Retired Gen. Mark Milley's personal security detail and security clearance is being pulled by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, multiple senior administration officials tell Fox News.

The Pentagon has revoked the security detail and clearance for retired general Mark Milley, a former top US military commander who has been critical of President Donald Trump. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth directed the move as one of his first acts in office, asking officials to investigate Gen Milley's "conduct" and review his military grade.
