Hegseth’s Mockery of Kelly’s Military Service Draws Criticism
The Department of War has initiated an investigation into Senator Mark Kelly, a retired Navy captain, citing serious allegations of misconduct which could lead to recall to active duty. This announcement came after Kelly and other Democratic lawmakers released a video advising service members to refuse illegal orders, a move which Donald Trump labeled as “seditious”. Responding to the investigation, Kelly posted an image of his uniform, prompting Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to criticize the uniform’s display. Hegseth stated the Senator’s medals were displayed incorrectly and that he “intentionally undercut good order & discipline.”
