So is the message here that the government is investigating Sen Kelly because they disagree with what he said? Soldiers.... Should?.... Follow illegal orders? Are we this deep into fascism already?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Unfortunately yes. In another post someone asked "what's to stop Trump bombing Chicago?". The only real answer is American service members all the way down the chain of command disobeying the blatantly illegal order to bomb Chicago.
At the end of it all, political power really rests in who has the biggest stick, and the biggest stick in the world is the US military.
If the military is beholden to Trump, then he has his kingship, if they honor their oath to the constitution, he doesn't.
How about we investigate the rapist in chief?
Good. Stand your fucking ground.
Dude is a retired Navy Captain.
He hardly needs to be told this.
Not just a Captain, but a god-damned American hero. He flew dozens of combat missions in Iraq, has the distinguished flying cross and more medals and awards than "punch bowl" Pete can even imagine. He went on to be a Navy test pilot and then to NASA as an astronaut and eventually mission commander of a space shuttle mission. Mark and his twin brother Scott,(also an astronaut) have performed important science in space and on earth, benefiting all man kind.
Sounds like POTUS material
Certainly more qualified than the president bone spurs
Okay, hear me out:
Comey, Kelley, Bolton, James, and the rest of DJT's persecuted political opponents form an anti-corruption party to rebuild and reform
There is no truer definition of "American Hero" than Mark Kelly. For the administration to go after him is wild. Media should be all over this one as a bullshit investigation, and I hope this blows up in their faces.
@MicroWave U.S. defense shouldn't be in the hands of ignorant psychopathic former Fox TV chickenshit talkers.
you mean the Secretary of War-mongering??
Leave our duly-elected defenders of democracy alone!
