Department of War Mulls Court-Martialing Senator and Inactive-Duty Officer Mark Kelly for Urging Troops to Defy the Duly-Elected Commander in Chief

Officers in the US Armed Forces are under a special obligation to respect the chain of command.

Aren't they?

The Department of War is reportedly considering recalling Kelly to active duty, just to face an court martial for insubordination (and, I guess, insurrection).

Department of War
@DeptofWar
OFFICIAL STATEMENT:
The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconduct against Captain Mark Kelly, USN (Ret.). In accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. sec. 688, and other applicable regulations, a thorough review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, which may include recall to active duty for court-martial proceedings or administrative measures. This matter will be handled in compliance with military law, ensuring due process and impartiality. Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings.

The Department of War reminds all individuals that military retirees remain subject to the UCMJ for applicable offenses, and federal laws such as 18 U.S.C. § 2387 prohibit actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces. Any violations will be addressed through appropriate legal channels.

All servicemembers are reminded that they have a legal obligation under the UCMJ to obey lawful orders and that orders are presumed to be lawful. A servicemember's personal philosophy does not justify or excuse the disobedience of an otherwise lawful order.

Pete Hegseth put an exclamation point on the DOW's statement:

Pete Hegseth
@PeteHegseth
1h
The video made by the "Seditious Six" was despicable, reckless, and false. Encouraging our warriors to ignore the orders of their Commanders undermines every aspect of "good order and discipline." Their foolish screed sows doubt and confusion -- which only puts our warriors in danger.
Five of the six individuals in that video do not fall under @DeptofWar
jurisdiction (one is CIA and four are former military but not "retired", so they are no longer subject to UCMJ). However, Mark Kelly (retired Navy Commander) is still subject to UCMJ--and he knows that.
As was announced, the Department is reviewing his statements and actions, which were addressed directly to all troops while explicitly using his rank and service affiliation--lending the appearance of authority to his words. Kelly's conduct brings discredit upon the armed forces and will be addressed appropriately.

RedState's Rusty Weiss notes that the military does permit (or oblige) troops to refuse a "manifestly" illegal order -- but also tells them they're supposed to treat all orders as presumably legal and obey them.

Mark Kelly and the other seditionists told troops to substitute their own opinion for the duly-elected Commander-in-Chief's.

The problem is that there is a vast difference between manifestly illegal orders and those whose illegality is debatable. The latter of which, refusing to obey an order one feels personally questionable, is itself illegal, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
In other words, service members can't simply say they feel immigration enforcement, for example, is unlawful and walk away, which is precisely what these Democrat lawmakers were trying to incite.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: The Department of War is considering recalling Democrat Senator Mark Kelly to active duty to be COURT-MARTIALED for telling troops to refuse President Trump’s orders

FAFO is in order!

6 This is about Crow, but it reads the same:

Green Beret Nap Time
@GBNT1952
16h
Since they seem intent upon continuously using doctrinal propaganda on the US populace, I think it’s important to highlight exactly what Crow and other Members of Congress are really doing.

Rep. Jason Crow’s post is a doctrinal example of narrative escalation within modern IO and psychological warfare doctrine.

Check out FM 3-05.301 / MISO.

By claiming that the President is threatening him with arrest and execution—a statement never actually made by Trump—Crow amplifies and inflates the narrative to its most extreme form in order to shape public perception.

This tactic, often called interpretive maximalism, takes an opponent’s words or actions and stretches them into a dire or existential threat, allowing the speaker to adopt a position of moral heroism while casting the opponent as an authoritarian danger.

When Crow doubles down on this framing, he creates what IO doctrine refers to as a self sealing narrative, where any denial or criticism becomes proof of the alleged threat.

Posted by: Kindltot at November 24, 2025 02:33 PM (rbvCR)

7 The emotionally loaded language like “upholding my oath,” “standing with our troops,” “disregard for the rule of law,” are designed to trigger identity based responses and mobilize his political base through fear, outrage, and moral urgency.

In doing all of this, Crow shifts the conversation away from what was actually said and into a battle over perceived intent, a classic PSYOP mechanism that reframes political disagreement as existential warfare.

This is not an evidentiary argument—it is a strategic influence play aimed at narrative dominance.

It is important that Americans recognize these tactics so that they can understand when propaganda is being pushed by their own government officials.

Half of this country thinks "legal" means "whatever I approve of today".

They reject the fundamental premise of America, that we are a nation of Laws, not Men.

