Trump pulls NASA nomination of Elon Musk's ally Jared Isaacman
US President Donald Trump said he is withdrawing the nomination of Elon Musk's ally and billionaire Jared Isaacman to lead NASA after a "thorough review" of his "prior associations". "I'll soon announce a new nominee who will be mission aligned, and put America First in space," he added. Isaacman was due next week for a confirmation vote before the Senate.
