After the victory of the former American president in the presidential election in the United States, the news of Donald Trump and his loyalists are intertwined on the world scene. Elon Musk, who criticized Donald Trump in the past, found his way into the White House, while now there are reports that top positions in the Pentagon including the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and others are going to be furloughed because Donald With Trump assuming the presidency, several officers including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will be dismissed.
In the United States, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the head of the armed forces.
According to the foreign news agency “Reuters”, two independent sources confirmed that a list has been prepared, including the name of the chairman of the Pentagon’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, who will be dismissed.
It should be noted that Trump will take office as the President of the United States on November 5, and a source in his new administration confirmed that the news of a major change in the Pentagon has caused a stir throughout the organization and that the list being prepared is small. There is also the possibility of change.
Earlier in his election campaign, Donald Trump has given a threatening message to those military journals that criticized the withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan in 2021.
Another source said the incoming administration would likely focus on U.S. military officers linked to Trump’s former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley.
Mark Milley was quoted in Bob Woodward’s book “War,” published last month, in which Trump was described as “fundamentally fascist” and Trump’s allies considered him to be with the former president. He was targeted for infidelity.
Another source said that any person or official who received a position from Mark Milley will be fired. According to sources, the list of people who have been supported by Mark Milley is long.
It should be noted that the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the highest rank in the US military and includes the heads of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Space Force.
The plans to fire senior leaders of the US armed forces were revealed a day before the presidential election when Trump chose Pat Hegseth as his defense secretary.
Pat Hegseth has been a Fox News commentator and veteran who has expressed his intention to purge the Pentagon of undesirables.

How might Elon Musk’s alignment with Trump influence military innovation and technology advancements?
**News Editor: Good afternoon, and welcome to our special segment on the implications of Donald Trump’s recent presidential victory. Today, we’re speaking with Dr. Emily Robinson, a political analyst and expert on military affairs. Dr. Robinson, thank you for joining us.**
**Dr. Robinson:** Thank you for having me.
**News Editor:** Let’s dive right in. With Trump’s return to the presidency, there are reports of significant changes looming in the Pentagon. Can you elaborate on the potential impact of dismissing high-ranking military officials, including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff?
**Dr. Robinson:** Certainly. The dismissal of top military officials typically sends waves of uncertainty through the armed forces. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs plays a critical role in military strategy and advising the President on defense matters. If Trump is moving towards replacing key figures in the military hierarchy, it could disrupt established protocols and relationships both domestically and internationally.
**News Editor:** Interesting. We also hear about Elon Musk’s newfound alignment with Trump. How does this relationship factor into the broader political landscape, particularly in terms of military innovation and technology?
**Dr. Robinson:** Musk’s influence, especially with his advancements in technology and space exploration, could be a double-edged sword. On one hand, his vision for merging military and civilian technologies could boost national defense capabilities. On the other hand, this relationship could lead to concerns over prioritizing certain economic interests over traditional military values, especially if decisions are influenced more by personal ties rather than expertise.
**News Editor:** There are also worries about the potential furloughs in the armed forces. What could this mean for the personnel and the military’s operational readiness?
**Dr. Robinson:** Furloughs can significantly lower morale and disrupt the operational readiness of the military. Personnel won’t just feel the immediate financial impact; it could also affect their trust in leadership, especially if they perceive these changes as politically motivated. Maintaining a well-prepared military requires stability and confidence in its leadership, which could be at risk if there’s significant turnover.
**News Editor:** Given the historical context of Trump’s presidency and his relationship with the military, how do you foresee his administration navigating these changes?
**Dr. Robinson:** Trump’s presidency in the past saw a complex relationship with the military, marking some points of both collaboration and contention. This administration would likely seek to assert its vision, but it may face pushback from within the military establishment itself. How that dynamic plays out could define not just military policy but the broader paradigm in national security for the foreseeable future.
