Democrat Senator Mark Kelly Faces Court-Martial After Department of War Launches Review of Allegations of Misconduct

[Zincwarrior]

Tell us how an illegal order would filter down from JCS on down to the front line without ever being questioned for it's legality.

Having never served himself, having avoided service during RVN, and having a huge venal ego and vast ignorance, Trumpanyahu is not even aware he can give illegitimate orders.

So with that said, there never have been any 'illegitimate' orders and the Seditious Six are full of shit.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Had the Democrats not spent the last ten years ginning up any kind of prosecution they could against Trump AND his supporters, throwing everything against the wall and praying fervently that something would finally stick, I would say that of course you cannot prosecute a federal lawmaker for advising service people to follow the law.

But, I'm no lawyer, so if the Trump administrations legal advisers say this prosecution could work, why not?

They weren't approved from the top of the command, they were soldiers violating UCMJ.

Mark Kelly inadvertently destroyed himself trying that garbage

I doubt anything will actually happen to the pos but he's exposed

 

[Zincwarrior]

Hillary didn't suffer one bit.

Protected by the swamp.

Funny how that works.

Hillary wasn't in the military. Fail Harder.

Of course Trump was a draft dodger too.

 

[Orangecat]

It’s for potential illegal orders due the recent domestic deployments and illegal attacks on suspected drug boats.

That’s exactly why the dims released that statement, “potential” being the relevant word there. It’s a childishly transparent attempt to sow division in the troops being deployed by Trump to protect federal assets and employees in sanctuary cities.

Hillary wasn't in the military. Fail Harder.

Of course Trump was a draft dodger too.

Along with Biden and Clinton....

He is now a legitimate Presidential candidate.

Along with Biden and Clinton....

Exactly.

So was Biden and Clinton, there's that

 

[Missouri_Mike]

If Trump wasn't a politician, he'd currently be serving time in a New York State Prison for felony business fraud...

and

Be undergoing trial in federal court for espionage.

But there ya go.

WW

If he wasn’t a politician, specifically a Republican one, the Dems would never have drummed up those ridiculous charges.

Um.... what?

 

[dudmuck]

No -

Everyone involved said that they knew of no illegal order.

Just orders that hurt their feelers.

the key word is potential.

because federal judges have already ruled that domestic troop deployments, such as those in Los Angeles and Portland violated law.

Then on the high seas, the attacks on boats have violated UNCLOS, united nations convention law of the sea, and article 2(4) of UN charter on prohibition of the use of force, and international human rights law, and perhaps some environmental laws.

in light of all this, its an increased possibility of the troops themselves violating such laws.

Tell me when that happens. Trump was impeached a second time while still in office. Further impeachment is not a criminal charge.

His trial ended on Feb 13, 2021. The autopen's term had already started.

They weren't approved from the top of the command, they were soldiers violating UCMJ.

And? The whole point of his statement is that they can disobey illegal orders. Illegal from the President, or your commander.
