Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday revoked the security detail and security clearance for Gen. Mark Milley, according to Pentagon spokesman John Ullyot, an unprecedented move against the former top US general who became a frequent target of President Donald Trump.

Pentagon Secretary Pete Hegseth will “immediately” pull retired Gen. Mark Milley’s security detail and revoke his security clearance, according to a new Fox News report. Those plans — the latest act of political retribution against those deemed enemies of President Donald Trump — will include an inspector general inquiry into Milley’s work.

The Pentagon has asked its inspector general to review the record and behavior of General Mark A. Milley, the retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who stood up to President Trump in his first term.
