Looks like our man is getting a new job.
Retired Marine Gen. James Mattis recently backed out of a speaking engagement at a conference in Washington, D.C., amid speculation he could be appointed Defense secretary by President-elect Donald Trump
.
Mattis was listed as a confirmed speaker, according to an original agenda posted to the website for Jamestown Foundation, the host of its Tenth Annual Terrorism Conference taking place on Dec. 14.
However, Mattis informed the Foundation last week he could no longer speak at the conference, according to a source. A Foundation employee confirmed on Monday that there had been changes over the Thanksgiving break and Mattis is no longer on the agenda.

Glad to officially have him onboard. A true American and patriot

He is the least controversial of the four top contenders, and would be a good choice.
But I will wait for official announcement to believe it.
