Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is considering firing or removing generals and senior officers as early as this week, according to multiple U.S. and congressional officials.

A list has been circulated on Capitol Hill that contains generals and senior officers who could be fired or removed, the officials said. NBC News first reported the list Wednesday afternoon. Hegseth, days before President Donald Trump nominated him to lead the Defense Department, said in November that “woke” officials needed to be uprooted from the DOD. “First of all, you’ve got to fire the chairman of the Joint Chiefs,” Hegseth said in an appearance on the “Shawn Ryan Show.”
