Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White has stepped down from her post, joining a long list of dismissals and resignations at the Trump administration, Trend reported citing Press TV.
White made the announcement on Twitter Monday afternoon, in the wake of the resignation of her boss, Defense Secretary James Mattis.
“I appreciate the opportunity afforded to me by this administration to serve alongside Secretary Mattis, our Service members and all the civilians who support them. It has been my honor and privilege,” she said. “Stay safe and God bless.”
The US president pushed James Mattis out of his post after disagreement over Trump's decision to end the US military presence in Syria and scale it back in Afghanistan, making Trump further isolated at helm.
Before leaving Pentagon, Mattis ordered withdrawal of an estimated 2,200 US forces from Syria.
Mattis submitted his letter of resignation after he failed to convince the president that the US military presence in Syria is associated with maintaining critical alliances and partnerships.
The long list of dismissals and resignations in the Trump administration reveals the chaotic play of power inside the White House.
White was herself being investigated over directing staff to run personal errands for her and later retaliating against them.
