Senator Kelly & his fellow veterans are American patriots.
Their video simply reiterated the Uniform Code of Military Justice's requirement to only carry out LAWFUL orders.
Not surprising that Secretary Talk Show Host doesn't know that.

Israel has held 16-year-old American, Mohammed Ibrahim, without trial, for 9 months.
He has been denied contact with family & his health is deteriorating. He says he falsely confessed to throwing a rock after being beaten.
America needs to secure his release NOW.
$1 of every $13 poured into the 2024 elections came from the country's 100 richest people.
Trump is letting billionaires run the show and they want to further rig the system for themselves, against working people.
It time to End Citizens United. Pass campaign finance reform. Empower the PEOPLE.
Don't forget: President Trump relentlessly attacked @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & did everything to stop his win.
It's funny how his tune changed when confronted with Mamdani’s actual focus on affordability — something Trump claims to care about.
Let this be a lesson: Always stand up to a bully.
We all want to see peace in Ukraine, most of all the Ukrainian people.
But blackmailing innocent Ukrainians to appease Putin doesn’t promote peace — it only enables Russia’s aggression.
It is repulsive that this is coming from an American president.
This is extremely dangerous.
From the attempts on his own life to the murders of Speaker Hortman & Charlie Kirk, this isn’t hard. You either condemn all of it or none of it.
I don’t want to hear a single word about political violence from Republicans until they condemn this language.
Today, Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will visit the White House as he prepares to take office with a simple goal: making sure working people can afford to live where they work.
You may be shocked to find out his plan doesn’t include giant tax cuts for corporations & billionaires.
The U.S. has the leverage to help stop the RSF's atrocities in Sudan, RIGHT NOW. But to do that we have to use it.
Today, Republicans blocked my effort to pass legislation to suspend arms sales to the UAE until we can verify they are no longer arming the genocidal RSF. Shameful.
The Trump Admin will fire you for having a Pride flag on your desk but downplays & normalizes swastikas & nooses?
Over 400,000 Americans died fighting Nazism. Hundreds of thousands died fighting slavery & Jim Crow.
This is a slap in the face to every American who died to defeat bigoted ideologies.
Must be a total coincidence this announcement came the day after these guys were seen at Trump’s ritzy dinner party.
Trump doesn’t have this authority. States are filling the void left by the federal govt’s failure to create an accountability structure for AI companies.
Yesterday, President Trump tried to justify the murder of Jamal Khashoggi by saying "things happen."
Today, Senate Republicans blocked a resolution that condemned his murder.
The Republican party's refusal to stand up for a free & fair press endangers journalists worldwide.
Melissa Tran came here on a Green Card at age 11.
She's since raised 4 kids, started a business, & is a beloved member of the Hagerstown community.
Trump is deporting her, despite a judge saying she poses no threat.
Is she the "worst of the worst"? Do you feel safer yet?
Trump and Congressional Republicans have a little over a month to diffuse the health care time bomb they left ticking on American families.
If these tax credits expire, it will spike health care costs for everyone — whether you’re on the ACA or not.
Trump’s making it easier for polluters to profit from poisoning waterways like the Chesapeake Bay.
A healthy Bay is an economic & environmental lifeline for Maryland & clean waterways are vital to communities around the U.S.
But in Trump-world, his big money pals always come first.
With Senate approval of the bill to release the Epstein Files, President Trump must sign it into law, without delay.
It’s past time for the American people to see the FULL truth.
It is shameful that it took so long.
First Trump allowed your premiums to skyrocket & now he wants medical bills to haunt you everywhere you go. Letting sickness crush people’s credit scores is exploitative & cruel.
This is what it looks like when you put corporate debt collectors, not working people, first.
Republicans no longer have any excuse to delay justice.
Senator Thune must bring this bill to a vote, IMMEDIATELY
The victims of Epstein's abuse & the American people deserve transparency.
This is a direct attack on our children & our future.
At a time when we need to be doing more to prepare our kids to compete in the global economy, Trump is going after the agency that strengthens American education. Once again, he's helping our adversaries & competitors.
Watch what they do, not what they say. Republicans say they care about personal responsibility, but when it comes to corporations…
This repeal takes money out of your pocket, money that you are owed if airlines mess up & cause extended delays.
How much more blatant can they be?
Right now, tens of millions of working families are trying to work out how they’re going to pay for their skyrocketing ACA premiums.
The time bomb is still ticking and Republicans are doing nothing to diffuse it — we need to act now.
