Pete Hegseth pushes top general out of the Pentagon

Hegseth and them are all going to come up with their bullshit excuses (the most likely being Afghanistan) but again this all just boils down to the fact that Donahue has a career that Hegseth would be feel threatened by so he forces him out

US Army Gen CD Donahue the most extraordinary combat leader in a generation. Brilliant. Fearless. Integrity. Inspirational leader. Fired by Sec Def Hegseth. Supported Ukraine defense against Putin criminal invasion.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has forced Gen. Christopher T. Donahue, the top U.S. Army commander in Europe, to retire, a blow to those who saw him as a key leader of the military’s push to adapt to a future battlefield dominated by drones and artificial intelligence, defense officials said.

One of America's most-admired general officers, CD Donahue, is the latest Army leader to be forced out at the Pentagon. Hegseth was RIFed as an O4 after his supervisors started noticing a serious substance abuse problem. Every time he encounters an officer who makes him feel inferior, he fires him.

Gen. Christopher Donahue,is the latest in a line of nearly 2 dozen top military leaders to either retire or depart their jobs early under the leadership of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Hegseth is putting forth an effort to thin the ranks of the military’s top brass. apnews.com/article/trum...

Pete Hegseth continues his purge of the military’s senior ranks, as General Chris “C. D.” Donahue, widely seen as one of the Army’s rising stars, will step down, Nancy A. Youssef and Missy Ryan report.

Hegseth has fired a lot of Generals. The reaction to this one had been very different. Donahue was deeply loved, trusted and respected. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

If Donahue is out then Grynkewich isn't safe either. Before Hegseth tries to get an underqualified America hack placed as SACEUR the European NATO states need to take a serious look at whether they need to be willing to europeanise the position
