President Donald Trump said Tuesday he did not fire acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan – after making the dramatic announcement he was pulling the nomination following revelations of years-old domestic violence claims of Shanahan and his former wife. Trump announced Shanahan's departure early Tuesday afternoon after a series of reports on details of the domestic violence situation, but said the decision was Shanahan's.
