In a recent opinion piece, former Pentagon spokesperson John Ullyot expressed serious concerns about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's longevity in his role. Citing a tumultuous month for the Pentagon, highlighted by various public affairs crises, Ullyot suggested that President Trump may soon dismiss Hegseth, despite his previous support for him. Ullyot acknowledged the chaos as a significant problem for the administration and indicated that even firm supporters must recognize the current challenges Hegseth faces.
President Donald Trump has a strong record of holding his top officials to account. Given that, it's hard to see Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth remaining in his role for much longer.
The last month has been a full-blown meltdown at the Pentagon - and it's becoming a real problem for the administration.
I value his friendship and am grateful for his giving me the opportunity to serve.
Even strong backers of the secretary like me must admit: the situation has turned into a crisis for the administration.
