Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White resigned because of a scandal involving incorrect treatment of the employees, NBC reported.

“I appreciate the opportunity afforded to me by this administration to serve alongside Secretary Mattis, our Service members and all the civilians who support them. It has been my honor and privilege. Stay safe and God bless,” she tweeted.

 

According to the source, Pentagon ethics guidelines say that "a DoD official may not direct or request subordinates to use official time to perform any activities other than official activities.”

White reportedly removed at least four employees who had complained about her conduct.
