      Hegseth is nothing but another right-wing „alpha male“ who is actually just a scared coward overcompensating for their inability to adapt to changing societal growth.

      This is a man who was damn near first on scene at the crash site of Columbia. That’s of sense of courage that I would bet few people have.

      Kelly is going to be fine.

      >“Secretary Hegseth’s tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President’s posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death,” Kelly said in a statement accompanied by a photo of a Navy uniform laden with medals, including two Distinguished Flying Crosses.

      >“If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won’t work,” he continued. “I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution.”

      When I first saw the Illegal Orders video….. 2 things came to me: OMG they went and poked the bear! And the Nuremberg Trials. Please send your support to Kelly, let your representatives know you believe Trumps reaction is not only wrong but alarming. Every congressperson and senator, Republican and Democrat, need to hear from their constituents about these events. Thank you.

      This seems like the kind of egregrious misstep that could really backfire on the Trump administration.

      imo he’s not scared because he knows that if the state goes all in and does prosecute him with this BS, it only proves that the US is dead.

      I’d release the following statement.

      „Both military members and cabinet members should refuse illegal and unconstitutional orders as per the military code and US constitution.“

      What a waste of taxpayer dollars – if the pentagon does investigate, all they will find is that he re-stated content found in the UCMJ.

      Ironic that simply informing service members of the regulations they are legally responsible for adhering to is considered a crime worthy of death by this administration.

      It would be like investigating and calling for the death of a person who said “the law says you can’t murder people, so don’t murder”. **Encouraging people to follow the law is not a crime.**

      This Pete Hegseth fuckery may end up in the unintended consequence of a President Kelly come 28′. Kelly being astute knows this. Secretary of Whiskey Hegseth not so much.

      Trump and his crayon munching cronies have finally picked a fight with someone who will steadfastly stand up to him.

      This witch hunt will indeed awaken Senator Kelly’s inner fire dragon.

    16. Ridergal on

      If Kelly does get court martialled (unlikely), he should demand it be filmed and released. Retired military leaders will be lined up trying to help him. Kelly explaining why troops are required to follow lawful orders will be a masterclass in the „Nuremberg defense“.

    18. sunny_suburbia on

      There is no bottom. To think a POS like Kegs would even have an opinion about a man who is the definition of war hero.

      I fucking hate people.

    19. theClumsy1 on

      Good luck attempting to discredit Kelly.

      He is the closest thing we got at the moment of an American Hero

    20. Naive_Confidence7297 on

      Unlike all these pathetic man baby Republicans boys. Kelly is an actual man. So fuck off pedo lovers

    21. VitalMonkey on

      Hegseth better be careful who he picks fights with. If he goes up against actual heroes, he’s gonna lose badly.

    22. moonwalkerfilms on

      GOOD. It’s about time some Dems grew a fucking spine and stopped cowering to these antics. 

    23. M00nch1ld3 on

      There’s absolutely nothing to „investigate“ so yeah.

      It is just the truth that soldiers shouldn’t obey illegal orders, and that they can NOT obey illegal orders. That shouldn’t be controversial.

      The fact that in this regime, it IS controversial should give everyone pause. It means the regime WANTS the troops to obey illegal orders.

    24. DarthHiccups on

      After today’s Comey ruling, Kelly has nothing to worry about. TBF, he never did. They’re ***that*** incompetent.

    26. BenNitzevet on

      Hegseth plays at being fearless; Kelly is the real deal. Anyone who goes along with this charade should be ashamed.

    27. faluty on

      Can’t believe this is their response to a seasoned veteran like Mark Kelley… but then again, we’re talking a party and a leader who once insulted John McCain because Trump likes „people who weren’t captured.“

    28. gideon513 on

      Dude’s blasted off this planet into space strapped to a rocket. I don’t think much scares him.

    29. dreaganusaf on

      As opposed to 9 year Army Guard Maj Kegsbreath, Capt Kelly is a hero and served honorably unlike the former who had to leave service.

    31. Eponack on

      He told them they didn’t have to follow orders that are against The Constitution, so are they admitting that they give illegal orders?

    33. XAgentNovemberX on

      So, Mark Kelly, who would have been the equivalent of a Colonel in Hegseths branch of the military, is effectively being questioned and investigated by an individual of far lower rank. Didn’t this same thing happen in a few good men? What happened there? Was there an implication of reprimand when a lower rank questions an officer of much higher rank?

    34. dread_pirate_wesley on

      “ I’m heavily decorated career military. You’re a fucking Fox news reporter. Bring it. “ – Kelly to Kegbreath, probably.

    35. Beer-Me on

      If we ever get out of this, I really look forward to seeing Hegseth being recalled back to service and court-martialed for his actions as SecDef.

    36. Minimum-Dare301 on

      Imagine that reminding our soldiers of their constitutional duty is considered treason.

    38. Jerk182 on

      It would be a true military leader and hero against an alcoholic, jelly-haired idiot.

    40. GardenPeep on

      Holy cow: the guy’s not just a retired astronaut but he also knows how to land fighters on aircraft carriers. His wife was almost assassinated. This is the last person the Regime should be trying to intimidate. If they court-martial him it’ll be a Very Bad Look for them.

    41. Some-One-Two on

      As someone who has served, I hope this ends with Kelly telling Hegseth how to wipe. And I’m confused at this point, as to why we continue to allow this administration to destroy honor with their hissy fits.

    42. jsong123 on

      Trump walked into a trap. Check out Senator Ruben Gallego’s comments to Hegseth.

    43. yorapissa on

      Trump and Hegseth don’t together amount to as much as a pimple on this guys arse.
