Pentagon pulling Gen. Milley's security detail and clearance 'immediately,' may face demotion in retirement

Is a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff even eligible for a security detail?

Yes, a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is typically eligible for a security detail. Such high-ranking military officials often continue to receive protection due to the sensitive information they have access to, national security concerns, and the potential threats they might face because of their past roles. However, the specifics, such as duration and extent of the security detail, can depend on several factors including current threat assessments, legislative provisions, and decisions made by relevant security agencies.

I am tempted to say that taking Milleys portrait off the wall of the Pentagon was petty, but he did take a pardon and I have argued that he probably should be put on a wall and shot for treason, so maybe not.

Pardons are an admission of guilt. No such thing as 'pre-emptive pardons', that is an oxymoron; those aren't going to stand.

@Grok
Milley already called the Chinese and informed them of any sensitive information so there is no longer any need to protect him.
