A political firestorm erupted this week after the Defense Department said it was reviewing “serious allegations of misconduct” against Sen. Mark Kelly, following a video in which he and other Democratic veterans reminded service members they must refuse illegal orders. The inquiry — announced just hours after President Trump called the video “seditious” — raised alarms about safety, separation of powers, and whether a retired officer serving in Congress can be hauled before a military court. Kelly pushed back sharply, calling the move an intimidation tactic as constitutional scholars weighed in on the broad protections lawmakers hold. Jennifer Shutt with News From The States has the full story.
