President Trump is preparing to fire Veterans Affairs (VA) Secretary David Shulkin, according to a report from The Associated Press.
A source told the outlet that there is a 50-50 chance the president will oust Shulkin within the next two days.
Another source told the AP that the White House was considering around six replacements for Shulkin, including the former CEO of the conservative organization Concerned Veterans for America and "Fox and Friends" contributor Pete Hegeseth, retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg and former president and CEO of the Cleveland Clinic Toby Cosgrove.
The Hill has reached out to the White House and the VA for comment.
