Bluff and intimidation by the Department of Defense, newly re-named the Department of War, to intimidate US Senator Mark Kelly as well as like-minded observers and critics into silence and a go-along-to-get-along political posture with the MAGA-Trump presidential administration that is on a warmongering footing and path.
(Quote, Senator Mark Kelly@SenMarkKelly:
"When I was 22 years old, I was commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. I upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school for space")
US armed forces Uniform Code of Military Conduct and Justice and training prescribe and instruct that armed forces personnel of all ranks have the right and duty to refuse to comply with and carry out unlawful, or illegal, orders from whomever, and upon their induction into military service they each and all vocally swear an oath of allegiance to protect and defend (uphold and preserve) the US Constitution, the charter and prescriptive embodiment of the Constitutional Bill of Rights Republic form and system of government and democracy of the USA. Their military and civilian bosses and peers and their parents, siblings, friends, spouses, children, girlfriends or boyfriends, teachers, clergy, intellectual, moral and spiritual advisers, confidants, media influence sources and government officials of every kind and strangers, etc., have the unalienable First Amendment right of freedom of speech, that is not legally, as well as explicitly, seditious, and can legally and most honorably advise or exhort them to comply with their said military right and duty, and oath of service, without any adverse government or other authority meted out consequence, which is not and cannot be seditious since it is military law and military enforced lawful procedure. US Constitutionally, only the bicameral US Congress can legislatively write (originate) and make law; not, emphatically, the US president nor the courts of the judiciary, although the courts can make legally binding and enforceable rulings of compliance and noncompliance with and of violations of US Constitutional and Congressional statutory law and on conflicts and ambiguities within and between these bodies of law, but always in favor of the US Constitution, the supreme law of the USA, in conflicts between US Constitutional and Congressional statutory law. The US president cannot abolish or lawfully violate and/or override the Uniform Code of Military [Conduct and] Justice, but as the top official of the US armed forces and thereby a member of them all, is also fully subject and accountable to this body of law. Neither military nor civilian courts can lawfully criminally convict a soldier or any number of soldiers for refusing to comply with an unlawful order nor can anyone whomever be lawfully criminally convicted for counseling or exhorting any soldier or number of soldiers to refuse to comply with an unlawful order from whomever.
