FYI an accurate timeline should use the correct name for the government agency: Department of Justice. Hesgeth is the Secretary of Defense.

thanks for the report, will check.
hmm, it says on wiki: "The United States secretary of defense (SecDef), secondarily titled the secretary of war (SecWar)"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Secretary_of_Def...
"Secondarily titled" is not a thing in our constitution, so it is correct to use "Defense".
Also I just noticed in my pedantry I typed Department of Justice. Embarrassing.
This is such a weird hill to die on. I'm pretty sure none of the cabinet positions are described by the constitution, so I'm not sure citing it here has any relevance at all?
