The Department of War on Monday announced it is considering recalling Democrat Senator Mark Kelly for court-martial proceedings after he urged the military to defy President Trump’s orders.
Without offering any specifics, Senators Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), along with Democrat Reps. Maggie Goodlander (NH), Jason Crow (CO), Chris Deluzio (PA), and Chrissy Houlahan (PA) repeatedly stated, “You can refuse illegal orders,” or “You must refuse illegal orders,” in a viral video.

Last Thursday, President Trump called for the Democrat lawmakers featured in the viral video to be locked up.
Later Thursday morning President Trump said seditious behavior is punishable by death.
“SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” Trump said on Truth Social.
