The Trump management just lately pulled Jared Isaacman’s nomination to be NASA administrator, alluding that he was once now not in “complete alignment” with the president’s schedule.
“The Administrator of NASA will help lead humanity into space and execute President [Donald] Trump’s bold mission of planting the American flag on the planet Mars,” White House Assistant Press Secretary Liz Huston advised Fox News Digital on Saturday.
Huston added it’s “essential” that the following chief of NASA “is in complete alignment” with President Trump’s “America First” schedule.
A alternative will probably be introduced immediately by way of Trump “soon,” in keeping with the White House.
