Brumar,
The transition team for President-elect Trump is working on an executive order that would speed up the firing of top military brass if signed, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
That seems to jibe with Trump's new "loyalty" pick for Secretary of Defense:

Trump picks Fox News host and Army veteran Pete Hegseth to serve as secretary of defense (CNN)

By the way, Pete Hegseth reached the rank of major before ending his military career. Appointing him to Secretary of Defense, a position that would have considerable control over an $800B defense budget, would be like promoting a mid-level manager at a Fortune 500 company to CEO.

But hey, Trump is the businessman, and we've been assured that he would run the federal government like his runs his businesses, right?
