Chairman, Joint Chiefs Of Staff -- February 21, 2025

Of course, The New York Times is aghast.

Isn't it normal for all presidents to choose their own Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff?

See Joint Chiefs of Staff. All appointed by Biden.

Requires confirmation by the US Senate.

Current Chairman:

  • appointed by Biden after Trump 1.0's Chairman

Current chairman:

  • born in 1962 but exact date of birth not known? how does this happen; what shows up in his official documents?
  • 41 years active duty service; mandatory retirement, 30 years except for general officers
  • 63 years old; young by many standards, but 30-year officer would retire in mid-50s.
  • I'm not sure why he didn't offer his resignation when Trump was elected? That should practically be standard.
  • every entry regarding current chairman focuses on is ethnic background. At some point, it gets old, it gets tedious.
