Members of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team are considering a sweeping shakeup at the Pentagon, including the possible dismissal of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Early discussions suggest a focus on removing military officers associated with Mark Milley, Trump’s former chairman, who has been criticized by Trump allies.

The incoming administration aims to address perceived loyalty concerns and bureaucratic overreach within the U.S. military, signaling a significant shift in leadership and policy direction as Trump prepares to take office.
