Trump is preparing unprecedented personnel changes in the Pentagon - media.


The team working during the transitional period under President Trump is making a list of military officials who may be dismissed from their positions. Members of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff may be included in this list. The government is still developing the dismissal plans, so they may change. However, there are opinions that such dismissals are unfounded. It is unclear whether Trump himself will support such an initiative.
According to sources, the new administration will pay special attention to officers with connections to Mark Milley, the former Chairman of Trump's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
In his new book 'War', Bob Woodward quoted a general who called Trump 'a fascist to the core'.
According to the source, all those associated with Milley will be replaced with new candidates. The Joint Chiefs of Staff includes the highest-ranking officers of the U.S. Armed Forces and leaders of various military branches.
The plans for the dismissal of U.S. military leadership became known after a new Secretary of Defense was appointed. Trump's camp is considering the possibility of reducing the Joint Chiefs of Staff due to its bureaucratic nature. The government has a sufficient number of candidates who could fill the vacant positions.
