Lawmakers reminding troops to follow the law should not trigger FBI interviews. Full stop.
The FBI has requested interviews with six Democrats regarding their video, which reminds troops to follow the Constitution.
The Trump administration saw the now-infamous video as treasonous, called for them to be hanged, and is weighing court-martialing Sen. Mark Kelly. trib.al/ELXKBpd

A powerful message from six Democrats reminded the military of a fundamental truth: illegal orders must be refused. Trump’s over-the-top reaction only highlighted the danger he poses, while the response from the 'Seditious Six' hints at a more strategic approach to Democratic communications.

Pete Hegseth is right: Mark Kelly shouldn't be a senator.
He should take Hegseth's job and be SECDEF.
I'll be on MSNOW at 4pm to talk more about it.

Trump is the most corrupt president in US history, and the openness of his corruption is an essential feature of it. It's particularly bad that this comes as Trump is using state power to punish Sen Mark Kelly for correctly warning against breaking illegal orders.

Mark Kelly knows exactly what political violence looks like. The fact that the Pentagon is investigating him for urging troops to refuse illegal orders, even as Trump calls for political enemies to be punished, shows how dangerous this administration has become.
Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

With important peace talks underway in Europe, the Trump admin sent the Army Secretary to represent the Pentagon since they can t trust unserious Hegseth not to embarrass them with his daily dipshittery. So they kept him home to threaten Mark Kelly with a court martial.
