Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher praised President Donald Trump for championing his case after the Pentagon announced that Secretary of the Navy Richard Spencer was leaving his post under pressure from Secretary of Defense Mark Esper.

Esper accused Spencer of trying to make a private deal with the White House that would allow Gallagher to retire with his SEAL Trident pin.
