Sen. Mark Kelly predicts Hegseth will 'take a hike' on court martial

TUCSON — Sen. Mark Kelly scoffed at the possibility of facing a court martial as he ridiculed President Donald Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth as unserious people.

Just days before the Dec. 10 deadline for the Navy’s secretary to report to Hegseth on any military case against Kelly for taking part in a video Trump has labeled “seditious,” the Arizona Democrat said he hasn’t heard from the Pentagon, and nothing substantive from the FBI.

“We got something from the FBI. We got one thing. It didn’t even have a point of contact on it,” he said Dec. 5 after a town hall event in Tucson. “That’s how unprofessional this (Justice Department) has become.”

The FBI is pressing its domestic terrorism investigators to open a probe against the Democrats who took part in a Nov. 18 video that urged members of the military to refuse illegal orders, Bloomberg Law reported. The FBI did not respond to a request for comment.

Political speech is domestic terrorism? This will fall apart like every other prosecution by the Trump clown entourage.

Going after a national hero like Sen. Kelly was not a very smart move, but then again, neither Flim Flam Man nor Kegsbreath aren't known for being smart.
