Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., appeared on MS NOW's "The Rachel Maddow Show" on Monday, where he responded to the Pentagon's announcement that it has opened a formal review into allegations of misconduct over a video calling on service members to "refuse illegal orders."
On Monday, the Pentagon announced its investigation into Kelly, a retired Navy captain, and said it may call the senator back to active duty to face court-martial proceedings or other administrative actions under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
When asked by Maddow about the Pentagon's investigation, Kelly said, "Well, Rachel, I said something that was pretty simple and non-controversial, and that was that members of the military should follow the law. And in response to that, Donald Trump said, I should be executed, I should be hanged. I should be prosecuted."

In Arizona, many know him by the initials “PH”
pecker head

Neither Congress or any of its members are in the military chain of command.
These persons can do absolutely NOTHING to any service member who follows an “illegal order”, that is covered under the UMCJ.
They cannot even refer or bring a charge against any member of the US military for any action.
Farts in a hurricane, they.
Just remind him that he supported abandoning astronauts for over a year for politically convenient reasons.
Deep State Robot Boy
Shut up boy. You’re a phony POS. You were born intimidated. I hope they lock your NAVY *** up in the brig. Jerk.
It’s not a threat dipshit....it’s a promise.
I hope Pete strips this guy of everything possible.
OOO kelly talking to tough madcow. a real hero
You serve Deep State, Kelly.
You’ve already shown yourself to be spineless.
What intimidation? At this point, it's not a threat. It's a fact that you need to be court martialed.
You danced to the music, now you need to pay the price for participating in sedition.
I have to say, I have been amazed to see some random acts of journalism this weekend. They kept asking “give us examples of illegal orders”. None of this gang of corksuckers could.
See, we know abt they mean by illegal.
Illegal = anything a democrat disagrees with.
They can refer ‘crimes’ to a friendly DOJ down the line. Their biggest issue is the destruction of ‘good order and discipline’ whereby people of some status encourage servicemembers to ignore orders they don’t like. Of course these shitbirds won’t face the consequences if a servicemember does listen to them, he/she will be holding the bag themselves. I’d hang them all.
Say something outrageous and completely uncalled for, respond “I will not be intimidated!” when the scrutiny comes as though he’s a victim...
“I’m an astronaut dang it”
Kelly is running with Madcow now? Anybody seen Gabby lately? Or did the idiot just take her job and dump her. I haven’t seen her around.
No Mark, you implied that Trump was issuing illegal orders.
How about incarcerated, a-hole?
I give default respect to veterans unless they have done something that compels me to withhold it.
Every person in that heinous video has forfeited that default respect from me.
Especially him.
