Trump Offers Deputy Defense Secretary Role to Jewish Billionaire Steve Feinberg, Despite No Military Experience
Dec 3, 2024, 05:32 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has offered the position of deputy secretary of defense to Jewish billionaire investor Steve Feinberg, according to sources cited by the Washington Post. Feinberg, known for his investments in defense companies with Pentagon contracts, would assume the No. 2 role at the Department of Defense if he accepts the offer. His potential appointment has raised questions due to his lack of military experience, although he has investments in private military contractors and companies involved in military technology. The decision to offer Feinberg the job could influence the management of America's military strategy and the allocation of the Department of Defense's budget.
