Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. CQ Brown, Jr., who President Trump had threatened to fire once in power, on Monday said he plans to remain the country’s highest-ranking military

Former President Joe Biden's pre-emptive pardon for retired Gen. Mark Milley, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will give the retired military official a shield against any action that President Donald Trump might take against him amid their highly public feud.

It's unclear who'll take over at the Pentagon and the military services when the top leaders all step down Monday as President-elect Donald Trump is sworn into office.

A day that began with the outgoing president’s pardon of lawmakers and his own family ended with the incoming president’s pardon of supporters who attacked the U.S.

It's hard to tell just where retired General Mark Milley's portrait once hung in the Pentagon's prestigious E-ring hallway, alongside all of the former chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

A major police union that endorsed President Donald Trump broke its silence late Tuesday evening on his pardons for those convicted for their actions related to the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol -- including people who violently assaulted law enforcement officers -- but tempered that criticism by also taking a swipe at former President Joe Biden for his eleventh-hour pardons.

Gen. Mark Milley, the now-retired former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, commented on the pardon he received in Biden's final hours in office.

At noon today, Donald Trump took the presidential oath for a second time, capping a historic political comeback to the White House. As he did on the campaign trail, Trump painted a dark picture of America and took aim at President Joe Biden's leadership as his predecessor sat just steps away.

President Donald Trump removed four holdover high-profile presidential appointees early Tuesday, using his Truth Social platform to deliver the message.

The reëlected President reprised his “American Carnage” address, with repeated jabs at America’s “decline” under Joe Biden, but his central theme, as always, was himself.
