Trump admin fires Navy admiral at NATO targeted by conservative group
Fox News
The Trump administration has sacked a senior NATO official who was recommended by a conservative research group to be fired as part of a broader effort to purge of wokeness from the Pentagon.
Chatfield reportedly got a call from Adm. Christopher Grady, the acting chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and was told the administration wanted to go in a different direction with the job, according to the Associated Press, citing officials. The officials said they believe the decision was made last week by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, but it was unclear whether he received any direction from President Donald Trump. Reuters was first to report on her termination. Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.
