Hegseth Issues Censure of Mark Kelly: Deep Kimchee

[JLW]

There goes the Trumpist circle jerk again.

Hegseth said the same thing as Kelly.



By hey Trumpers, Kelly thanks you for catapulting him to the top of Democratic presidential contenders in 2028.

 

[d0gbreath]

Well, that's all great, but this guy is a RETIRED USN Captain.
Further, he committed a fraudulent criminal act.

"As per AP: Hegseth said that the censure was “a necessary process step” to proceedings that could result in a demotion from Kelly's retired rank of captain in the U.S. Navy....The Pentagon’s statement cited a federal law that allows retired service members to be recalled to active duty on orders of the defense secretary for possible court-martial or other"

LOL! So they are going through all of this convoluted bullshit, reactivating him, court martials, blah blah blah, instead of prosecuting him under fraud charges?

FFS man...If wasting fkn time and money was an art the government would be Da Vinci.

You seem smart enough to know why they're not prosecuting him under fraud charges.

Well why the F not?
You and I would be.
He fkn special?
That's my point.

What fraud did Senator Kelly commit?

Well, if they have enough to reactivate him to active duty and court-martial him, they've got enough to charge him in a civilian court of law.
So stop playing dumb...cause you are.

Hegseth said it to the brass at the pentagon, the guys who know which orders are legal or illegal.
The "Seditious Six" broadcast their "illegal order" warning to everyone, most of which are not able to distinguish between legal or illegal orders, which hurts the chain of command.
A very big difference in the intended audience.

I'm smart enough to know that you did not answer my question. Deflection doesn't work on me.

Kelly is a traitor, he will no doubt flee to china, his masters, so that he doesn't get sent to prison.

 

[Winco]

Then so is Hegseth for saying the EXACT same thing years earlier.

Kelly is a Chinese stooge you ******* retard. THAT is what makes him a traitor.

Sheesh you leftists are stupid.

What fraud did Senator Kelly commit?

Smurfing or structuring is a form of financial fraud. It is a criminal offense. What did Mr. Kelly structure? $40M? If I read correctly?
That is what he is suspected of. So yes, it's fraud. However, our entire system is a ruse and a fraud.

I hear he is not really bald. Fraud!

Thanks, and a good answer. I had to look those up. If there is proof that he did that, he should be charged. Smurfs have an uncanny ability to burn receipts, so bringing hard evidence into court won't be easy. I agree with your last statement. We're a nation of shysters. Integrity is dead.

Hegseth v Kelly

Hegseth's military is better than Kelly's would be.

 

[22lcidw]

Hegseth like Trump is just another dishonest tool, when a convicted rapist, draft dodger is elected president incompetent idiots follow. Nothing new here.

Pete Hegseth grossly under qualified for secretary of defense

An Open Book

Viet Nam still exists. Lyndon Johnson was a monster warmonger and did a little time in the military as a lark for his own ambitions. He had many connections for the short time he was in during WW2. He lived the life of Riley. President Clinton and President Joe were draft dodgers.

Punish those who speak out -- even when what they say is accurate and legal -- and intimidate those who were thinking about it.

 

[Conservative from Georgia]

The first step in a recall and court martial?

Insubordination?...Disrupting "good order"?...Looks like the ***** footing around is pretty much over.

Hegseth said that the censure was “a necessary process step” to proceedings that could result in a demotion from Kelly’s retired rank of captain in the U.S. Navy.

The move comes more than a month after Kelly participated in a video with five other Democratic lawmakers in which they called on troops to defy “illegal orders.”

The predictable counter-suit...Big fat hairy deal.

When you're under UCMJ, there are no constitutional rights...It's in the contract.
