The Pentagon’s former top spokesman announced his resignation Wednesday after being sidelined last month for his role in the removal of a Department of Defense website celebrating MLB trailblazer Jackie Robinson. John Ullyot, who had been running the Pentagon’s press shop on an acting basis, told Politico that his decision to leave the DoD came after a meeting with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth failed to result in a job offer to his liking. “I made clear to Secretary [Pete] Hegseth before the inauguration that I was not interested in being number two to anyone in public affairs,” Ullyot told the outlet, noting that from the outset, he only offered to assist the Pentagon for two months on an acting basis.
