President Donald Trump on Friday terminated Joint Chiefs of Workers Gen. CQ Brown Jr., the nation’s highest-ranking navy officer, from his place.
Brown Jr.’s dismissal comes amid a wave of administration shakeups as a part of the president’s campaign to reshape the federal authorities.
“I need to thank Basic Charles ‘CQ’ Brown for his over 40 years of service to our nation, together with as our present Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Workers. He’s a fantastic gentleman and an excellent chief, and I want an important future for him and his household,” Trump wrote in a submit on Fact Social.
Brown has held the submit since Oct. 2023, after he was nominated by then-President Joe Biden.
Trump mentioned he plans to appoint Air Pressure Gen. Lt. Gen. Dan “Razin” Caine to switch Brown, calling him “an achieved pilot, nationwide safety knowledgeable, profitable entrepreneur, and a ‘warfighter’ with vital interagency and particular operations expertise.”
