Pentagon pulls security clearance of former Joint Chiefs of Staff Milley
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth revoked the security clearance and detail for General Mark Milley, marking an unprecedented move against the former Joint Chiefs Chairman according to Pentagon spokesman John Ullyot.
- Hegseth ordered an Inspector General investigation into Milley's conduct to determine if a review of his rank is necessary, but did not specify the reasons for this investigation.
- Former President Donald Trump has accused Milley of treason and of mishandling the withdrawal from Afghanistan, while Milley maintains that his actions were coordinated with Defense Secretaries and other agencies.
- President Joe Biden issued a blanket pardon for Milley before leaving office, which protects him from prosecution but does not prevent an Inspector General investigation from potentially affecting his rank.
