Mark Kelly’s ‘Sedition’ Scandal Deepens After New Development

Sen. Mark Kelly is taking political flak at point-blank range after the Pentagon opened a formal investigation into his role in a video urging military and intelligence personnel to disobey “illegal orders” from the Trump administration.

Kelly’s “seditious” call is now dragging an old China controversy back into the spotlight.

The retired Navy captain and Arizona Democrat is one of six lawmakers under review after appearing in the November video, which directly addresses active-duty troops and tells them to resist commands they believe cross constitutional lines. The message includes the stark warning, “Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth blasted the stunt, saying, “It brings discredit upon the armed forces and will be addressed appropriately.” Investigators are weighing whether the lawmakers violated the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which still applies to retired service members.

Trump exploded on Truth Social in response, labeling the group “TRAITORS” and reposting a declaration that they are engaging in “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH.” While the press dismissed the comments as typical Trump showmanship, the uproar inside the military community was far more serious, as any suggestion of ignoring orders is treated as radioactive.

We know that Bondi will drop the ball on this, Hegseth better not.