And then they use that very line about Laws and Men as their rallying cry as they subvert the Law and inject the whims of their own Men into its hollowed out carcass.

Not according to Pussy Blitzer.

NEW: Congresswoman Lisa McClain SILENCES Wolf Blitzer after he asks: “Should members of the US military or intelligence community obey what are clearly illegal orders?”

McCLAIN: “You're asking an enlisted person for their opinion on what they think is legal or illegal. That's a pretty slippery slope. Follow your commander in chief. That's the oath that you took.”
. . . .

BLITZER: During WW2, these Nazi officers were following the chain of command, obeying illegal orders and they slaughtered Jews during the Holocaust

LISA McCLAIN: We're a long way from the Nuremberg trials and the slaughtering of Jews. If you want to talk about the slaughtering the Jews we can have that conversation another time

61 It does set up an interesting paradigm. Those not Leftists are seeing example after example of how Leftist civilian officials are immune from the law and the Constitution no matter what they do. And if these courts martial come to pass, it would appear to civilian observers that the UCMJ does have a possibility of delivering law and justice. I am not sure that is the kind of example that the old "Civics" classes back when I was in school [Paleolithic days] would like.

I would be very careful about assuming anything regarding voting or popular opinion via polling.

Basically in most political society, about 10-15 percent are engaged all the time with eating,breathing, etc. politics. About evenly divided between GOP and Democrats with a sprinking of minor party types. So most of the hype you are seeing about color revolution crap is from about 5-7 percent of the population with those who casually follow politics multiplying it to about 22-25 percent of the US population.

It is MADE to seem bigger than it ever is in popular support. But in reality, it relies on fraud, control of vote counting, selected examples of rioting, street marches, etc. by those paid,

But that might not get them out of jail free, especially under the UCMJ (which is broader than civilian criminal law). Their statements were heavily lawyered, but the intent was clear as day: Trump is giving illegal orders and you should resist them.

80 As noted by others, this is Trump strangling another Color Revolution in the crib.

The video wasn't spontaneous or a one-off:
It was Act 1 of a whole series of acts and related events they've planned out to amp "Impeachment III" up.

Next is/was pre-planted officers who anonymously claim orders are illegal.

There were/are planned a whole bunch of former-military "MAGA" social media accounts staged to roll in with agreement.

"Having an opinion" IS "I don't think the President should have ordered C, because that is illegal for him to do."

"Hey, you troops, we're going to tell you that the president is ordering illegal actions" is NOT "having an opinion". It's in violation of the law that says you can't interfere with military morale and chain of command.

145 As I have noted elsewhere (and you can see in that photo), Mark Kelly is the most prominent D.C. figure who looks like he's wearing one of those newfangled high-tech masks. They're nearly perfect, except for the unavoidable: you put extra material around the eyes, they become deep-set.

Maybe he's just a mutant freak, but I have been made aware that he has a twin who is also an astronaut, which makes this neatly testable. Twins frequently share personality traits, and the wealthy are notoriously cheap; so, if Mark has an aversion to the inanities of meet-and-greets, then his twin probably does too -- and they would almost certainly take advantage of the cost savings of hiring the same body double to cover both of them, since they're supposed to look the same anyway.

Hypothesis: That's an actor in a mask.
Null hypothesis: He's a mutant freak.
Test: Look for photos of him at events where he's seated next to his twin. If they look like normal people, then yeah, they're using a body double for their solo appearances; if they still have deep-set eyes, then it's more likely that they're mutant freaks than that they're rich people who aren't cheapskates.

I don't know if people realize this but the GOP repeatedly trying for the revenge angle and it always turns into a pathetic joke batted away effortlessly by our leftist rulers is even worse than nothing because:

1). Everybody then realizes it was just a stupid goatfvk with no real plan

2). The left has a record of being spectacularly successful at the same, throwing people in jail, dungeons pretty much, ruining people's lives, and have done so over and over again for decades with no sign of stopping and getting worse every cycle.

They should.

Nothing will change - and probably nothing CAN change - until Party Men routinely get destroyed. Court martial? Okay. But ensure there's prison time in addition to stripping him of his rank and dishonorably discharging him.

Party Men from the top to the middle *must* start going down and going down hard if there is to be any hope of change. It does not matter who it is, or the putative reason for it. Just start a scorched-earth war of destruction against *any* Party Man with moderate or better power or influence. Destroy them. I have come to believe that if you want reform, it must start with the personal destruction of those who profit - in whatever terms, be it money or power or respect or position or whatever else - from blocking reform.

