麥格雷戈是海灣戰爭早期坦克戰的領導者，[2]也是1999年北約轟炸南斯拉夫的首席策劃者。[3]他在1997年出版的《打破密集陣》一書中主張在美國陸軍內部進行徹底改革。[4]
2004 年離開軍隊後，麥格雷戈在政治上變得更加活躍。2020年，唐納德·特朗普總統提名他擔任美國駐德國大使，但未通過美國參議院。2020年11月11日，五角大樓發言人宣布，麥格雷戈已被聘為代理國防部長的高級顧問[5]，他擔任該職位不到三個月。特朗普還任命他為美國軍事學院董事會成員，但該任命於2021年被總統喬·拜登終止。[6]麥格雷戈曾為福克斯新聞撰稿，並出現在俄羅斯國家資助的RT頻道上。[7]他的評論因貶低烏克蘭、移民和難民而聞名。
