Hegseth could fire some senior generals and admirals soon: CNN

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is reportedly considering firing several generals and admirals, aiming to eliminate those involved in DEI initiatives during the Biden administration.
The list of potential dismissals includes high-profile officers like Gen. CQ Brown and Admiral Lisa Franchetti, which could result in no female four-star officers remaining.
Hegseth has presented the list to Republican lawmakers, indicating a possible Pentagon shake-up that may include promotions for other senior positions.
Military planners are expected to announce updated funding proposals soon as part of ongoing discussions about reshaping defense structures.
