Wanting to recall Mark Kelly to active duty for the express purpose of having him face a court martial over those remarks is an impressively stupid idea, especially since it comes from Hegseth, who sets the Stupid Ideas bar pretty high.

Court-martialing Sen Kelly when he's committed no crime is not justice, it's persecuting a political opponent using the Pentagon.
I simply cannot entertain the possibility of ANY courts martial convicting the senator for reminding personnel about unlawful orders.

The irony, considering Trump encouraged his followers to riot on Jan. 6th.

They're just working on being a pain in the ass for these people.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Makes me wonder if Hegseth doesn’t trust himself around little boys.

Send Trump on a trip to Italy so that he can be thrown in prison.
Italy now recognizes the crime of femicide and punishes it with life in prison

Agreed, that will never happen. This is simple persecution, doing everything they can to make the lives of their opponents difficult.
Hell of a great start to Kelly's presidential campaign, though. Anyone who didn't know about the decorated combat pilot who flew four spaceships before he nursed his wife back to health after some goon shot her in the head....
The contrast is fucking hilarious. Kelly is virtuous is every way that the mad king and the maga movement as a whole are deficient.
