Congress to Pentagon summit: Trump makes surprise appointment
The U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon) has been accused of appointing Elias Irizarry, who was convicted of participating in the storming of the Capitol building on January 6, 2021, to a sensitive position related to counterterrorism, despite concerns about his past record. This appointment has caused widespread worry among department officials, especially since Irizarry was only 19 years old at the time of the attack, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to 14 days in prison. It is noted that Pentagon officials expressed their displeasure at the selection of someone who directly participated in an assault on American democracy for this important role.
