US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to rename the Department of Defense the “Department of War,” reverting to a title it held until after World War Two when officials sought to emphasise the Pentagon’s role in preventing conflict. Trump signed the executive order at a ceremony in the Oval Office on Friday. “We won the First World War, we won the Second World War. We won everything before that and in between, and then we decided to go woke and we changed the name to Department of Defense. So, we’re going to Department of War,” Trump told reporters.
