Gen. Jack Keane reacts to Biden's decision to terminate Trump appointees from military boards: 'Simply wrong'
Fox News
Ret. Gen. Jack Keane is speaking out about President Biden's request for Trump-appointed members of military academies’ advisory boards to submit their resignations on Wednesday.
"He terminated us because we were appointed by President Trump," Keane, a retired four-star general and chairman of the Institute for the Study of War who served on the West Point advisory board, told Fox News of Biden's requests. "There was no assessment of who we are and what our contributions have been and what our background is. … I think it's petty, very partisan and simply wrong." The former Army chief of staff was appointed to the West Point board in 2019 by former President Trump. He described the task as being on a university trustee board and "overseeing the functions of the academy and reporting back to the president as such."More Related News
