Pete Hegseth cuts the pension and strips Senator Mark Kelly of his military rank, because he — a democrat— had the audacity to disagree with the Trump regime.

@randahl and more specifically, the rights and duties of the parliament members, which very importantly are outside any scope of the Administration, or the military.

@randahl
In contrast, Hegseth has ordered criminal acts. As has RFK jr, Vance and Trump. Others too.
The entire top tier of Trump administration should tried, after closure of the Supreme Court of USA, which is now not fit for purpose.

@randahl
A clear message has been sent to US military members, that maga does not have your back. I hope the members now act appropriately.

@randahl
Reminder: ‘Department of War’ and ‘Secretary of War’ are stupid, made-up titles that have no basis in fact or legality.

bob_zim@infosec.exchange

@hehemrin @randahl That’s because there is no “Secretary of War” position in the US government, and no “Department of War” for such a secretary to lead. Renaming the Department of Defense takes an act of Congress, which has not happened.

I personally think “Department of Defense” is euphemistic, and “Department of War” would be more honest, but that’s not how it’s currently named.

@randahl are you surprised or something? See the state funded employees and students organized to vote for Yanukovosh at gunpoint, called adminresurs!

helgi@101010.pl

@randahl but did they violate the 1st, like is there a law from the Congress that infringed on that senator's right to confront the POTUS? No! He has his right. And sec. Hegseth has authority, to cut his pension, such law exists I guess.

Why do I get the feeling any attorney is gonna reverse this?

@randahl Demigods,
2 bit grifters and snake oil salesmen have the corporate by their ass. Their insurrections, racketeering, regime changes and genocides have been normalised. All so they can increase their wealth with which to buy more power. Giving those crusty clowns and their spawn the right to steal and destroy the people’s resources by taking their taxes has expanded their creep show. They would die without their oligarchs and plutocrats finance together with their news and doublespeak. Otherwise the many could flourish and their wellbeing would be secure. Without the democratic representation of diverse interests they will get their Armageddon and their Apocalypse! #BenefitCheatBillionaires #PsychopathicNarcissists #Demigods #TheWarOnDemocracy #EcocideEmpire #CorporateSoveigntyIsEvil #WW3 #CowardsNotStrongMen #EmpiresTerror #SustainableRights #CapitalIsNotARight #FreedomIsARightForDiverseInterests #TheWarOnLifeAndFreedom #DRDI #TheFederation

@Helgi @randahl Don't fall for the old "It only violates the first amendment if Congress does it" canard. Decades of judicial precedent says that plenty of other actions by government entities can be violations of the first amendment outside of "a law from Congress".

helgi@101010.pl

@bishop6 @randahl so the senator said exactly that before having plans to sue the Department. Hegseth already played tricks with jammers for our F-16s that the US didn't even provide, then APKWS fuses he diverted, he deserves a good lawsuit against him!

@randahl @pluralistic Fascist be fascist.

xs4me2@mastodon.social

@randahl

Fascism is taking over…

Hegseth was removed form the National Guard because of his far right opinions…
It is why Trump hired him…

rolfgls@mastodon.nl

@randahl
Mark Kelly for president?

cav@infosec.exchange

@randahl this is just the start I believe. They'll come after more who disagree with Trump (like me) and speak out.

I wonder if he'll strip our disability money too? Time will tell

@randahl
Mark Keyyl should take that drunken basturd to court.

dankmane@mastodon.social

@randahl

Major Pete finally getting the power trip he could never earn on his own.

wyatt_h_knott@vermont.masto.host

@randahl It won't stand. Kelly will sue and win, and Hegseth will, once again, end up with white goo all over his face.

gimulnautti@mastodon.green

@randahl I think it’s pretty clear that Hegseth demands loyalty to a man, not to a constitution.

The winds of history are blowing hard on this one!
