Donald Trump Appoints Adam Telle as Acting US Army Secretary After Driscoll Resignation
President Donald Trump appointed Adam Telle as the acting US Army Secretary following Dan Driscoll's resignation amid reported tensions with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Telle, currently Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, has over 20 years of experience working with Republican senators and served as Trump's chief liaison to the Senate. Both Trump and Hegseth praised Telle as a respected patriot. Driscoll did not publicly explain his departure, which comes as the US Army faces operational challenges in the Middle East.
