Hegseth Revokes Security Detail for Former Top General Milley
- Milley also faces review that could lead to a loss in rank
- Biden pardoned Milley, others Trump regards as his enemies
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has revoked the security clearance and security detail authorization for Mark Milley, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a prominent critic of President Donald Trump.
In a statement late Tuesday night, the Defense Department said Hegseth — who was sworn in over the weekend — had also asked the Pentagon’s inspector general “to conduct an inquiry into the facts and circumstances surrounding General Milley’s conduct so that the secretary may determine whether it is appropriate to reopen his military grade review determination.”
