Donald Trump fired the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The claim that Donald Trump fired the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is strongly supported by multiple sources, despite all being labeled as not trusted in this dataset. These sources consistently report that President Trump removed General Charles Q. Brown Jr. from his position as chairman, describing it as an abrupt or decisive action. The reports also mention Trump's nomination of a successor and related Pentagon shake-ups, reinforcing the narrative of an official dismissal. Although the sources are not from traditionally verified or highly reputable outlets, their unanimity and detailed coverage of the event, including statements from political figures and the Pentagon, provide a coherent and credible picture that the firing indeed occurred. No sources contradict the claim, and no evidence suggests the event did not happen.
