    Now he’s firing Mattis—a man who has spent a lifetime in public service—by January 1? What did Mattis say no to this time?

    I am pleased to announce that our very talented Deputy Secretary of Defense, Patrick Shanahan, will assume the title of Acting Secretary of Defense starting January 1, 2019. Patrick has a long list of accomplishments while serving as Deputy, & previously Boeing. He will be great!
