Hegseth Fires Top Army Officer
The firing of the Army's highest-ranking officer has sent shockwaves through the military establishment during a time of active conflict.
Reports suggest that Hegseth felt 'threatened' by Gen. George's influence and is seeking to install loyalists in key leadership positions.
This reshuffle comes as the administration aims to bring a 'warrior culture' back to the military, a move that has met with both support and anxiety among service members.
Critics warn that such high-level instability could compromise national security as the war in Iran intensifies.
