The Trump administration has removed a senior Defense Department spokesman, John Ullyot, after he faced criticism for defending the purge of government-produced content recognizing minority contributions in the military. Ullyot, who had previously worked on communications roles throughout President Trump’s first term, was known for his aggressive defense of anti-DEI policies and clashed with colleagues and journalists. The move follows a brief and tumultuous tenure marked by controversy over his stance on issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