Make being a Party Man absolutely terrifying. So yes. Court martial him. Destroy him totally. Then arbitrarily pick the text guy.

The recording, which lasted longer than an hour and 15 minutes, included what Garza said was a "disgusting" rant alleged to be made by Bally about his coworkers: "F***ing Indians don’t know a f***ing thing," and "Like they couldn’t think for their f***ing selves," it said in part.

Since they seem intent upon continuously using doctrinal propaganda on the US populace, I think it’s important to highlight exactly what Crow and other Members of Congress are really doing.

Rep. Jason Crow’s post is a doctrinal example of narrative escalation within modern IO and psychological warfare doctrine.

Check out FM 3-05.301 / MISO.

By claiming that the President is threatening him with arrest and execution—a statement never actually made by Trump—Crow amplifies and inflates the narrative to its most extreme form in order to shape public perception.

This tactic, often called interpretive maximalism, takes an opponent’s words or actions and stretches them into a dire or existential threat, allowing the speaker to adopt a position of moral heroism while casting the opponent as an authoritarian danger.

When Crow doubles down on this framing, he creates what IO doctrine refers to as a self sealing narrative, where any denial or criticism becomes proof of the alleged threat.

The emotionally loaded language like “upholding my oath,” “standing with our troops,” “disregard for the rule of law,” are designed to trigger

Posted by: SMOD, I grew up in a middle-class constellation at November 24, 2025 03:25 PM (RHGPo)

242 Is this something?

Rasmussen has had Trump approval at 47% for the past 5 days (they take weekend off so really the past 7 days). It got down to 44,45 the previous 2-3 weeks.

So looks like whatever support he’s lost has slowly come back and is holding steady.

Now that the Epstein nonsense is in the review mirror things should start ticking back up above 50-% which is where it was in mid October.

311 The emotionally loaded language like “upholding my oath,” “standing with our troops,” “disregard for the rule of law,” are designed to trigger

Simply bad rhetoric because there is no truth to any of the assertions, only hyperbole. See Aristotle. Military manuals are not where I would go for wisdom.

312 I remember watching the video and they said disobey "illegal orders", not just "orders."

What legal impact does that have?

Probably renders it not a crime.

Their statements disguised the obvious intention of having the rank and file military question every order they think/feel MAY be illegal according to each individual's political or moral beliefs. The military doesn't and cannot operate this way AND THESE SHITHEELS KNOW IT.

I don't know about now, but illegal orders were explicitly taught in basic training. Everyone knew what they were before ever being assigned to a unit.

There's no picking and choosing what one feels/thinks is lawful. They should already know.

It is like PBS, if the USAID didn't give them money, they would have to have spent more otherwise productive time fundraising.

315 Color revolution, there is a manual and specific steps to take to create one.

Yup. Mike Benz and others have noted that these statements are along those lines, and that the head of the Army (Driscoll, but not Ed Driscoll) has been publicly cozying up to the Vindmans since this started. So you can already see the outlines of the intended color revolution.

In that case Driscoll needs to be relieved of his duties.

316 I would have more reasonable hope in Mark Kelly's conviction than others who are not military/former military than civilians. I hope they do it.

318 Hopefully, Trump will help solidify the evidentiary side of things by posting an AI video of Kelley being executed on Truth Social--so far, plunging his malformed mushroom into the middle of jurisprudence is working out swimmingly.

Tish James is shaking in her boots. Comey as well.

We could salvage a midterm rout if someone would take the phone away from that fucking orangutan.

319 Mark Kelly looks like Gollum from Lord of the Rings, I wonder if he say's 'My precious' a lot.

320 Is it true that Mark Kelly is co-starring in the Young Frankenstein remake?

321 " Is it just possible that the Sedition Video was a PsyOp to draw Trump & Co into another partisan fight to distract them from dealing with the economy and affordability... Issues where the Republicans are vulnerable?"

Worked like a charm. But at least we got an all caps Tweet. Seems to be the MAGA red meat. Phrases like "Let's Go Brandon" and "Lock her up" got us shit electorally, but man, doe WE LOVE AN UNHINGED SHIT TALKER.

Mamdani's talking economy. Trump want to sue the BBC.

322 Gunslinger beat me to it:

"In looking at the attached photograph of Mark Kelly, had no idea that he is using Marty Feldman as a body double."
