"This Is Just Disarray": Pentagon Insiders Sound Alarm as Hegseth Purges Officers With Impeccable Records

Insiders describe the Pentagon as in "disarray" and "an atmosphere of anxiety and mistrust" as Defense Secretary Hegseth has fired or sidelined dozens of senior officers — the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the Army Chief of Staff, the Navy Secretary, the Chief of Naval Operations, the Cyber Command chief, the NATO military rep, and more. All during an active war. A current official: "He's just really uncomfortable with anyone who could potentially be outshining him."

Hegseth Personally Struck Black and Female Officers from Promotion List

Hegseth personally removed 2 Black men and 2 women from the Army's brigadier general promotion list after the Army Secretary repeatedly refused. His chief of staff said "Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events."
