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, such as the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard, etc., 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 the 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, as describing Trump as “fundamentally fascist” and Trump’s allies considering 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 position 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 could Elon Musk’s involvement influence the future of military technology and defense strategies?
**Interview with Political Analyst Dr. Sarah Thompson on the Recent Developments Following Donald Trump’s Presidential Victory**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Dr. Thompson. There’s been a lot of buzz since Donald Trump’s victory in the recent presidential election. Can you briefly explain the significance of these changes in leadership, particularly in the Pentagon?
**Dr. Thompson:** Absolutely, and thank you for having me. Trump’s return to the presidency is significant because it’s directly impacting the military hierarchy in the U.S. The reports of potential furloughs and dismissals among top officials, particularly in the Joint Chiefs of Staff, indicate a shift back to a more Trump-aligned military strategy. This could affect not only domestic military operations but also international relations.
**Editor:** You mentioned the alignment with Trump’s strategy. Can you elaborate on what this might mean for U.S. military engagements around the world?
**Dr. Thompson:** Certainly. When Trump was president before, we saw a more unilateral approach to military engagements, often prioritizing immediate national interests over established alliances. If he continues this strategy, we might see shifts in how the U.S. approaches NATO, the Middle East, and relationships with adversaries. Moreover, the dismissal of experienced military leadership could lead to instability within those operations.
**Editor:** Interesting point. There’s also been talk about Elon Musk’s involvement with the administration. How does this fit into the broader picture?
**Dr. Thompson:** Musk’s entry into the White House indicates a potential merging of technology and military strategy. His companies, particularly SpaceX and Tesla, have significant defense contracts and advancements in technology. With Musk’s influence, we might see a stronger emphasis on military innovation and possibly more privatization in defense efforts, which can be both beneficial and concerning.
**Editor:** Lastly, what do you think the public should keep an eye on in the coming weeks regarding these developments?
**Dr. Thompson:** I would recommend paying close attention to the composition of Trump’s cabinet and military leadership. The names on that list and their backgrounds could give us significant insight into the administration’s direction. Additionally, public responses from military officials and international allies will be crucial in gauging how these changes will impact global stability.
**Editor:** Thank you, Dr. Thompson, for your insights. It’s certainly a rapidly evolving situation that we will continue to monitor closely.
**Dr. Thompson:** Thank you for having me. It’s important to stay informed as these events unfold.
