Donald Trump fired Mark Milley from his role on the National Infrastructure Advisory Council on Tuesday. Milley is a retired army general who served as the most senior uniformed officer at the Pentagon as chair of the joint chiefs of staff under Trump and Joe Biden.
Trump announced the firing in a social media post, after Milley sharply turned against him in the years between his presidencies, ultimately branding him “a total fascist”.
Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote that his administration was also “actively in the process of identifying and removing over a thousand presidential appointees from the previous administration”, in a mass purge in his first 24 hours in office.
TVNL Comment: Thank you for your service, General Milley. We wish you well.
