2019-03-20 | Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan Faces Probe | Time
'He has the dubious distinction of being the longest serving “Acting Defense Secretary” in the nation’s history: 78 days and counting. '
' He stepped up from the No. 2 spot to take the lead role after James Mattis resigned as Defense Secretary on Dec. 31. '
'The Department of Defense Office of Inspector General confirmed it has launched an investigation into whether Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan has violated any ethics rules by promoting his former employer Boeing while serving in the Trump Administration. '
'In January, Shanahan told reporters that claims of favoritism were “just noise” and he was ”biased toward performance; I am biased toward giving the taxpayer their money’s worth.”The allegations, however, take on increased importance now that Shanahan, 56, is under serious consideration to become Defense Secretary. '
'Last week, he told Congress that he welcomed any such investigation into his actions in office. '
