A former top aide to Pete Hegseth has gotten a new intelligence job after he was forced out last year while the defense secretary accused “disgruntled” employees of leaking to the press.
Dan Caldwell, who was unceremoniously marched out of the Pentagon last April and publicly chastised by Hegseth amid an investigation into leaks, has now been hired as an adviser at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, The New York Times reported.
Caldwell’s new role suggests that the investigation against him and two other top Pentagon officials—Colin Carroll and Darin Selnick—has concluded and that Caldwell is in the clear.
