Members of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team are drawing up a list of military officers to be fired, potentially to include the Joint Chiefs of Staff, two sources said, in what would be an unprecedented shakeup at the Pentagon.
The planning for the firings is at an early stage after Trump’s Nov. 5 election victory and could change as Trump’s administration takes shape, said the sources, who are familiar with the Trump transition and requested anonymity to speak candidly about the plans.
One of the sources questioned the feasibility of a mass firing at the Pentagon. It was also unclear if Trump himself would endorse the plan, although in the past he has railed extensively against defense leaders who have criticized him. Trump has also spoken during the campaign of firing “woke” generals and those responsible for the troubled 2021 pullout from Afghanistan.

President-Elect Trump Calls For Nationwide Concealed Carry Recognition
President-elect Donald Trump has announced his intention to push for a national concealed carry reciprocity law, which would make concealed carry permits valid across state lines. The proposal is being celebrated by gun rights advocates as a step toward strengthening Second Amendment protections.
Donald Trump Jr. shared the news on Instagram, writing, “Boom! My father just announced concealed carry reciprocity. The Second Amendment will stay and remain protected.” The announcement has already gained significant attention among supporters of expanded gun rights.
Trump has long supported the idea of national reciprocity. During his 2015 presidential campaign, he called it a matter of fairness and common sense, noting that a driver’s license is recognized in all 50 states. He argued that a concealed carry permit, tied to the constitutional right to self-defense, should be treated similarly.
