Democratic Senator Mark Kelly is suing the Pentagon over attempts to punish him. The lawsuit comes a week after Defense Secretary Hegseth censured Kelly over his participation in a video that called on troops to resist unlawful orders. Kelly claims the Trump administration is trampling on his constitutional rights to free speech. The Pentagon’s action could result in a demotion from Kelly’s retired rank of captain and subsequent reduction in retirement pay. The suit asks the court to rule that the censure letter and any other punishments against the senator are “unlawful and unconstitutional.”
