Milley’s Security Detail Revoked – Is His Life In Danger?

General Mark Milley

(VitalNews.org) – Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is taking swift action against retired Gen. Mark Milley by revoking his security detail and clearance.

This move comes as a response to Milley’s undermining of the chain of command during President Donald Trump’s first term.

Newly confirmed Secretary Hegseth wasted no time addressing concerns about Milley’s past actions.

The Defense secretary is “immediately pulling” Milley’s security detail and clearance, a decisive move that sends a clear message about the expectations for military leadership.

The Pentagon is also taking steps to remove Milley’s portraits from the building, including the Army’s Marshall Corridor.

This symbolic gesture has been described as the administration’s commitment to restoring trust and integrity within the military’s highest ranks.

Hegseth is directing the Defense Department’s Inspector General to conduct a review board.

This investigation will determine whether Milley should be stripped of a star in his retirement for his actions during Trump’s first term.

Milley’s controversial tenure as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under both President Trump and Joe Biden has been marked by criticism from conservatives.

He faced backlash for contacting Chinese officials after the 2020 election, a move that many viewed as overstepping his authority and potentially undermining national security.

Adding fuel to the fire, Milley has been openly critical of Trump, reportedly calling him “fascist to the core” and “the most dangerous person to this country.”

If true, these comments raise serious questions about Milley’s ability to serve objectively as the nation’s top military officer.

While some argue that Milley still faces threats from Iran due to his involvement in the 2020 drone strike on Gen. Qasem Soleimani, the Trump administration is taking a firm stance.

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated, “And there’s nothing stopping these individuals that you mentioned from obtaining private security.”

This decisive action by the Trump administration sends a clear message: those who prioritize personal political views over their sworn duty will be held accountable.
