The Pentagon sent its message to the White House in the aftermath of an incident in which officials at the White House military office reportedly directed the USS John S. McCain to be kept out of sight while Trump delivered a speech in Japan, according to Reuters. Although the order was not followed after senior officials at the Navy learned about it and pushed back, the incident has raised concerns about whether Trump is improperly politicizing the military.
In a statement, Lieutenant Colonel Joe Buccino said that "[Acting] Secretary [of Defense Patrick] Shanahan directed his chief of staff to speak with the White House military office and reaffirm his mandate that the Department of Defense will not be politicized."
He added, "The chief of staff reported that he did reinforce this message."

How many positions in leadership are now filled with "acting" leaders, not to count positions not even filled?
And how can we have a governing party that allows that to happen?
Surely NOT filling those positions and establishing a working government is yet another broken oath of office on the part of IQ45 - supported by McTurtle!
