In the past three months, eight senior officers in the US military have resigned. These resignations stem from a single reason: conflict with the Donald Trump administration. Trump’s administration is targeting officers who either don’t fit their standards or aren’t listening to them. These resignations have plunged the US military into crisis.
Amid the operation in Venezuela, another senior US military officer has resigned. According to US media, Navy Admiral Alvin Holsey, head of Southern Command, has resigned. Holsey’s tenure was until 2027, but he decided to step down due to tensions with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Holsey was responsible for monitoring ships on the Venezuelan border. Holsey did not want to attack Venezuela, but the US government is preparing to launch a major operation there
Eight top commanders resign in three months
The resignations of senior military officers have continued since the arrival of Donald Trump’s government. Eight top commander-level officials have resigned in the past three months. These include Joint Chiefs General Charles “CQ” Brown Jr., NSA General Tim Hogg, Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Coast Guard Commandant Admiral Linda Fagan, and Defense Innovation Unit chief Doug Beck.
Interestingly, all the officers’ resignations were due to conflict with the government. Recently, US President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Peter Hegseth issued a statement at an army event, saying that those who cannot fight, those who are not prepared for war, should step away from the army. While some resignations may have been due to conflict, most were pressured to install Trump’s veterans. Donald Trump served as President from 2016 to 2020.
Why is this a loss for the US government?
For the first time, the US military is experiencing a lack of experience. Many top commanders have left their posts and new recruits have been recruited to replace them. These veteran commanders lack the experience of the previous commanders. Experience is crucial in difficult times, especially for a superpower like the US. Furthermore, the arrival of new personnel will further increase government influence in the army. This could also hamper the future Maga campaign.

Major blow to Trump, court halts dismissal of federal employees in the US
A US federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from firing federal employees during the shutdown. Judge Susan Yvonne Illston of the US District Court for the Northern District of California issued a temporary order on Wednesday, stating that the Trump administration’s actions are illegal.
The judge declared the Donald Trump administration’s decision illegal
The order came after the administration sent termination notices to more than 4,000 federal employees. Two major unions representing government employees had filed a petition to stop the layoffs.
Illston said the administration had taken advantage of the reduction in government spending and government operations. The judge temporarily halted not only the administration’s recently announced layoffs, but also any similar layoffs in the future.
