Donald Trump threatened a group of Democratic veterans who urged military service members to disobey illegal orders. The president even promoted their executions. Now, one of the Democratic veterans, Sen. Mark Kelly, has issued a brutal response.

Sen. Mark Kelly has been on the front lines for the group of Democratic veterans against Donald Trump, urging military service members to disobey illegal orders the president has given. Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth responded, and the Pentagon soon after began an investigation over possible breaches of military law.

In a statement, the Pentagon claimed that Kelly’s statements interfered with the “loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces,” citing federal law that prohibits such actions.

“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,” the statement read.

Donald Trump took to social media and lashed out against Sen. Mark Kelly and the other lawmakers, accusing them of “seditious behavior.” In a shocking development, Trump even promoted calls for their executions, a statement he later said wasn’t a death threat.

“It’s called SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL,” the president wrote, later adding, “Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL. Their words cannot be allowed to stand – We won’t have a Country anymore!!! An example MUST BE SET. President DJT.”

Sen. Mark Kelly issues brutal response to Donald Trump
Now, the Arizona Senator has responded. During a press conference, Kelly laid bare his lifetime of service to the US, comparing it to Trump’s public record.

“In 1991, when Donald Trump was driving the Taj Mahal Casino into bankruptcy, I was getting shot at over Iraq and Kuwait. In 2001, after Donald Trump said that the collapse of the Twin Towers meant he now owned the tallest skyscraper in Manhattan, I was carrying flags honoring 9/11 victims into space on a rocket ship,” Kelly said.

“In 2003, when Donald Trump was writing birthday greetings to the monster Jeffrey Epstein, I was the first on the scene to recover the bodies of my fellow astronauts who died when Space Shuttle Columbia exploded. In 2011, when Trump was hosting a reality show and pushing conspiracies against President Barack Obama, I was sitting next to my wife’s hospital bed as she recovered from a gunshot to the head.”

“Bully his opponents into silence”
Mark Kelly continued by claiming that the president is bullying his opponents until they are silenced.

“Throughout his entire career—in business, reality TV, and politics—Donald Trump has had one and only one play: bully his opponents into silence. He did it as a failed casino owner who bankrupted his properties and screwed over his contractors. He did it as a reality TV host known for firing people. And he has done it as a President who tries every day to intimidate people, with no regard for the rights or well-being of the American people,” he said.
