Pentagon Shake-Up Sparks Grudge Claims Over Top Army General
Sen. Tim Kaine accuses Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of letting a personal grudge drive staffing decisions after Hegseth ousted Gen. Christopher Donahue, head of U.S. Army Europe and Africa, who plans to retire as part of a sweeping Pentagon purge; Kaine and others question whether merit or loyalty drove the moves, while Donahue’s exit is framed as a routine transition with Maj. Gen. Christopher Norrie stepping in.
