The White House has considered possible replacements for Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg, raising the prospect of another leadership shakeup at the Pentagon, Reuters reports. The review began by June and included consultations with senior senators over whether potential successors could win confirmation. No decision had been made as of late August. The White House rejected the report, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Feinberg has his full support and “isn’t going anywhere.”
