The Congress is not "political" in the sense you intimate.

Yes, it is.

And, Congress is NOT interfering with military justice.

Given that they are applying political pressure to spike an ongoing case, in lieu of actually rewriting the UCMJ to allow LTC West's behavior to stand...they are interfering with military justice.

Congress CAN "interfere" with military justice. In case you haven't noticed, Congress makes ALL the rules. It's in Section I, of the US Constitution.
