Pentagon Probe Targets Sen. Mark Kelly’s ‘Illegal Orders’ Video, Navy Review Ordered

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Navy to review Senator Mark Kelly’s video encouraging troops to disobey illegal orders, calling it a politically charged challenge to military discipline and protocol. The Pentagon’s investigation could result in Kelly’s recall to active duty and court-martial for alleged misconduct. Hegseth also criticized Kelly for incorrectly wearing his military medals. Kelly responded by denouncing the probe as an intimidation tactic aimed at silencing constitutional accountability. The Navy’s findings are due by December 10, intensifying tensions between the Pentagon and the senator.
