Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will announce he is "immediately pulling" retired Gen. Mark Milley's personal security detail and security clearance, multiple senior administration officials tell Fox News.

The secretary is also directing the new acting Inspector General to conduct a review board to determine if enough evidence exists for Gen. Milley to be stripped of a star in retirement based on his actions to "undermine the chain of command" during President Donald Trump's first term, officials say.

The Pentagon will also be removing a second portrait of Gen. Milley inside the Pentagon. This one is from the Army's Marshall Corridor on the third floor honoring his service as chief-of-staff of the Army. Fox is told the removal of this second portrait will take place as soon as tonight. This means there will be no more portraits of Gen. Milley inside the Pentagon.

Milley= He disrespected the uniform and his position. His actions reeked of cowardice. His disgraceful behavior warrants conduct unbecoming an officer. —Retired with 27 years Army.

Yeah, reduce him to 3rd lieutenant and send his fat @$$ to the Retraining Brigade at Fort Riley, Kansas. Fat punk is not worthy of the uniform he wore, with total dishonor in my humble opinion.

The next administration will have no use for Milley. They only help those they can use. The Romans had no use for Judas.

Should be busted far more than just a star

[WoofDog123]

this is probably the plan.

[Tijeras_Slim]

I was hoping to see his portrait in the post office.

[SharpRightTurn]

Hip, hip, hooray. Milley is despicable.

You normally would retire at the last rank you held for a minimum of two years.

[Uncle Miltie]

See tagline.

Oh no removing the portrait. That’ll show him and set a firm example to others. Please, bust his ass down to private and dishonest discharge

[WildHighlander57]

Busted to buck private would be better.

Did you buy that someone a beer (better yet, a case of beer?)?

[laplata]

Yeah, reduce him to 3rd lieutenant

><

You mean 2nd Lt.?

[combat_boots]

Not at that time.

[ETCM]

Since he so loyally served China, let them pay for his security detail and pension.

[Eleutheria5]

He’ll have a cushy job in the defense industry.

With some of these bigwigs, one has to wonder exactly whom they’re being protected FROM.
