The White House is struggling to find qualified people willing to work as high-ranking officials in Pete Hegseth's Department of Defense, according to a new report.NBC News detailed on Monday that Vice President JD Vance and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles are actively seeking to help with the issue, which began in April after Hegseth suspended two senior aides he had appointed himself, accusing them of leaking classified information. Shortly after he removed his chief of staff and a senior aide resigned, saying later that the office was "total chaos."
