2:59Now PlayingHegseth moves to censure Sen. Kelly over 'seditious' military orders video
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on Jan. 5 that he has moved to formally censure U.S. Senator Mark Kelly, and that a so-called "Retirement Grade Determination proceeding" will be started against Sen. Kelly.
If the process goes forward, Sen. Kelly could lose his rank as a retired Navy Captain, and see his military pension reduced.
A video posted on social media last November by Kelly and five other members of Congress told members of the military, "You can refuse illegal orders."
"You can refuse illegal orders," Sen. Elissa Slotkin said into the camera. "No one has to carry out orders that violate the law."
It ends with a military phrase saying, "don't give up the ship."
After the video was released, President Donald Trump threatened the lawmakers with jail time, saying the video was "seditious behavior, punishable by death."
"It’s called SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL. Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL. Their words cannot be allowed to stand - We won’t have a Country anymore!!! An example MUST BE SET," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
In December, the Pentagon announced it was launching a full command investigation into Kelly over allegations of "serious misconduct."
