Watching the press conference on CNN (for the laughs). They continuously refer to Hegseth as the Defense Secretary and call the department the DOD. Seems they reuse to acknowledge the renaming.

The TDS is real.

Trump did not "rename" the Department of Defense OR the Secretary of Defense. Both designations are statutory.

He issued an EO designating a "secondary" name for each, and he directed his administration to utilize the "secondary" terms exclusively.

That EO is not binding upon anyone outside his administration.
