United States Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on Monday that the Pentagon was taking "administrative action" against Democratic Senator Mark Kelly (pictured) over "seditious statements," adding his retired rank would be reduced.
"Six weeks ago, Senator Mark Kelly — and five other members of Congress — released a reckless and seditious video that was clearly intended to undermine good order and military discipline," Hegseth wrote on X. The loss of Kelly's retired grade will result in "a corresponding reduction in retired pay," the secretary explained.
Kelly, a retired US Navy Captain and former astronaut, issued a statement along with his Democratic colleagues, calling on the military to refuse "unlawful orders." In response, US President Donald Trump demanded that the "traitors" who urged the army to "disobey" his orders be jailed.
