Damn! Another Trump administration official exonerated. What’s going on here?
Haven’t heard anything out of the Left demanding he step down and wonder how he’ll fare at Senate confirmation hearings?
Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan "fully complied with his ethics agreements and his ethical obligations," according to the Pentagon's watchdog review of potentially favoring Boeing, The Washington Post reported.
"While Shanahan did routinely refer to his prior industry experience in meetings, witnesses interpreted it, and told us, that he was doing it to describe his experience and to improve government management of DoD programs, rather than to promote Boeing or its products," the probe concluded, according to the Post.
The investigation exoneration of the former Boeing employee and acting defense secretary opens the door for President Donald Trump to officially nominate Shanahan as the official secretary of defense, replacing the resigned James Mattis.
