      That’s how USA Today learned about it.

    Kasper, who worked in the first Trump administration, had previously been chief of staff to Rep. Duncan Hunter, Jr. Hunter had been convicted of misusing campaign funds and was later pardoned by Trump.

    The problem isn’t the staff, it’s having someone completely unfit in the SecDef role. 🤷‍♂️
