Charlie Summers, the top Pentagon spokesperson, seemed less than positive that Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson is quitting.
From a DefenseOne reporter:
The top Pentagon spox, Charlie Summers, is briefing the press minutes after reports hit that AF Secretary Heather Wilson has resigned. We’re not getting a lot here: “I think it’s true,” he says, adding that he just read the reports before he walked in. “Next question please.”

The Washington Post is reporting that Wilson is leaving to become president of the University of Texas at El Paso. She reportedly gave President Donald Trump her letter of resignation and is quitting at the end of May.
Another one bites the dirt.
Trump is very successfully dismantling the government and Putin is laughing his ass off…
Just heard Bill Shine just resigned as communication director
According to this item - there was speculation that she might be named the next Sec of Defense.
re. Bill Shine’s resignation … with an interesting comment:
wonder what that means - totally involved in 2020 campaign. A variation of the Lara Bush job offer/silence buying program?
Fleeing rats; meet sinking ship…
I just had the bejesus scared out of me!
