President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have initiated a purge of top military leaders, including Gen. Charles Q. Brown, raising concerns about the politicization of the military. Critics view this move as unprecedented and fear it undermines military neutrality. Advocates argue that these changes could reform a stagnant Pentagon, focusing on core missions of combat effectiveness. Hegseth calls for a stronger military focus free from the influences of political correctness or social justice issues, which have increasingly entered military discussions, particularly following events like the murder of George Floyd.
