadership.”

Hegseth has been under fire after a series of reports that he repeatedly shared highly sensitive information outside of official channels, especially via the Signal messaging app.

Her innovations have revolutionized the internet and created a billion-dollar industry, but sadly, her name remains largely unknown. 🌐💡

This makes no sense at all.
